Living on the Edge: The Sources of Creativity for Security Wizards and Hackers

Presented at Notacon 2 (2005), April 8, 2005, 8 p.m. (120 minutes)

Creativity can not be commanded but there are plenty of things we can do that make it much more likely that it will occur. Thieme is arguably a pretty creative guy and old enough to have a clue as to how he got that way. Some of it can't be helped but a lot of t can, and that's the part he illuminates for hackers.
