Hackspace Catania is based on the 'hack' concept, on a deep analisys to re-design a system to let it work in a way not foreseen by its first creator.
The Hackspace can be considered as a community's place that embeed both workshop and art studio's elements, where meets, share tools and knowledges and improve technical and artistical skills.
