About Event

The theme of tonight's women & non-binary hack night is female audio Pioneers. People come here to jam, work on hardware or software projects, but this week can focus on analog and digital audio for folks who are interested!

Our inspiration are female audio pioneers such as Suzanne Ciani, who forged her own path to run her own successful electronic music agency at a time when opportunities for women were limited and electronic music was considered strange.

Hack on Analog Audio

We have analog audio superheroes at our event, and you can fiddle with the equipment and learn about sound engineering!

AI open source project

We will focus on multimodal generative artificial intelligence models and create small code samples inspired by female pioneers of electronic and analog music!

Hack on What you Want

​​​Since this is mostly screen-free and face to face, this frees up the meeting for everyone to work on whatever they want and participate at will!

​​​The SudoRoom has hardware of all types: analog audio, soldering tools, a lasercutter, and more! So this isn't just a software workshop.

​​Hardware Hacking

​​​Poke around our wiki to see all the cool toys we have!

​why we do AI

However, we should also be informed as we will see more and more AI in everyday life in the government, non-profits and corporations. By understanding how these tools work we can have better debates and make wiser choices.

​exploring the tools means we won't have to say yes all the time

​​This workshop is an exploratin of what's out there! It does not mean that we think we have to use technology all the time! We are strong believes in appropriate technology, and that not all technology is necessary for all groups at all times, especially collectivist non-profits.

​​​Why is Open-Source AI Good?

​​​Come to our meetup and we'll tell you why! You'll also leave the workshop no matter what level you are with one open-source local generative AI model that you can talk to all you want without worries about privacy.
