Just start hacking! Nothing is stopping you!
It is good idea to register on our wiki (here), sign up yourself as interested in projects you think are cool, create pages for other projects you'd like to work on, subscribe to the mailing list, check out the IRC, stop by at our meetups… but most importantly, discuss your ideas and hack freely!
You certainly do not have to be an official member, pay fees etc. to participate in brmlab.
Even non-members are welcome to come to meetups and other events, participate on and even create their own projects, and discuss matters on mailing lists or IRC.
You just miss out on few things if you are not a member, and if you are an active participant and you can afford the membership fees, we would encourage you to become an official member to participate better and also help support brmlab existence (paying rent and services, essential equpiment, …).
You can also support the hackerspace by giving smaller one-off donations if you cannot become an official member.
