CYBERHIPPIETOTALISM is a theoretical & practical counter-culture platform, currently establishing a series of European hacker live-in labs-residences.
CHT#1 was set up in December 2011 on Lanzarote, Canary Islands. We thought it would be a good idea to spend winters in a 20°C, year-long ocean swimming climate.
Endless summer;)
CHT#2 might be set in Berlin DE/London UK/Ljubljana SI/Western Sahara/?
Contra The_Roommate_Anti-Pattern: While other hackerspaces are just places to go to "in your spare time" or "after work", CHT overpowers the life-work dichotomy by also being a hip crashpad, and cooking nutritious food.
(Kind of like what the hippie communes did, but beyond 1972 this time.)
Integrating theory, technology research & development, and artistic tendencies, + living in the middle of all that, CHT is going for an "all-in" experimental platform, towards futuristic models of men-technology coexistence. Forget 20th century life & social practices, pretend it's 2027 and rock out.

[edit] Getting here, staying here
CHT is an open space for visitors & accepting projects-residents. Crowd-governed to maximize quality & minimize expenses, you can fully subsist here for approximately 10€ daily / 300€ monthly contribution (food+stay, see details here).
There's generally space available all the time. The Lanzarote island has a fine airport with cheap flights available from everywhere in the EU. (Roundtrips from all across Europe are <200€).
[edit] Trivia
♪ CHT#1 is European Union's both southernmost and westernmost hackerspace
♪ The space probably owns the most powerful computer on the island, Bartleby
♪ The official language of the space is Fuzztle
♪ The house has 6 floors
♪ Floor -1 is an underground pool we are fitting to be a multimedia tank
♪ Floor 3 is a terrace with an ocean view. We eat there & grow food on it. Soon: Fish & Garduinos
♪ We own a pizza oven and a have hacked the terrace electric grill plate to have 'Krazy' mode
♪ Using Krazy mode can shut down half the houses's fuses
♪ The house server runs a Music Player Daemon radio and ♪♪we are scrobbling♪♪ (thanks Mpdscribble)
♪ On the edge of a desert, we repeat 1mbit DSL internet from hippie friends. The WiFi antenna is made out of smoked salmon packaging
♪ Our map of notable Lanzarote spots
♪ We wish to be the first energy-independent hackerspace in the world (Note: I didn't check this)
♪ We have set a cockroach nest on fire and won
♪ The space owns a color laser printer, a tent, 2 electric guitars, 5 amplified sound systems, a 20 second delay pedal, and a 24 gear mountain bike with front suspension
