The usual hackerspace is located in urban areas and is easy to visit. Opposing to this we are located in the countryside. Our internet sucks and we are hard to reach. At first this sounds bad because hackers want internet and they are lazy, but then we realize that we could do amazing things with just 28kbit modems and that 3mbit DSL is actually ok for most uses. It limits distractions, it grows a responsibility of when to download large chunks, we have 20mbit over satellite. With the part were our hackerspace is hard to reach comes that you got time, once you are here. You can be lazy and still find inspiration. There are so many undisturbed, dull hours that it is possible to tunnel and produce without the noisy pressure of management.

Everyone is welcome. As technology has a wide spectrum please come to the next IT-Meeting and start to be involved. When you like to visit us for a extended period get in contact so we can organize your stay and try to match knowledge. Join us in the irc://irc.freenode.net:6667/#echohackerfarm.
