In Zagreb I hooked up with Marcell and his happy crew of hackers at the MAMA. G33koscope is an event, pictured above, that they sponsor that explores the cultural aspects of the hacking and geek culture. They also organize a weekly exchange of skills that fills up a room with people hacking away on their projects and helping each other. Kind of like Indy Hall, Philly Startup Hackathons, or our own Open Hack.

They maintain a space of around 4000sqft that is used as a public access internet cafe, conference room, and general hacking space. The cool thing is that they also get politically active in anti corruption and urban planning campaigns.

We have much to learn from this group, and I hope we get to do a joint event one of these days.
