* Regular activities of the group include presentations/talks, performances, workshops.
* Group member's produce sound/music and installations, build their own instruments and also work in sound&visuals/image projects.
* Members produce sound and music, build their own instruments, performance tools and installation pieces, and also work in sound and visual projects.
 
In terms of layout this would ideally imply that in the new space it is possible to:


What we would like to be able to do in the new space:
* Use the main workshop for building instruments/devices.
* Use the main workshop for building instruments/devices.
* Use a space/room/area for organising workshops. A quiet and spacious area/room with light, tables, chairs, projectors, speakers. This space would be also useful for other subgroups/members who organise workshops.
* Use a space/room/area for organising workshops. A relatively quiet and spacious area/room with light, tables, chairs, projectors, speakers. This space would be also useful for other subgroups/members who organise workshops.

* Have a Sound Studio for music/sound projects/rehearsals.
* Have a Sound Studio for music/sound projects/rehearsals.
* Have an Open Space/Plato. This space would ideally be empty, with white walls and located '''next''' to the sound studio (or together with it?). It would allow to set up/test installations and performances that involve working with video/image/sound/music/interactivity/screens. As an empty/clear area it could be also used as a photo/video studio/plato (for instance: shootings, stop motion, streaming projects...). This space would be also useful for other subgroups (VideoHackspace, NotJustArduino, Graphics?)
* Have a multi use Open Space. This space would allow to set up/test/record installations and performances that involve working with video/image/sound/music/interactivity/screens. It could be also used as a photo/video studio (for instance: shootings, stop motion, streaming projects...). This space would be useful for several other subgroups (VideoHackspace, NotJustArduino, Graphics?)


What we have to offer as a group:
* Recruitment and outreach: Music Hackspace appeals to people outside of the traditional hacker scene
* Expertise in sound, music, promotion and event organising
* Performances and workshops with broad appeal
* An accessible platform for hackspace members to perform in front of an audience
* We can fund and support a soundsystem for general use in the new space
* We organise events that showcase hackspace members and projects
