Akt x Anatomie / Life Drawing x Anatomy
Curious about starting life drawing? Or want to deepen your practice?
Join us at Kunstraum Heartspace, where we enjoy a wonderful life drawing session every Wednesday evening!
Our teacher Thorsten has many years of experience and will gently guide you to your next level. This course is designed for beginners as well as experienced life drawing artists.
Our models change weekly. They allow us to practice short and long poses. This allows your eye to train in recognising movement and form, while also giving you enough time to study the model more closely.
In addition, every week, we include a short excursion into different aspects of figurative drawing – be it anatomical issues, lighting, or the structure of the human figure.
You can join and pause at any time, as you will receive individual guidance.
**Materials:**
* Please bring pencils, sharpeners, and erasers!
* We provide paper, but of course, you can bring your own sketch book or preferred paper types.
**Tickets:**
* Please book your ticket on Ticket Tailor. [Here is the link: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/kunstraumheartspace/1891935 ](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/kunstraumheartspace/1891935)
Long Pose! Life Drawing & Portrait Painting @PAKD
**In Association With the Berlin Portrait Academy and PAKD Gallery / PAKD Art Lab**
* **www.berlinportraitacademy.com**
* **www.pakd-gallery.com/artlab**
* **Cost: 15 Euros**
A regular opportunity to study the nude or portrait from life for 3 hours, every single week!
We have one long pose - you can choose whether to draw several studies from different angles around the room, or take your time to do a single sustained drawing or painting in full detail.
The pose is held for 20 minute intervals with five minute breaks in-between so the model to rest and stretch, and so artists can move between seats if they choose.
We provide some materials such as paper, pencils & pastels for free. Canvases, brushes and acrylic paint can be purchased at the event.
We hope to see you there very soon!
AI Guild Dinner: Tech Debt when Vibe Coding. The AI Revolution in Software
**👉 [Register here](https://www.linkedin.com/events/7429279114164850688?viewAsMember=true) 👈**
Together with the AI Guild, we’re excited to reunite with the **[AI Guild Dinner](https://www.theguild.ai/)** at our **[Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Centre](https://careers.db.com/explore-the-bank/careers-in-technology/berlin.techcentre/)**!
**Agenda:**
**18.30 Doors Open for Networking & Refreshments**
Arrive at Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Center, Otto-Suhr-Allee 16, 10585 Berlin. How to get there: Travel via the Bahnhof Zoo and Ernst-Reuter-Platz - use the subway U2 or the Bus M45.
Welcome and Introduction to the Berlin AI Guild Dinner by **[Chris Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisarmbruster/)**, MD at [AI Guild](https://theguild.ai/).
**19.00 Technical Debt when Vibe Coding**
**[Dishu Bagga](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dishu-bagga-632236163/)**, Software Engineering, Deutsche Bank.
AI assistants, scaffolding tools, and templates let us ship software faster than ever. You prompt, paste, and move on. Most of the time, it works. But while everything appears smooth, technical debt quietly accumulates. Modern tools optimize for speed—not architecture. Layers blur, boundaries erode, and structural decisions get locked in long before anyone notices.
In this talk, we’ll use real examples and live coding to show how AI-accelerated development can produce clean-looking code but fragile systems. Small shortcuts compound. Complexity hides in plain sight.
The goal is not to criticize AI tooling—but to remind us: Generated code still carries architectural consequences. Speed is easy. Sustainable systems require intent.
**19.30 Agentic AI in a Global Corporate: The first iteration**
**[Dijle Kara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dijlekara/)**, AI Hub Product Manager at Henkel
What happens when autonomous AI agents meet the complexity of a global enterprise? From legacy systems to governance and scale, the first deployments reveal both promise and friction. What actually works in production? Where do agents fail? And how do organizations adapt when software begins to act autonomously?
**20.00 Announcement of the Berlin Exhibition Pix2GenAI**
**[Dr. Kristian Rother](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristian-rother/)**, Python Developer, Data Scientist, and Trainer
Code meets art. *Pix2GenAI* showcases computer-generated artworks created with algorithms, mathematics, and AI models—exploring the space between handcrafted code and generative intelligence. Kristian will invite you to the exhibition on 28 March 2026.

Immersive, Evolving Soundscapes Masterclass with NAOBA
**RSVP on [343 Labs website](https://343labs.de/events/naoba-masterclass/) to reserve your seat!**
Ableton User Group and 343 Labs Berlin is proud to welcome NAOBA as part of our Visiting Artist Masterclass series!
In this workshop, NAOBA will share her process of building Ableton Live templates that allow her to create and transform sound in real time during performances. Using her archive of field recordings, NAOBA designs flexible systems with Max for Live devices, custom effect chains, and macro-mapped MIDI controllers, allowing the templates to function as expressive instruments alongside live flute and voice.
NAOBA will demonstrate how raw environmental recordings are organized, layered, and continuously reshaped through macro controls, spatial effects, and live processing. This approach enables fluid improvisation and the creation of immersive, evolving soundscapes during concerts or streaming performances.
There will also be space for discussion and questions about workflow, template architecture, and creative approaches to sound design and live performance.

The War Room: Intro to War Gaming at The Arcane Foundry
**⚔️ Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry ⚔️**
Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$25**, you’ll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint — a **$40-70 value!** Bring your creativity, relax, and let’s make something awesome together.
This is a limited time promotional offer. All regiments are made to order and require **4-5 hours of production time**, so please give me at least a **5 day notice**, so I can have them ready for you!
All miniatures are printed with a commercial license.
**Choose one from Below:**
* 20 Empire Soldiers
* 20 Dwarf Warriors
* 20 Elf Spearmen
Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**.
My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession.
During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form.
Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations.
**🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**
From Web Forms to Web Components - Burton Smith
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively.
This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way.

Columbus Code & Coffee 85 @ Improving
Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you!
**What to Expect at the Intro Circle**
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup:
* Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics
Round 1 - (7 secs max):
* Your name
* What you're working on
* What you can help others with
Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
How LLMs Like ChatGPT Actually Work and How to Build With Them
**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.**
We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on:
**How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.**
We’ll cover:
* what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level)
* why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.)
* how people are building real systems with them today
* where things break in practice
This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A.
Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join.
No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems.
We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.
