Wall Concept Workshop â Create Images Designed for Space
## Wall Concept Workshop â Create Images Designed for Space
This is not a casual photoshoot.
This session is dedicated to creating photographs specifically designed to live on a wall â in a real room, with intention.
We will shoot with one question in mind:
**Where will this image hang?**
Instead of random concepts, we will build visuals that fit a specific interior:
⢠Modern minimalist living room
⢠Warm textured bedroom
⢠Industrial loft
⢠Office or creative workspace
⢠Dark moody hallway
Participants will:
⢠Define a room concept before shooting
⢠Choose color palettes that complement that space
⢠Create a single statement piece or a cohesive series
⢠Shoot with final print size in mind
⢠Plan framing and aspect ratio intentionally
⢠Discuss grading for print vs screen
We will also cover:
â Tonal consistency for series
â Negative space for wall breathing
â Horizontal vs vertical dominance
â Print scale (60Ă90, 100Ă150, square formats)
â Fine art paper vs canvas considerations
This session is slower, conceptual, and deliberate.
The goal is not volume. The goal is to leave with one image â or a small series â that genuinely belongs in a room.
Limited spots to maintain creative focus.
Cost to cover printing & creativity: 45âŹ
Duration: approx. 3 hours
If you want to shoot for Instagram, this is not it.
If you want to create work that transforms a space, join.

How Real Is Reality? Going Beyond the Five Senses
**The Mysteries of Non-Duality, Spirituality, and Metaphysics**
**Only 5% of the universe is composed of normal matter,** yet we often dedicate 100% of our focus and attention to it. This creates an **illusion of separateness** where we believe we are alone and that when our material body dies, that's the end.
We even term this physical substance "matter" because we believe it's all that truly matters.
In contrast, **95% of our universe consists of energies and a mysterious void** that actually governs our universe, bodies, experiences, and lives. This non-material universe is also known as the **spiritual universe**. As we delve into this spiritual dimension, we start to see how all things are interconnected.
**Imagine the ocean and two waves approaching the shore**. One exclaims, "My God, we're going to crash at the shore, we're going to die!" The other responds, "No! You cannot die. You are part of the ocean!"
Like the waves, we simultaneously are individuals and part of a greater whole. Yet, most of us are (no longer) aware of this. Opening up, moving beyond our wave-like limitations, and recognizing our unity with the ocean can change everything. It makes life much easier, more enjoyable, and fulfilling.
**Agenda:**
* Introduction to Non-Duality, Spirituality, and Metaphysics: We will watch videos covering different aspects and explanations of reality, non-duality, etc.
* Sharing of questions and thoughts.
* Conclusions and how to apply this understanding to your life (if you wish).
**You are invited to join** a somewhat mystical workshop exploring the timeless wisdom of the universe. We'll dive into spirituality, non-duality, metaphysics, and the interconnectedness of all things to uncover deeper personal fulfillment and an understanding of life. Whether you're new to these topics or a seasoned practitioner, this event is the perfect opportunity to explore, learn, and grow. Come with an open mind and leave feeling inspired and more connected to a community passionate about these intriguing subjects.
No matter where you are on your spiritual journey, this event can offer surprising and important insights about yourself that you may have never considered before.
**Important:**
We don't have to agree on everything. This isn't about proving someone wrong, but rather about learning from each other, providing mutual inspiration, hearing different perspectives, and evolving to live a life we love.
**Sign Up Now.**
**Deepen Your Understanding of the New Consciousness:** Intuition is replacing intellect as our primary decision-making guide. This new consciousness transcends the limitations of the five senses. It is beyond the five senses.
**See What Is Possible.**
Dieter Langenecker
PS: A contribution of ⏠15,- for room rent, coffee/tea, and cookies will be collected.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**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
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, weâll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifactsâliving documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
Youâll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. Weâll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, weâll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isnât)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether youâre building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.
