*Presentación-coloquio sobre el libro Los algoritmos de la vida*: Una mirada al orden oculto en el caos. **Descripción del evento:** Entrada libre. Sin coste. ¿Somos parte de una inteligencia colectiva que nos precede y rige el funcionamiento de todos los reinos de seres vivos? Te invito a la librería **+Bernat** (c/ Buenos Aires 6, Barcelona) para compartir una reflexión sobre el *elegante orden que acoge al caos de lo vivo*. En este encuentro, exploraremos los algoritmos que rigen desde la inteligencia del universo hasta nuestra relación actual con la Inteligencia Artificial. Es una invitación a habitar el MISTERIO. Conversaremos acerca de cómo, en esta era de la IA y del transhumanismo, el movimiento *Personal Degrowth* surge como una vía para recuperar nuestra naturaleza relacional y nuestra conexión con la TOTALIDAD. **Puntos a tratar:** · **La inteligencia colectiva:** De la simbiosis bacteriana a la red *wood wide web* de los bosques. · **El futuro humano:** ¿Estamos ante un salto evolutivo o ante la extinción de nuestra esencia? Ven a conversar y a ser partícipe de esta reflexión inclusiva. Porque, como decía Einstein, *la mente es como un paracaídas: solo funciona si está abierto*

¿Te gustaría vivir un espacio de introspección profunda, conexión con otras personas afines y recibir guía terapéutica mientras exploras tus propios procesos internos? Te invito a participar en una experiencia única e íntima: El Juego de la Transformación, acompañado por mi presencia como facilitadora y terapeuta Gestalt en formación avanzada. Esta propuesta es mucho más que un juego de mesa; es un viaje simbólico, emocional y espiritual hacia lo que verdaderamente importa en tu vida. ⸻ 🌟 ¿Qué es el Juego de la Transformación? El Juego de la Transformación es una herramienta de desarrollo personal creada en la comunidad espiritual de Findhorn (Escocia), reconocida por su enfoque profundo y a la vez lúdico. A través de una dinámica estructurada, el juego permite que explores un tema vital para ti en este momento de tu vida. Puede ser un desafío, una pregunta, una intención, un bloqueo, una búsqueda… El juego ofrece un marco simbólico para que observes tu vida desde una nueva perspectiva, mientras recibes insights, espejos y mensajes a través de cartas, obstáculos, ayudas y reflejos que aparecen en el tablero. Todo está al servicio de tu proceso interior. Jugarlo en grupo, con otras personas comprometidas con su camino de crecimiento, lo transforma en una experiencia potente y sanadora. Y hacerlo con acompañamiento terapéutico… lo convierte en una puerta de acceso a capas más profundas de tu verdad. ⸻ 🎲 ¿Cómo se juega? Cada participante llega con una intención clara, una pregunta vital, algo que desea transformar o comprender en su vida. Esa será la brújula de tu viaje. A medida que avanzas por el tablero, irás pasando por distintas “casas” que representan momentos de tu camino: • Aprendizajes • Desafíos • Interacciones con los demás • Sorpresas • Retrocesos • Momentos de claridad • Y muchos otros elementos que reflejan con asombrosa precisión lo que estás viviendo en la realidad. Hay cartas que representan luces, sombras, creencias, emociones. Hay acciones y reflexiones que surgen desde lo profundo. El juego funciona como un espejo simbólico de tu proceso, y te permite observarlo con más claridad y compasión. ⸻ 🌀 ¿Por qué esta experiencia es especial? Porque no estarás solo/a jugando. Estaré contigo en todo momento como facilitadora y acompañante terapéutica. Durante toda la experiencia, ofreceré: • Escucha activa y profunda • Dinámicas breves para anclar lo que surge • Contención emocional en los momentos delicados • Herramientas de la terapia Gestalt para traer conciencia al presente • Propuestas de integración corporal o creativa si el grupo lo permite Además, el número reducido de plazas (solo 4 personas) asegura una experiencia íntima, cálida, con espacio para cada una de las voces. ⸻ 🍇 Pica-pica consciente: vegano, sin gluten y delicioso Durante el evento, disfrutarás de un pequeño brunch o pica-pica nutritivo, preparado con amor y cuidado. Todos los alimentos serán veganos y sin gluten, para respetar diferentes sensibilidades y mantener una energía ligera y elevada durante el juego. Comer también será parte del ritual: compartir un alimento saludable mientras compartimos nuestras verdades. ⸻ 💫 Un espacio para reconectar contigo Sabemos que la vida cotidiana muchas veces no nos deja respirar. Vamos de tarea en tarea, sosteniendo emociones sin digerir, con la sensación de que algo esencial se nos escapa. El Juego de la Transformación te invita a detenerte. A mirar hacia dentro. A preguntar con sinceridad: “¿Qué necesito hoy para estar más alineado/a con mi verdad?” “¿Qué patrones estoy repitiendo?” “¿Qué recursos tengo para atravesar esta etapa?” “¿Qué parte de mí quiere florecer?” Y desde ahí, desde esa sinceridad interna, abrimos un espacio de escucha colectiva y transformación personal. ⸻ 🤍 Un juego, pero no cualquier juego Aunque tenga el formato de un juego de mesa, este no es un pasatiempo superficial. Es una experiencia de desarrollo personal con una metodología muy bien diseñada, que puede tener efectos transformadores. El tablero, las cartas, los dados… todo está al servicio de tu propia sabiduría interior. He visto personas emocionarse, soltar viejas cargas, encontrar claridad, recibir mensajes que necesitaban escuchar. Y lo más hermoso: hacerlo en compañía. Porque cuando compartimos nuestro camino con otros, se vuelve más humano, más bello, más real. ⸻ 🧘‍♀️ ¿A quién está dirigido? Este evento es ideal para ti si: • Estás en un proceso de búsqueda interior • Te interesa el autoconocimiento y la espiritualidad • Sientes que hay algo en tu vida que necesita un cambio o comprensión • Te gusta el trabajo en grupo y los espacios de intimidad emocional • Quieres vivir una experiencia diferente, con profundidad y diversión • Estás dispuesto/a a mirar hacia dentro con honestidad y apertura No es necesario tener experiencia previa.

We’re thrilled to announce the next edition of the BcnRust Meetup, this time hosted by **[Protofy](https://protofy.xyz/)**! Join us for an evening exploring two very different but equally ambitious Rust projects: an AI-native virtual machine that rethinks how code is executed, and a distributed task queue built as a hands-on journey into async Rust, concurrency, and fault-tolerant systems. Whether you're interested in language runtimes, AI agents, distributed systems, or simply seeing how Rust enables bold ideas, this meetup is for you. **Driver: An Agentic VM in Rust** by [Cristian Sánchez](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cr3at0r/) Most virtual machines are deterministic by design. LLMs break that. But what if AI wasn't an external API on top, but a native execution primitive inside the VM itself? Driver is a Rust VM where AI is a first-class execution primitive. The stdlib is aware of whether it's being invoked by deterministic bytecode or by an LLM-generated action and behaves accordingly. We'll cover the practical decisions behind the core VM, and the toolkit around it. **Aether: Learning Async Rust by building a Distributed Task Queue** by [Arnau Berenguer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arnau-berenguer-jimenez/) Building a distributed system is a great way to learn async Rust because you run into all the hard parts for real. In this talk I'll walk through Aether, a personal project of a task queue that lets you submit and run Python scripts on a cluster from a CLI. We'll cover the system architecture, how to handle multiple concurrent tasks sharing state, how to handle loss of connection, and propagating cancellation signals on concurrent tasks over the network. Along the way we'll see the honest lessons learned and what makes async Rust hard but fun. **Why Attend?** * Explore advanced Rust applications, from AI-native runtimes to distributed infrastructure. * Learn practical lessons about virtual machine design, async programming, concurrency, and fault tolerance. * Discover how experienced Rust developers approach complex systems and architectural trade-offs. * Connect with Barcelona's Rust community and exchange ideas with fellow engineers, makers, and enthusiasts. * Get inspired by real-world projects that push Rust beyond the usual web services and CLI tools. Whether you're a Rust beginner curious about what's possible, or a seasoned developer looking to dive deeper into systems programming, you'll leave with new ideas, technical insights, and plenty to discuss. Let’s build, learn, and geek out over Rust together! 🦀 **Streaming**: We will stream it via YouTube so you can also subscribe to our [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@bcnrust) to get notified when we go live.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
