A new massive projector donated to SudoRoom

by Romy Ilano

We have a 14,000 lumen sanyo projector that was donated to SudoRoom. This thing is bright enough to play in office light and possibly even daylight! It's so cool, thanks to Jake and the others for bringing this baby. We were able to find a DVI HDMI cable, and we tested projecting some Kara walker on the walls. https://www.flickr.com/photos/miromi/52015867232/in/dateposted/ I mean, if we can project this even in a bright room, this would be really cool! It's fun to hack alongside others … [View More]

by Romy Ilano

I realized that over the years at SudoRoom, it was always important for me to write down what I was doing. But I never had a proper engineering daybook! Even though I learned so much here! So going forward, I'm going to keep a personal daybook. I think it will help me with my blog posts, as I tend to take notes as cartoons https://www.flickr.com/photos/miromi/52017624127/in/photostream/ Here's a sneak peek at my next blog posts. I'm very interested in communicating what I learn through … [View More]

I sent this out before and I didn't get any objections, so I will represent sudoroom as being apathetic or in-support of this proposal unless I hear otherwise.

Hardware Hacking Tuesday tonight

by Jake

Hi everyone, you're getting this email either because you're on the sudoroom discuss email list, or because I BCC'd you directly. Tonight I'll be hosting Sudoroom for 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.

hammond organ speaker

by Jake

the Hammond organ with the Leslie speaker is amazing! But i know the speaker paper is chewed up and decayed to hell and needs a recone. Here's a video of Marc playing it: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CcCaiMRDEKU/ Where can we find parts for a recone kit? I volunteer Arlo to do the reconing, he did a great job with a giant subwoofer recently. What model speaker is it? Or do we just have to find a reconing company that can send us a custom cone and surround according to measurements we make?… [View More]
