🚀 Hey, everyone! The **largest English-speaking tech & business community from Andalucía** is now coming to Barcelona! What started as a bi-weekly morning coffee uniting like-minded entrepreneurial minds in Málaga ☕️ is expanding — and we’re bringing that same raw energy, openness, and connection to Barcelona. As always, there’s no formal agenda or moderation — just real, unfiltered conversations in English (and a bit of Spanish) 🗣️ Our focus remains the same: cultivating meaningful relationships, creating space to exchange ideas, share journeys, and learn from others building in the startup ecosystem 👥 It’s the perfect environment to test ideas, form new alliances, and spark unexpected collaborations — all over great coffee and breakfast. Let’s gather, connect, and dive into thoughtful conversations in a relaxed setting. Barcelona, we’re coming!

This book club approaches foundational texts that have shaped the past three centuries through a cross-disciplinary reading series that invites us to engage with the questions of our present. Each session pairs one of these works with a strictly contemporary text (as an optional reading), creating a dialogue in which the past becomes a lens for thinking the present, and vice versa. **No academic background is required; curiosity and openness are all you need.** *BUY THE BOOKS HERE:* **This month we will be reading [Against Interpretation and Other Essays by Susan Sontag.](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/against-interpretation/) Paired with [Ways of Seeing by John Berger](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/ways-of-seeing/).** Hosted by Josefina Alippi

“Has triat un abecedari, m’has proposat uns temes, i tot i que jo no conec les preguntes amb exactitud, hi he pogut reflexionar una mica. Estic preparat per respondre a tot, perquè el que em salva, la cosa que ens salva és la clàusula. La clàusula és aquesta: tot això no serà utilitzat fins després de la meva mort. Creu-me, m’anima molt sentir-me com un esperit que et parla des de l’altra banda. I només cal haver-los invocat algun cop per saber que els esperits no donen respostes molt profundes ni molt intel·ligents. Serà una cosa breu, però em sembla bé, tot em sembla bé. Comencem per on vulguis: a, b, c…” Fa 30 anys que el filòsof Gilles Deleuze es llençava per la finestra del seu pis a París, deixant com a testament una entrevista en forma d’abecedari amb lletres concepte. Ara algú mira per aquella mateixa finestra, mentre intenta reconstruir la vida d’un altre home del qui només coneixem la seva tomba i un manuscrit.

Hola a tod@s!! Regresamos de vacaciones de Semana Santa con una nueva conferencia. Montse Escolá nos hablará de los 7 planetas clásicos y de los últimos incorporados en el programa astrológico. Cómo manifiestan sus cualidades y dones según nuestra carta astral y la posición en el cielo en el momento de nacer. Es cuando el programa se inserta por el chakra corona, al nacer en éste plano, y ser desconectado de la madre al cortar el cordón umbilical. La carta es el programa que regirá cada vida. El tiempo es el artífice de cada experiencia. La astrología fue dada a los hombres por los ángeles caídos, igual que otros conocimientos, como el arte de curar con plantas o la agricultura. Daremos unas pautas para poder hacer y entender cada aspecto en una Carta Astral , y sus correspondencias con sus casas y planetas. El cielo se divide en 12 sectores que representan áreas específicas de la vida cotidiana. Mientras el signo zodiacal indica el rasgo, la casa indica el escenario donde ese rasgo se manifiesta. Comentaremos sobre los Nefilims y las diferencias entre Enlil y Enki. Solo decir que, a parte de un programa, algunos también traen la energía de un Espíritu muy antiguo. Apremia el tiempo del despertar, las semillas estelares deben de reconocerse y emerger del silencio. Montse Escolá: Divulgadora de la Nueva Conciencia Planetaria. Sábado 11 de abril a las 19h. Restaurante Nova Galicia , C/Calabria 224 Metro L-5 Entenza. OS ESPERAMOS!!

Iremos andando por el camí de Ronda des de Vilanova i la Geltrú hasta Sitges, donde podremos comer nuestra propia comida, o elegir uno de los cientos de restaurantes que ofrece la ciudad. ​*Horarios* Quedamos el Domingo 12 de Abril en la estacion de tren (Ubicacion cuando reserves) a las 10:40. ¡Puntuales! El tren sale a las 11 (R2 Sud). *Cada uno es responsable de comprar su billete*. ​Si alguien ya viene en tren, puede esperarnos en el andén de la R2Sud. ​Para volver cogeremos el tren en la estación de Sitges, alrededor de las 17h. Por supuesto si a alguien le apetece quedarse mas rato, puede quedarse mas rato. ​*Que hay que llevar?* Recomendado: calzado de tierra, tipo bambas de trail, con suela rugosa y adherente. ​Medio litro de agua (o un litro si quieres llevar para todo el dia). ​Bocadillo o tupper para la comida, o €€€ para el restaurante. ​Sombrero o gorra. ​Gafas de sol para los que tengan vista sensible. ​Crema solar, especialmente los que sean muy sensibles al sol. ​Bañador y toalla ligera, si hay algún atrevido/a que quiera mojarse. ​Ganas de mover el cuerpo y pasarlo bien!!

Vente a ver la exhibición de Walker Evans y luego, si te apetece, tomar algo por la zona. Walker Evans (1903–1975) es una figura esencial de la fotografía moderna y uno de los grandes cronistas visuales de los Estados Unidos del siglo XX. Sus imágenes, de apariencia sencilla pero de profunda complejidad, retratan con lucidez la vida cotidiana, los paisajes urbanos y los rostros anónimos de un país en transformación. Pionero del estilo documental, Evans combinó una mirada directa y austera con una curiosidad inagotable por los signos de la cultura popular, que le llevó a definir una época al mismo tiempo que la cuestionó. https://kbr.fundacionmapfre.org/exposiciones/walker-evans-now-and-then/ \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Vine a veure l'exhibició de Waker Evans i, després, si et ve de gust, prendre alguna cosa per la zona.

Walker Evans (1903–1975) is a central figure in modern photography and one of the great visual chroniclers of twentieth-century United States. His images, seemingly simple yet deeply complex, depict with clarity everyday life, urban landscapes, and the anonymous faces of a country in transformation. A pioneer of Documentary Photography, Evans combined a direct and austere gaze with an inexhaustible curiosity about the signs of popular culture, which allowed him to define an era while simultaneously questioning it. https://kbr.fundacionmapfre.org/exposiciones/walker-evans-now-and-then/

¿Cuál es la relación entre los filósofos y la ciudad de Barcelona? ¿Cómo pasaron por ella? ¿Qué reflexiones han surgido de su encuentro y cuáles siguen ocultas en los callejones de la ciudad? Como hacían los filósofos peripatéticos, la reflexión se desarrollará también en movimiento. En cada etapa, un filósofo y una idea permitirán que se desplieguen las ideas sobre la idea de ciudad. De hecho, el hilo conductor del recorrido es la propia idea de «ciudad». Será un pensar caminando, un cuestionar conociendo. El "Tour" es una experiencia colectiva de diálogo filosófico apta para tod@s, tanto para l@s que conocen bien la filosofía como para l@s que no la conocen en absoluto. Para todas las edades y perspectivas. El recorrido dura alrededor de 1 hora y 45 minutos. Al finalizar, podrás realizar un aporte libre, de acuerdo con lo que consideres que ha valido la experiencia. ¿Qué esperas para animarte a vivir esta nueva practica filosófica? CÓMO PARTICIPAR 1. Reserva tu presencia en Meetup 2. El aporte libre se podrá realizar a final del "tour" en efectivo o por: Revolut: +393388716566 Paypal: proemaci@gmail.com Transferencia bancaria: IBAN: IT25Y0760103200000070285267 (motivo del pago: Barcelona) ATENCIÓN: Si no puedes venir, por favor date de baja en Meetup o avísanos por WhatsApp (+34613937727). Las ausencias sin aviso podrán limitar la participación en próximos tours. ¡Gracias por tu colaboración! Importante: Para poder realizar el tour necesitamos al menos 3 personas inscritas. Si no se llega a ese número, tu reserva quedará válida para el siguiente tour disponible, si quieres y puedes.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture.

As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries.

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
