Hi everyone,
NOTE: watch out for traffic and parking! there is an event happening today and
Telegraph will be blocked off from 40th street through 51st street for Taste Of
Temescal (ew) https://temescaldistrict.org/tasteoftemescal/
SO IF YOU'RE PLANNING TO DRIVE, GET READY FOR AN ADVENTURE LOOKING FOR PARKING
IF YOU CAN EVEN GET TO THE OMNI...
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.
(if you want to eat something you should go outside)
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 Omni calendar (don't know how?) but it's on the
sudoroom page:
https://sudoroom.org/events/hardware-hack-night-2022-02-15/
that says 7PM but I try 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 link at the end of this email!
We don't always hear the doorbell and I don't answer it after 10PM anyway
because of diminishing returns :)
You should get on this sudoroom discuss mailinglist! click here:
https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/
and you should donate to sudoroom, monthly, by signing up here:
https://sudoroom.org/humans
and if you need to make a one-time donation, you can go here:
https://sudoroom.org/donate
bonus: join the jitsi videochat with the space tonight, and chat with each
other as well as a giant TV screen/speakerphone on the wall of the space:
https://meet.waag.org/turtlesturtlesturtles
(don't worry if you're the only one in the "room", others will join eventually,
and if the camera is pointed at the floor, just yell until someone comes and
talks to you and then ask them to aim it back up into the room)
see you soon!

OK for the next tuesday I'm going to create a full on vision board of my
projects so far at sudoroom and noisebridge
- what am i doing and what do i want to accomplish?
- What have i learned so far?
- what projects will i focus on for the future?
I am having so much fun with the light projection mapping projects, half
the fun is just messing around and being way more spontaneous than is
usually possible in an art project

I think my big goal is to create something finished that can be filmed that
will get other people excited to create and to use sudoroom equipment

Hi sudoers!
We had an unfortunate incident with the new protective coating on our roof
where the roof windows got coated as well. It's some latex type substance
and CCL tells us it isn't too difficult to get off.
Is anyone up for helping with a couple of hours of scraping tomorrow
(Saturday) from 3 pm to 5 pm?
I'll bring scrapers and we'll lay down some 2x4s across the windows so
people be in danger of falling through the glass.

hey i noticed that the "# of subscribers" and "newest message date" fields on
this wiki page are not updating:
https://omnicommons.org/wiki/Email_Lists
does anyone know how to fix this? Also, it would be nice if we could add a
feature where it would show which lists are private versus public, and maybe
even an archive link :)
I'm trying to introduce new people to the Omni and I want to give them context
to our mailinglists.
thank you

Got stuff on the Instagram account @sudo.room
- spoke to Josh gross - we should make a general folder for SudoRoom activity and populate it then curate stuff and put it on the blog
- have an s video hdmi for the projector - it works nice and is stronger than my laser light
- there are cute apps that do distortion so that we can do easy projection mapping live on the projector
- would like to get artists physically in the space
- josh had cool ideas about people doing teleconferencing and collaboration from other cities ! I’m burned out on zoom calls and long distance collaboration but he got the fires going again.
- still pondering the idea of a crude theme park
