Counter culture idea

by Jake

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 15 Sep 2017 02:47:30 +0000 (UTC) From: Eric Reiter <unquant(a)yahoo.com> Hello Counter Culture and Sudo-room people. My current research effort is toward electromagnetic medicine. In past years I automated an enzyme reaction and applied tuned electromagnetic fields, from radio-frequency to ultraviolet in search for a non-thermal reaction rate effect. Now I am concentrating on millimeter wave tuning to promote a gene expression or enzyme reaction. I seek collaboration with a biologist to perform experiments in-vitro and later in-vivo. I plan to visit Counter Culture Lab this Tuesday evening and will elaborate on my resources and strategy. Attached is the microwave enzyme stimulator under construction in my lab. I have additional projects that are developed but beg for collaboration: Resolution of wave-particle duality (this worked, see link), ultimate connectors, slanted spine bookbinding, and musical instrument inventions. Thank You, Eric Reiter Pacifica CA 650 738 9255 website: Resolution of Wave-particle Duality - Threshold Model Physics - Unquantum Effect Experiments and theory toward resolving the wave-particle-duality problem in quantum mechanics. http://unquantum.net/

Re: [sudo-discuss] [Noisebridge-discuss] T-962A Reflow Oven Firmware Upgrade!

Do you have any reference links for the upgrades? We have the same over at Sudo and I've noticed it's pretty inconsistent. Wondering if we should pursue upgrading as well.

Anarchist Bookfair and BASTARD Conference this weekend

by Laura Turiano

Hi everyone, A final update/reminder for this weekend's activities. The Bookfair and Bastard conference will be using the entrance hall and ballroom this weekend and those spaces need to be completely clear to fit the bookfair tables. I'll be working on moving stuff today and tomorrow if anyone has some time to help out. Message or email me to find out when I will be at the Omni. The set up crew from the Bookfair will be here Friday night. These events are a great opportunity for collectives to share info with activists. Omni doesn't have an official table, but Julian has volunteered to coordinate one that will be located somewhere else in the building. Thanks Julian! He sent an email about this a day or so ago. Please be in touch with him to take a tabling shift or give him materials from your collective that you would like to have at the table. I would love to see some kind of activities going on in Sudo and CCL to showcase what you all are doing. Collectives and related groups that DO have Bookfair tables are Phat Beets, TIL, GWS, Stinney Distro. FNB will be serving. If you are interested inn helping any of them with their tables, please contact them directly. If you would like to help out with Omni tasks during the Bookfair, let me know. If you want to help during BASTARD Conference, Katrina is the point person. - Laura

I found myself chatting with Joseph Coffland of Buildbotics ( https://buildbotics.com/) and he's interested in checking out the space next week. Sounds like a possible demo of their fantastic looking CNC controller? Should be a good time, I'll plan on being there. Cheers, Morgan

Status of SR website?

by aaronco36

Hey all, Tried reaching main website https://sudoroom.org several times this afternoon and evening. It doesn't seem to be responding. Also tried..... - using 'sudo ping www.sudoroom.org', it times out and doesn't complete - ditto " for 'sudo ping 104.236.181.202' " - 'sudo traceroute www.sudoroom.org' reaches last router digitalocean-ic-302451-sjo-b21.c.telia.net (62.115.34.18) in 24.010 ms 23.958 ms 24.266 ms and then doesn't complete its roundtrip The fact that you all may be receiving this email _separately_ rather than from the sudo-discuss list also indicates something is wrong. Any idea of what's going on and/or what needs to be done? Best, -Aaron aaronco36(a)sdf.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.org

proposal: get space ready by sep 15th, host open house on 16th?

by Jenny Ryan

Greetings sudo! We've had some great momentum these past few weeks, especially on Tuesday nights, organizing our resources and separating the cruft. On September 16th, the Omni will be hosting the Bay Area Anarchist Bookfair, and thus the building will be swarming with awesome radicals from all over. I propose having the space looking spacious and beautiful by September 15th. Abe suggested this would be a great opportunity for us to host some workshops in the back. At last night's mesh meeting, we discussed having a mini-BYOI (Build Your Own Internet) workshop, and announce the larger one we'll be hosting the following Saturday for those interested in learning more. The Bookfair runs from 10am-6pm. Robb and I are thinking we should organize an afterparty. Not sure if there is anything already planned, but it makes sense and would be hella fun :) Thoughts / volunteers to host an open house, afterparty and/or some other workshops that day? -- Jenny Help open a people-powered common space in Oakland, California! https://omnicommons.org/donate `~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~` "Technology is the campfire around which we tell our stories." -Laurie Anderson "Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it." -Hannah Arendt "To define is to kill.

Fwd: [omni-discuss] Anarchist Bookfair at Omni 9/16

fyi ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Laura Turiano <scylla(a)riseup.net> Date: Wed, Aug 30, 2017 at 3:16 PM Subject: [omni-discuss] Anarchist Bookfair at Omni 9/16 To: "discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org" <discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Hey Commoners, I want to make sure everyone knows that we have a big all-day event on Saturday 9/16 that is an opportunity for collectives to let politically aligned folks know what is going on at the Omni. The Anarchist Bookfair is an event we have wanted to host for a long time and I would love to see our collectives have a presence. The fair will be using the entire entrance and and ballroom floor area, but there are other things you can do if you don't have an official table. Omni doesn't have one :/ I encourage you to: - set up a table in either of the mezzanine areas with information about what you are doing and how people can get involved - have copies of your brochures ready to put out. If you aren't going to be there, give them to another Omni group to display The Sudo/CCL area will probably have a lot of people walking through to check it out. It would be great to have people there ready to talk about their group and the Omni. See you at the Bookfair!

sudoroom needs bandsaw blade plate

by Jake

i am ordering repair parts for the sudoroom bandsaw, including "bandsaw tires" (rubber rings that ride on the rollers inside the saw so the blade doesn't fall off anymore) but it's still missing the "throat plate" or "table insert" which is a square plate with a slot cut into it, and it's what holds up the material being cut. it needs to be 1/8" thick and 1.5" square, and then we can use the bandsaw to cut the slot into it (that's the easy part) it looks a lot like this, except it should be made of metal ideally: https://cdn.instructables.com/FJG/0GY9/H82U8CS5/FJG0GY9H82U8CS5.LARGE.jpg however if it's made of plastic or acrylic or something not as strong as metal, it will have to be thicker than 1/8" (except at the edges where it has to sit on the shelf) here's a video of someone making one from scratch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsWLQDdWlG0 can someone make this plate? ideally out of aluminum, i think. -jake

Fwd: [Noisebridge-discuss] Glider Ink - a hackerspace graphic novel

by Marc Juul

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Paweł Chojnacki <alxd(a)alxd.org> Date: Sun, Aug 20, 2017 at 9:30 AM Subject: [Noisebridge-discuss] Glider Ink - a hackerspace graphic novel To: noisebridge-discuss(a)lists.noisebridge.net Hey! Last year I realized that the notion of hackerspace and hackers-as-makers, not just blackhat anarchists is totally absent from the mainstream culture. Watch Dogs 2 had a huge opportunity to change this, but they only presented warring gangs and vigilantes trying to bring down evil corporations. After gathering some stories from European, US and African Spaces I decided to create Glider Ink - https://glider.ink/ , a fictional story based on real events and characters I met. I have already managed to find the most common archetypes and create five main characters based on them: Inventor, Activist, Troll, Anarchist and Maker. I'd like to focus on the community aspect and how we can create things together, as opposed to the Silicon Valley lone genius concept. Even though I originally wanted to set the story in Poland, I might be changing that to some more or less defined European city. Seeing hackers from all over the world, especially Kenya or Philippines I really don't want to enforce the stereotype that all of them needs to be white. I'm still working on a script which would be enjoyable both for actual hackers and people who haven't heard about them before. All of my work - licensed on Creative Commons - is available at https://wiki.glider.ink/ . You are welcome to comment on it, share your own stories and ideas! If you'd like to register on the wiki, just ping me. Sadly, I found it that very few artists are up to the challenge of trying a de-facto new genre, creating a positive outlook on technology outside of dark cyberpunk. If you know any graphic novel illustrator who might be interested in working on this project (fully paid of course), I'll gladly meet them! Art styles I'm looking for: https://wiki.glider.ink/_detail/art/characters/suzanne/ kimiooon_suzanne_notebook_dark.jpg?id=art https://wiki.glider.ink/_detail/art/characters/suzanne/ kimiooon_suzanne_shrug.jpg?id=art https://wiki.glider.ink/_detail/art/characters/amanda/ caylachicovsky_amanda_face.jpg?id=art https://wiki.glider.ink/_detail/art/characters/robert/ lhuvik_robert_standing.jpg?id=art and the full project's moodboards: https://wiki.glider.ink/project/artstyle/moodboards Best, alxd _______________________________________________ Noisebridge-discuss mailing list Noisebridge-discuss(a)lists.noisebridge.net https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/noisebridge-discuss

founder of the hacker/maker movement Tool Sale

by Jake

Nick Bertoni created a community workspace where people could come and build and learn with all types of tools and technology, mostly in the 1980's and 1990's. He also collected a lot of tools and materials, including an electronics lab, from which I already acquired stuff for sudoroom. This weekend you should go to the tool sale, even if you don't need anything, just to see all the awesome stuff. And certainly if you need something, no matter how weird or rare it is (or you never knew it existed) it will be there. I can tell you that the Sorensen DCR 20-25B works perfectly since I repaired it years ago. It's a 20V 25A regulated power supply. Attached is the Craigslist post for the sale, which will take place 10am-4pm saturday and sunday. It was written by a family friend who is an antiques dealer so it may not highlight the electronic / pneumatic elements in terms of what some people in maker-centric circles might be interested. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/gms/6268543313.html

DIY Safe Solar Eclipse viewing glasses

by aaronco36

Anyone here know how someone could make their own solar eclipse glasses in order to safely view the August 21st solar eclipse?? Was thinking of using multiply-folded metallized film laminate that's found in common antistatic bags for a filter. AFAICT, 5X foldings of the 2-ply antistatic bags -- 10 layers in total -- similar to those described at http://www.all-spec.com/Catalog/Static-Control/ESD-Safe-Bags/Static-Shieldi… and at http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/mediawebserver?mwsId=SSSSSuUn_zu8l00xM82xlx_eN… seem to _completely_ block out all sunlight. All local stores in the general SudoRoom part of the East Bay that I've so far contacted are already out of stock or are running very low on manufactured and properly ISO-certified eclipse glasses, e.g., those type of places listed at www.yahoo.com/news/where-buy-eclipse-glasses-total-130000190.html Have also seen the warnings about buying counterfeit glasses, e.g., at http://abcnews.go.com/US/avoid-buying-counterfeit-solar-eclipse-glasses/sto… TY for good suggestions, -A aaronco36(a)sdf.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.org

getting rid of sewing machine and embroidery machine tables

we've talked about this before but.. does anyone object to selling/giving away the giant JUKI sewing machine table AND embroidery machine table? i wish we could keep the latter (it's really cool when it works!) but since I haven't been able to get it to work (and i tried) i'm ready to give up on it. if nobody objects or offers a plan, i'll post them on craigslist and get them out of the space, for free if necessary. -jake

Missing microscope lenses

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Hi all, If you have borrowed any of the microscope objectives or eyepiece lenses from CCL, please return them as soon as possible. If you see any microscopes sitting out, that is likely because they are in use on a regular basis, and they will be sorely missed if not in working order! Please don't remove parts from lab equipment without checking with someone first. So, please return our lenses - no questions asked. We have a pretty good idea exactly when they disappeared, but we'd rather not have to do the detective work to figure out who was where when. Let alone having to install cameras or lock up all of our lab gear, which defeats the purpose of having a community lab. Thanks! Patrik

Across the street from OSH Hardware and Berkeley Bowl West, and on the same block as Discount Fabrics, The Shipyard and Urban Ore, as well as easy street parking and access from I-80. Safe industrial west Berkeley neighborhood right on the border with Emeryville and Oakland. Ideal uses are art, electronics, office, etc. No heavy fabrication please, but light is ok. We want to avoid anything creating lots of noise or fumes. Optional access to large open 2-story area for occasional projects with loading dock. We have blazing-fast gigabit internet with symmetrical pipes, so can be a good choice for big data, such as video production. 24 hour access permitted, but must respect nighttime quiet. Living in either space definitely not permitted. First space is semi-open 21' x 13' with 2-story ceiling and large amount of natural light. Has existing workbench and plenty of power (240v/120v). $390 / month including utilities (reasonable electrical use, internet, trash). (Surfboards not included!) Second space is 18' x 15' in a very private location on the second floor. Has openable window overlooking Ashby. Only 120v electrical. $490 / month including utilities (reasonable electrical use, internet, trash). The desk and drafting table pictured are included, but can be removed if desired. (sorry, the dressers are not included). Please email for details or to arrange a visit!

Fwd: Join us for Microscopy 101 & 401 class at CCL Sat morning!

by Patrik D'haeseleer

*Join us for our Microscopy meetup tomorrow morning at CCL <https://www.meetup.com/Counter-Culture-Labs/events/241864024/>! *We'll have something for newbies and experts alike... We'll give a tour of the microscopes we have available at CCL, show you which one to use for which purpose, how how to use them, and which ones to prioritize for repair. Feel free to bring in your own scope if you have one, and we'll be happy to teach you how to use it (and/or diagnose what's wrong with it...) For the microscopy experts, we'll also go over the fancy super-resolution STED microscope we've just been donated by BioCuriuous! This kind of equipment would normally start in the $200K range. A dedicated team at BioCurious spent more than a year building this one from scratch <https://sites.google.com/site/biocuriousmicroscopewiki/>, starting from the microscope engine out of a donated GA IIx DNA sequencer - a piece of machinery that probably cost well over $500K itself when it was new just a few years ago. A truly unique piece of equipment. STED microscopy <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STED_microscopy> is one of the techniques used to break the diffraction limit in optical microscopy, allowing visualization of subcellular structures that were previously only accessible using electron microscopy! We are looking to build an expert user group around this new instrument, so come join us and help us get it up and running to do some awesome science with it! Patrik

bicycles and parts gathering in sudoroom

by Jake

there is a bicycle frame without wheels, a fender, and five wheels and three tires floating around sudoroom, as well as two bicycles that do not belong to anyone who is here right now. I don't think people should be using sudoroom as a place to store their vehicles, and large projects like bicycles should not be stored here except for very limited situations like a project that takes more than one day. People have been working very hard on cleaning up the space and the electronics waste pile is huge. It will be cleared out soon and I hope we can deal with the bicycles too, and then we can start looking at other large items like the embroidery machine and juki sewing machine table, and get those out of here. If anyone knows whose bicycle frame and wheels these are, or whose whole bicycles these are being stored here, please ask them to take them somewhere else when they're not visiting sudoroom. what do people think of that? -jake

Event this Saturday: 4Love, Science and Liberation

by Julio Rios

Hey Commoners, I'll be helping out with this event Saturday morning 10am-1pm. stop by the ballroom if it sounds interesting to you. How can science be used as a tool for liberation? Scientists and community organizer, Kendra Krueger, guides us through a process of reclaiming science as a tool for personal and social liberation. We’ll take a look at decolonizing the language of our current scientific paradigm and exploring the intersections of science, social justice, art and intuitive technologies. Using movement, games and physics we’ll reintegrate the analytical and intuitive mind and discover new methods to liberate our mind, body and spirit through knowledge, knowing and finding out.
