by Max Klein

Do you want to be lavished with stress, anguish and minimal praise for the the thankless task of maintaining the sudo door "sudoor"? Well now is your chance. Imagine a your mirth at suddenly being responsible for a critical but poorly working access mechanism! Why isn't the door electric door opening working reliably? I don't know, but I can tell you how its supposed to work, which parts are the most reliable, and the full history. Then you can fix it. Requirements: None except patience, and I will teach you whatever relevant skills are necessary to make as poorly a working door as already exists. Contact me, notconfusing

any sounds people here make any libraries of sounds to be used for games?

by Romy Ilano

I'm working on a small SudoRoom game. Are there any sound libraries on the server / are there any sounds that anyone at SudoRoom has made that could be used in a small educational game? If it's on the SudoRoom server, can I easily access this from my home while I'm not at the space? [I'm currently disabled and unable to get there physically] ============================= Romy Ilano romy(a)snowyla.com

Fwd: Documentary Filming at Sudo Room

by Jenny Ryan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 TL;DR: The folks making the documentary on the commons have agreed to produce it under a CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license (yay!). They plan to shoot b-roll at the space on Tuesday and Friday, and do filming and interviews on Wednesday and Thursday.

It would be great to e-mail everyone. Feel free to share my e-mail and number (215-971-0837) in the communication so anyone that wants to be interviewed, has ideas, or specifically doesn't want to be filmed can contact me. I'll create an account later today as well. I'm thinking Wednesday and Thursday will be the main days we come by and interview and film with tomorrow and Friday being possible b-roll days (days I just show up with a camera and film some of the behind the scenes activities). The things we want to focus on are: 1) What is the impact of declining freedom of communication? 2) How is Sudo working to improve things? (especially the mesh network) Thanks again, see you tomorrow or Wednesday. - -bunker On Sun, Jan 19, 2014 at 8:18 PM, Jenny Ryan <jenny(a)thepyre.org> wrote: > On Fri 17 Jan 2014 03:47:45 PM PST, Bunker Films wrote: >> OpenPGP: *Parts of the message have NOT been signed or >> encrypted* > >> Hi Jenny, > >> I responded to the wiki you made by saying "CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 > International" >> as the type of creative commons the director is looking at.
