[hackerspaces-theory] article on culture of hacker and maker spaces

[Andrew Schrock]

Hi all, 

Reviving this list to post a link to a recent paper, "education in disguise": culture of a hacker and maker space. Given the lack of published work on hacker and maker spaces, hopefully it's of some use to the collective thinking of the theory list.

PS: like most articles, this took a while to get published... I started interviews for it in 2011. As such it is a snapshot of a hackerspace at a certain place and time. This hackerspace has changed considerably since then, as has my thinking on hacking/hacker culture, so that's one big caveat.
