The Oxford Hackspace

We are a group of volunteers working to set up a hackspace in Oxford, UK - a community space to meet and collaborate on ideas and projects spanning art, technology, science, DIY and beyond. The word "hack" in this context is used to mean creating and combining items in new and delightful ways, often to benefit the public, and the worldwide hacking movement will soon have a home in Oxford!

We currently meet up each week at the Oxford Action Resource Centre to talk shop and work on projects together. To find out the next meeting check the oxford-hackspace@googlegroups.com group. Get in touch there, or just start interacting on this wiki. Come along to the meetings and meet like minded, creative people to work on projects and/or socialise with.

We're working towards setting up a hackspace, a community workshop where we can have the tools to work on our projects. We're looking into various venues in Oxford. Setting up the space will require some work and we're always looking for people to help, if that's what you're interested in. If helping with the admin isn't your thing then don't worry, just come along and make stuff.
