Flow State: The Art of AI Automation with n8n & Zapier
Details
### Flow State: The Art of AI Automation with n8n & Zapier Date & Time: Thursday, December 4th | 6:30 - 8:30pm Location: NYIT, 16 W 61st St, New York, NY 10023 (11th Floor Auditorium)
Step into the invisible layer of the internet—where your repetitive tasks dissolve, and your digital tools begin to "speak" to one another. Building on the visual creativity of Vibe Code, this workshop shifts the focus to structural creativity: designing the intelligent systems that power your work and life.
In this hands-on session, we’ll move beyond simple shortcuts and explore the art of workflow orchestration. Using powerful platforms like n8n and Zapier, we will treat automation as a canvas, connecting disparate apps to create seamless, self-running ecosystems. The goal isn’t just efficiency; it’s about designing "invisible robots" that handle the noise so you can focus on the signal.
No coding background is required—just a curiosity about how things work and a desire to reclaim your time.
What You’ll Learn
The "Quick Sketch" with Zapier Master the art of rapid automation. Learn to use Zapier’s AI features to instantly connect your favorite apps (Slack, Gmail, Notion) and create smart loops that filter emails, summarize meetings, and organize your chaotic digital inputs.
Deep Orchestration with n8n Dive into the node-based visual interface of n8n. We’ll look at how to build complex, branching workflows that mimic human decision-making—integrating custom AI Agents to parse data, generate content, and execute multi-step logic.
Building Your Own AI Agent: Combine the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) with automation tools to create a personal assistant that lives in your apps—capable of drafting responses, researching topics, or curating daily briefings automatically.
Systems Thinking for Creatives Learn to see your work not as a series of chores, but as a system waiting to be designed. We'll explore how to map out your "digital flow" to eliminate friction before you even touch a tool.
By the end of the evening, you’ll walk away with your own fully functional automation running in the cloud—and a new perspective on how to design a life where technology works for you, not the other way around.
Light refreshments and networking to follow.
