Interesting Sites related to Coding, Hacking, Security

Links to clubs and events that I visit regularly.

- Natraj Temple (Offline :-(
- Natraj Temple was the best location in and around Munich for taking a psychedelic night flight from the dancefloor to your mind. It was located in the Kultfabrik (former Kunstpark Ost) in Grafinger Str. near Ostbahnhof. Of particular interest were special unannounced events on other weekdays than Fr and Sa. Because the website is offline, I guess the club no longer exists.
