This is a real ‘web’, just like a spider’s – a place of connections – ideas – information – of dreams!
Our aim is to make it a Web of Hubs for alternative and free cultural spaces and people
The idea is to provide a loose-knit, non-hierarchical, web-based resource network for a wide range of what we are calling ‘Free Cultural Spaces’ (FCS). They wouldn’t necessarily use that term to describe themselves, but we need a simple, non-threatening term!

It is many things – the search for, and codification of, mythical and extinct beings – humans, animals, birds – just about anything really. So-called monsters such as Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster share the billing with the Minotaur, the Dodo and Robin Hood. Dazed and Confused?
