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 13 de abril ⏰ De 9:30h a 14:30 h 💸 Precio: 80 € (materiales incluidos) 📩 Inscripciones: hola@laclandestinadepoblenou.org

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

This is not a typical ceramics class. This is a small, intimate space designed to help you slow down, disconnect from daily noise and reconnect with yourself through a simple, hands-on experience. In a city that moves fast, this group offers a different kind of plan: creating with your hands, sharing a glass of wine, and enjoying a calm, screen-free moment. All workshops are held in very small groups (max. 4 people) to keep the atmosphere personal and relaxed. No previous experience is needed. What to expect: • A guided ceramics experience focused on the process, not perfection • A cozy and calm environment • Wine or non-alcoholic drinks • Time to disconnect, without pressure or distractions You will also be able to keep your piece after it’s fired, as a reminder of the experience. This group is for you if you’re looking for: • A creative break from routine • A mindful, slow activity • A different way to meet people or spend time alone Spots are always limited to keep the experience intimate.

Join us for a tour of Brothers Drake Meadery in Grandview, hosted by the owner Oron Benary. He will explain the mead-making process and offer us generous samples of their fine meads. Mead is basically wine that is made from honey instead of grapes. There are many different flavors that range from dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, to sweet. They are best known for their Apple Pie Mead. Oron has offered us a special price of 5.00 each person for the tour and tasting, which is normally 25.00 per person. I've taken the tour several times, and it's always enlightening and fun. Rebecca will bring a tea that will pair well with the mead for a tea tasting afterwards. Park anywhere around the building. Please avoid parking in front of the houses in the neighborhood behind the Meadery. Please keep your RSVP current. Knowing how many will attend will help Brothers Drake plan accordingly to accommodate us.

**Let’s catch up and take an afternoon break.** **Grab a coffee or snack and let’s chit chat! Gayle and I will bring adult coloring books and/or a simple craft if you’d like to unwind and relax.😊**
