Joining

Come and meet us

Curious about what Revelation Space is all about? Feel free to join us on one of our upcoming meetings, and see what it is all about.

Becoming a full participant

Already know us, been there, done that, liked it? You can become a participant and help this hackerspace stay afloat. The official term is "deelnemer" ("participant"), not "lid" ("member"), because Revelation Space is a stichting (foundation) instead of a vereniging (association).

Participants get all the perks:

  • Key to the space;
  • Usage of all the facilities;
    • All kinds of tools
    • Components
    • Toilet;
    • Dark room and PCB-lighting gear;
    • Pinball and airhockey games
    • Fridge stocked with club-mate (regular, ice-T, cola), coca cola, sisi, 7up, mountain dew (green, blue, red), root beer, water, beer, and more;
    • Chocolate bars and all;
    • RevSpace login for servers;** OpenVPN tunnel to space;
    • And more!
  • A vote in the metameeting decisions
  • An advisory voice in the decision-making process;
  • The right to take out the garbage.

Fee

To cover monthly costs (rent, insurance, what have you), we ask participants for a monthly fee of EUR 25,00. If you really really really can not cough up the dough, please contact the board. In exceptional cases the fee may be waived. But please do understand that the space needs money to exist in the first place, it is one of the disadvantages of living in a capitalistic world.

In addition, you will need to pay a EUR 15,00 deposit for the electronic key, which will be refunded to you upon return of the key.

Any money should be paid to bank account number 43.11.58.207, ABNAMRO Den Haag, Stichting Revelation Space.

Junior Participants

For young hackers, (upto 18 years of age), we have a junior membership. The monthly fee is EUR 15,00. Junior members will need a signature from their parents/guardians, and will be bound by the following extra rules:

  • 3 month trial period before a decision is made about key ownership
  • No unsupervised access to powertools
  • No projects involving high-current/voltage without adult supervision

After 3 months a decision will be made regarding unsupervised access to the space.

How to register?

Here is what to do:

  • First, visit the space at least twice to get a feel for the people and the space;
  • Check out the Guidelines;
  • Write down your details on the registration form, and hand this to one of the administrative people (foo-bar, cinder, blokje);
  • You will receive your key upon payment of the EUR 15,00 deposit.
