One aspect of Place Hacking can be described as Urban Exploration.

Devotees around the world explore the hidden sides of cities - abandoned buildings, underground tunnels, sewer systems, unused stretches of subway or old industry plants.

The movement uses the potential of existing public space and transform it into a moving environment.

Guerrilla Gardening as a form of Place Hacking is gardening on land that the gardeners do not have legal right to use, often an abandoned site or area not cared for by anyone.

We understand Urban Knitting as well as a form of Place Hacking that employs colourful displays of knitted or crocheted yarn or fibre.

The celebration of May Day around the world is seen also as a phenomena that deals with the relationship between artistic practices and political action.
