A new Media Hacklab is getting started in the east end of London. Based at the Freedom Press bookshop and social centre, it aims to be an open political space for alternative media, free software, training courses (e.g. GNU/Linux for activists, GNU/Linux for computer virgins, web design), community projects and various other great stuff. The projects that happen there will depend on the commitment of those involved. There is an open meeting planned to discuss both the practical work that needs doing and the political foundations of the lab:
SATURDAY JANUARY the 10th 2004
This will be followed (fri 16th to sun 18th jan 2004) with a work weekend. Much has been done so far but we need a solid few days of work to get the lab into a state where it can start to be used.
Anyone interested please come along: this is a very exciting project!
A web site is currently being worked on, in the meantime we have a wiki page:

and there is a mailing list too:
freedomlab@sinroot.net
