 NW Hackspace
Weds April 22, 2009
7:00pm - 8:30pm
FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology)
88 Wood Street
Liverpool, England L1 4D

A start to getting together a crowd to open a NW Hackspace in
Liverpool [1]:

Starting Weds 22 April, a fortnightly meet-up at 7pm at FACT. We may
try and meet in their media lab at some time, but we'll start with the
bar.

*** BUBBLINO (as seen on BBC ;) ***
Adrian McEwan will bring along Bubblino (as seen on BBC ;) to the
first meeting. Format will be informal discussion after a short intro
on hackspaces.

One reason for choosing this coming Wednesday is that it follows
straight on from the Small Steps to Sustainability meeting on Creative
Learning [2] - something that very much includes having fun in a
hackerspace. I hope that some people will find themselves staying on
from Small Steps for the Hackspace Meeting (or coming early to the HS
meeting, to take part in Small Steps).

Note that Birmingham hackspace combine regular pub meetings with
occasional weekend hackdays. Help us find a venue and we'll be doing
the same.
