NYC Resistor is a restricted membership private club hackerspace with approximately 50 members in New York,[1] inspired by Chaos Computer Club and other hacker organizations. The New York Times describes it as "kind of frat house for modern-day mad scientists."[2] Its own website describes itself as "NYC Resistor is a hacker collective with a shared space located in downtown Brooklyn. We meet regularly to share knowledge, hack on projects together, and build community."[3]

Membership

Membership costs $125 per month, or $75 for members who teach classes, and is by invitation.

Monday and Thursday's craft nights are open to the public and free (6:30pm-10pm). Classes are open to the public for a small fee.

Physical Space

Since 2011, NYC Resistor is located on 3rd Avenue in Boerum Hill, upstairs from the former Makerbot headquarters. The industrial building houses a small kitchen, several shop tables, an epilog laser cutter, and a small machine shop. Members' shelves are littered with electronics projects and personal tools.

Notable Projects

  • NYC Resistor was a finalist in Red Bull Creation 2011,[4] submitting Nautilus Terrestrial, "a hand-pumped railroad cart slapped on top of a bicycle."[5]
