Fwd: Lease for "Art Studio" in 2141 Broadway

by Matthew Senate

Forwarding the sudo room lease previously sent through the hackerspaces.orgemail list. // Matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Matthew Senate <mattsenate(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 10:52 AM Subject: Fwd: Lease for "Art Studio" in 2141 Broadway To: "sudoroom(a)lists.hackerspaces.org" <sudoroom(a)lists.hackerspaces.org> Hey all, I'm planning to meet George at 4pm about Workshop Weekend, but this may be a convenient time to turn in the lease and get access to the "art studio" asap. Contacting Eddan about signing on behalf of Sudo Room. Please see Laurie's note below that we may have others on the lease, but insurance is simpler if it is simply Sudo Room (which I presume means those signatories on the Doing-Business-As aka Fictitious Business Name--Eddan and myself). // Matt ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Laurie Cooperman Rosen <lscoop(a)comcast.net> Date: Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 4:41 AM Subject: RE: Lease for "Art Studio" in 2141 Broadway To: Matthew Senate <mattsenate(a)gmail.com> Hi Matt-**** Attached please find a copy of the lease. I was extremely tired when I got home last night and just crashed out without finishing the lease. I’m so sorry about that! But I got up quite early as a result, so hopefully you’ll get this first thing in the morning.**** You’ll see that there is a little bit that we’re trying to work out with Utilities….since there is so much common area involved, there is a 6% load factor for your space which combines your exclusive space and a percentage of the common area space, which is obviously quite large. We are really not sure with what intensity the space will be used, nor the amount of electricity that will be used, since this will likely not be traditional office space, so we’re willing to start out at 4% (which would be fine if usage is mainly as a part-time space for people, without unusual amounts of electrical equipment or HVAC being used), but reserve the right to move it up to 6% if the load factor warrants it. In general, 1% of utilities amounts to an average of $30-$50/month, depending on the time of year, occupancy rate and overall tenant usage. If trash removal or janitorial for this space is or might become an issue, that’s something that we can discuss. **** We didn’t have an address for you so you should add that to the lease. If there are others responsible that you feel should be added that will be there on a regular basis that is fine; however, insurance would be best if it is a single policy covering the Sudo Room and all people that it might invite or allow to share its space with.**** Let me know if there are any other errors, inconsistencies or anything else in the lease that you might want to discuss. I will be home until mid-afternoon at 510-635-9500. **** I know that George is supposed to meet you later but we both have back-to-back acupuncture appointments on Piedmont Ave later. Mine is at 4:30 and George’s is scheduled for 5:30. If it’s possible to meet George sometime between 3 and 4:30 (whatever is most convenient for you) that would be great, because he will have to leave shortly after 5pm. Let us know what works for you.**** Thanks! Laurie**** ** ** **** ** ** *From:* Matthew Senate [mailto:mattsenate@gmail.com] *Sent:* Wednesday, November 07, 2012 9:45 PM *To:* travology(a)mindspring.com; lscoop(a)comcast.net *Subject:* Lease for "Art Studio" in 2141 Broadway**** ** ** Hi George and Laurie, After an online vote and our in-person meeting, we would like to sign a lease with you for the "Art Studio" space upstairs in 2141. If we can please clarify your most comfortable position on signatories of the lease, we would be happy to comply. Ideally, we would like to sign as the unincorporated association of Sudo Room (namely for instance that Eddan and I have signed to register Sudo Room as a ficitious business name). However, we can also sign as individuals if necessary, and would like to know how many folks you would allow to sign. Thanks, speak with you soon. George, I plan to see you Friday but we can receive the lease by email (or by paper) sooner. We would love to get access to the space upstairs as soon as possible. Thanks, Matt****

Common area unavailable Sunday 9/15

by Yardena Cohen

Our landlord has informed us that he's having his birthday party in the common area the night of Sunday September 15th. There is a raw food event scheduled for 3-5, and the party will start setting up soon after. It sounds like it will be a fancy catered affair. He's asked us to have the room as clean as possible beforehand - including finding temporary places for a lot of the furniture and things that usually live out there. He was not aware of other events scheduled for that night but I think bioinformatics is. Possibly others. We'll have to keep events inside Sudoroom and the Public School, or negotiate use of the vacant rooms.

After the party comes tha AFTA-Party!

by Eddie Che

Hi guys! So I just got into oakland and was treated with a big bag of trash outside the doorway. Excellent! Given the previous email I sent, a great time to test the theory. So going through it made this AWESOME thing, which is a miniature greenhouse (it's there, plant something in it) and gonna be sweet if hemp goes in. Do you think it's a good idea, that we could when we have a party have an "afterparty" in the morning where we put on a bunch of music and hack stuff or upcycle it, recycle it, and see how little we can get the stuff reduced to? (there's really not any such thing as trash (except WalMart), think cardboard, plastic bag, plastic, metal, aluminum, etC!) re negative value, some guy I guess actually got pretty emotional about it. So I hacked his message into the meme. <3 http://twitpic.com/dbh9zy So enjoy, and here's a video. Because I'm at the sudo room and can't get a working wifi+ sound (can we.. nvm), you don't get the one with nudity in it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcaGJ94HyYc -- Eddie Che https://sudoroom.org/wiki/User:EM_Che

Our Time Lapse prototype

by mattsenate＠gmail.com

Hey all, There was a link sent to the Nerds for Nature email list about using community photographs to collect data for natural spaces, parks, etc. You set up a single station with a guide for your camera, let folks take photographs with any device, gather them up, then use a photo stitcher to put together a timelapse. I think this is an excellent way to document moments at sudo negotiated by the consent of individuals and through human action, rather than a webcam and automated constant stream. Please leave the pedestal in its current position, there is tape on the floor so you can replace it if necessary. Thanks! // Matt

Dumpster diving opportunity

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Hi all, Not to add to the clutter at sudoroom, but I'd just like to point out that the big apartment building in Alameda that I've been living in will be closing down this weekend, and there might be some goodies to be found for th eenterprising dumpster diver. There's at least another dozen households that will need to move out during these last few days, and the recycling containers around the back are already overflowing. There's a set of nice filing cabinets sitting near the trash, and one of the recycling containers seems to have some chairs in it as well. As these last stragglers move out (I hear they've got all three elevators scheduled for moving companies from now until Saturday), I would expect a lot more stuff to appear. Might be worth keeping an eye on... Marina View Towers, 1100 Pacific Marina, Alameda<https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Marina+View+Towers,+1100+Pacific+Marina,+Ala…> Trash and recycling containers are around the back of the building and are unlocked. There is a security car that does the rounds very sporadically. Good hunting! Patrik

problem/solution

by rusty lindgren

Hey Guys, I feel like we have a problem and I want to put out there, along with what I think is a really reasonable and well thought out solution. *Problem: * In my opinion there is way too much stuff at SudoRoom, and it's just unfocused and messy. I think it's a roadblock to membership. We aren't equipped to deal with this much stuff, and we don't have room for people to be in the space. *Solution(s): * * * One solution is to have a party where we donate, recycle, and throw out things we don't need, in order to make room for a new design of the space that accomodates more members and makes the space more usable. As part of that we could hand out green stickers to put on things we want to keep, and if people put stickers on things, then we can keep them. We could also hand out a limited amount of red stickers of things that people want to see leave the space, and we could bring up those items at a meeting. We could pool resources to pay for a dumpster, and uhaul truck. Obviously, throwing things away would be a last resort, and donating would be preferred. I'm open to other solutions, but this is where I have gotten with other members so far. Fire away! Rusty
