Anytime my involvement at a hackerspace stops involving hacking, I need to stop, reconsider why I'm there, and the motivations of everyone involved.

I've noticed a lot of interest by education folks in hackerspaces.  It's overall a great thing.
Some constructive suggestions:
* Enable hackers to help you find creative solutions to your education or social work organization. They will come up with a lot of great ideas!
* Although SudoRoom is conensus driven, most hackers and creative people aren't thrilled at the idea of meetings and bureaucracy. There is a small group of people who are really into meetings who like hacking politics - they are awesome! But most people do not enjoy being blocked from doing basic stuff, they tend to like iterating here. A little sensitivity would help out a whole lot, as education and non profit industries tend to favor talking a lot at meetings, lots of conensus on basic tasks, and blocking experimentation and innovation.
* Women at hackerspaces aren't necessarily thrilled about being pigeonholed into traditional female roles in teaching kids, education, non profits, or social work. Be sensitive to this. Many people have had to overcome prejudice, social and cultural considerations to become more technical and learn how to code or get into engineering. Help push women into areas outside of kid's education, it will make the world a better place! conversely, there are many great men at hackerspaces who are eager to work with kids and don't usually have the opportunity because they were told they were "too technical"

People like to talk a lot and get excited..

Lately as a late bloomer I've been getting into the outdoors through snowboarding, surfing, and bicycling (skateboarding not as much lately). I'm interested in finding ways to bring that world in a unique way, they are cool but they're sort of bro-ified sometimes, maybe we can do new things with these cultures.

Bestest Most Current Things

  • LearningToLearn - How to learn effectively in an increasingly distraction crowded world?
  • ProjectionMapping - thinking of doing light projection all around SudoRoom and combining this with augmented reality. Also adding games to the mix and bringing in more artists and game makers from around the SF Bay Area to sudoroom.
  • Rust Rust learning groups during women and non binary night
  • XR at SudoRoom
  • Shaders Learning shaders at SudoRoom

painting with the SudoRoom Robot arm <3 it's so good to learn from other people!

Philosophy

I go to hackerspaces to make things and hack. If I'm not hacking at a hackrrspace, I must ask myself, Why am I here?

Projects

  • XR various virtual reality, augmented reality projects at sudoroom
  • Print Print projects at sudoroom especially zines

Doge needs more projects!


SudoRoom: A Love Story (Game)
  • SudoRoom: A Love Story a visual novel game about a person that is... you! who comes to SudoRoom and discovers all the neat things you can do. You eventually learn how to save the world too!
  • ArtMakingParty event we put on after the Oakland First Friday
  • Super Focus Club SudoRoom is a hackerspace, a place created for hacking. Lately it's gotten very tough for hackers to actually hack here -- we're getting pulled to do publicity for outside companies, social work, and more instead of actually hacking. Let's get back to the basics.


I didn't study engineering at all. But during the MicroController Hack Night Hol and others helped me to get my basic FSR (force sensitive resistor) working. Every time I pressed the sensor with my fingers, the LED lit up. This can lead to all sorts of interesting projects!
The first time I came to SudoRoom I was warmly welcomed. I build my own Arduino and lit up the LED for the first time! It was a special moment
Sudo Room Characters (that is an ohm, not a lululemon logo. will change it =) )

Interests

I like to build things. I prefer hack nights and doing stuff to tech talks.

Sudo Room

Personal

  • I love living in Oakland.
  • favor collaboration and doocracy. Please work with me on the sudoroom github - http://github.com/sudoroom
  • beginning apprentice snowboarding and skateboarding, journeying by hanging out with various dysfunctional pugs
Sudo Room
Sudo Room again!

Random Stuff

  • One of my friends Joe Reagle Wrote a nice book on collaboration in Wikipedia. He outlines a lot of interesting situations and ways people resolve conflict on Wikipedia. It might be useful to people in an open source hackerspace as well. "http://reagle.org/joseph/2010/gfc/"
  • When I lived in Berlin I would often eat at Volkskuechen, which are these punk rock dinners that cost a $1. The emphasis was on making food, not buying it from a restaurant, or scavenging by dumpster diving. The food was usually better than what you got in restaurants. The focus was on creating cheap, healthy ways to eat food together. There were no book deals or bloggers or "thought leaders" people just did it http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuntenhaus_(Berlin)
  • C-Base in berlin themes itself as a crashed spaceship. Maybe sudo room would be interested in creating some kind of grand narrative. http://www.c-base.org when I think of sudo i think of grumpy unix sysadmins who look like the comic books store guy from the simpsons. maybe it could be like elvis!
