  Hacker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In hacker culture, a hacker is a person who has attained a certain social status and is recognized among members of the culture for commitment to the culture's values and a certain amount of technical knowledge.
This use of hacker as intruder (frequent in the media) generally has a strong negative connotation, and is disparaged and discouraged within the computer community, resulting in the modern Hacker definition controversy.
Hackers who have the ability to write circuit-level code, device drivers, firmware, low-level networking, (and even more impressively, using these techniques to make devices do things outside of their spec sheets), are typically in very high regard among hacker communities.

 Wark, A Hacker Manifesto
Hackers come piecemeal to struggle against the particular forms in which abstraction is commodified and made into the private property of the vectoralist class.
Hackers come as a class to recognise their class interest is best expressed through the struggle to free the production of abstraction not just from the particular fetters of this or that form of property, but to abstract the form of property itself.
The hacker class is the class with the capacity to create not only new kinds of object and subject in the world, not only new kinds of property form in which they may be represented, but new kinds of relation beyond the property form.

 Hacker Manifesto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Conscience of a Hacker (also known as The Hacker Manifesto) is a small essay written January 8, 1986 by a hacker who went by the handle (or pseudonym) of The Mentor (born Loyd Blankenship).
It is considered a cornerstone of hacker culture, and it gives some insight into the psychology of early hackers.
The Manifesto states that hackers choose to hack because it is a way for them to learn, and because they are often frustrated and bored in school.

The hacker may be duped by the blandishments of prestige and put virtuality in the service of conformity, professional elitism in place of class experience, and depart from the emergent culture of the hacker class.
Hacker history introduces the productive classes to the product of their own action, which is otherwise presented — not just by the ruling version of history but by the ruling class itself in all its actions — as a thing apart.
For the hacker, the tragedy of the former is to be neglected, of the latter, not to be neglected.

Both workers and hackers have an interest in a meritocratic educational apparatus, in which educational resources are allocated on the basis of: to each according to their needs, from each according to their abilities.
Hacker history introduces the productive classes to the product of their own action, which is otherwise presented -- not just by the ruling version of history but by the ruling class itself in all its actions -- as a thing apart.
Hackers, like farmers and workers before them, find that their ownership of the immediate tools of production is compromised both by the market power of the possessing class confronting them, but also by the influence that class can have over the state's definition of the representations of property.

 Mondays: Monday Night 05.23.05 -- McKenzie Wark -- Talk/Discussion -- "The Hacker Manifesto"
The manifesto, is an "old trick" so to speak, a tool for agitation, a genre of questioning the present, positing instead hyper-politicized protagonists, revolutionaries who plot out a course for change through a declaration of demands, principles, or intentions released to a public.
A hacker manifesto: Not the only manifesto, as it is in the nature of the hacker to differ from others, to differ even from oneself, over time.
Hackers come to struggle against the particular forms in which abstraction is commodified and turned into the private property of the vectoralist class.

Hackers must sell their capacity for abstraction to a class that owns the means of production, the vectoralist class -- the emergent ruling class of our time.
The time is past due when hackers must come together with all of the producing classes of the world -- to liberate productive and inventive resources from the myth of scarcity.
Through the application of abstraction, the hacker class produces the possibility of production, the possibility of making something of and with the world -- and of living off the surplus produced by the application of abstraction to nature -- to any nature.

 village voice > books > McKenzie Wark's A Hacker Manifesto by Hua Hsu
Type hello to the nascent "hacker class," McKenzie Wark's loose confederation of fixers, file sharers, inventors, shut-ins, philosophers, programmers, and pirates—"Geeks and freaks," he cracks in a rare show of levity.
The manifesto is a fascinating genre that usually mainlines passion at the cost of clarity, but Wark suffers the opposite problem.
His hackers care less about the means of production than the ideas spurring that production, so he assigns ultimate blame to the "vectoralist class" intent on controlling, then commodifying, hacked information.

 Amazon.com: A Hacker Manifesto: , : Books: McKenzie Wark   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
McKenzie Wark's 'A Hacker Manifesto' is a major intervention in this arena, one that suggests new ways of asking (and answering) 'the property question.' Wark's manifesto is beautifully written in spare, elegant prose of rare economy.
Instead, Hacker Manifesto offers a sophisticated framework for understanding the historical potential latent within an emerging class: the hacker class - needed by the "vectorialist class" (informational entrepreneurs) to do their sterile dirty work, but not completely controlled by them either.
A Hacker Manifesto is the Big Picture of not only where we are in the "information age," but where we're going as well.

 The Pinocchio Theory » Blog Archive » A Hacker Manifesto
McKenzie Wark’s A Hacker Manifesto is a remarkable and beautiful book: cogent, radical, and exhilarating, a politico-aesthetic call to arms for the digital age.
Wark calls the information producers “hackers,” and refers to the owners/expropriators of information as “the vectorialist class” (since “information” travels along “vectors” as it is reproduced and transmitted from place to place).
A Hacker Manifesto is already, in itself, such an act of further abstraction; it charts a path from already-existing forms of resistance and creation to a more generalized (more abstract) mode of action.

 [Cddc] The Hacker Manifesto
The Hacker Manifesto by McKenzie Wark "[Wark's] ambitious A Hacker Manifesto Googles for signs of hope in this cyber-global- corporate-brute world of ours, and he fixes on the hackers, macro-savvy visionaries from all fields who 'hack' the relationships and meanings the rest of us take for granted.
A Hacker Manifesto deftly defines the fraught territory between the ever more strident demands by drug and media companies for protection of their patents and copyrights and the pervasive popular culture of file sharing and pirating.
This vexed ground, the realm of so-called "intellectual property," gives rise to a whole new kind of class conflict, one that pits the creators of information--the hacker class of researchers and authors, artists and biologists, chemists and musicians, philosophers and programmers--against a possessing class who would monopolize what the hacker produces.

A hacker, by wrong-definition, can be anything from a computer-user to someone who destroys everything they can get their evil terminals into.
True hackers want to learn, or want to satisfy their curiosity, that's why they get into the system.

 A Hacker Manifesto by McKenzie Wark | PopMatters Book Review
The producers are hackers, who Wark defines as artists, scientists, philosophers, musicians, etc., as well as the computer geeks from whom the name originally derives.
The latest hack is the abstraction of labor power into information, tapping into not only the physical output of producers but also their very consciousness.
And the term vectoralist, besides being opaque and unwieldy, implies a distinction between the new ruling order and the bourgeois class of traditional Marxist analysis that may be not only unwarranted, but perhaps even counterproductive.
