Announcing the Code of Conduct Committee

 Uncategorized  Comments Off on Announcing the Code of Conduct Committee

NYC Resistor has had a Code of Conduct for several years. Please read it! We believe that having a Code of Conduct helps us establish and nurture a safe, collaborative, and inclusive environment. The Code of Conduct applies to all participants in the NYC Resistor space: both members and visitors, in both the physical space and in digital channels such as our Slack channel or social media accounts. It applies to all NYC Resistor events, including private member meetings, Craft Nights, classes, and parties.

We’ve now established a Code of Conduct Committee. The goal of this committee is to ensure that the CoC is enforced, and provide a point-of-contact for anyone who needs to report a potential CoC issue.

What you can expect from us:

The Code of Conduct Committee can be reached at [email protected]. If you need to report an incident involving a member of the committee, you can alternatively email one of the committee members directly. See http://nycresistor.com/participate for a list of the current committee members. Committee membership, like all Resistor volunteer roles, rotates on a regular basis.

We will respond to any reports within seven days. Reports will be confidential and anonymous. Please note that if you email [email protected], the committee will see your email address; please make a throwaway email account if you feel it is necessary to do so.

If your issue is urgent, please include the word “URGENT” in your subject line. Keep in mind that the committee is staffed by an all-volunteer group. If you are at an ongoing event where an issue has occurred, please also consider reaching out to any NYC Resistor members present at the event. 

For the full text of the Code of Conduct, please refer to https://www.nycresistor.com/participate/ or the signs posted in the space. 

Thank you for helping us to keep Resistor a safe and welcoming space for all.

Sincerely,
The CoCC

We’ll be hosting our second annual Yarn Swap / Destash Party on March 9th.

Whether you’re a new knitter in need of yarn, or a yarn hoarder looking to swap unused skeins, all are welcome. Knitters, crocheters, spinners, dyers, if you do it with yarn we’d love to have you. Bring your stash to trade and share while enjoying good company and tea. We’ll pile all the yarn on the table and then it’s all free to a good home.

We’re really excited about this weekend’s 3d modeling class. Get your tickets now!
Three-dimensional computer models are used for concept design, prototyping on a 3D printer, making furniture on a CNC, creating realistically rendered images, making animations or games, and much more. In this class, you’ll learn how to navigate 3D software and create computer models from scratch using Rhino3D. The software is easy to learn and is a great starting point for working in three-dimensions no matter what you want to create. You’ll learn the fundamentals of working with various viewports, creating and editing basic and advanced geometry, as well as how to tailor your project for laser cutting and 3D printing.

We’re throwing a special NYE Craft Night at NYC Resistor!

A large drunk polar bear with a kabuki face painted on his stomach dances in the foreground while his friends, a llama, a panda, and a woman look on in amazement.

All usual Craft Night shenanigans welcome, whether that’s knitting/soldering/whatever projecting you want. We’ll be starting at 8pm and going til…whenever.

From left to right, a polar bear, a penguin, a panda bear, and a grizzly bear are dancing back and forth, flapping their hands near their face. The polar bear is wearing an apron and blue scarf. The grizzly bear is wearing a leather jacket, cross neckless and goggles

Bring your projects, bring your friends, most importantly – bring yourself.

We’re offering a brand-new intro to programming class on December 10th! Tickets available here.

p5js is an excellent gateway to get up and running with programming fundamentals. In the class we will breifly cover some necessary basics of HTML and Javascript, but will primarily focus on the p5js environment for fun animations and interactivity. By the end of this class you will create your own interactive web page, and will have the tools to continue exploring and learning p5js on your own.

Get your tickets on Eventbrite.
