1x idea : project with little girls learning electronics through jewelry

by Romy Ilano

This is sort of terrible and evil but we need moneCould someone do a 1x thing wihh little girls in pink where they learn electronics through jewelry ? This is harmful and terrible but it's what people like. After we take lots of photos and the girls Potential is destroyed (just kidding ) you can sneak them into the back and tell them they can play with unisex toys ! Sent from my iPhone

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 could harvest repeat visitors, but most likely we won't i think stuff that would qualify would be: - arduino music projects - raspberry pi proejcts - anythignt od o with kids - "gardening with kids", "learning to make games with kids", "kids making artificial kids", "artificial intelligence with kids", "kids creating mind control objects for parents" - something with a lilypad - a 3d printing project that's easy These 1x visitor kits should come in attractive boxes that are clean, and when they visit the space should be tidied up a bit i think we should probably do something like this once a quarter. it would be probably better than a party, or should be coordinated with a party.. ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

can anyone drop by and work on an arduino project in the next 2 weeks?

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 unique and a little different from the run of the mill "I worked on a n adruino/raspberry pi" project all over the internet lately... <3 much love, Romy ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

"Is Silicon Valley Saving the World or Just Making Money?" interested in doing an opinion piece on our blog similar to the nighttime?

by Romy Ilano

Could we feature four or five members similar to this nytimes piece? i will interview people, do some portraits, starting with troy ;) - we at SudoRoom come from a unique perspective of activism, social causes and art. I think we can add to the conversation. http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2015/07/22/is-silicon-valley-saving-th… Silicon Valley has “a greater capacity to change the world than the kings and presidents of even a hundred years ago,” one wealthy Facebook beneficiary supposedly told <http://www.gq.com/story/silicon-valley-is-a-lie?fb_ref=Default> a tech conference last year. Many tech luminaries think they are ”doing God’s work <http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/03/upshot/can-technology-save-the-world-expe…>.” But are the innovations coming out of the Bay area really creating a new and better world, or just making lots of money for a few people? ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Need someone to give tour to a volunteer coming tomorrow Sunday between 12pm -1pm.

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello all, Tomorrow Sunday a friend of mine is coming to visit and to volunteer at the Omni for first time. But, I just learned that I cannot be there due to another meeting that I have at 1pm in SF. My intention was to give her an introduction of whats the Omni about; and then to introduce her to Matt and Yar or whoever that is working on repairs of the building. She is doesn't know about construction, but if she is tough what to do, she would help with that. So.... is there someone interested to be there for her (Mary S.) between 12-1pm? I'd appreciated it, I double book myself. Many thanks in advance, and please let me know so I can tell her your name.

Hello All, I would like to announce that now we have 17 Asus Eee 1201n netbooks for us to use. Yay! :) This set of netbooks is part of the donation we received several weeks ago. Most of the netbooks had keyboard keys missing, others with broken displays, and one or two with bad hard disks. A THANK YOU NOTE: Many thanks to Hilary for not only donating brand new keyboards for each notebook, but also for installing them. Also thank you to Max-b and Alex for working on fixing and testing them.
