These Meetings are Social & Hacking Meetings, where people can do cool hacks, make awesome gadgets, stab TVs with soldering irons, play cowbell, build giant robots, hack on software or just lounge about and chat!

Theres no guest list or membership requirement, just turn up!

As far as food and drink goes, we often order takeaway, there is a microwave and tea and coffee making facilities, and you can bring your own food & drinks if you like.

The HACMan show-and-tell will now take place on the first meeting of every month, starting from July the 7th.  This is an hour-long session, running from around 8pm, where HACMan members can show off interesting items they've found, teach people how to make something, or describe how they built a killer robot bent on destroying humanity!  We are aiming for 3x 20 minute talks per session, leaving time for the regular hack meeting afterwards.

We could do with some for volunteers to give talks, we need one more talk for July's event, just send a mail to the google group if you're interested.

We've discussed holding HACMan meetings every wednesday evening, and have been testing it unofficially, but now its time to make them official!  Here are the dates the space will be open for HACMan meetings in June:

  • Wednesday 2nd June, 7pm
  • Wednesday 9th June, 7pm
  • Wednesday 16th June, 7pm
  • Saturday 19th June, 10am
  • Wednesday 23rd June, 7pm (Our 1st birthday celebration!)
  • Wednesday 30th June, 7pm
