**Explore sounds of belonging, for you and for others in a three-days’ workshop** **When**: 18th, 19th & 20th of May **Time:** 13.30-18.30 **Where:** Sibelius Academy Töölönlahdenkatu 16 C, 2nd floor The workshop "Bajo un mismo sol" is bilateral and happens simultaneously with participants in Medellín. All together we will train careful listening to places, make and share recordings of places we feel belonging to, and create collective sound maps in the mobile app MSWalks on Kansalaistori, in front of Oodi library, and on the square of Medellín Modern Art Museum. On these sound maps that activate when we walk across the squares with our phones' speakers, we will also improvise with small custom-designed solar-powered electroacoustic instruments. Participating does not require any background in music, but an interest in sound, for encountering new people and sharing ideas related to identity and memories. A careful listening attitude is central to the activities, as well as an interest for sharing and conversing within respect of differences. This workshop is related to a research and the registered participants will receive detailed information prior to decide on consenting to participate to the research. The activities will be documented for research purposes and there are various options for being or not included in the documentation. You may participate to the whole workshop or select the times that suit the best to your schedules. **After registering you will anyway be contacted and given more information, but you may as well ask information prior to registration by email at marianne.decoster-taivalkoski@uniarts.fi.** About the facilitator: Marianne Decoster-Taivalkoski (IG: marianne.d_t ) is a media and sound artist with French origins and based in Helsinki since 1993.

In a world that moves fast, this is an invitation to slow down, tune in, and explore the art of being truly present with yourself and others. Through a blend of theater games, body-based practices, and art therapy-inspired exercises, we explore how we communicate in the spaces between words. ### **What to Expect** This workshop is rooted in a non-judgmental, process-oriented approach. We focus on the experience of creating rather than the final product. This workshop is in English, therefore communicating and understanding English is necessary for participation. ### **Activities include** * Gentle Movement: Reconnecting with the body as an instrument of awareness. * Mirroring & Improvisation: Playful exercises to explore relational dynamics and empathy. * Creative Prompts: Using gesture, space, and visual expression to navigate emotions and boundaries. * Shared Reflection: Co-creating a supportive environment where every participant is seen and heard. ### **Location** The location is called **Lapinlahden Lähde** and is situated within the historic Lapinlahti hospital area near Hietaniemi.

During her university years in Turin, she co-founded an artistic laboratory, Flux Lab, that became a living space for experimentation, dialogue, and collective creation. Over seven years, she worked across multiple artistic languages, curating workshops, exhibitions, courses, and public events. Her path led her to a one-year art therapy training grounded in a psychodynamic approach, deepening her interest in creativity as a tool for care, expression, and transformation. Giulia has facilitated creative workshops with adults, adolescents, children, and people with disabilities, shaping spaces where art becomes a shared process rather than a finished product. In 2024, she brought her practice to Helsinki, organising her first creative workshop in collaboration with Mieli Without Borders during Mental Health Art Week.

Can you reshape your reality with just a marker in your hand? Welcome to NeuroTree, an immersive workshop grounded in the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and creative research.

It is a visual metaphor for your life, allowing you to use your past experiences as the "roots" that fuel your future achievements and "branches" of potential. Neurographics is a meditative drawing process that uses specialized lines and shapes to help "rewire" your emotional response to challenges Join us! ### **The Journey** * Identify Your Roots: Transform your previous experiences and lessons into a solid foundation for growth. * Cultivate Your Potential: Use the NeuroTree algorithm to visualise and manifest new goals, habits, and achievements. * Harmonise Your Mind: Learn the "rounding" technique to smooth out internal conflicts and create a sense of psychological flow. * Shape Your Reality: Discover how intentional drawing can shift your perspective and unlock new pathways in your life. ### **Who Is This For?** This workshop is open to everyone. **No art skills or previous drawing experience are required.** If you are looking for a creative, science-backed way to manage overthinking, boost your confidence, or simply explore your potential, you are in the right place.

**🦋 Real Speed Dating Online for Detroit Singles Personality Matched** On the night, you'll sit down for host-managed one-on-one rounds with Detroit singles your age curated by personality quiz, as an experienced host steers the pace. Prior to the event, you submit a short personality questionnaire — the information you provide there to pair you intelligently with Detroit locals, making every round feel more natural from the first minute. After all the rounds, match notifications go to both parties — with no one-sided reach-outs ever happening — and you decide your next step from there. **Your age group is your key — pick it below:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Detroit&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Important:** Your rsvp here is not a registration confirmation, so register through your age group link above and complete the personality quiz — places close once the group is full so sign up early, and only a completed registration locks in your seat. --- **How it works** 1. **Lock in your place** – using the link for your age bracket, then finish the personality questionnaire, since this is how you are officially confirmed. 2. **Hop on** – by clicking the Zoom invite at the event time, laptop phone or tablet — your choice, all work fine, and a host is live and will walk you through everything. 3. **Take part in the rounds** – host-guided one-on-one rounds with compatible Detroit singles in your bracket, as the host handles all transitions so conversations stay natural, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet. 4. **See your results** – after all rounds finish mutual matches are distributed privately, as privacy is guaranteed for all non-mutual selections, and once you have it you decide how and when to connect. **Perfect for:** - Anyone calling Detroit home wanting to escape digital dating that never converts to anything real and want to meet real locals without the faff. - Individuals in Detroit who are tired of app fatigue and empty match queues and want to talk to real people tonight. - Locals living in Detroit getting away from app fatigue and empty match queues and want real chemistry over profile photos. - Daters within Detroit who are tired of matches that ghost after two messages and are ready for something genuine instead. --- ✨ Done with apps — start here — use the link above to register and the host takes it from there this time. Your next chapter might start tonight. 🔥 ✨
