those who want to come hack on whatever in person, or through telepresence of
any means you can invoke.
Remember that Omni Commons and Sudoroom policy is presently that
EVERYONE MUST WEAR A MASK AT ALL TIMES INSIDE THE BUILDING.
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 haven't put it on the calendar but i'm planning 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 at the beginning of this email!
We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it after 10PM anyway
because of diminishing returns :)

Rick aka 'Glass on Wheels' who originally installed the CCL/Sudo skylights
will be coming by Friday morning to assess leaks in these skylights.
The work will be limited to walking on the roof and visual inspection, so
there should be no disruption to CCL or Sudo's operations during this
task.
I will ask Rick to focus on assessing leaks that are coming through the
panes, as opposed to leaks sourced from the outer perimeter of the
skylights (which should have already been recently addressed by the roofer,
mike).
- It might be helpful to know the kind of paint CCL washed the outside of
the skylight windows with (some time ago), if someone recollects that..?
- It might be helpful for someone from CCL / Sudo to be on-hand to discuss
specific leak areas, in the event I don't remember them all.
Best,
David
In case anyone is interested, HOPE (Hackers On Planet Earth) conferences happen every two years in New York City. This year is: A New HOPE, 22-24-July. It's a really nice conference (but, I'm biased, since I'm one of the main organizers).
The first batch of tickets is on sale as of this afternoon:
https://store.2600.com/products/tickets-to-a-new-hope
This will be a really wonderful conference, full of diverse talks, workshops, art, music, food, and wonderful people.
You can get a free ticket if you submit a talk or workshop or panel that is accepted into the program. So, please submit a cool proposal! Submissions aren't very formal, and only take a few minutes.
https://www.hope.net/cfp.html
Cheers,
Mitch

Thoughts on SudoRoom lately -
- any way to link SudoRoom projects with the bike party? The sf bike party, San Jose bike party, critical mass and the east bay bike party?
Thinking on it through zines
- enjoyed hanging out and reading the Forrest mims books. Thinking of redrawing them for our own version in one sheeters!
- Rps collective reopened since I was last at SudoRoom. A collaboration would be nice with them and SudoRoom!!!
- since I was last at SudoRoom there’s a Bart extension to San Jose that hooks up directly to the san Jose flea market. San Jose is bikeable now!
Integrating nature
- since I was last at SudoRoom I got a lot more into surfing. Wondering how to link the beach and nature - there’s so much fun stuff about the Bay Area and nature and citizen science how yo bring it together ? I dislike hanging out sitting at desks more and more when I’m not working
Nice to be back!

I am on my way to mentor a fabulous talented sweet artist at 5 this evening with her peices and will receive anyone as they are with their lasering skills from 6pm till at least 10pm as needed by the community. A few other people might show up. Im flexible to mentor any project on plain thin 1/8 in birchwood, up to 1/4 in mdf, cardboard and sometimes 1/4 in plywood or 1/4 in acrylic(maybe thicker sometime but its too stinky!)
If you are new or recently back to lasering please do read the wall of text about the needs for care and safety and preparation and materials selection that I posted in volume 111 issue 17.
Feel free to join the view at https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles, <https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles> though it will be loud much of the time. I can evaluate a good time to give a quiet overall intro, possibly at 6pm or whenever people new to lasering show up. Feel feel free to alert us on turtles that you are at the front door or ring the bell or message one of us if you have out num already.
If you join the vid chat to get in the door we will see you in less than a minute and answer the door in one more.
About the fume extractor, we have a fan ventilation system, but someone was kind enough to widen the angle that it gets to the roof and now it seems almost 50% as stinky as before. We need help with an engineering problem of proper width and second fan specs. I thought I could get to NB to ask the geeks there but its no longer as easy to get to. David gave me a bunch of specs that yeah I cant remember. I am better at communicating these things, can someone with an engineering or physics background step in to help us?
Its gonna be real fer sure. Games but no more games ye feel me? Brace yourselves this is tracting to be more lit but earth based than ever before. Stand in your position and do your thing. Represent the heart, and new opporunities for the heart and money, economy, the earth and our present placement representing good will amongst the all the peoples human and not.
Multipass!
When I was last at SudoRoom I was more into skateboarding but now it’s surfing and snowboarding 😸 I broke my ankle skating and ended up trying to do a 3D Print-out of my ankle cat scan. It wasn’t successful but that’s once if my favorite attempts there
I hate being frozen a t a computer but it’s necessary for flow state . Is there a way to weave the outside with the inside or is that even desirable ? I was on some 6 hour bike rides the past few months and wanted to draw or reflect in nature not necessarily at a computer desk - no internet but it would be nice to do programming on top of a remote mountain away from noise and ads
The space is so well organized now !
Thinking about projectors and doing art projects with cartoonists I know. I guess I’ll chat with Jake because we have 3D projectors ? There’s old art projects with projected art featuring “mixed reality “
It’d be cool to do that in SudoRoom! Or noisebridge . There are a lot of cheesy Instagram friendly museum of ice cream type immersive environments itd be fun to do something more artsy or electronics focused

Lately I’ve been printing out larger art pieces on color laser printers. I just tape the stuff together.
I guess I’d like to make big cardboard figures eventually (will have to glue them to cardboard backing and stand up)
Saw stuff like this at the old Rps
Here’s something from a carhart store in Berlin many years ago

Hello Sudoers
I am happy to announce that I finally came full circle with my laser skills to be able to offer mentorship to Sudo Roomers.
I have been for several months taking my lasering from user on one machine to understanding multiple and some over-all skills, drilling down to what we have in our blessed upgraded "Chinese Red and Black" (!)(no really that is the open shared handle/keywords).
We have access to an amazing machine that just so happens to be one of the more common and reliable "off brand" (ie knock off of possibly "OmTech") machines), so sorta kinda open source (limited documentation). It has been upgraded I think to 100wso is actually more powerful that it was originally. It currently works fairly well.
After many hours and tears I discovered and rectified the Red and Black's cracked lense and mirror alignment issues that contributed to its past lack of power. (Always a work in progress)
I have been working with machine for about 2 months now wanting to share its baddass-ness, but needing to maintain and learn about the Queen.
I had been having trouble engraving to make it look better than a blasted out version or any pic. I am not able to generate a photographic quality engraving, but I am now finally able to make a metaphor of the original and also success with cutting 1/8 birchwood, 1/4 in MDF, acrylic, and 1/4 in plywood with many passes, I am now ready to share my findings with the community and give various versions of a "laser training" to Sudo.
For this training we will only be cutting 1/8 Birchwood or 1/4 MDF. In the future we can work with Acrylic or late if everyone else has gone home (stinky!).
We will focus on introduction to laser cutting safety, generating viable files, and specs to work with various materials.
I have worked for months and months now to get to this point so please understand coming into this how valuable this moment is to have access to such a powerful machine. Please try to come to at least 3 of these mentorships and expect to watch some videos and/or read some material before being confident lasering. There are so many ways to not do the appropriate thing for the cutter. It is important to know exactly why you are choosing what settings you do. It is imortant to maintain high awareness as you proceed from design to cutting. A wrong move could scorch the mirrors, the lense, ruin your art, or start a small fire (which could ruin the machine). Improper use can also cause undo air quality issues that also could be avoided (no vinyl ever!!!)
It is with all these things in mind and great respect for the tool and the community that training and constant awareness is needed by community members with every cut.
I am now able to teach a comprehensive beginner level training. I will do it in "Mentor style" at first, taking in the skill levels of whoever shows up, possibly culminating in a joint class with a professional.
Keep in mind even "simple cuts" can take much editing to be ready, and can take much time to cut. I can only teach from practical short example files to start, and report back from longer more ornate projects that I have finished.
With this in mind, if you expect to cut something on a non-acrylic focused Laser Lunes, please bring your own 1/8 in Birchwood slab from Blick for ~$6.00 for a 12/24 in sheet or 1/4 in MDF from McFee's lumber. I must prioritize these materials for the first few classes, as other materials take 2-5x more cut passes and may stink quite a bit more.
I will select simple SVG files from the community to cut in the mentorship, and can advise on improving your vector files (Inskape!)
I will continue to hold Laser Lunes mentorship Mondays, 6pm -10/late, and will also have an acrylic night soon. Please consider donating to Sudo Room on behalf of this class: https://sudoroom.org/donate/
(Also one could bring some extra 1/8 Birchwood from Blick to share with future Laser Lunes Mentorship Mondays/the Room.)
Multipass!

I do think it would be great if we had a sudoroom-sponsored event in the
ballroom on National Organ Day (not that I believe in Nations) where people
come in and play the organs and pianos for each other in the ballroom.
It can be a practice / lead-up session for International Organ Day/Week in
April, when we can have a more formal event with rollerskates and inlines.
I can think of a few people who i'd like to hear play.

I texted with Lovi the other day, who is still a pending member of Sudo,
and Lovi mentioned they would be willing to deep-clean Sudo's
deeply-spoiled fridge, if paid $25/hr cash and supplied with the
various means to do so.
To my knowledge, no Sudoer has voluntarily pursued cleaning this fridge for
the last four months or so after the request went out. It was also insisted
that the fridge be kept and not dumped (Patrik thought it was unsalvageable
due to the near-certainty of mold growing in inaccessible places.) The
fridge incubated a large quantiy spoiling food, unplugged, for an unknown
number of months during the pandemic.
Anyway - as Lovi is not yet a Sudo member, as a Sudo member I would like to
propose that Sudo take Lovi up on their offer, and supply:
- an electrostatic air purifier, and a UV-C light bulb to help passively
de-mold in the first pass in all compartments. The total cost for both is
expected to be <$80.
- bleach, cleaning agents, sponges, paper towels, etc in the second pass.
Expected cost is <$20 in the event Omni's cleaning closet lacks these
items.
In terms of active labor I believe at least four hours should be budgeted
at a minimum, = $100.
Expected cost: $180.
Contingency: $20.
Total: $200.
In return - if Lovi still has capacity and inclination to engage with this
task - I would propose that Lovi provide a do-by date to complete the work,
for the benefit of all sudoers who wish to once more preserve edible food
in a sanitary fashion.
If anyone objects to this proposal, lmk..?
Best,
David
