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

Hi everyone,
This is a reminder that we’ll be meeting tonight at the usual place online
and in person at 8 PM.

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

Hi Sudoroom people!!
As Sudoroom's delegate to the Omni Commons it's my job to report back the
collective will of Sudoroom regarding important topics like: new members of
the Omni Commons! CLP is applying and we, Sudoroom, have to decide how we feel
about them joining the commons.
In two weeks, the delegates' meeting will happen and I will be asked to report
the position of Sudoroom. If we don't figure that out in an email thread or at
a sudoroom meeting, i will have to make something up!
Yet another reason to attend our awesome Sudoroom meetings on Wednesday
evenings at 8PM, on Jitsi or in person at the space!

Hi all, I'm forwarding this to omni's "consensus" list because it's a
proposal that affects the whole community!
I think CLP would be great as a new member collective at omni. They
are paying $200 for their current 10x10 storage unit and are willing
to pay omni the same for relatively unsecured space in the basement,
which is totally reasonable - generous even! They would also bring in
an active community of volunteers, which would be huge for omni.
Meeting Billy and Rafiq this weekend was a pleasure.
It looks like there are now several new member collective proposals in
the pipeline, which is awesome! I hope that we can use this
opportunity to practice onboarding new groups in a way that is as
frictionless and accessible as we can, and also invite this potential
new generation of omni member collectives to co-create the process
alongside us.
Our next delegates meeting is in ~2 weeks, April 7th. Typically for
important proposals (like a new member collective), we would have one
meeting to discuss details, give delegates another 2 weeks to bring
the proposal for discussion among their groups, and then come back for
(hopefully) full consensus at the next meeting, which would be April
21st.
I think it'd be great for folks to have conversations and ask
questions in the meantime so that we can all be prepared for the big
meetings once they happen. Thanks all :D

Hey everyone, this is Billy with Community Liberation Programs,
formerly known as Worker's Community Kitchen.
We are a socialist organization that creates dual power programs in
partnership with community members.
Currently we have a water delivery/ unhoused encampment commissary
program as well as a community garden program both in Hayward.
We have a program in Berkeley which works directly with the community
at People's Park to organize crucial material support and gear up in
defense of the upcoming eviction.
We also have a reading group starting in the SF Mission as a
preliminary step to bring folks together for a new program forming
there, and another working group investigating a new program centered
in Oakland Chinatown.
We are really excited to be invited to join the new phase at the Omni
and are particularly looking forward to supporting fund raising
efforts through event planning. We were already working on creating a
summer film series as a fund raising event for our organization and it
seems aligned to use this as an opportunity to support the Omni as
well.
Additionally, we were told that we could potentially move some stuff
around in the area pictured below to take up a roughly 10 x 10 space
for our storage. Currently we have a storage unit in Berkeley so we'd
love to move that over here and start being in the space more
regularly!
We can send a delegate to the regular meetings and are ready to start
event planning!
I have CC'd the primary CLP email address to make sure it is put in
the communication loop!
All the best!
Billy
