This artist is visiting town and wanted to know if he could speak at Sudo Room or give away any art. I told him that we don't have anyone dedicated to organizing this kind of event, but that I'd ask if anyone wants to. If you'd like to host him during November, put it on the calendar and go for it. *Andrew R Gross, (he/him)* 412.657.5332 - shrad.org <http://www.shrad.org> ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Jared Sofoifa <j.a.sofoifa(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Oct 6, 2023 at 10:44 AM Subject: [sudo-info] An idea To: <info(a)sudoroom.org> Good Morning, I am a Guatemalan Artist in Canada. I am wondering if your space would want to be part of a project I've been Working on. https://jaredarmandosofoifa.com/the-ocean-gives/ This is my largest painting to date. It spans roughly four feet by five feet. I want to give it away in a raffle to anyone that shares a smile. This year being in a position of comfort, it pained me greatly to see everyone around me struggling with the rising costs of everything. Being from Guatemala I have a deep knowledge of plants and how to cultivate them. I volunteered my time at a giant garden in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, operated by the local food bank. I realized that I was focusing on the wrong things, while it was great to feed people, as a painter I couldn't stand by and not feed their souls. Given that fine Art is mostly out of reach from the working class, I decided that I would rather "sell" my painting for smiles. I want to provide people struggling for survival, to have some kind of hope. In our politicized world it is hard to be kind to others and not guarded. What we need is community and unity. I feel like this project gets at the core of what future artists will provide the world. If you would like I can provide files for ready-to-print media including a poster with a QR code and printable raffle tickets from anyone that does not have a 'smart' telephone. As well as the poem about the painting. I will be in the Bay Area during Nov.8th-Nov.23rd promoting my Art and the seven works of writing I completed during COVID lockdowns in Canada, while also working on my stand-up comedy and music at any open mics I can get into. I would be happy to give a brief Artists talk outlining the project and the future role of Artists as we fight to stay relevant in a world where AI threatens all our livelihoods. Attached are some media provided to me from the Saskatoon food bank while my painting was in their space. It's not required, but as a working Artist I would greatly appreciate any honorarium (if your organization can afford it) to help me with my travel expenses and shipping cost for the painting. Let me know your thoughts, Sincerely, Jared Armando Sofoifa ps I'm the one in the pink hat. Also attached some additional paintings of mine.

Tomorrow (Sat Oct 28): Fixit Clinic at South San Francisco Library Grand Opening

by Peter Mui

Hi: Just a friendly reminder of tomorrow’s informal Fixit Clinic at the new South San Francisco Library grand opening: this looks like it’s going to be a really fun event so bring your friends and family e.g. see the two bands playing: https://www.ssf.net/departments/parks-recreation/library-parks-and-recreati… WHAT: New South San Francisco Library Grand Opening WHEN: Saturday Oct 28 anytime between 11:30AM and 3PM WHERE: 901 Civic Campus Way, South San Francisco https://www.ssf.net/departments/parks-recreation/library-parks-and-recreati… We hope to have regular repair programming at this Library soon but Saturday is more of a festive demonstration day and housewarming for the Library’s beautiful new Makerspace. There’s no need to commit to the whole day: just stop by when you can to enjoy the festivities, hang out with other Fixit Coaches, check out the new Library and help Makerspace Librarians Devin, Miriam Hart and Monte Gordon recruit more local Fixit Coaches. You don’t need to bring any tools – they’ve got some tools and sewing machines already – but feel free to bring something you want to take apart or sew as a demonstration. We might end up doing a few repairs if local people go home and bring things back. (And bonus points for wearing a Halloween costume (wink.)) The new Library is a pleasant 3/4 mile walk (or bike) along the Colma Creek Centennial Way Trail from the South San Francisco BART if you want to take public transit. See other options here: https://www.ssf.net/departments/parks-recreation/library-parks-and-recreati… Hope to see you there! -Peter Peter Mui @ Fixit Clinic www.fixitclinic.org – Fortifying exuberant, resilient communities through do-it-together fix-n-learn disassembly and discovery +1 408 647 5790 fixitclinic(a)gmail.com P.S.: And don’t forget our Fixit Clinic next Saturday at Pescadero Elementary School: sign up to Fixit Coach at http://bit.ly/inpersoncoachsignup WHAT: Fixit Clinic MVI (1006) Pescadero Elementary School WHEN: Saturday, Nov 4, 11AM-2PM WHERE: Pescadero Elementary School 620 North Street Pescadero, CA 94060 https://www.facebook.com/events/997718654780160/

[omni-consensus] PROPOSAL: BIPOC and Oppressed Gender Safe Space Committee (BOGSS)

by Jake

Dear Sudoroom, Today I voted in behalf of Sudoroom in favor of the MOP proposal, and they are now a member collective of Omni Commons. I emailed about them on April 20th but didn't hear anything back, so I hope everyone is okay with that decision. Today a proposal was introduced for a new committee to be formed at Omni Commons to value and protect the safety and interests of BIPOC/Non-Men. this is the original proposal in PDF form: https://omnicommons.org/pipermail/consensus/attachments/20220505/ab900701/a… this is an editable "cryptpad" and we are requested to "please leave comments in red" https://cryptpad.fr/pad/#/2/pad/edit/6IhZqwyXxN6CrEvtiljmnqTa/ actually this is a cryptpad copy of their document just for sudoroom, and I will forward our discussion to Rafiq to integrate our input. Other collectives are asking questions too, so if you want to be more engaged in the discussion, please join the [omni-consensus] list! But definitely make discussion here in the sudoroom list and get engaged. If Sudoroom members have concerns or objections, we need to communicate them promptly and work toward agreeable amedments. It is not an option to simply reject the proposal, but rather if you have specific concerns then we need to work with each other to address those concerns and come up with something agreeable. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yardena Cohen <yardenack(a)gmail.com> Hey all, I'm boosting this email with a new subject line so that it's clear to readers - this contains an important new proposal!!! Brief summary: this proposal forms a congress of BIPOC and non-men from all Omni's groups, who then elect a small committee which has its own seat on the board, its own delegate, and a few specific powers related to addressing racism and sexism. This is an important step towards making omni representative and accountable! This finally begins to put our Statement of Solidarity into action! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: rafiq.ali <rafiq.ali(a)protonmail.com> Date: Thu, May 5, 2022 at 12:16 PM To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> I added a little note at the beginning on our proposal and the events from 2 weeks ago. Happy to provide a short statement. In general, I appreciate the apologies made and think this can be a growing opportunity to forge a stronger collective. If it's possible, we can open discussion on the proposal this week if enough delegates have had a chance to review with the idea of approving at the next delegate meeting (or worst case, the one after). As mentioned earlier, we are proposing the creation of a safe space Committee (see attached). We appreciate and accept all feedback/comments/concerns. In struggle, Rafiq CLP
