Marc wow - let me create a projects page on the wiki for this or I'll lose
it in the email area.
OK, I have to do other stuff today (work and the light projector project)
but a big advantage that SudoRoom/Omni. has is that while we don't offer
classes, we offer this freeform place for artists to experiment in. People
don't have to apply for grants or have a project plan before they mess
around with the space. How can we emphasize this???
That's where a lot of the cool stuff happens.

OK hear me out -- this idea is super cheesy but
as I become middle aged

what do you guys think of making an experimental interior design/ museum
display section at SudoRoom. It could be someone practicing the craft of
interior design alongside a bookcase with "member recommended" books or a
weird ancient electronics equipment where someone writes a cool history.
surely there are people who do interior design that are creative but
don't want to make stuff that's mass market. Usually the folks who do
something creative have to design stuff for rich people. This is the kind
of stuff cool rich people would order:

surely there must be a way to make fun spaces in a cheap way.
This could even be a space for set designers, the kind of people who work
in theater. Hmm... I mean ok this idea is very labor intensive but maybe I
can try to give a spin at it. It would maybe not even be about interior
design but more about designing museum installation art.
I'm very much in favor of sudo room being improved by people with interior
design skills and we've considered a little "info/welcom table" up front
with an old mac and some other fun hacks. I would like to encourage that
any area modified in this way be modified toward being a usable area for
hanging out, chilling, reading or hacking, rather than being only for
display.
As always I appreciate your energy Romy and I'd be very interested in
working on this with you :) Are you imagining a little section like the
"rooms" in Ikea where most/all walls are missing but with its own
aesthetic, floor, lighting, etc?
Btw, not that we can't do it in sudo room but the basement area accessible
from sudo room downward stairs (with the sewing stuff) is also up for being
re-vamped. It's supposed to be an area for media
(printing/scanning/copying/stapling/laminating + sewing and other media
work) that the Omni collectives co-manage and co-habitate. It is no longer
being run by FYE.
