Proposition Contribution et Aces MakerSpace
Vanessa (10 min)
En tant que Hackuarium, nous soutenons le Makerspace en tant que lieux et communauté soeur a la notre et precieusse pour la partie prototypage de nos idées. Nous voulons continuer à contribuer pour la faire vivre dans les meilleures conditions pour tous. Cependant, nous comprenons qu'il y a une autre situation sur la table et, afin de trouver un terrain d'entente pour permettre à nos membres d'avoir accès et de contribuer à votre communauté, j'aimerais que vous nous aidons à clarifier ces points:
Status précédent
Tous les membres Hackuarium ont eu un accès complet à l'atelier depuis 2014, puis en 2015 a été limité aux mercredis soir et vendredi toute la journée. Maintenant, la situation n'est pas claire. Nous aimerions revenir au status 2015 (aces libre aux membres, limité si vous le considérez, en jours de utilisation mercredi soir-vendredi journée). Comment Hackuarium peut-il contribuer à ce que cela se produise? Nous sommes actuellement 3-5 personnes à utiliser ponctuellement le Makerspace, et nous considérons que nous avons contribué notablement, en transcendant notre condition d '"utilisateurs" à des agents actifs pour la "création de communauté". Comment cela va-t-il changer avec la situation actuelle? Comment contribuer mieux en tant que Association?
Proposition a discuter avec nos membres et représentantes du Makerspace:
Nous recherchons un accès garanti pour nos membres Hackuarium tout au long de l'année et nous profiterons de l'AG pour donner une proposition pour decider entre tous nos membres qui seront présents à la réunion annuelle.
Option A
Comment pouvons-nous contribuer à Made @ UC ou à l'Association des utilisateurs de Made @ UC? Par exemple: Nous contribuons à Made @ UC 20% (un jour par semaine) et nous avons accordé l'accès à Made@UC. Comment l'articuler, usagers bénévoles, calendrier (a discuter lors de notre assemblé extraordinaire).
Option B
Hackuarium contribue avec 3-5 adhésions au prix d'association (600CHF) et nous avons un accès complet à Made@UC.
Option C
Vos propositions.
Status of les Ateliers de Renens
? invited speaker - Marc (10 min)
Update Association
During 30 min, we will discuss the philosophy, the role and the format of the association and it's activities. The whole community needs to get involved.
Philosophy
In this section we will discuss what is the unique philosophy of Hackuarium.
- What makes our initiatives different from other initiatives in science, education, innovation, entrepreneurship
- Why are we interested in doing the things we do the way we do them?
- Should everyone pledge to support this philosophy first, and then their personal interest?
- Should we support projects that have a commercial goal? in which terms?
- Wiki and documentation, something we should firmly encourage (again)? How?
Role
In this section we will discuss what is the unique value proposition for Hackuarium.
- What role should the association have in this context?
- Who composes the target audience?
- What is the added value for individuals?
- How does Hackuarium get the credit / contrapartie ?
Governance
In this section we will discuss what what is the best way to reach these goals.
- How to have a community-driven association while ensuring that milestones are achieved? The football team vs autonomous approach?
- Should Hackuarium have any form of central control or not?
- Should Hackuarium have a media representative? (Eg. Acknowledge certain members having bigger media presence, how to balance / credit)
Activities
In this section we will discuss what is the concrete actions Hackuarium members should take to fulfil the role of the association and respect its philosophical goals.
- What sort of activities should be organised by Hackuarium?
- What should be the message to the outside world (media, public)?
- Who should be responsible for these activities?
- Tasks: How to communicate them and get the chance members out of the board to take part? (example: Crowdfunding) In which ways is this
Future
all member discussion (15 min)
Update Projects
Any project that wish to present an update should do so at this point. (opportunity for team formation?)
Living Instruments
(Luc, 5 min)
The piece was performed at three locations in 2017.
- 3 April 2017: OTO Project - Instruments exhibition and workshop

We also presented the project to the Octanis association at EPFL on 5 December 2017.
BeerDecoded
(Luc, 5 min)
The project was initiated in 2014 by Gianpaolo Rando as an iteration of the Open Food DNA project.
The scientific results of the project were published in a peer-reviewed journal article in October 2017. This article is entitled "BeerDeCoded: the open beer metagenome project" and is available open access on the F1000 research website.
AGiR! for Genomic integrity
The intern, Anna Dussuet, helped over 8 weeks during last summer, also for the move and the Montreux Clean Beach project, especially trying to get the comet assay to work with 'kitchen ingredients' and without fluorescence. Both efforts are still quite a challenge, but some project was made!
Open sourcing DNA damage detection workshops were held already in Brussels and London, and the donors will get their special edition 17march.
A new workshop is being advertised now. Please spread the word! Tickets are 2for1 to 'do it together'!

Candidates
WHY: I would like to continue helping the association with the organisation of the logistics (as the Secretary and Treasurer) until the end of July 2018. I already announce that I will stay a member but will not take any responsibility anymore from August 1st 2018. I believe it is time for the association to renew its board and find other candidates who can take responsibility for its existence.
