Re: [sudo-discuss] Articles of Incorporation

Eddan, did you read Marc's link? http://lists.sudoroom.org/pipermail/sudo-discuss/2013-October/003910.html I sent that email 12 days ago! Frankly, I'm tired of waiting on incorporation any more. I am thankful to Marc for helping us move forward. I respect the desire to find more radical horizontal legal hacks but the truth is, even being a regular corp would not make us any worse-off than we are NOW, where we have a DBA, bank account, lease and trifling assets in the legal names of a handful of people with no accountability other than the goodness of their hearts. IMO, we'd actually be closer to horizontal than now, as bizarre as that sounds. We'd also be generally more likely to exist at all, given that incorporation is the bottleneck for a wide variety of solutions to problems that damage our community with every week of not being solved. Which brings me to my other point: no amount of legalese in the world will make up for souring human relationships. With respect to the horror stories of orgs being slyly pwnd by white-collar embezzlement because of loopholes in their bylaws, it is vastly more likely that sudoroom would get pwnd by more informal, intangible problems like our board having poor skills at empathy, communication and listening. I am not indulging any fantasies about us turning Founding Father and overcoming our differences via parliamentary intrigue. If we can't work together on a simple document over several weeks, then this is pointless.

Have a heart! - free pig hearts looking for adventurous carnivore

by Patrik D'haeseleer

I'm about to order some pig hearts for a science experiment form C&M Meats in Berkeley, but they won't deal with an order of less than five. So - anyone want a free pig heart? About the same size and shape as a human heart. Halloween is coming up. So is end of BBQ season - hint, hint... Also perfect for dissection classes! These hearts are food grade, but will be much more intact than what you might find at the butcher (what's called a "bio-heart" in the trade: arteries still attached, no slit through the chambers to let the blood drain, etc.) Come on, have a heart!

Re: [sudo-discuss] Film Hacking : Hack A Film in a Day - OCT 20 Sunday at SudoRoom 9AM-4PM

by Liberty Madison

Hi Jenny! And others The calendar was cunsulted and Crypto is scheduled for Sunday at 2-5p correct? On any given day there are simultaneous events/meetups held at Sudo/common room on multiple days at multiple times Every Day. Ie Thursday nights with CCL , Oakland Wiki, Java Script, Phython as one example. Which to me is the makings of a excellent hackerspace! Executing Crypto does not exclude other events/ meetups /people from gathering/assembley/ visiting / touring/ hacking at Sudo/ Public School or the common space. It of course would prevent a similar large scale event from executing at the same time. Hack a Film in a Day was booked on that day (sunday oct 20)because the execution needs do NOT conflict with any standing events. The event, like many meetups held at Sudo,does not monopolize the space in the same way Crypto or a Oakland nights live event does. It requires neither a podium nor folding chairs :) If it were a large scale event or interfered with Crypto I would have certainly reached out to you personally or simply selected another date. The event begins at 9am at Sudo and remains on location for about 2-3 hours. If you have never attended a film hacking event or are unsure of what to expect please feel free to reach out off line. I understand your concern and need to ensure your event is ran successfully. I love Crypto! The last one was excellent! Both events will be a hit! I will certainly promote your event to anyone who attends Hack a Film in Day on Sunday ! Come for the digital and stay to encrypt it! Collaboration is key! Please feel free to reach out off list if you have specific questions or concerns or if you are curious of the format! I would love to have you attend!

Hacker from Togo Makes $100 3D Printer From E-Waste

by Eddan Katz

This is super cool. And a great example of why I think we should become more aware of developing country innovation because their constraints are more likely to embed sustainability design values. ---- West African Inventor Makes a $100 3D Printer From E-Waste http://inhabitat.com/west-african-inventor-makes-a-100-3d-printer-from-e-wa… by Timon Singh, 10/12/13 Kodjo Afate Gnikou, a resourceful inventor from Togo in West Africa, has made a $100 3D printer which he constructed from parts he scrounged from broken scanners, computers, printers and other e-waste. The fully functional DIY printer cost a fraction of those currently on the market, and saves environmentally damaging waste from reaching landfill sites. Discarded electronic equipment is one of the world’s fastest-growing sources of waste, as consumers frequently replace “old” models that become more obsolete each year. However instead of letting e-waste sit them on the scrap pile or head to the landfill, Kodjo Afate Gnikou decided to utilize spare parts in order to create a cheap, DIY 3D printer. Gnikou is part of WoeLab, a hackerspace in the city of Lomé, and has big plans for his recycling project. According to his crowd funding page, he is working with FacLab-France in the WAFATE to Mars project, which aims to make machines from recycled e-waste to prepare for missions on Mars. Systems like the 3D printer could become a crucial part of missions on the Red Planet should they ever go ahead. Gnikou’s 3D printer was mostly made from materials he obtained from a junk yard in Lomé, though he did have to buy a few parts. The entire system cost about $100 which is a bargain considering current models on the market can cost thousands of dollars. According to his fundraising page, Gnikou aims that with his project, he will “put technology into needy hands and give Africa the opportunity to not only be a spectator but to play the first role in a more virtuous industrial revolution.” To support Gnikou’s project, click here. sent from eddan.com
