On se rencontre chaque mercredi pour parler français. Parmi nous, il y a des gens qui ont le français comme langue maternelle, et des gens qui aiment le français et le maîtrisent plus ou moins. On aime discuter et parler de tout et de rien, et on est toujours content de recevoir des gens qui sont de passage ou des nouvelles personnes qui veulent écouter, parler, pratiquer ou poser des questions. Cette semaine, on retourne au Café Merkur, Café sympa et calme avec une cuisine de mediteranée orientale. La table est toujours gérée d'une façon très libre et relaxée, on se rencontre et on parle aux autres participants et participantes autour de nous. NOTE: Si vous comptez venir, inscrivez-vous s'il vous plaît, pour qu'on puisse prévoir assez (mais pas trop non plus) d'espace au restaurant. Comme ça, on sera à l'aise et l'endroit qui nous accueille aussi. On commence à 18h30 , mais ce n'est pas un problème de rejoindre après. Normalement, il y a au moins une dizaine de personnes qui vient aux rencontres. Cette rencontre est aussi annoncée sur notre groupe facebook ("Vienna French Meetings") A mercredi alors!

We will meet in a calm and friendly place to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom. There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening. Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding. We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?” Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed. The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

Du sprichst schon gut Deutsch (B2–C1) und möchtest einfach öfter reden? Dann bist du hier genau richtig. Wir treffen uns in kleinen Gruppen in gemütlichen Wiener Cafés und plaudern entspannt über alles, was uns gerade interessiert, oder über ein vorher vereinbartes Thema. Auch Muttersprachler:innen sind herzlich willkommen. Die kleine Runde ist bewusst gewählt: So hören wir einander gut und kommen leichter ins Gespräch. 👉 **Ein paar Infos, damit alles gut läuft:** – Bitte verwende deinen echten Vornamen und ein Profilfoto. – Melde dich nur an, wenn du wirklich kommen kannst. – Falls etwas dazwischenkommt, sag bitte rechtzeitig ab. – Die **genaue Location** wird am Vorabend des Treffens an die bestätigten Teilnehmer:innen kommuniziert und in den Kommentaren sichtbar sein. – Wer ohne Absage nicht erscheint, kann leider nicht in der Gruppe bleiben. Wir möchten die Treffen zuverlässig und angenehm für alle halten. Ich freue mich auf entspannte Gespräche und eine nette, motivierte Runde! 😊

**Achtung:** **Dieser Kurs besteht aus zwei Teilen: der 2. Teil folgt in zwei Wochen am 13. Juni!** Bitte stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie an beiden Kursteilen teilnehmen können! Manchmal lassen wir uns einschüchtern von anderen, die sich mit größter Selbstverständlichkeit mit ihren Ansichten und Interessen in den Vordergrund stellen. * **Manchmal sind wir sprachlos, wenn andere uns beleidigen, uns klein reden oder Dinge von uns verlangen, die wir nicht wollen, aber dennoch nicht ablehnen können.** In einer kleinen freundlichen Gruppe üben wir uns darin zu wachsen, fest zu stehen, Grenzen zu ziehen und uns durchzusetzen: körperlich, emotional und verbal. Damit wir es das nächste Mal da draußen auch schaffen! **Die Sprache im Workshop ist Deutsch.** Teilnehmende, deren Erstsprache nicht Deutsch ist, sollten mindestens **Deutschniveau B2** haben. Bei Verständnisfragen kann jedoch auf Englisch oder Französisch übersetzt werden. - **-->** **Dieser Workshop wurde neu erstellt, deshalb ist die Teilnahme kostenlos.** **Doch eine freiwillige Spende ist sehr willkommen!** **Hinweis:** **Dieser Kurs wird voraussichtlich in absehbarer Zeit auch auf Englisch und auf Französisch angeboten werden. Bei Interesse bitte dieser Gruppe folgen!** **+++++++** **STANDING TALL WITH CONFIDENCE - 1st part** **Attention please:** **This course consists of 2 parts!** **The 2nd part will take place the 13th of June.** Please make sure that you can participate at both parts! Sometimes we let ourselves be intimidated by others who naturally push themselves to the forefront with their views and interests. * **Sometimes we are left speechless when others insult us, belittle us, or demand things that we don’t want but feel unable to refuse.** In a small, friendly group, we practice growing, standing firm, setting boundaries, and asserting ourselves: physically, emotionally, and verbally – so that we can succeed out there next time! **The workshop language is German**. Participants whose first language is not German should have **at least a B2 level**. However, for comprehension questions, translations into English or French can be provided. **--> This workshop has been newly created, therefore the participation will be free of charge.** **But free donation will be very welcome!** **Note:** **This course is also expected to be offered in English in the near future. If you are interested, please follow this group!** **+++++++** **S'AFFIRMER AVEC ASSURANCE - 1ère partie** **Attention: ce cours est divisé en deux parties!** **La 2ème partie se déroulera au 13 juin.** S.v.p., assurez-vous de pouvoir participer à toutes les deux parties! Parfois, nous nous laissons intimider par d'autres qui se mettent en avant avec leurs opinions et leurs intérêts avec la plus grande assurance. * **Parfois, nous restons sans voix lorsque d'autres nous insultent, nous rabaissent ou exigent de nous des choses que nous ne voulons pas, mais que nous n'arrivons pourtant pas à refuser.** Au sein d'un petit groupe bienveillant, nous nous exerçons à grandir, à rester fermes, à poser des limites et à nous affirmer : physiquement, émotionnellement et verbalement. Pour que nous y arrivions aussi, la prochaine fois, dans le monde extérieur ! **La langue du workshop est l'allemand.** Les participants dont la langue maternelle n'est pas l'allemand doivent avoir **au moins un niveau B2.** En cas de questions de compréhension, une traduction en anglais ou en français est toutefois possible. **--> Cet atelier vient d'être crée et pour cette raison la participation sera gratuite.** **Mais une donation libre sera la bienvenue!** **Remarque :** **Ce cours sera probablement proposé prochainement aussi en français. Si vous êtes intéressé(e), n'hésitez pas à suivre ce groupe !**

Hello there! We'd like to welcome you to our FREE Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings hosted by Wolfgang, Hamid, Anil, Shantanu & friends which take place in Vienna – 7pm Thursdays. With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we normally sit on chairs to achieve yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats and no special clothing required. We are all volunteers of a Charity association and have many years of experience in offering free Sahaja Yoga Meditation classes. All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy of all is hiding in plain sight, within us. It's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically and cannot be paid for. The classes are designed to help those attending get into a genuine meditative state, which can be felt tangibly. It is quite effortless and spontaneous. The free classes feature introductory talks, video's, practical workshops and general question and answer opportunities, making them perfect for seekers trying to establish a state of yoga, and they are available across Vienna most evenings and throughout Austria. The idea is that you don't do yoga - you Achieve Yoga! Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple, time-honored technique. It helps those who enjoy it, reduce stress and increase wellness and health holistically. It brings better focus and helps people become more centered and better balanced. Anyone can do it. Founded by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a world wide movement for peace and self awakening. All the meetings and classes are free of any charge. Each week we go through simple meditation techniques, often with guided meditations to help reduce stress and achieve the peace of true meditation. We share tips on how to help stay in balance during the day and how to meditate at home. The meditation is based on connecting with the inner chakras (energy centres) and balancing the subtle body. The tradition and aims of meditation are explained which in essence is to be in the present with no mental activity or thoughts about the past or the future. Occasionally there are 1 day retreats to help those interested, deepen their individual experience and hear advice and tips from those who have been practicing for some time. It’s ultimately all about getting into ‘thoughtless awareness’, a natural state of being. 10 Reasons to try-out Sahaja Yoga Meditation in Vienna in 2015 It’s easy. You don’t have to spend years living in the mountains to achieve enlightenment. You don’t have to give up anything or spend weeks in silence. You don’t have to learn mantras or wear special clothes or even try to clear my mind. The meditation simply happens spontaneously. The classes are easy and fun, and as long as you keep up your daily ten minutes of meditation you find you are able to achieve a deep and peaceful meditation on a regular basis. It’s free. You don’t pay for your meditation. There are no catches, and there are no hidden expenses. If you missed attending classes one week, it doesn’t matter. You just picked up the classes again when you could manage it. It is simply the generosity of spirit of other Sahaja Yoga meditation practitioners that allows Sahaja Yoga to be taught to whomever desires it, at no cost. You can see results. You feel relaxed and you feel a deep sense of calm. Now you can also feel your chakras (energy centres) and through the meditation techniques learnt along the way you can understand the vibrations of your own energy centres. If you feel unwell you meditate and use the techniques you’ve learnt to heal your chakras, and you can then feel the centres clearing, and as a consequence your health improves. It’s all-inclusive. All the major religions and their core teachings are acknowledged and respected in Sahaja Yoga. No one’s spiritual journey is right or wrong. And through meditation the wisdom of all the great gurus and saints is easily revealed and understood. In fact, you’ll find that since you’ve been meditating you’ll come to understand and appreciate the teachings of great teachers such as Lao Tse, Buddha and Mohammed. You’re your own boss. You meditate and introspect at your own pace. You don’t have to keep up with others, or feel pressured into doing things you’re not comfortable with. You are your own teacher, your own guru, your own master. This technique of meditation empowers you and enables you to help yourself. You don’t have to rely on anybody else. Of course, there are many people who practice Sahaja Yoga Meditation who can teach you a great deal about the yoga & meditation and its various techniques. However, all that you need is ultimately within you. It’s everywhere. Sahaja Yoga is practiced in almost every country in the world. So, no matter where you travel you can always locate a local Sahaja Yoga Meditation programme that you can attend. Whenever you get the chance, and no matter where you are, You try to link up with other Sahaja Yoga practitioners and enjoy a collective meditation. (Meditating with others is a much deeper and more powerful experience than meditating alone.) It’s portable. You don’t need to take anything with you to meditate: no mats, no potions, no special clothing or books. You can meditate anywhere – in a quiet room or on a noisy bus; at the beach or watching a movie. Thoughtless awareness (the state of meditation) is easy to achieve if you keep meditating daily, and it can be achieved in almost any situation. It makes sense. Everything you’ll learn will make sense. There is a lot of common sense in Sahaja Yogameditation, and even though not everything was known to you (for example, the chakras and their respective qualities), once you have a chance to learn more about the meditation, it feels very natural and comfortable. Everybody does it. When you begin a hobby or join a new group, you often find that there are particular types of people who are in the group with you. For example, some groups attract younger people, others older folk; some groups have a lot of people who are wealthy, or people who live in a certain part of town. In Sahaja Yoga you will find people from every walk of life, from every demographic – male and female, young and old, rich and poor, every shape, size and colour, with varying interests, languages and beliefs. You don’t have to be a certain type of person to do Sahaja Yoga meditation. It is one of those rarities: something for everybody. You feel good. Without fail, every time you sit down to meditate you feel better. Whether you manage to have a deep meditation or not makes no difference, and as a consequence your family and friends are reaping the benefits. So there you have it......ten reasons...... Pop along to a Free Sahaja Yoga Meditation weekly Meeting

Dear Data Enthusiasts, Join us again on **29th of May** at **A1** to learn about the psychological implications on employees when transforming the data landscape of an organization. In addition, we will finally have a talk about the open source framework Metaxy and how it can help to cut costs of multimodal AI pipelines. A big thanks goes to our co-organizers from the A1 Telekom and our sponsor Cloudera! **A Psychological Autopsy of a Data Transformation** *Dávid Farkas* Five years ago, a small European university decided to build and implement a data strategy from scratch. Greenfield in the truest sense: data governance was an unheard term and in practice it meant local Excel files duplicated across inboxes; "the database" usually referred to whichever spreadsheet someone had emailed most recently. Over four years, we designed and rolled out new systems, established governance structures, hired a team, and delivered real wins. We also watched a significant portion of the work get undone in months once leadership changed. This talk is a psychological autopsy of that transformation — what was planned, what worked, what quietly collapsed, and why. Universities are an unusually honest laboratory for studying data initiatives: decentralized power, competing stakeholder logics, weak formal hierarchies, and ambiguous success metrics make every human dysfunction that exists in corporate environments more visible. Drawing on behavioural science and nearly five years leading this initiative, I'll walk through the recurring failure patterns I see across data and AI projects more broadly — algorithm aversion, NIH syndrome, the gap between executive sponsorship and operational ownership, and the under-recognised role of organisational identity in determining which systems survive a leadership change. The argument is not that technology doesn't matter — it's that the human substrate determines whether any of it sticks. Borrowing Kranzberg: technology is never neutral, and neither are the people implementing it. **Dávid Farkas** is a research psychologist (PhD) and data scientist based in Budapest. He co-founded Principle Zero, which helps companies, NGOs, and researchers take on complex challenges in data strategy, digital and AI transformation, research, product development, and science communication. We bring behavioural science to problems most consultancies treat as purely technical, focusing on the human and organisational factors that determine whether ambitious projects survive contact with reality. Previously he led data science and digitalisation at MOME Budapest, with earlier industry experience applying machine learning. **Optimizing Multimodal AI Pipelines with Metaxy** *Georg Heiler, Hernan Picatto* The AI era has caused a fundamental shift in computing, moving us toward complex multimodal pipelines. However, these new systems are often incredibly wasteful. Right now, small changes to an input can trigger massive recomputations across very expensive processing steps. In this talk, we will explore Metaxy, an open source Python framework built to solve this exact problem. Metaxy provides sample level metadata versioning and acts as the universal glue for incremental data pipelines. We will discuss how its field level provenance allows your pipeline to only recompute what actually changed. If you update an audio file, for example, Metaxy knows to skip downstream face recognition steps that only rely on video. Whether you are a startup stretching your compute budget, an enterprise scaling ML infrastructure, or a researcher in academia, you will learn how to use Metaxy to iterate faster, cut cloud costs, and build highly efficient AI workflows. **Georg Heiler** is a co-founder @Jubust and a Senior data expert at Magenta as well as a ML-ops engineer at ASCII. He is solving challenges with data. His interests include geospatial graphs and time series. Georg transitions the data platform of Magenta to the cloud and is handling large scale multi-modal ML-ops challenges at ASCII. **Hernan Picatto** is a Computer Science PhD candidate at the Vienna University of Technology researching firm-level supply chains and corporate networks using NLP and Common Crawl data. Formerly an engineer at JPMorgan Chase and ZhiZhouKeji, he holds an MA from UCSD. His broad interests span big data, visualization, and time series causality. 🎤🎤 Open Mic We are going to open up the stage after the talks for community announcements.
