A hacklab, or media hacklab, is an autonomous technology zone used for the promotion, use and development of emancipatory technologies such as free software and alternative media. Hacklabs promote active participation and creative use of technology, in contrast to the alienation and passive consumption that is usually associated with computer technology. These spaces are often found in infoshops.
