I said "your 'community' space," but honestly, I still want this to be my space, too. I hardly ever make a fuss about any of this stuff because it's all so futile, you know? but in this case, I really want to make my point clear: I think we should rescind our action against Rannette. I think she's been treated unfairly. Even if she is "aggressive" towards you or your compatriots, I don't think we need white dudes policing our space of black women's bodies. Matt, you claim to have acted in another's interest and you offer an injured third party -- let them speak for themselves, because I don't think it's your place right now. If there was a violent incident that threatened our space, let's hear it from a witness or an involved party. "Something Happened" is not good enough. Otherwise "but above all the Omni Commons must maintain a safe, welcoming environment" seems to fly directly in the face of the lived experience of too many black people.

Call for Facilitators / Participants in a sudo Men's Group

by Matthew Senate

Hey all, I wanted to reach out for some feedback. Seeking folks who would want to facilitate or participate in a men's group. I've previously participated in small groups like this and found them beneficial for various reasons. I would like to see if folks have had similar or different experiences. The way I'm thinking about this would culminate in something like a regular meeting for men in the sudo room community to discuss relevant issues including those of identity, oppression, privilege, patriarchy, gender, sexuality, stereotypes, safe space, and mutual support. This may not be the best or even a viable path to approach these topics, but I wanted to throw it out there to see if there is any interest. Thanks, Matt

Re: [sudo-discuss] [CCL] Free Scanning Electron Microscope in Pleasanton! (was Fwd: [Microscopy] viaWWW:SMI3200 FIB system looking for a good home)

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Here's some images of the Seiko SMI 3200 Scanning Electron Microscope that is in need of a new home: http://www.beamservices.com/used-equipment.html http://www.caeonline.com/listing/product/9025735/seiko-smi-3200 Note that this is NOT a small system! It's not huge as SEM's go, but definitely not desktop - more like "small room sized". And it would obviously need some dedicated person to keep it in good running condition. It is however almost brand new, and currently *running*, at <5nm resolution! Beam Services Inc is down in Pleasanton, so I guess interested parties could potentially go and have a look at the system. This kind of equipment would be a significant commitment and investment in time and effort on our part, so let's coordinate on this shall we?

3D printing my MRI ... scraps of something getting started

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/wiki/MRI_3D_Printing Hi, I've been having fun at SudoRoom lately. I have wanted to *3D Print my MRI of my ankle!* I'm trying to overcome some hurdles > -- I'm fundamentally a software and 2D digital person normally, it's hard for me to get into 3D modelling -- I'm used to keyboards, not wrenches and touching things which is why I go to hardware hack night I want to get beyond the stages of just looking at stuff on the 3D Printer. Anyone else up to it? I'm wondering if I should come in more than once a week... ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

What makes you say that? I would be very surprised if that happened.

Wednesday "Immersive Afternoon: Organising without Bosses"

by Pete Forsyth

Hi all, I just learned of this workshop, run by people from Enspiral: Enspiral <http://www.enspiral.com/> is a collaborative network of over 260 professionals and 18 social enterprises headquartered in Wellington (New Zealand), with nodes in other locations around the country and internationally. It exists to create a system of work where people can focus their energies on what is most meaningful to them – solving the biggest problems of our time. I thought this might be an excellent opportunity to somebody from Omni. I have the sense that Enspiral has accomplished much of what Omni aspires to, and may have valuable lessons. The workshop costs $40. There's also one on Monday (tomorrow) in SF. If you want to attend, you should RSVP ASAP -- last I heard it's possible they will cancel one or both due to low sign-up. And if the cost is prohibitive to somebody who really sees value in Omni to attending, let me know -- I could pitch in. Since I'm not on the Omni list, I hope somebody will forward this! -Pete [[User:Peteforsyth]]

Astra Taylor Talk on Taking Back power in the Age of Networks - (video)

by Romy Ilano

I thought you would all enjoy this talk from Astra Taylor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdImE0iC2IQ Listened to this on my way to work. - I think it'd be fun to play one of these videos on our SudoRoom television Thursday or Friday evening during one of the Linux installfests. - We have a lot of really smart people here, it'd be cool if they gave a five minute or ten minute talk on something like this - especially if it was around stuff going on in the SudoRoom and collectives in Oakland. I'd certainly forward this and tell people on the way to work to listen =D Astra Taylor was also part of the group that collectively bought private debt and forgave a lot of college loans. *The Internet is said to be a space of democratic expression and transformation, both culturally and politically. But how true is that claim? What are some of the economic, technical, and legal obstacles in place? Drawing from her recent book, "The People’s Platform: Taking Back Power and Culture in the Digital Age," and her experience as an artist and an activist, Astra Taylor -- filmmaker, writer, and political organizer -- addresses campaigns by musicians against streaming services and debtors against creditors to reflect on the larger question of how to organize and leverage change in an age of virtual networks -- be they networks of cultural distribution or financial ones.* ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com
