About this listen
In this lively episode of Campus Conversations, host Laya Prada teams up with Lavanya and Sujith to explore the rebellious, creative, slightly chaotic world of the early hacker culture — inspired by Steven Levy's iconic book Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution.
From Wozniak's playful tech experiments to Stallman's loud open-source ideals, this episode explores how curiosity and a little chaos shaped modern computing — and how the same spirit lives in every B.Tech. student juggling crash loops, hackathons, and AI models that only work at 2 AM.
This episode is a reminder that innovation isn't born in perfect labs — it grows in hostel rooms, hackathons, lab benches, and canteens with terrible Wi-Fi. It's messy. It's tiring. It's exciting. And sometimes… it's hilarious.
Hack, fail, laugh, learn, create — and maybe get some sleep afterward.
Tune in and embrace the hacker spirit that's still alive in all of us.
