Hi all, I've been meaning to design and laser cut a contraption for our Science Sideshow at the Cal Academy NightLive LIVE <http://www.calacademy.org/nightlife/nightlife-live-june> event this Thursday evening, but I'm rapidly running out of time. Anyone able to give me a hand? Basically, I found these vases that look just like giant test tubes - long cylinder with a rounded bottom. So now I want to make a giant test tube rack, and have them sitting at our booth with some food color and … [View More]

I'm not sure our universe contains big enough N's or O's to respond to this appropriately.

Digital Rights in Libraries Un/Conference at Noisebridge !

by April Glaser

Hi friends, I'm writing to let you all know about an un/conference at Noisebridge on June 29-30, Digital Rights in Libraries. You're all super invited, and we also have a call for volunteers (keep reading)! We've got some killer speakers lined up: https://libraryfreedomproject.org/digital-rights-in-libraries/digital-right… For more info, please check our our press release and poster that I've pasted below! Also, the Library Freedom Project has had some fun media lately (here <http://www.… [View More]onthemedia.org/story/librarians-vs-patriot-act/?utm_source=local…> and here <http://www.thenation.com/article/206561/librarians-versus-nsa> and here <http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2015/06/03/usa_freedom_act_before_s…>), if you're curious. Additionally and importantly, we could use a few technology trainers to help with some of our open sandbox privacy tools sessions. We know a lot of librarians want to build some skills, and so in these sessions we were hoping to have ample technology trainers available to help participants learn as much as possible. The times we're looking for people to come by and help are: Monday, June 29 @ 2-3 Monday, June 29 @ 4-5 Tuesday, June 30 @ 2:30-3:30 Tuesday, June 30 @ 5:30-6:30 Let me know if you might be available or have any questions. Also let me know if you know someone else who might be interested. Or anything at all. Peace. And thanks a million. <3 Oakland. April --- DRiL *Librarians Convene With Leading Anti-Surveillance Advocates and Technologists In San Francisco to Defend Digital Rights â June 29-30, 2015* Librarians, technologists, and privacy activists and are gathering in San Francisco on June 29-30 to strategize about initiatives to protect reader privacy, reform digital lending, combat censorship, and champion access to information technology in light of emerging concerns over government surveillance, censorship, and other forms of electronic exploitation of personal data. The two-day event <https://libraryfreedomproject.org/digital-rights-in-libraries/digital-right…>, which will take place at San Francisco's iconic Noisebridge hackerspace, falls directly after the American Library Association's Annual Conference; it's also being held in San Francisco this year. Attorneys from the American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation, who are leading lawsuits challenging the legality of the National Security Agency's mass surveillance programs, will present, along with experts on copyright and the future of digital lending from Creative Commons and the Internet Archive. Technologists from the Freedom of the Press Foundation (where Edward Snowden is a board member) and Mozilla will be onsite providing in-depth technology training at the hackerspace. The event also features librarians from a number of libraries, including the San Francisco and Oakland Public Library systems, as well as Oakland-based Hack the Hood, speaking on the challenges of providing access to technology and training for Bay Area youth. Librarians have long been working on the front lines of information activism and their communities' right to research. Whether by providing access to technology and the Internet, as well as free education, or by standing firm for over a decade as staunch opponents of the USA PATRIOT Act, librarians are at the grassroots of the Internet freedom debate and are uniquely plugged into serving the information needs of local communities, especially those that lack technological or financial resources. The conference is being organized by the Library Freedom Project, a recent grantee from the Knight Foundation that is a partnership among librarians, technologists, attorneys, and advocates to teach librarians about surveillance threats, digital rights, and privacy-protecting technology. The Nation Magazine recently featured <http://www.thenation.com/article/206561/librarians-versus-nsa> the work of the Library Freedom Project as a cover story.
