ive picked up alex chen's habit of walking into a room and fukcing taking photos of all the bookshelves
| and then perusing them irl
| and in general not regarding taking photos as something special that you do to remember the moment but as an extension of my memory
i grew up in a culture of analog film and limited digital memory. where you counted out your photos and photographs were in the class of documenting things that
| made you feel a lot of emotions
| had technical details
| were #aesthetic
| were proof that things happened
but this sort of cultural additude towards photos doesnt make sense anymore! now i take photos to have a store of memory that i can search through later if i want.
I got to hang out with one of Emily’s weird friends. He is super into cryptography and the politics of privacy and stuff. He’s lowkey paranoid. He’s got on his Noisebridge shirt, which is a hackerspace that is super cool, and he’s also got this elf jacket situation. Emily saw Chelsea Manning speak at Noisebridge recently, but the space might lose their lease soon -- it’s in the Mission, so, you know how that goes... :/
Noisebridge Gaming Archivists Live Arcade Cabinet (NGALAC)
We’re building a Live-Streaming Retro Gaming Arcade Cabinet for Noisebridge and Maker Faire 2018. If you would like to know more about it, we’ve started a wiki page for the project at: https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/NGALAC
If you’d like to help, we’re meeting every Friday at 20:00 until Maker Faire to coordinate our work that we do each week.
2018-03-02 updates:
--We're still looking for a 23"-25" CRT with a curved screen. Once we get one, we'll need help modding it to accept RGB input, similar to this: http://scarthunter.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/RGBmodification.html
--We have many of the things we need to begin setting up the Gaming and Streaming systems. People will be in the space working on these on Tuesday Night 2018-03-06, we'll review their progress at the Friday coordination meeting.
--We need to fabricate a means mounting the ports of retro controller to USB converters on to mountable faceplates that can be installed above the controller board below the CRT.
--We'll start building a wood mock up of the cabinet during the weekend of March 10 to 11 to use for cabinet design development; to workout the final cabinet design. This will be cheap plywood, 2x4s, and screws, but it should be fun.
--If you are familiar with Twitch streams, you may have seen some of those nice intros, outros, and animations that streamers use on their channels. We're looking for help making some of this for the Noisebridge Twitch channel.
If you can help with any of these tasks, or have questions or advice, please email the discussion list: [email protected]

I dropped by the Noisebridge makerspace and took part in their learn to solder Mondays. I made a Brain machine kit. I wasn’t really sure what it did but now I love it. It works by synchronizing your brain waves to a set pattern that takes you into a meditative state. It’s great if you have insomnia!
