We will have our own Altar for the group as a meetup point. AND you will be able to create art and help decorate it. (read below) This is the biggest, baddest Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) festival in Los Angeles, if not all of California. Whatever is written can't compare with a well made vid. **[Click here](https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907)** to watch what it's like [https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907](https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907) Come celebrate the Mexican holiday on which the souls of the departed are said to return and join in celebration with family members. It's a humorous way of dealing with the reality of death, which is after all a part of life. If all that sounds a little grim, I have been to this event in the past and found it to be one of the biggest, liveliest parties I have ever seen! There will be lots of dancing: Aztec dancing, folkloric dancing, and more. Families set up ofrendas (altars) to welcome back the dead; this year there will be over 100 of them and the best decorated win prizes. You can get your face painted (for a fee) like a calaca (skull), or come with your face already painted if you wish. Come in your best Dia de los Muertos costume; the best costume can win $1500! There are art exhibits and photo exhibits and stunning light exhibits. AND There will be five stages featuring primo entertainment until close to midnight. Along with food and beverage vendors and lounges in which to enjoy their wares. The main site is [https://www.ladayofthedead.com](https://www.ladayofthedead.com) Photos from past years [https://www.ladayofthedead.com/gallery/nggallery/gallery](https://www.ladayofthedead.com/gallery/nggallery/gallery) Event details such as specific acts and parking get updated to this posted in the month before. and parking. For the moment you can find 2023's info at [https://www.ladayofthedead.com/event-info/](https://www.ladayofthedead.com/event-info/) COST? For 2023 . . . it was : $35 for Day Of The Dead 9AM to 3PM And $60 for Night of the Dead from 5PM to midnight. Yeah . . . it's not cheap. On the other hand . . . it's really awesome and not like anything you have ever seen. **[Click here](https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907)** to watch what it's like [https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907](https://player.vimeo.com/video/816694907) This is a Meetup? YES . . . . we (the group owners) will get an alter spot. We will decorate it a bit. And we will set it up with chairs and a table with an art activity. Watercolors . . . watercolor paper . . . brushes . . . and you will get to make your own offering for the booth. We will post the location of our altar. This will be our Meetup point. You will get there. And you can head out with whoever is there. OR . .. sit down and start with some art and when other folks get there . .. head out with them. And remember, this takes place in a cemetery and mausoleum. Some of our members have family members buried or interred there, so a certain level of decorum is also appropriate, along with the fun and joy. For instance . . . I personally have relatives located here. Looking forward to seeing you there! RSVP here if you are interested AND if you are interested in being one of the hosts. OR if you are interested in being in charge of the design and creation of the alter and decorations . . . send me a message. Will add you and you can then be part of making this event happen.

5.0

We frame ourselves as **"a support group for the technological singularity"** and we are an eclectic mix of open-minded thinkers, artists, and tinkerers who believe in embracing the emerging technologies and capabilities in the most humanitarian way possible. Our meetings have a super casual and open atmosphere where all are welcome to contribute. Feel free to come late or leave early. So whether you're an AI enthusiast or skeptic, a creative professional already using AI on the daily, or someone just starting their first vibe coding project, this group may be for you! **NOW NEW & IMPROVED** We are doing "Hack-a-salons" after every meeting (starting at 5pm) now that 310 Coffee is staying open later. So please bring your laptops or art projects, or works in progress that you have questions on or want to present to the group. No podiums... only passion projects, good people and great vibes! ☺️ **What to Expect** Interesting conversations, relevant content, and educational resources. We are a diverse community of people who want to help each other and the world around us. We meet in person once a week at **310 Coffee in Culver City from 3-5pm**, we share our work and interesting news in our Whatsapp group, put on remote Learning Labs, go to events together, and encourage our members (who have the availability) to participate in a learning collective where we can volunteer to give each other one-on-one crash courses in various artistic, technical, and entrepreneurial disciplines. Here is a list of what we can teach: [https://strangenew.world/labs/what-we-know](https://strangenew.world/labs/what-we-know) We also encourage each of our members to take on a Passion Project, which could be as simple as getting up and running with a new artistic medium or project, or as complex as laying the groundwork for your dream business or career. We believe there has never been a better time (at least in OUR lifetimes) to set your sights on what your ideal life would be two years from now and then just start moving toward it. And maybe we can help you do that by giving you the hand-holding you need to get over that first hump, which can sometimes be the most difficult part. **How to Give Back** If you are a member looking to give back, or if you like what our organization is doing, then please follow, subscribe, rate us, and smash that like! 🤣 I know it seems silly to many of you, but in the attention economy, just the act of following us, liking our posts, and reviewing our events can make a huge difference in how the algorithm shines upon us. Also, if you would like to support us in a more direct way, please consider giving us a one-time donation, subscribing to one of our tiers, or sponsoring us. We pay for a lot of stuff out of pocket, so please consider becoming a patron to support the overall longevity of our group and vision. [https://strangenew.world/support-us](https://strangenew.world/support-us) **More Information** What we explore during our meetings really depends on who shows up and what they want to discuss: * The changing job market. What skills will matter in 10 years * The future of business and the creative industries * Chatbots, LLMs, and Agentic Workflows * Using AI for scientific or artistic exploration * Will generative art destroy Hollywood or save it? * What is consciousness? What constitutes intelligence? * The various types/platforms of vibecoding and which is best for your project * The end of capitalism as we know it * Are we entering the 2nd Cognitive Revolution? **Learn more at: [https://strangenew.world](https://strangenew.world)**
