Danielle Windecker-Hilton

Danielle Windecker-Hilton

I am a senior PR and marketing leader with nearly two decades of experience helping businesses find their voice, raise their profile and connect with the people who matter most.

Having worked across Canada and the UK, I bring an international perspective, a deep understanding of the media landscape and a strong ability to spot opportunities others may overlook. I am highly knowledgeable, resourceful and practical, with a talent for turning complex communications challenges into clear, achievable strategies.

I believe every business has a story worth telling, but knowing how, when and where to tell it makes all the difference. Through my work at Sycamore Communications, I help ambitious founders and brands build credibility, secure meaningful media coverage and turn strong ideas into genuine influence and commercial growth.

My expertise spans public relations, brand strategy, media relations, thought leadership, crisis communications, business development and strategic partnerships. I have led campaigns that have achieved national and international coverage, strengthened reputations and created valuable opportunities for the businesses and individuals behind them.

As a speaker, I combine strategic insight with warmth, energy and plenty of personality. My style is encouraging, engaging and refreshingly practical, giving audiences useful ideas they can act on straight away. Whether I am speaking about PR, personal branding, media opportunities or business visibility, I bring clarity, creativity and infectious enthusiasm to the room.

I am passionate about helping people recognise the value of their own experience, communicate with confidence and become better known for the work they do.

Paul Brown

Paul Brown

In the beginning... There was teaching English.

But I began writing professionally for the countercultural Spanish tech magazine @rroba in the 90s, and then went on to be the editor/layout monkey/translator/jack-of-all-trades of the Spanish edition of "Linux Magazine – Chronicle of the Revolution".

When that closed, I also quit teaching completely and became editor-in-chief of Linux Magazine — the German one this time, but again in Spanish. I founded a publishing house with German partners in 2004. We published several tech magazines for a decade, covering free software, Linux, open hardware, and mobile technologies. I wrote scathing editorials criticising big tech, public administrations, proprietary vendors, opportunistic politicians, and everything in between. I did layout, marketed the mag to readers and advertisers, unloaded trucks full with pallets of copies, built an online subscription portal, and learned everything about the publishing business I could, just in case it would come in handy.

When the magazine market went belly up in the late 2000s and early 2010s, we held on until 2014 and then called it quits, and I recycled myself into a "communications expert" because, why not?

I started working as a marketing consultant for KDE e.V. in 2017. I work with the members of the Promo team, setting goals, managing campaigns and analysing results. I also help KDE projects optimise their communication strategies, and I copywrite and proofread their websites and blog posts.

I also run most of KDE's fundraising efforts, and consult for GNOME on the stuff I have become experienced with.

Am I expert? I guess so. I think I can answer a lot of questions of what's going on in the open source market, and can figure out what will work in a campaign, and see opportunities where they are not obvious. Either way, I'll let you be the judge of that.

Carson McKee

Carson McKee

My goal is to help people develop media literacy in an environment where culture is accelerating faster than most people can interpret.

My work focuses on the systems underneath contemporary digital life: how memes encode cultural behavior, how algorithms reorganize attention, how advertising collapses spatial boundaries, and how the underlying protocols of media shape what we believe, share, and understand.

I’m a digital culture analyst and media theorist and I’ve spent my life moving through every major shift in digital culture. I began on a Commodore Vic20 writing BASIC programs on loose-leaf paper. I discovered the early web through Netscape in art school, studying Intermedia when digital experimentation was still a fringe idea. I worked through the rise of social platforms, the marketing era of Web2, the speculative creativity of Web3 and I’ve now arrived in the AI era as an educator and media theorist trying to explain what all of this means.

My work explains the systems behind contemporary digital life: meme dynamics, protocol aesthetics, algorithmic influence and the collapse of traditional media logic. Rather than focusing on tools, I work to uncover the deeper structures that shape how people think, communicate and create.

I’m not teaching people how to use tools. I’m trying to map the deeper structures.

I believe in what I’m talking about because I’ve been there to see it form:

A student in Web1.
A practitioner in Web2.
An educator in Web3.
A theorist in the AI era.

Everything I publish - talks, videos, essays, posts and digital projects is an attempt to make digital culture legible.
