Fwd: [AMTD] Fwd: Please join us for a FOCUS GROUP to design Maker Spaces

by Rachel McConnell

Interesting concept. I don't know anything further than this. Rachel1.0 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Bill Lightner <bill.lightner(a)lightnergroup.com> Date: Wed, May 15, 2013 at 12:43 PM Subject: Please join us for a FOCUS GROUP to design Maker Spaces Greetings, We invite you to participate in a focus group we are hosting to investigate maker preferences regarding *Makeropolis*, a two-acre light-industrial, multi-tenant maker community we are planning for 3250 Hollis in West Oakland. The meeting will take place on: · *Tuesday morning, June 11th, from at 10 a.m.* · *at 612 Howard Street in Suite 100. * 612 Howard <http://lightnergroup.com/612-howard-street-san-francisc> is just two blocks from the Montgomery BART station and a block from Moscone Center Garage. We are holding it in this San Francisco building because we renovated it and believe its architecture inspires creativity. Heres brief description of what we are calling Makeropolis: Theres a new industrial revolution in America, with thousands of micro-manufacturers taking advantage of new technologies to make useful things. We see an unfulfilled need for clean and bright workspaces, purpose-built for these neo-industrialists. So we are developing a multi-tenant light-industrial campus where budding entrepreneurs can produce great things. Located in northwest Oakland, this two-acre community combines smaller and larger indoor spaces, access to shared resources, a relaxing outdoor central park and maker-friendly, on-site management. Our mission is to enable innovation, craftsmanship and productivity in a clean, secure and inspirational environment. We really hope you will join us in this exciting process. If you want to bring another maker who has interest in helping create this environment, please invite them and let us know theyre coming. R.S.V.P. wl(a)lightnergroup.com 415-267-2900 x114 Thanks!

I went to sudoroom for the first time yesterday!!!

by Sonja Trauss

It's amazing! It's beautiful! I want to be a member and pay money but I don't want to come to a lot of meetings, is that ok? Would anybody be interested, do you think, in co-op mat pilates classes in the mornings? I really love pilates, but it's really expensive. You don't need machines at all to do it, all you need is a big carpeted floor. I think if a person has taken like 3 classes he or she is qualified to lead a class. I'd like to take turns leading. A potential downside I envision has to do with insurance. Do you think your insurance would prohibit sports, even really low key sports like mat exercises?

making thread

by Romy Ilano

i'm not going to maker faire this year (too bad) i'm starting a thread for people who like to make things. i'd like for this to result in something creative. there were some nice projects last weekend. i made a lot of progress this week learning stuff. == i'm not so interested in being sent lots of links to instructables / youtube videos of burrito delivery drones / stuff that doesn't result in people doing creative things in the space / rambling political rants but you know, it's a "free country" and we are all anarchists so you can write what you want.

Fwd: Volunteer to Turn Backyards into Gardens

by Marina Kukso

hi everyone, city slicker farms has an awesome program where they have volunteers turn people's backyards into gardens in 4 hours. although the resulting gardens appear to be closed source (with sharing of produce encouraged), it would be nice to learn the model of rapid garden set up so that we can set up our own network of volunteer built and community shared backyard gardens. so far julio, (possibly) diana, and i have signed up for the may 25th event, so if you'd like to go as a group there are a couple spots left. - marina ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Julio Rios <julio.rios(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, May 15, 2013 at 11:28 AM Subject: Fwd: Backyard Garden Program Volunteering To: Marina Kukso <marina.kukso(a)gmail.com>, Vicky Knox <vknoxsironi(a)gmail.com>, Bryan Onwuka <bryan.onwuka(a)gmail.com>, Diana Wu <diwu118(a)gmail.com>, Ivan Silva <brito.ivans(a)gmail.com> in case you guys are interested ... there are only 3 spots left for the May 25th build. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: City Slicker Farms <City_Slicker_Farms(a)mail.vresp.com> Date: Wed, May 15, 2013 at 10:56 AM Subject: Backyard Garden Program Volunteering To: julio.rios(a)gmail.com <http://cts.vresp.com/fbl?79339f64e0/5569fef1b6/http%3A%2F%2Fhosted-p0.vresp…> <http://cts.vresp.com/ts?79339f64e0/5569fef1b6/http%3A%2F%2Fapi.addthis.com%…> <http://cts.vresp.com/ls?79339f64e0/5569fef1b6/http%3A%2F%2Fapi.addthis.com%…> ** Hello BYG Volunteers!

Activism in Oakland

by Patrick Schmidt

dear friends, tonight we had many fruitful dicsussions at sudo. it led to the connection of some obvious dots: the prohibition of practices that threaten biodiversity and our well being on this planet and the legalization of a new economy for a sustainable society in balance with the planet. the society we are seeing out there is the dying caterpiller, lets not be afraid, after the transition we will all be happier, live a more sustainable lifestyle in community instead of in solitude, instead of toxic foods and scarcity we will have non toxic foods in abundance. We will become a butterfly. We will wake up to see that all this we went through was a horrible dream. We will live on a compassionate planet. we will dicsover who we really are. we are not slaves or slave masters. we are not robots, we are not animals. we are cosmic spirits, travelling through space and time since millenia of years. we are the planet. we are sick, but we are healing. we can find peace of mind, and we can create peace on earth. world peace is near if we open up to it. it starts within every one of us. it starts in the supermarket, it starts on our plates. it starts by smiling to a stranger on the street and saying hi instead of just playing the same old game of separation. we vote with our dollar every day. we are the consumers that the corporations ship materials to from all over the world. Here were some ideas as action items: - promote May 25th as Global and Local World Peace March (Stop Monsanto and legalize Hemp) (in the evening we will screen the film who bombed judy barry, goes along well) - connect the city hackers (us) with the countryside food hackers (organic farmers) (as an alternative to corporate food) - establiosh symbiosis to food hackers, invite them to talk, get food donated, maybe have small farmers market, maybe they need our skills. -organize community potlucks on a regular basis, find allies, loal organizations, gather the tribes, grow a movement of sharing hacker grown, non corporate and non toxic food. I conneted two pitures to one collage. Please share if it resonates with you. I posted it on a couple of FB pages and then got notified that I cant post it anymore on pages. Please share your Ideas, thoughts, feedback. Any Ideas which organizations to contact? Any Ideas on how to pull this off? Praying for peace, love and abundance to come, as this is exactly what mother earth provides us with. lets stop artificial scarcity. Lets stop the killing and distruction. Lets have a peaceful revolution, share food, music, art, culture, creativity, come together and heal as a society , on a personal level, and as the planet.

The corporate Matrix- whats wrong with this world- forwarded message

by Patrick Schmidt

>From Alchemyst Mystique https://www.facebook.com/alchemystique When are we gonna wake up to dead caterpillar matrix to see that : Drs are here to make us sick Banks are here to make us poor Governments are here to enslave us Schools are here to keep us ignorant Food makers are here to keep us starved Politicians are here to keep us disempowered Media is here to keep us misinformed Religions are here to keep us fearful and disconnected from source Scientists are here to keep the status quo going and not give us best products brothers, sisters, the matrix is dead. So please stop believing your dr has your best interest in mind, instead understand the power of your own body, magic of your own healing Stop believing your banks and rich people are here to let us have our fair share instead start building your own world, your own abundance your own economy stop believing government is here to help you prosper, and be free instead inform yourself about your own sovereignty and ways you can change the world stop believing in formal education is gonna make you smarter, or give you better opportunities instead figure out ways to become a hacker figuring out and learning from life experiences stop believing food companies want to give you the best food instead start making your own food, growing your own crop, your own crops. stop believing politicians are there to represent you to make sure your have your rights instead learn to organize, create grass root movement which doesnt wait for others stop believing what you see in media as being true, accurate, well-intentioned instead start using media using critical thinking, not believing everything they tell you, better yet do your research stop believing religions get you closer to God, and that they are your way to be calm and at peace instead start connecting to Source energy thru your own heart, thru your own intuition in connection to the ever present magic stop believing scientists are trying to make our world the best they can, and give us the best instead start creating the world you want, make it, and take every piece of so called scientific evidence with a grain of salt, Start learning about the work of scientists like Nassim Haramein, Bruce Lipton, David Gruder.

Wednesday Dinner

by Raymond Lai

Hello Friendly Sudo Room, I won't be coming to tonight's meeting (Life: the Great Distractor), but I am still interested in making food. Since we have lot's of pasta in the Sudo Kitchen (I can see it from the live camera feed, that is trained on the pantry), I'm going to suggest a pasta salad. If others can provide fresh tomatoes, fresh basil, and perhaps fresh mozzarella then we would have a feast indeed. I have garlic and an onion (or at least a part of an onion), and I can season olive oil with it. Add salt and pepper and you have a less than $20 dinner for hungry Sudoers. We can get fancy and put in capers or yellow squash or any numbers of other things, but the essentials of garlic, olive oil, salt, tomatoes, and basil is timeless. Anyone's tastebuds tickled sufficiently to shop and cook with me. car nice to have but unessential. cheers, ray
