something "for kids"

by Romy Ilano

would anyone be interested in doing something "for kids" or people who are most likely 1x visitors? this is a large swathe of the public - a lot of cool people are simply curious about hackerspaces, but many who visit are probably just going to drop by, look at something cool like a raspberry pi or a 3d print out and then never come back again for donations etc. it would be cool to just make special projects just for these people and schedule "visiting sudoroom" day maybe from this group we … [View More]

by Romy Ilano

hey i know there are people who love sudoroom and who are busy are any of you working on any arduino or raspberry pi projects? would it be possible to make an appearance and blog about it? I think there's a general interest from mainstream people to see someone working on a raspberry pi project, bonus points if it's something *kid friendly.* if you could come in, work on it ,blog, and make something creative, I think it would really help the sudoroom! bonus points if you make it something … [View More]

MRI 3D Printing - Sudo Room

by Romy Ilano

https://sudoroom.org/wiki/MRI_3D_Printing So there are a lot of projects at Sudoroom that we don't really talk about that much projects that are started and not finished but they're still there and there's still a lot of documentation about them on the wiki In the next few weeks I would encourage everyone to mention any unfinished projects in the hopes that it might pick the interest of someone outside of Sudo Then inspire them or make them join Sudoroom or have them add to the project and … [View More]even finish it I'd like to put these projects in a little bucket and have them be a little more prominent on the page One example here I have is this link that I had we had a very lively discussion about owning your MRI scans and modifying them with free open source software and drinking them and then printing them on the 3-D printer The discussion was lightly and we didn't get that far unfortunately but we do have a bunch of MRI scans And we have a bunch of discussions on how to take the scans and use free software or very cheap software but mostly free software to create 3-D models that can be printed on the 3-D printing machines that are at Sudoroom This is really valuable information and it shouldn't be lost It can be used for students who are in high school or senior citizens were studying or anyone who just wants to know more about their body to learn how to use a 3-D printer into something tangible There is also an interesting active aside discussion which I should probably summarize and document and put on the wiki about how Americans don't always on their medical records and that the cost of these MRI scan sometimes aren't very clear or that it's not always crew the people that they're allowed to get a copy of the MRI scans and play with them That's an entire discussion that was very political and very interesting because that's what we discussed at Sudoroom We don't just go into technology we also discussed like broader social issues and even spiritual ones So I'm going to in the next few weeks like this up as one of the unfinished her ongoing projects on there might be someone who is 1000 miles away who can't even afford to get access to an MRI of a real person that was recently taken and they might be able to use my MRI and they can use that to him at least skills on the software and give your thoughts on the topic and do a creative project or just learn how the body is made or Orla just use this is like a more interesting example of a 3-D model I think the way that the MRI topic was handled was very unique to how we do things that Sidoroom We discussed a lot of social issues we talked a lot about politics we bring a lot of Susoroom into things but we also do have a good knowledge about business models since a lot of us are starting These conversation shouldn't be lost Keep on building and fighting the good fight not every project that we do is finished but not every unfinished project is unfinished forever Sent from my iPhone [View Less]
