TALLER DE RAKU
TALLER DE RAKU
Taller de cocción cerámica Raku Después de semanas construyendo el horno —cortando, probando y ajustando cada detalle— por fin estamos listos para compartirlo. Este taller propone una aproximación práctica y experimental a la cocción cerámica mediante distintas técnicas de Raku, explorando procesos, materiales y resultados únicos. *** ### ¿Qué es el Raku? El Raku es una técnica de cocción cerámica tradicional japonesa caracterizada por extraer las piezas del horno al rojo vivo (aprox. 1000 °C) y colocarlas en contenedores con materiales orgánicos (serrín, hojas, plumas, etc.). Este proceso genera una atmósfera de reducción que produce efectos únicos: acabados metálicos, ahumados y craquelados irrepetibles. *** ### Técnicas que exploraremos Durante el taller experimentaremos con diferentes tipos de cocción, según su nivel de intervención: ### **Menos agresivas** * Enfriado natural sin choque térmico * *Sagar*: piezas envueltas en aluminio con materiales orgánicos * *Pit firing*: cocción al fuego con la pieza envuelta en tejidos y materiales orgánicos * Carbonación / cocción en gaceta: reducción en contenedores cerrados ### **Medio agresivas** * Extracción a alta temperatura sin choque térmico posterior * Rakú dulce (pelo, azúcar, etc.): intervenciones directas sobre la pieza caliente ### **Muy agresivas** * Técnicas con choque térmico para generar efectos más intensos * *Naked Raku*: con preparación previa de engobes y reducción en serrín * *Obvara*: inmersión en mezcla de agua, harina, levadura y azúcar *** ### Formatos del taller ### **Para ceramistas** * Trae tus propias piezas listas para Raku (bizcochadas) * Experimenta con diferentes técnicas de superficie * Duración: 4–5 horas * Precio: 80 €/persona ### **Para público general** * Día 1: creación de piezas * Día 2: cocción Raku * (Día 3 opcional según formato) * Horario: de 9:30 h a 14:30 h No es necesario tener experiencia previa. Estamos preparando sesiones con piezas incluidas para que puedas vivir el proceso completo desde cero. *** ### ¿Qué te llevarás? * Introducción práctica a la cocción Raku * Experimentación con diferentes técnicas y acabados * Comprensión de procesos de reducción y choque térmico * Piezas únicas e irrepetibles *** ### 📅 Información práctica 📍 La Clandestina (Poblenou) 🗓 Viernes 16 de abril ⏰ De 9:30a 14:30 h 💸 Precio: 80 € (materiales incluidos) 📩 Inscripciones: hola@laclandestinadepoblenou.org

Ibaibi - Bikepacking y presencia en la naturaleza
Ibaibi - Bikepacking y presencia en la naturaleza
**IBAIBI: Tu primera experiencia de bikepacking** 🚴 **conexión con la naturaleza** **y contigo** 🌳 Regálate dos días para saborear el camino sin prisas. **Ibaibi** es mucho más que un viaje en bicicleta. Es una invitación a explorarte y reconocerte a través de dinámicas de conciencia corporal desde una nueva perspectiva, utilizando la bicicleta como herramienta para conectar contigo y con el entorno. Es una ruta diseñada para disfrutar de la sencillez: rodamos con lo mínimo para ganar en libertad. **📅 Fechas:** 30 y 31 de mayo. Salida el sábado por la mañana y vuelta el domingo por la tarde **🚴Nivel:** Iniciación (es suficiente si sueles haces salidas de medio día en bici). **🎒Equipaje:** Dormimos en bugalows, así que sólo debes llevar ropa y algo de comida para mediodía. ✨**Esencia:** Combinamos el pedaleo con dinámicas de conciencia corporal y meditación. **👋Punto de encuentro:** Salimos y volvemos de Barcelona. 🔎 **Resumen de la experiencia** Salimos el sábado por la mañana desde Barcelona para hacer unas 4-5 horas de pedaleo y varias paradas en las que haremos dinámicas de conciencia corporal y presencia. El objetivo es que puedas apreciar la naturaleza y vivir las sensaciones de otra manera. La ruta será sencilla, de unos 35km y 300m de desnivel, casi todo por caminos y pistas junto a rios. Llegamos a un camping en el que disfrutaremos de un fantástico asado argentino para cenar. Dormiremos en bungalows rodeados de naturaleza. El domingo la ruta de vuelta a Barcelona será por caminos diferentes al día anterior, también siguiendo el cauce de ríos, con unos 45km en total y unos 300m+. 🏷️ **Inversión:** **250€ (descuento si vienes con un/a amigo/a)** 😊 **Incluye:** ✅ Asado argentino con carne y verduras el sábado por la noche ✅ Alojamiento en habitaciones dobles en bungalow ✅ Desayuno el domingo ✅ Dinámicas de presencia y conciencia corporal ✅ Acompañamiento con 3 guías todo el fin de semana 🎒 **¿Qué necesitas llevar?** 🚴 Bicicleta de montaña o gravel 🥪 Comida ligera para el **sábado y domingo a mediodía** (bocadillos, tupper, barritas, frutas, snacks) 💧 Bidones o mochila para el agua **Sólo quedan 6 plazas.** Reserva la tuya y mira toda la información aquí: [https://bidexka.es/bidexka-ibaibi/](https://bidexka.es/bidexka-ibaibi/)

Inspirál Explorative Art and Movement Session
**​[Inspirál](https://www.instagram.com/inspiral_wav/) invites you to a 2-hour session to explore through art and movement in a safe and supportive environment, accompanied by a soundscape specially created for this session by [EYRA](https://www.instagram.com/per.eyra/), played through [Pischinger Sound](https://www.instagram.com/pischinger_sound/) for an extra immersive experience.** [Register your spot via this link. ](https://vivetix.com/en-US/entradas-inspiral-explorative-art-and-movement-session-ty5y/session?token=tekzk47ZMsz&utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGn9IL05YC0zjWrFx7B-3Fd_L7T3UPV0pdIOFSByhYneUZXU6Uf-MODpAogY8k_aem_oiqUF-DLmC2GdziO44tWCQ) **Come as you are and discover what unfolds when you give yourself space to create and move. No experience is needed. Only an openness to explore in a safe, supportive space with no pressure and no judgment.** Art therapist Helena guides a creative process focused on free exploration. Rather than working toward a specific result, the emphasis is on following what naturally emerges, and giving space to your own creative process. What you create remains part of your own experience, and there’s no need to share unless you wish to. ​Jetske, Master’s student in Dance Movement Therapy, guides the movement part of the session. Through guided and free movement you'll explore different ways of moving, deepen the connection with your body, and follow the impulses that arise in the moment. The focus is on honouring the needs and natural rhythm of your body through movmeent, while tuning into sensation in a safe and supportive space. **Location & Time** The session takes place at[ COMITTEÉ Studio](google.com/maps/place/COMITTE%C3%89/@41.3907372,2.1745004,15z/data=!3m1!5s0x12a498dd0c10dbf9:0xaf4fb3fc1b0f3112!4m6!3m5!1s0x12a499a8a7c72b65:0x5702c836604798b8!8m2!3d41.3602851!4d2.1135843!16s%2Fg%2F11kk7m5hfw?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDUxMC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) in Hospitalet. Doors open at 16:45, giving you time to arrive, settle into the space, and ease into the experience. The session begins at 17:00 sharp, and we kindly ask you to arrive on time, as the doors to the session space will close once we begin and late entry will not be possible. The session lasts two hours. Afterwards, there will be space to unwind, enjoy a cup of tea, and slowly transition into the evening.

Creative Art Workshop/ Taller creativo
Creative Art Workshop/ Taller creativo
*Please Always contact me by whats app to book your space at the workshop, thank you!* What we' ll do You don't need to be an artist to join my creative art workshop! I'll be waiting for you outside the MACBA (The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art). From there, we'll take a walk to CCCB (The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona), which has a café and co-working space. Once we get there, we'll ask for coffee/tea and get ready to embark on our creative journey! The art-making process will serve as a bridge for social and creative communication, and the theme will be centered around traveling and the things that make us vibrate. We'll start by using imagery, storytelling, and moving freely between drawing and writing to collage. We'll also work collaboratively, with each collaborator adding to a composition in sequence, allowing creativity to flow as we play. The main objective is self-expression, awakening creativity, having fun, and sharing a nice time together while colors and words come together to empower the artistic experience. I will guide you in the right direction to create something that you may have never thought of on your own, and you can take your own pace with art and bring it back home. The aim of this art workshop is to enhance your own creativity and self-expression. I will provide all the art materials, and the cost is 25 euros for a maximum of four people for a one-hour-long session. An individual session costs 40 euros. If you'd like to attend an creative art workshop please send me a message or call me to book your place. You can also arrange a different time that suits you better. Thank you very much!

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.

She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.
