Condew: /* Cool Stuff Going On Right Now */

[[Category:HacDC_Wiki]]

{{TOCright}}<span style="font-size:large; line-height:1.5em; color:#222">Welcome to HacDC. We are a hacker space located in Washington, DC. HacDC members improve the world by creatively rethinking technology. We break, build, and occasionally abuse technology in the pursuit of greater knowledge about how it works and repurposing it to build new things. Our shop is located in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_Heights%2C_Washington%2C_D.C. Columbia Heights] neighborhood of DC.</span>

If you're new here, you should start by looking at our public web site at [http://www.hacdc.org/ hacdc.org]. Our Wiki is mostly for internal organization, but you're welcome to look through to get a sense of what we work on (and consider joining yourself!). We invite you to subscribe to our [https://groups.google.com/a/hacdc.org/group/Blabber/topics Blabber] public discussion mailing list.<hr>

=== [http://mirage335.dyndns.org/hacdcprojects Project Tracker] ===
An experimental Project Tracker (aka. ToDo List) has been set up at http://mirage335.dyndns.org/hacdcprojects using web2project.

Curious guests and members looking to pitch in should consult this page for an overview of ongoing HacDC projects and progress.

=== Cool Stuff Going On Right Now ===

* '''Cambridge Stereoscan 200 Scanning Electron Microscope''' We're restoring an electron microscope. [http://wiki.hacdc.org/index.php/Category:Stereoscan]
* [[Byzantium]]
* [[3D Printing]] - Prusa Mendel iteration 2 up and running in the space
* '''Microcontroller Mondays''' (BYO project to work on, get help on, or show off...or just come to check us out! ...usually from 7:30pm on.)
* '''Tin Foil Tuesdays''' - A night to talk about security and privacy related things and to teach others about how to protect themselves online. We reference the 7 layer OSI model in the context of security and engage in productively paranoid activities. ...Tuesdays at 7pm
* [[Amateur radio]] '''Ham Radio''' - make stuff, get your license, QSO, test, tinker, learn,...
* '''{S,Th}oftware Thursdays''' (BYO project to work on, get help on, or show off...or just come to check us out!) ...usually from 7:30pm on.)
* [[GrindDC]] '''Biohacking/DIYbio''' - Hacking on wetware: EEG/EKG/EMG, implants, Quantified Self [http://www.meetup.com/hac-dc/events/108356462/ Thursdays at 7p]
