− | == Info ==
| |
− | | |
− | ACKspace is a hackerspace in the south of Netherlands in the City of Heerlen within Limburg.
| |
− | | |
− | A large number of people still think hackers are criminals which break into computers and steal information. We are here to show them the true meaning of hacking.
| |
− | | |
− | We are amongst one on the many space in the world fulfilling a need for the technical, creative and social minded to have a place where they can come together and share their knowledge.
| |
− | | |
− | Our memberbase ranges from all ages, cultures and technical backgrounds. Although we are usually good with computers, we are not your PC helpdesk.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | ACKspace was founded in december 2010 by [[User:PsychiC|PsychiC]], [[User:Vicarious|Vicarious]] and [[User:LuckY|LuckY]]. During the beginning of 2012 LuckY has left and [[User:Xopr|xopr]] has joined the board. These three form the board trying to keep the space running smoothly. After quarter 2, 2014, PsychiC left the board and [[User:Prodigity|Prodigity]] became chairman.
| |
− | | |
− | We strongly encourage our members to contribute with ideas, [[Hackerspace_ACKspace:Current_events|workshops]] and [[projects]]. Together we are creating the place to be for all sorts of hackers out there.
| |
− | | |
− | March 2011 we got a physical space in the former CBS building in Heerlen (XCBS). March 2012 to april 2014 we had new space at the Putgraaf where we upgraded to 24/7 access!.
| |
− | | |
− | As of now, we are back at the former CBS building (Named [[Carbon6]], Kloosterweg 1 in Heerlen) with our ACKspace 3.0!
| |
− | | |
− | Usually we are open most of the evenings and in the weekends, but when in doubt [[Hackerspace_ACKspace:Communication|contact us]] via IRC, e-mail or phone.
| |
− | | |
− | Although we are located in the Netherlands we welcome guests from all over and we are happy to welcome new members joining each month.

− | == Imagining the perfect place ==
| |
− | | |
− | A HackerSpace should be spacious with preferably a few smaller rooms to have different projects in.
| |
− | The Kitchen is nearly a must but it should be a bit shielded from any other rooms to avoid any smells.
| |
− | A Bathroom is an interesting feat.
| |
− | The Living Room Spacious enough to have a couch and big table
| |
− | A good public transport link is a must too
| |
− | | |
− | The perfect place would have:
| |
− | | |
− | *A low rent ✓
| |
− | *Heating ✓
| |
− | *Natural light / windows to open ✓, current windows can't open, but have got small vent grids<br>
| |
− | *Kitchen ✓, Quite big, shared by other tennants<br>
| |
− | **Side note: we have a small bar in our space.
| |
− | *Toilet(s) ✓, 3 unisex<br>
| |
− | *Shower ✓
| |
− | *Parking or at least the possibility to access it with a truck to (un)load stuff ✓
| |
− | *A bus stop or railway station not too far away and available till late ✓
| |
− | *Separate entry (not shared with the rest of the tenants) so that we can install our own access system ✗ / ✓ , We share a main entrance with other tenants, but we got our own keys for 24/7 access to our own rooms.<br>
| |
− | *No (or deaf) neighbours ✓, props go out to our neighbours for they are very relaxed indeed, even helping us out with projects<br>
| |
− | *Easy to reach ✓ , Our location has free parking and is wheelchair accessible
| |
− | *Some storage rooms (basement/cellar) for server ✓
| |
− | *Broadband Internet access ✓
| |
− | *Possibility to install machinery / tools for making things ✓
| |
− | *Exhibition area ✓
| |
− | *Conference/presentation area ✓ , not dedicated, but both rooms would suffice
| |
− | *Small room without windows/light (for photography stuff) ✗
| |
− | *Access to Food (either Restaurants or Markets) ✓
