Versus71 Posted December 28, 2011 Report Posted December 28, 2011 A hackerspace or hackspace (also referred to as a hacklab, makerspace or creative space) is a location where people with common interests, often in computers, technology, science, or digital or electronic art (but also in many other realms) can meet, socialise and/or collaborate. Hackerspaces can be viewed as open community labs incorporating elements of machine shops, workshops and/or studios where hackers can come together to share resources and knowledge to build and make things.Many hackerspaces participate in the use and development of free software, open hardware, and alternative media. They are often physically located in infoshops, social centers, adult education centers, or on university campuses, but may relocate to industrial or warehouse space when they need more room.HackerspacesList of Hacker SpacesProminent hackerspace of the world?-baseSite:c-base.orgWhere the: Germany, BerlinMembership:+300Monthly membership dues: €17London Hackspace [LHC]Site: london.hackspace.org.ukWhere the: UK, LondonMembership: +300Monthly membership dues: minimum £5NYC ResistorSite: nycresistor.comWhere the: USA, New YorkMembership: +30Monthly membership dues: $75-115KiberpipaSite: kiberpipa.orgWhere the: Slovenia, LjubljanaMembership: 20 active and 40 former, which are involved in the life of the hackspaceMonthly membership dues: noMetalabSite: www.metalab.atWhere the: Austria, ViennaMembership: +130Monthly membership dues: £20 Quote
