I got a lot of help from sudoroom members with the light projection mapping
ideas. Also from Noisebridge!
So far a lot of stuff online is people using really nice larger projectors,
and there's a lot of great sophistication with mapping beforehand,
especially in Blender, etc.
But after chatting with folks, I'm taking the route first with small
handheld laser projectors that hook up easily to smartphones and tablets or
can take SD cards.
The small projectors have been a good choice to get people excited. It's a
lot more spontaneous. THere's just something about hooking up a laptop to a
huge projector, being stuck at the back of room etc., but with the hand
held projectors I can go anywhere and manipulate the images manually
without having to make fancy graphics and videos
- Marc discussed mounting the projectors onto bicycles - both projectors
have mounts or have threaded quarter inch? inserts common to cameras, and
I'm fairly confident I can put them on my goPro style mounts with some
work. Aiming maybe for the next East Bay Bike Party which is March 11
(Friday night) - oh ya marc I still have your camera mount on wood for the
stand will bring it back Sunday or Tuesday is that OK!
- Carl G from SudoRoom has some projects he made for pixel art - we
projected onto the movable walls in the sudoroom ballroom. Since it was so
dark we were able to get a decent size (the walls) and there was a lot of
energy and excitement!

Even nicer, I have been trying to get my regular cartoonist drawing group
that meets wednesdays to get involved and even hang out at SudoRoom and
omnicommons. They're just very clever and focus a lot on animation and
cartoons! I finanlly got the projector working and was projecting Brian
Kolm's crazy cat onto the wall, a bowl and on a spinning lazy susan.

Even in he brightly lit movie theater (new parkway) the cartoonists got
realy excited!

A lot of people are really into Hayao Miyazaki and theme park rides. I mean
we aren't going to attempt this yet without asking, but what is the next
step from immersive light projection rooms in the Omni Commons Ballroom?
Imagine a guided ride in a wheeled cart right? wouldn't that be super fun?
Hmmm!!!!!

Hey Sudo. Here're the minutes from tonight's meeting, along with the TL;DR:
https://pad.riseup.net/p/sudoroommeeting-keep
Reopening
After some quieter months, Sudo's getting more active. Reopening isn't
going to entail any single change, just a continuation of the recent bloom
in activity. Expect to see more events, more communication on social media,
and more new faces.
(Social media links here: https://twitter.com/sudoroom/https://www.instagram.com/sudohuman/)
Clean-up
This too is gradual, but Mark would like to hold a cleaning day on Sunday,
March 13th from 1 PM onward. If you're eager to clear some space for a
project or decorate a bit, don't be shy: step up and offer to help Mark on
the 13th. Alternatively, be the change you wanna see. Jake hauled off
hundreds of pounds of Ewaste this week. He can give you the address if
anyone else wants to do the same.

~~ Tuesdays: Hardware Hacking from 7 PM

Thinking about projects in micro mobility and change management for Americans. How do we get people who drive cars to walk as much as people who take subways? Make safer biking paths? Remove easy parking and encourage car drivers to park and walk or take a bike share
Most people don’t want to live in strip mall friendly places anymore
Along with light protection mapping this is another cool topic of my time at SudoRoom!!

Greetings Sudo Room!
This is your monthly donation invoice. Thank you for stewarding the
commons!
Love and solidarity,
Omni Commons Finance Working Group
Hi everyone,
you're getting this email either because you're on the sudoroom discuss email
list, or because I BCC'd you directly. Tonight I'll be hosting Sudoroom for
those who want to come hack on whatever in person, or through telepresence of
any means you can invoke. There's a link to the Jitsi telescreen in this email!
Remember that Omni Commons and Sudoroom policy is presently that
EVERYONE MUST WEAR A MASK AT ALL TIMES INSIDE THE BUILDING.
(if you want to eat something you should go outside)
in the past few weeks, we've had about 4-10 people over the course of the
evening, not including remote participants who logged in through the
telescreen.
I try to be there soon after 6pm.
if you get to the door (at the corner of 48th and shattuck) and you can't get
in, call me or someone else who's there to let you in! Email me if you don't
have my phone number. Actually a great way to get our attention is to join the
video chat link at the end of this email!
We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it after 10PM anyway
because of diminishing returns :)
You should get on this sudoroom discuss mailinglist! click here:
https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/
and you should donate to sudoroom, monthly, by signing up here:
https://sudoroom.org/humans
and if you need to make a one-time donation, you can go here:
https://sudoroom.org/donate
bonus: join the jitsi videochat with the space tonight, and chat with each
other as well as a giant TV screen/speakerphone on the wall of the space:
https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles
(don't worry if you're the only one in the "room", others will join eventually,
and if the camera is pointed at the floor, just yell until someone comes and
talks to you and then ask them to aim it back up into the room)
see you soon!

I know that people are working on a replacement for sudo-humans but maybe we
should fix this anyway until that's ready?
thank you
