[consensus] Nominations for Board of Directors

by Yardena Cohen

At tonight's meeting there was consensus that we should move forward with these articles as they are. So for our purposes right now, they are officially ratified: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Articles_of_Incorporation Unfortunately, this entails a Board of Directors. So far no viable legal hacks have appeared to work around this. So the next detail we need to tackle is exactly WHO will be on this Board. We decided that the most legitimate way to do this is to let the mailing list nominate names to a list, confirm they are willing, and then consent on the list of names, to address any potential disagreements or conflicts. Please use this thread to nominate yourselves or others to be on our Board of Directors. Remember, this position requires your name on official government paperwork, will come with legal liability, and will be constructed with as little actual power as possible. Hopefully this will be settled by next week's meeting (Oct 30), at which point we can actually drive to Sacramento and file!

Anyone interested in having a table for November ONL?

by Oakland Nights Live

Sudo-ers- The next Oakland Nights...Live! that we are hosting, on November 9th, is going to have a different format and we were wondering if anyone from Sudo Room would like to be involved. It is our 2nd birthday and we're going to have a series of installations / tables / interesting places around the room for people to visit and interact with rather than a proper show. Would anyone be interested in doing a fun, interactive activity? Either presenting something that you are working on or something else, either like 3D-printing, or making ice-cream, or bio-hacking, or wiki-ing, or any projects? I can give you more info to anyone who is interested. Thanks! -- Jeremy Michael Dalmas Host Oakland Nights...Live!

I'd like to share with you the idea of my next art project that i'll like activate .

by Sergio Racanati

*Dear All, companions and friends * I am Sergio , an Italian activist - artist , now in California for an artist residency program ( a program of artistic research ) . I'd like to share with you the idea of my next art project that i'll like activate . All my artistic research is aimed at highlighting the social, political and econoniche . The way I work is a participatory approach , I'm interested in the creative process to include community , political activists, groups ' marginal , local populations. My porssimo project is aimed at realizing a video store on the city of Detroit , a city that for several deceni has been the symbol of capitalism, Fordism and unbridled industrialization . I'd like to extend the project through this email list . For the realization of the archive, which will then be placed online will be well accepted video in any format, any length , any size, any quality and resolution of images and audio, video, amateur and professional . Below I attach the statement of my artistic research , the link where you can find some of my work and do not hesitate to contact me for any information. My email is: utopiaracanati(a)gmail.com I apologize for my English , but I trust in the understanding of the content, and you will be very happy to realize this project with all of you . *STATEMENT :* The focus of my work relies on my interest in the social history of man in relation to the urban political and architectural environments of human life. My work probes into those side-elements forgotten by history while focusing on the relationship between urban landscape and man’s societal development, between history of architecture and man’s political behaviours. I explore the consequences of the polarization of human existence between forms of conformism and integration, between differentiation and resistance. I also make remarks on the relationship between individual and collective memory in contingent history. My work, which is intimate, albeit not a diary, escapes every narrative purpose to prioritize an analytical perspective meant to build a repository of cultural memory to be drawn upon in terms references and examples to be used in a critical thinking and re-interpretation of present times.

flexible circuit board material works in wax-deposition printers!

by Jake

http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Flexible-Printed-Circuits/ Get some thin sheets of polyimide which have copper on one or both sides. Polyimide is a yellow polymer with a high melting temperature and is sometimes called Kapton. A common type of copper-coated polyimide is DuPont "Pyralux" material. Pyralux sheets come in many different varieties of polyimide thickness, copper thickness and adhesive thickness (the "adhesive" is between the copper and polyimide holding everything together.) Copper thickness is given in oz per square foot, while adhesive and Kapton thickness is given in mil (1 mil =0.001 inch). Pyralux LF7062 (pictured) has 1/2 oz Cu, 1/2 mil adhesive and 1 mil Kapton. This works OK but is a bit thin and crinkly for the printer to handle. LF9120 has 1 oz Cu, 1 mil adhesive and 2 mil Kapton - seems to work best in the printer LF9210 has 2 oz Cu, 1 mil adhesive and 1 mil Kapton - stiffer, but works OK Other options are double sided copper ( a sandwich of Cu/Kapton/Cu held together with adhesive) and a roughened surface, denoted by R at the end of the part number. The roughened sheets and double sided sheet work OK. However, Pyralux with 2 oz or thicker copper can be difficult to feed to the printer, especially if there is copper on both sides. See if you can get a free sample from DuPont. Occasionally, Pyralux sheets turn up on eBay. Cut the Pyralux sheets to 8.5x11 or 8.5x14 inches with scissors or a knife. Avoid smudging the copper with fingerprints or oil, which can block the etch solution later. To protect the printer, try to keep the edges relatively flat and free of burrs. For direct printing on the copper film, locate a solid-ink printer. These are commonly confused with laser printers, but instead print melted wax. Unlike most inkjets, the wax makes a good protective layer for copper etching, and unlike laser printers, solid ink printers don't rely on locally charging the paper surface, which could be troublesome when the paper is replaced by a copper sheet. Some models are Tektronix Phaser 840, 850, 860, and Xerox Phaser 8200, 8400, 8500, 8560, and 8860. You might find one in an office. Most Phaser models are regular laser printers, so check under the hood for the solid ink blocks (pictured) if you're not sure. If you don't have access to a solid ink printer, the "toner transfer" iron on method, using a laser-printed design, could replace this step.

Fwd: Saturday October 26th Event - Large Space Closed.....

by mattsenate＠gmail.com

// Matt ----- Forwarded message ----- From: "Laurie Cooperman Rosen" <Lscoop(a)comcast.net> To: "'Laurie Cooperman Rosen'" <Lscoop(a)comcast.net> Subject: Saturday October 26th Event - Large Space Closed..... Date: Fri, Oct 25, 2013 08:15 Hi All-This is a reminder to let you know that the large common space in 2141 has been rented out for a private event this Saturday evening, October 26th. Please try to minimize trips in/out of your office if you are located within the space, and please do not enter the common space unless you are heading directly to a room there or for handicapped elevator use. Sudo room, if you could open the door into the rear elevator and have folks use elevators to come up instead of walking through the big space, that would be great.Thanks so much for your consideration!Laurie & George
