The Plenum is a regular meeting of all people involved with the space to talk about things, and decide stuff.

Topics for the next Plenum

What are you currently working on?

Tell everyone about your current projects.

Thank you

Let's say thank you to those who did some awesome stuff for the space since the last plenum

  • Cecile for the awesome flyers, again! So great.
  • Matthias for taking care of a gigantic pile of trash
  • Everyone who helped with Make Munich, as part of the booth, the bar, volunteering and organizing the whole thing
  • Jan for a generous donation to the space

Stuff from the past

What was discussed at the last Plenum? What's the current status on those things? 20170504 Plenum

Anything you don't feel comfortable with in the space? What would you like to change or to be changed?

Is there anything that's bothering you?


Update on Laser status

Hopefully by the time of the Plenum, the laser will be fully operational again. This was not the case previously, and even though it was communicated in Flowdock, some people did not adhere to it. This is sad, but also means we have to communicate such statuses of equipment much more clear.

The laser filter is finished, costs are made transparent on the laser air filter wiki page. We are however missing a piece of MDF that was supposed to be used as a door for the fan cabinet. Does anyone know where that might be? --Tiefpunkt (talk) 13:28, 17 May 2017 (CEST)

Textiles!

Lots of members want to do more with textiles! We want to establish a fixed day for textile workshops / meetup. If enough people are interested, we should buy some equipment, and maybe we find some old sewing machines in our cellars. Interested people: Cecile, Raquel, ThomasE, Nico, Peter, and even some external people (Anna Blumenkranz) -- Tarwin (talk) 13:22, 8 May 2017‎ (CEST)

Waste Separation

We should take care about our environment and do a better waste separation. It is also in our own interest as the situation with the waste is still not 100% clear at the Kreativquartier and we have to avoid the waste hills. We can only bring it to the Werkstoffhof if we have a clear separation of wood, paper / cardboard boxes, glass, plastic, electric waste. We should build a trash with different bins. Proposal: Build something out of wood where we can put in the large, blue plastic bags. --Siedi (talk) 16:02, 9 May 2017 (CEST)

News from the hackathon team

The Hackathon Team was successful again. 3rd Place @7hack means we got five VR Goggles and 250€ in Amazon Cards for the space. Also we finally got the 1000€ from a previous hackathon. We want to find ideas how to spend the money. -- Jan

Hackathon Team Hardware Tower

IMHO the treatment of the hackathon teams hardware is not okay. I want to talk about that -- Jan

2 wheeled things at the space

As of writing, there are 3 bikes (with or without motor) in the space. Some have been here longer than others, but in general it's not quite sure what's the plan with them --Tiefpunkt (talk) 20:24, 15 May 2017 (CEST)

Storage at the storage space

Our member shelves are full, but we need to make space for more members. Also people have requested space for larger things. How do we deal with all of that? --Tiefpunkt (talk) 20:24, 15 May 2017 (CEST)

Some ideas:

  • We build a storage solution where people can rent bigger storage units
    • What do we build?
      • Available sizes?
      • Similar to Werkbox3 Boxes?
    • How much "rent" would storage space cost?
    • Where do we put it?
  • We get the member shelves back to full height.
  • We start slowly replacing the IKEA boxes with Euroboxes 40cm x 30cm x 22cm -> Same volume but not as tall, means we can fit more into the shelves.
  • We go from 3 boxes per person to 2 boxes per person in the shelves -> still more than before the move
  • Standardized boxes, IKEA or Eurobox, everything else gets kicked out of the shelves. Transition period of 1 or 2 months?
  • For the textile stuff (see above), we get some shelving that can be shut to save it from the dust in the rest of the space
  • Projects can ask the Plenum for free storage space, for a limited amount of time

HEi Birthday Party

The Haus der Eigenarbeit (short HEi) is celebrating their 30th birthday this year. To celebrate, they are doing a "Do it together" festival on Orleansplatz on July 8th. They asked us to be a part of that. How's going to lead the effort? --Tiefpunkt (talk) 19:03, 16 May 2017 (CEST)
