monochrom is organizing a <http://hackbus.info>community site for the
evergrowing armada of hackbusses.
We need a root movement of doing strange things with hardware which
was not intended (aka "hacking") because only when we use things in
ways other than they were planned can something new arise.
Hackbusses (or mobile hacklabs or hack vehicles) are a low-threshold
way of bringing the culture of hacking to the people. They are
migratory learning and teaching units, taking the talented hackers
and their ideas out of urban centers and bringing them to people who
might not otherwise be aware of the possibilities available to them.
We follow a long tradition of this nomadic approach to bring
self-empowerment to the people. These units can be everywhere. And
they should be everywhere. Start one yourself!
You own one? Then <http://hackbus.info/index.php/Add_your_bus>add your bus.
