After much thought, I think the best framing question for now is: what length of trial period can we tolerate? I would like to hear from all Sudoroom members currently blocking this proposal. Would you also block a 3 month proposal? 1 month? 1 week? What's the magic number? Thank you.

total idea: when we rent out the omni ballroom, a worker owned cooperative with valet parking

by Romy Ilano

since we have no parking here at the omni, when we pass fire code and rent out the ballroom there could be a total worker owned cooperative /collective that does valet parking they could even do services like washing the car --> i do not have the energy to start this but i thought it'd be a nice thought since people always complain about the lack of parking here. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Request to enjoy also your hospitality ;P

by Gotomancer

Hello SudoRoom crowd, I'll be taking off from Thailand in your direction and I would love to meet you! My plan is not to miss the Rent Party, and hopefully make it part of my birthday ;P The thing is that I'll be landing the 18th morning. Actually, I'm going to append here the message I sent to your member I found in C$ but has moved to Minnesota (at least most of it ;) >> ------ 'been reading your profile and you sound exactly like the kind of guy I want to meet there. Last year I read Little Brother and Homeland and that's the kind of crowd I like. I'll be landing in SF the morning of the 18th. I just realized that it will be my birthday! wow! I've never been in the American continent, so that would be a nice present! I helped funding a hackvillage in Catalunya 4 years ago (Ca la Fou <https://calafou.org/en>), and been a squatter in England. As I said before, this will be my first time in America, in the States and California!! It sounds amazing. I never really wanted to go to that country, but that area has a different aura. Many generations of activist, hacklabs (I know you call them hackspaces in there), coops, universities, technology... I don't know how long I'll be around there, but the main purpose is to go farming, if you know what I mean ;P Maybe you have some contacts also. So, will you be able to host me some days? ------- So that's how I got to know you, bouncing from info to info till I found out 'bout the SudoRoom. I've seen that you have Linux evening the 18th. Maybe you can convince me to switch back from Ubuntu back to Debian, now that Jessie is out. Anyway, the "please host me" request is still open. I'll be seeing you! Goto

does anyone know about the nyc network of worker cooperatives?

by Romy Ilano

http://www.nycworker.coop/policies#policies1 does anyone know about the nyc network of worker cooperatives? are the nobawc or omni folks connected to these people? I guess they are workers' cooperatives, not collectives. Just curious, they seem larger & more plugged into the government and employ people. I know someone who works with them -- would love to help make connections between SudoRoom, the Omni and the greater cooperative good. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

we hit another paywall on the sound wall ; ) need help!

by robb

as many of you may know, we are building a sound deflection wall on the south side of the ballroom. we are currently in need of 9 sheets of quietrock <http://www.lowes.com/pd_98765-89477-500_0__?productId=3069747> in order to finish the job. unfortunately, we aren't able to tap the general fund as meeting our lease obligations are more of a priority. please let us know if you or anyone you may know are interested in helping us acquire these needed materials. we have access to a truck to pick up the quietrock. thank you, ~r building working group

help this guy with his quantum fountain art project

by Jake

seems legit. anyone interested in helping this guy? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2015 19:56:45 -0700 From: Leo Madrid <leomadrid(a)gmail.com> To: jake(a)spaz.org Hello Jake, I retrieved your email address from the Sudo Room website. I'm in kind of a bind on an art project and am seeking some hacking assistance. I'm an artist, curator, consciousness researcher and novice inventor with a few designs for works of art that include quantum digital signal processing (electron tunneling). The signal emanates from a devise called a Random Event Generator and I need to use this signal to control a water pump with a digital controller (photos attached). The REG data is collected on an EEPC running Windows XP. I have the SDK for the REG and have installed the API and other files suggested by the manufacturer. All seems to be well with the PC and I am able to read and collect data, but for some reason I can't allocate a Com Port to an external devise and it will not recognize either of my controllers. Our challenge now is to create a pass-through signal from the PC to the pump via one of our controllers. I have a custom sensor controller that has an Arduino and Linix system computer combined on the same circuit board as well as a Raspberry Pi. My question is this; would it be possible to connect with you or another someone who is versed with this technology to help walk me though the setup? I know there is a HardwareHackNight on Tuesday but unfortunately I'm scheduled to work, but you can count on seeing me at future nights. I would be happy to come there any time but Tuesday night, or someone could come to my shop in West Oakland. I don't have a lot of money but if we could solve this issue I would be happy to make a donation to the Sudo Room or pay a consulting fee to whomever was of assistance. The exhibit we're preparing for is this Sunday and were planning on having the fountain up and running by Thursday. I'm confident that a person with the right skill-set could figure out this obstacle in just a few hours. Our project has recently gained the attention of local News as well as one of our team members being recently interviewed by the BBC. With success, we may get a followup feature story with the BBC. With success, we'll be making art and technological history. Any response would be appreciated. Leo Madrid Curatorial Director The P.e.a.c.e. Museum People Evolve As Consciousness Expands
