Hey everyone!
I almost missed this email because most of the messages received on it are
spam, but it looks like a production company is interested in using the
space as a location for an interview with former google engineer Blake
Lemoine.
You can see my response below. I can’t see any reason why we wouldn’t be
able to accommodate this request. I also asked if they could check if Blake
wanted to hang around and chat with members. If they decide to go forward I
suggest that we request a voluntary donation in line with typical space
rental fees. Is anyone else interested in possibly meeting with Blake?

Hi there,
we filmed at the counterculture lab a few years ago with Patrik and Josiah
for German public broadcasting cultural TV 3sat (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xflXGdd_n6) and I liked it a lot at the
time.
Now we’re working on a documentary about the developments in AI. I’m
trying to organize an interview with Google engineer Blake Lemoine. He’s
the one who thinks Googles AI has become sentient. I’d like to do the
interview via Skype while I am in Germany and he is in the US. Cameramen
filming on both ends.
Is there a chance for this interview to happen in your sudo-house in
Oakland? It would just be two people: Blake and the camera operator.
The date is set for next Tuesday morning, the 2nd of August at 10:30 am and
won’t take longer than an hour.
Thank you for considering!
Best, Ingolf

Hey everyone!
I have an ornate lamp, where the lights are all inside glass flowers, and a
few of them broke. I'd like to replace them by making a silicone mold of
one of the intact ones and then casting it in resin.
Making the mold seems straightforward, but I've never actually cast resin
before, and I'm looking for advice on what resin to use. The bulbs are
halogen bulbs, so they get fairly hot, and the lamps are pretty close. I'm
guessing that if the resin can withstand 200 F they should be fine.
Does anyone know whether this is feasible? Can anyone recommend a resin
that is clearish and can withstand moderately high heat for long periods of
time?
Here are some pictures. They're not great, but they give you a sense of
what I'm looking to replace: https://photos.app.goo.gl/cPeqyw9ZpQfBufwi9

Hello, sudo room
I am a Student visiting America from South Korea and participating in a George Washington University program for entrepreneurs. My team is researching safe and cost effective filaments for use in 3D pens and printers.
I am writing this email because I would like to talk to you about your experiences with 3D pens and 3D printers.
I know you're busy, but if you have about 15 minutes, I'd like to Zoom meet and hear the details.
please email me back at your convenience.
Thank you.
I saw Juliana build a cool twitterbot!The women's programming night looks like it's going really well.
Andrew has a cool resin sculpture. Would love to see it!
Me, I met some cool people at SudoRoom during hardware hack night. we chatted about Blender and I got to see some other software for light projections, but I'm moving on to a phase where I can create my own 3D models, hopefully to print them out and also animate them. I also started on doing world building in Blender using historical artifacts. There are a lot of 3D scans of historical objects that you can download for free from SketchFab https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/combination-padlock-756916ba62b7489294fc9c8…
SketchFab has a post on all the open access eminent domain 3D models they have been putting up. https://sketchfab.com/blogs/community/sketchfab-launches-public-domain-dedi…
I'm excited about NYC next week! I'm going to be hanging out with Mitch who's in town for the HOPE conference.
For fundraising at SudoRoom - so Far I'm thinking the coworking idea, and the study space for UC Berkeley students sounds like a good run.
I guess I should drop in on a meeting one of these days!
