Hacklab



A hacklab, or media hacklab, is an autonomous technology zone used for the promotion, use and development of emancipatory technologies such as free software and alternative media. Hacklabs promote active participation and creative use of technology, which their participants see as a reaction to the supposed alienation and passive consumption that is usually associated with computer technology (Microsoft is a commonly given example).
