Hello all :)

My name is Troy Massey and I love words; 
more specifically language as a system.

i am trained as an offset printer, did graphic design
in school, learned Information Design for 2 years on a daily
basis, i enjoyed building model rockets and launching them
to take photos of the earth, take apart radios and fix them,
make model cars, but alas :( ...

the only experience i have really ever had with creating a computer
system was math programs with BASIC, command prompting
DOS Shell and using computers like any other person.

I have taken a few Banking classes and dropped the
psuedo (no pun intended) science "Economics" classes
i took in college, to instead investigate the reality for myself
and saw quite a different picture: one of burgeoing oppportunity
to create connections and ties between community members
and build the better world we all have a hand in.

 I also read Every issue of FastCompany and INC. from cover 
to cover (1998-2001).

In my spare time I talk to cute girls(yes over 18 for all U creepy minded folks ;) on the phone, Draw out new inventions that pop into my head, write poetry (im broaching about 1,200 poems, read only Non.Fiction.

i am currently going for a Ph.D. in Communication, 
a Ph.D. in sustainable economics( not offered except as
a managerial degree by some business college in the
midwest, but im looking at Everet's Contextual Economics
program) a masters in English.

All in all life is Quite intetsting i must say
defendingly deliquency happens
when one hides from their truth
or runs away
I like challanges
direct affect is worked at 
conveyed
back to mind advancement via
enaged word enchantment
see yall Wendnesday :)

Live
Love
Learn
Laugh
Let go

I help to organize the make:SF meetup, as well as Workshop Weekend and other geeky things going on in Oakland, like Code for Oakland.  I love pinball and cooking and generally finding out how stuff works.

>> I have never introduced myself on the list either till now, I'm Tracy Jacobs, kinetic sculptor/ geek/dogwalker,  I am working on making a kinetic sculpture kit with an animal theme, that is very accessible to girls.  I have a sculpture mfa specializing in metals and casting, but got interested in electronics and kinetics about six years ago.  I learned all the engineering I know from the Crucible kinetics department and the internet.   I have been a member of Noisebridge previously, and also Ace Monster Toys.

>> I am psyched that you all want to create a hackerspace community in my neighborhood, I live near Lake Merrit/Glenview. I approve 100% of the space that has been rented after seeing it last week, I think the location is phenomenal, the space that can be used is substantial, the rent will be minimal when divided up into 20+ members, and I think if we can have a few events/classes there a lot more people will get interested in participating.  
>> 
>> I like the orientation of the people in your group, and hope that I can be of some contribution.  I can see that you're all really interested in setting a model for a more  sustainable economy and lifestyle, and I think that's great.

>> I am interested in learning more about Cad software, to improve my mechanical abilities at the moment.  Can anyone teach that or is anyone else interested in studying together?

>> Sculpture and basic design principles/processes
>> moldmaking
>> microcontrollers for kinetic  sculpture
>> welding
