Hello volunteers: The time till SCALE (March 6-9th 2025) is quickly approaching and I'd like to get everyone organized. If for any reason you can not make SCALE this year please let me know now. 1st I'd love to first get together anyone interested in introducing speakers. I wan to have a special meeting (via Meet) to get everyone acquainted with the easy process and decide on rooms to cover with the room leads.

Looking for Volunteers to Help with a Creative Project!
by SCALE Volunteer Mailing List 10 Feb '25

10 Feb '25

Hey everyone, We're trying something a little different this year and could use some extra hands! We're looking for help brainstorming and creating small decorative displays to liven up the venue. Since our focus has historically been digital art, we could really use some support from those who enjoy working with traditional, hands-on mediums. If you have crafting experience—especially anything related to stage/scene dressing, prop making, or just general DIY creativity—we’d love to hear from you! Specifically, we’re looking to build some large prop blocks/bricks to complement this year's "Building Together" theme. If you've seen the artwork, you'll recognize the familiar block style. The idea is to create a few different displays featuring large blocks in front of a graphic of Troy building with blocks, placed in high-traffic areas to add depth and make the space feel less bare. How You Can Help: 1. Material Suggestions – We want to make these as easy, inexpensive, and decent-looking as possible. The current idea is: Cardboard (box structure) Wide cardboard tubes or other inexpensive cylinders (for the "pegs") Wrapping paper (solid colors) Glue/tape as needed If you have better material suggestions, let us know! 2. Hands-On Help – If you’re willing to help build these on-site, that would be amazing! We’re thinking a total of about a dozen blocks, so not a huge lift, but enough to make an impact. If this works well, we’d love to expand the idea in future years with more planning and creativity. Of course, one challenge is that these won’t be super durable and may get moved or mistreated, so if anyone has thoughts on minimizing that risk, we're all ears! Let me know if you're interested, have feedback, or can lend a hand. Any help—big or small—is appreciated! Thanks! If interested email josh(a)socallinuxexpo.org or me at philb(a)socallinuxexpo.org with questions
