The Dissident Salon is a weekly poetry and performance series created as an extension of the DISSIDENT Club’s mission to provide a home for dissenting voices, hosted by Alissa Leeds. Rooted in the tradition of the literary salon, it treats writing and performance as public acts that question power and challenge the systems that shape our lives. Each week features a curated performer, followed by open mic sessions open to all. Work may be presented in English, French, or other languages. Multilingual expression is central to the space and reflects the realities of exile, displacement, and exchange that define the DISSIDENT Club. The Salon is an ongoing forum for people who speak publicly and think critically through art. It exists to build community and support sustained creative work within the broader ecosystem of the DISSIDENT Club. **When:** Every Tuesday, starting January 6th, 2026 **Sign-ups:** 8:00 PM **Sets:** Three 45-minute sessions at 9:00 PM, 10:00 PM, and 11:00 PM **Where:** The DISSIDENT Club, 58 rue Richer, 75009 Bring work that confronts.

Bonjour à tous, ces cours sont actuellement en pause en attenant la réouverture non-conditionnée des lieux de culture et des lieux recevant du public. Hello, these classes are on hold until access to public places and theatres is once again unconditionally open to all.

Chér.e.s Group Elements, (Oui, *comme dans un groupe mathématique* 🧮🙂) Retrouvons-nous pour assister à cette conférence assez fascinante (et informative !) sur **« SMILE : Révéler l'invisible - explorer la magnétosphère terrestre en rayons X »** par Dimitra Koutroumpa (LATMOS-OVSQ) 🌌 🌌 🔄 ***Cet événement remplace une session précédemment annoncée pour le 7 intitulée "Sonder la nature de l'énergie noire avec le projet DESI", qui a été reporté au 5 mai (les inscriptions ouvrent le 8 avril)*** **Voici la description :** 🌞 La météorologie de l'espace étudie l'environnement spatial terrestre, notamment les interactions entre le Soleil et notre planète. Au cour de ce système, la magnétosphère - un bouclier magnétique naturel - nous protège des particules chargées émises par le Soleil - le vent solaire - généralement maintenues à distance par une frontière appelée magnétopause. 🛰️ Cependant, sous certaines conditions, les champs magnétiques du Soleil et de la Terre peuvent s'interconnecter, créant des brèches dans la magnétopause. Ces ouvertures permettent alors aux particules solaires énergétiques de pénétrer dans notre environnement spatial. L'intensité et la fréquence de ces phénomènes de reconnexion magnétique varient en fonction de l'activité solaire. Pendant les pics d'activité, les éruptions solaires et les éjections de masse coronale (CME) peuvent provoquer des perturbations majeures, comme des orages géomagnétiques, des aurores polaires, mais aussi des dysfonctionnements de satellites, des coupures radio, voire des pannes électriques. 🔭 Pour mieux comprendre et anticiper ces phénomènes, la mission SMILE (Solar Wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer), prévue pour un lancement en avril 2026, utilisera une technologie innovante d'imagerie en rayons X. Son objectif : observer globalement la magnétosphère et son évolution face aux variations du vent solaire, afin d'améliorer notre compréhension de la météo de l'espace et de ses impacts sur notre quotidien. 📝 **Voici le lien d'inscription et plus :** https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/ https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/form_reservation_conference.php https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/resumes2026.html ▶️ et la seance **sera en direct** et replay sur son son chaine YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/@InstitutdAstrophysiquedeParis **Même si le site indique que c’est complet, vous pouvez souvent encore trouver une place en arrivant un peu en avance.** 🍀 La conférence est prévue pour commencer à 19h30. 📍 **Accés :** https://www.iap.fr/accueil/acces/acces-fr.html 🍺 Ça dure normalement 60 - 90 mins. Ensuite, pour ceux qui souhaitent prolonger la soirée, on pourrait prendre un verre ou / et aller dans ce resto fast food assez bon près d'Alésia : Brasao Alesia- Restaurant poulet braisé Paris 14ème au 47 Av. du Général Leclerc, 75014 Paris https://maps.app.goo.gl/5QrggZkJYsdaTLUk6 À très bientot ! 🌌 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% **Dear Group Elements,** (Yes — *like elements of a mathematical group* 🧮🙂) Let's attend this fascinating (and informative!) talk on **“SMILE: Revealing the Invisible — Exploring Earth's Magnetosphere in X-rays”** by Dimitra Koutroumpa (LATMOS-OVSQ) 🌌🌌 🔄 ***This event replaces a previously announced session scheduled for the 7th April, titled ‘Exploring the nature of dark energy with the DESI project’, which has been postponed to 5 May (registration opens on 8 April)*** **Description:** 🌞 Space weather studies Earth's space environment, particularly the interactions between the Sun and our planet. At the heart of this system, the magnetosphere — a natural magnetic shield — protects us from charged particles emitted by the Sun (the solar wind), which are generally kept at bay by a boundary called the magnetopause. 🛰️ However, under certain conditions, the Sun's and Earth's magnetic fields can interconnect, creating gaps in the magnetopause. These openings allow energetic solar particles to penetrate our space environment. The intensity and frequency of these magnetic reconnection events vary with solar activity. During activity peaks, solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) can trigger major disruptions such as geomagnetic storms, polar auroras, but also satellite malfunctions, radio blackouts, and even power outages. 🔭 To better understand and anticipate these phenomena, the SMILE mission (Solar Wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer), planned for launch in April 2026, will use innovative X-ray imaging technology. Its goal: to globally observe the magnetosphere and its evolution in response to solar wind variations, in order to improve our understanding of space weather and its impacts on daily life. 📝 **Here’s the registration link** (please do it promptly) and more! https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/ https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/form_reservation_conference.php https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/resumes2026.html **Even if the registration appears full when you follow the link, it’s usually still possible to get seats if you arrive early** 🍀 The talk is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. ▶️ And the session will also be available **live and replay** on IAP's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@InstitutdAstrophysiquedeParis 📍 **Acces**: https://www.iap.fr/accueil/acces/acces-fr.html 🍺It usually lasts 60–90 minutes. Afterwards for those who'd like to continue the evening, we could grab a drink and/or go to this pretty good fast-food restaurant near Alésia: Brasao Alésia – Grilled Chicken Restaurant, Paris 14th, 47 Avenue du Général Leclerc, 75014 Paris https://maps.app.goo.gl/5QrggZkJYsdaTLUk6 See you very soon! 🌌

Dear members, I hope that you will join us in closing the year with two comedies very much in keeping with the sonnets’ renunciation of ideal love! Indeed, idealized love and the practicalities of romance are heavily contrasted in Shakespeare’s *The Merry Wives of Windsor* (April) and The Two Gentlemen of Verona (May). In very different ways, both **plays challenge romantic posturing and expose the distance between lofty declarations of love and the actual conduct of men.** In *The Merry Wives of Windsor*, Shakespeare forces romance into the comedic rooms of everyday life, where the intelligence, wit, and the common sense of **women cut through male fantasy and self-importance**. Maryama Antoine **About the Play:** *The Merry Wives of Windsor* or **Sir John Falstaff and the Merry Wives of Windsor i**s a comedy by William Shakespeare first published in 1602, though believed to have been written in or before 1597. The Windsor of the play's title is a reference to the town of Windsor, also the **location of Windsor Castle in Berkshire,** England. Though nominally set in the reign of Henry IV or early in the reign of Henry V, the play makes no pretence to exist outside contemporary Elizabethan-era English middle-class life. It features the character Sir John Falstaff, the fat knight who had previously been featured in Henry IV, Part 1 and Part 2. It has been **adapted for the opera at least ten times.** The play is one of Shakespeare's lesser-regarded works among literary critics. **Tradition has it that *The Merry Wives of Windsor* was written at the request of Queen Elizabeth I, who watching Henry IV, Part 1, is said to have asked Shakespeare to write a play depicting Falstaff in love.** **The Plot:** Falstaff arrives in Windsor very short of money. He decides that, to obtain financial advantage, he will court two wealthy married women, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page. Falstaff decides to send the women identical love letters and asks his servants – Pistol and Nym – to deliver them to the wives. When they refuse, Falstaff sacks them, and, in revenge, the men tell the husbands Ford and Page of Falstaff's intentions. Page is not concerned, but the jealous Ford persuades the Host of the Garter Inn to introduce him to Falstaff as a 'Master Brook' so that he can find out Falstaff's plans. Meanwhile, three different men are trying to win the hand of Page's daughter, Anne Page. Mistress Page would like her daughter to marry Doctor Caius, a French physician, whereas the girl's father would like her to marry Master Slender. Anne herself is in love with Master Fenton, but Page had previously rejected Fenton as a suitor due to his having squandered his considerable fortune on high-class living. Hugh Evans, a Welsh parson, tries to enlist the help of Mistress Quickly (servant to Doctor Caius) in wooing Anne for Slender, but the doctor discovers this and challenges Evans to a duel. The Host of the Garter Inn prevents this duel by telling each man a different meeting place, causing much amusement for himself, Justice Shallow, Page and others. Evans and Caius decide to work together to be revenged on the Host... **Sources:** Some elements of *The Merry Wives of Windsor* may have been **adapted from Il Pecorone, a collection of stories by Ser Giovanni Fiorentino**; one of these stories was included in **William Painter's** **The Palace of Pleasure.**

The Aeneid is a Latin epic poem that tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who fled the fall of Troy and travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans. Written by the Roman poet Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, the Aeneid comprises 9,896 lines in dactylic hexameter. The first six of its twelve books tell the story of Aeneas' wanderings from Troy to Italy, and the latter six tell of the Trojans' ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed. The hero Aeneas was already known to Graeco-Roman legend and myth, having been a character in the Iliad. Virgil took the disconnected tales of Aeneas' wanderings, his vague association with the foundation of Rome, and his description as a personage of no fixed characteristics other than a scrupulous pietas, and fashioned the Aeneid into a compelling founding myth or national epic that tied Rome to the legends of Troy, explained the Punic Wars, glorified traditional Roman virtues, and legitimized the Julio-Claudian dynasty as descendants of the founders, heroes, and gods of Rome and Troy. The Aeneid is widely regarded as Virgil's masterpiece and one of the greatest works of Latin literature

Cabaret poétique et fantaisiste. Jazz verbal. P.T.T : Poète Tout Terrain. Du sketch de situation jusqu'au poème, calembour en action, en passant par la chansonnette a capella. Au partage ! Nous chanterons ensemble au final, dans la grande pagaille du monde... **L'Impartial :** L’auteur, David Rougerie, a conquis un auditoire de plus en plus fidèle. Cabaret poétique, spectacle parlé et chanté, sucré-salé, doux-amer, fait d’humour et de fantaisie, prétexte à nous questionner sur l’injustice, la différence, à nous inviter à réagir, mais aussi à nous parler d’amour, de littérature, d’art et d’espoir. **Une Grenouille à Paris, quotidien culturel :** « David Rougerie tresse les mots magiques à la vitesse d'un coureur de formule 1 spécialisé dans le tissage : une perle de mélancolie par-ci, deux pompons de drôlerie par-là, quelques paillettes de jazz, et vous voilà avec autour du cou un collier-spectacle des plus précieux. TRES RECOMMANDÉ !! » Horaire : 18h30 après l'atelier philo sur Nietzsche Tarif : libre (suggestion : 10€) Lieu : Espace Le Moulin

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
