I signed up for digest mode but it is rapidly becoming unusable due to excessive quoting of previous emails. Please only quote what is necessary for context. Some of the digests I've received contain 2-5 emails which all contain quote trees with 10 or more previous emails quoted. This makes it difficult to find the actual new content especially on mobile devices. Cheers, Shawn

cuddling it

by Leonid Kozhukh

"killing it" is a recently popular term to denote excellence and immense progress. it has a violent, forceful connotation. friends in the circus community - through empirical evidence - have established a belief that operating at the highest levels of talent requires mindfulness, awareness, and calm. thus, a better term, which they have started to playfully use, is "cuddling it." thought sudoers would appreciate this. cuddling it, -- len founder, ligertail http://ligertail.com

Potential for Art Murmur and Solano Art Walk

by Patrick Schmidt

Hi y'all, Even if a long movie on Art Murmur is not the most social event, it was a very good movie and I am glad we watched it. (Money and Life) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0xRkaJCs5g Interestingly our neighbor (the door next to the kitchen) seemed to completely disagree with the core message and it seemd to be defending our current system. The piano on the street was a wonderful thing, thanks Sam &co. With the Art Murmur we have a big potential to grow something awesome. I hope our community will grow, continue to open up, embrace diversity, and will have many awesome projects, discussions and exchange to come. We live in very interesting times and this opening up might be the key to something really special that can happen in Oakland. I hope as a community we will stay away from accusation, blame and criticism and focus on what unites us. coming together and creating a better future. One thing that we could easily pull of is making the Art Murmur event @ Sudo to networking and community event for hackers, creatives, change agents, activists, green movements... we can invite all the hackerspaces around and all the non profits we are connected with and reach out to more local groups. (Monthly BACH Networking ?) Similar the Second Saturdays we have the Solano Art Walk in Berkeley. With inspiration and help of our Community we declared the Open Fine Art Gallery a Hackerspace. It is located in the storage room of the vacant Oaks Theatre. it has a secret entrance to inside the theatre. we could make a movie in there. (what about a movie about reclaiming the theatre, maybe it will be a self-fulfilling prophecy) if we create a well networked community and reach out to the first and generation hackers who made it to money I believe we could reclaim the whole theater and BACH Hacker University/Hotel/Conference Center/Theater/Space/School Saturday June 8th will be the first official "Solano Art Walk", and it would be wonderful to show the local community here what and how awesome hackerspaces are. Maybe with a huge map of the bay area with all the hackerspaces, electronic kits, LED strips... any art projects that sudoers and other hackers might wanna show. This Saturday May 11th we have an art opening as well, 7-9pm is a good time to come by and check out the space and share visions for the future. Maybe someone wants to come out and wants to declare the space 'Sudo-gallery" the space is payed for until july, all events are free and donation based, the rules are "be excellent to each other and say hi" the conflict resolution is we focus on love peace and unity (we do not support hate, separation or fear). ------- What do you guys think of having a Art Murmur planning meeting 10 days - 2 weeks before the next murmur? anyone interested in hacking the gallery or hacking the theatre in north berkeley? best, patrick https://www.facebook.com/OpenFineArtGallery openfineartgallery.net hackthegallery.net

Re: [sudo-discuss] Hey writers!

If anyone didn't see, Sunday the 19th @4p it is! I have a lot of writing ideas, such as chronicling Internet archaeology..or anthropology. I've been doing a lot of the latter, and I'll tell you how during the 19th's meetup. I'd also be interested in generating random haikus. Who knows of a good haiku library?

This Sat (5/11): Today I Learned: Comics, Arduinos, 3D Printing & More

by Marina Kukso

Hi everyone, This Saturday (5/11) at 2PM, come learn about Comics, Arduinos, 3D Printing & More <https://sudoroom.org/wiki/page/ComicsAndMore> with Romy! In a *NUTSHELL,* this is an old-fashioned comic book jam. We will take the end result and print it out as a relief using the 3D Printer. Here's the *PLAN*: - Roll out a big roll of paper - People draw their characters interacting (1 or more characters per artist) - We scan the drawing - We fuse the scan onto a 3D Model using the customizable Lithopane onThingiverse - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:74322 - Print out the lithopane on the 3D Printer - Warning - this might take a while (at least 20-30 minutes?) Come, draw, and invite your friends! Best, Marina

Happy Hour Tomorrow! and web blogging/wiki video hacking!

by Sam Tepper

Hey All, I want to invite you to our exquisite Sudo Hacky Happer hour tomorrow! If you have super awesome video equipment or want to help set things up, be sure to show up on the early side (6PMish..potluck food?) I am not personally knowledgeable about the wiki, blog, or video stuff, so I'd really appreciate your help! For everyone else, festivities will start around 7PM, although we will likely be sharing the common room at first. We'll be having group and individual video entries, and I hope to get some nice screencapture tutorials going, so bring your gear! And your booze! We will be respectful of members who wish to not be filmed, but I hope we can all help show off how ridiculously awesome our Sudo culture, have some tenlightening and productive discussions, and witness various Sudo members degenerate into friendly and respectful debauchery. Yours in crime, Sudo Sam
