Hi! I am juul, also known as is marc juul.

Email: juul@sudomesh.org

Juul is currently based in Oakland, California.

Here's my github account. I use Gittip. You can use it to send me recurring micro-tips and keep me working on awesome things:

^Hmm this applet is broken. Need to fix.

high priority projects

• People's Open Network / sudo mesh, a wifi mesh network in the east bay.
• Vegan cheese using cheese protein produced by genetically modified yeast.
• freestore.cc: The Online Free Store. Software similar to GNU MediaGoblin, but written in node.js, using leveldb, focused on decentralized deployment and aiming to become a viable alternative to e.g. the iTunes store, netflix, etc. using only freely licensed content.
• Mycelia: A cross-hackerspace project, skill and tool sharing system. An easily hackable social network focused on projects and collaboration.

Some code here which is a partial node.js port of Labitrack 2.0, but currently re-writing again based on leveldb and streams.

• DisasterRadio - A low-bandwidth disaster-recovery mesh based on software defined radios.
• Co-organizing sudo room, a hackerspace in Oakland, CA.

medium priority projects

• Open microbiology hardware, software and wetware tools for citizen scientists.

Currently building PCR machine prototypes. More info coming at sudo science.

Some in-progress code for TeaCR prototype and drylab tools

• Marine biology / scuba hacking: I'm learning marine biology, mostly through self-study. I'm trying to use my existing skills (microbiology, IT) to gain a foothold in the field. Let me know if you want to co-learn/teach or colloborate!
• Hackpacks: Ultra-cheap backpacks with a basic hacking tool set aimed at 14 to 22 year old hackers.

To be combined with workshops teaching the use of the tools.

• Experimenting with KORUZA for free-space optical links.

Applied for and received $1000 from the pollination project.

• Semi-automated documentation and collaboration infrastructure systems for hackerspaces.
  • Hackerspace tools, projects and skill tracking software.
  • Auto-documentation station - A two-click video documentation station.
  • sudocade portal - A FOSS arcade game and hackerspace to hackerspace video portal.
• Cryptographically enforced straw polls (jerkey's idea).
• Co-organizing Counter Culture Labs. A hackerspace for citizen scientists.

lower priority projects

• Crowd-sourced app/guide to ethical/environmental/health properties of mass-produced goods.
• fauxturkeybrew a ~$200 all-grain outdoor 25 liter beer brewing setup that minimizes workload.
• real vegan cheese a project to express casein in a micro-organism (e.g. yeast) and create real cheese with no animal source.
• Kombucha brewing, bread baking

temporarily shelved projects

• Universal Primer: Easy-setup open source live event/lecture coverage (some code here).

Hopefully I will finish building this some day, or someone else will build it.

• Educational music-making software using frequency analysis of humming/singing/whistling.

hobbies

• Cooking
• Clay sculpting
• Music

I've been putting together a nearly silent music studio with all-electric instruments so we can jam at 4 am and not wake up the housemates.
