The thinkers, the builders, the ones who care deeply about how technology is made and why it matters. Over the years, our community has grown – but we’ve missed the magic that only happens when you’re in the same room, sharing ideas, swapping stories, and sparking conversations that no Slack channel can replicate. So we decided: it’s time to bring our meetups back. **About SAP in Berlin** Located in the heart of European innovation, [SAP in Berlin](https://www.sap.com/germany/about/berlin.html "https://www.sap.com/germany/about/berlin.html") combines the power of a global company with the strength of a unique local ecosystem – we attract talent, shape SAP‘s image as a front-runner of innovation, and foster our position as market leader for enterprise application software in Berlin.

**(Event in German) Bitte beachtet, dass wir auf verschiedenen Wegen einladen, es werden also mehr Menschen teilnehmen, als ihr hier seht.** In unserem neuen Format „Help me think about this“, reden wir mit Forscher\*innen, Autor\*innen und anderen Kreativen über das Werk, an dem sie gerade arbeiten. So bekommen wir spannende Einblicke in ihre Arbeit, und sie erhalten zusätzliche Perspektiven und Impulse aus unserer Diskussion. ***Worum geht’s?*** Linda Ngono ist Psychologin und Psychotherapeutin in Ausbildung und arbeitet gerade an zwei Buchprojekten: An einem belletristischen Buch (für das sie das Arbeitsstipendium deutschsprachige Literatur 2026 erhalten hat) und an einem Sachbuch, über das wir in diesem Event sprechen wollen. Darin schreibt sie über die Frage, wie wir mit Anteilen in uns umgehen, die wir selbst problematisch finden, insbesondere wenn wir uns bei menschenfeindlichen und rassistischen Gedanken erwischen. In unserer Diskussion tauchen wir in Lindas Thesen ein und denken gemeinsam über zentrale Fragen nach: * Wie gehen wir mit Gedanken um, die nicht in unser Selbstbild passen? * Ist es wichtig, problematische Gedanken öffentlich zu besprechen, oder gibt es gute Gründe, bestimmte Dinge nur mit uns selbst auszuhandeln? * Erlaubt uns ein anderer Umgang mit unseren eigenen unliebsamen Anteilen, einen anderen Umgang mit gesellschaftlichen Problemen? * und viele mehr … Die Diskussion wird wie immer mit unseren experimentellen Methoden moderiert, die uns erlauben, das Gespräch fokussierter, entspannter und inspirierender zu gestalten. **FAQs** ***Was kann ich von dem Event erwarten?*** Jede Veranstaltung ist ein Experiment, daher ist es schwierig, genau vorherzusagen, wie sie verlaufen oder sich anfühlen wird. Wir versuchen in jedem Event eine entspannte und anregende Atmosphäre zu schaffen, in der wir verschiedene Aspekte und Perspektiven des Themas gemeinsam erkunden. Zu Beginn der Diskussion werden wir spezielle Spielregeln einführen, die das Gespräch langsamer, aber auch fokussierter und klarer machen sollen. ***Für wen ist dieses Event gedacht?*** Diese Veranstaltung richtet sich an alle, die sich für das Thema und/oder das Konzept interessieren. Wir möchten einen Raum schaffen, in dem sich Menschen jeden Alters, jeder Identität und jeder Herkunft willkommen fühlen. Du musst nichts vorbereiten, keine starke Meinung haben und auch nicht extrovertiert sein, um teilzunehmen. ***Muss ich aktiv mitdiskutieren, oder kann ich auch nur zuhören?*** Es ist völlig in Ordnung, nur zuzuhören. Du kannst jederzeit selbst entscheiden, wie aktiv du sein möchtest, und wirst, abgesehen von einer kurzen Namensrunde, nicht aufgefordert, etwas zu sagen. Möglicherweise gibt es jedoch Kleingruppen-Phasen, d. h. kurze Abschnitte, in denen alle Teilnehmer\*innen in Gruppen von 2-3 Personen diskutieren. Du musst daran nicht teilnehmen, sondern kannst die Zeit stattdessen für eine Pause nutzen. ***Wie lange dauert die Veranstaltung?*** *Die Veranstaltung dauert zwischen 1,5 und 2 Stunden. Danach gibt es noch die Möglichkeit, sich bei Snacks auszutauschen.* ***Ist der Veranstaltungsort rollstuhlgerecht?*** Die Veranstaltung ist mit dem Rollstuhl zugänglich, aber es gibt leider keine rollstuhlgerechten Toiletten. ***Was ist das "Diskussions Experiment"?*** Das Diskussionsexperiment ist eine Veranstaltungsreihe, in deren Rahmen wir kontinuierlich Methoden testen, die sinnvolle und inspirierende Gruppengespräche ermöglichen. Unter anderem experimentieren wir mit Techniken, die Diskussionen verlangsamen, Klarheit fördern und die Teilnehmer dabei unterstützen, besser Gehör zu finden. Weitere Informationen findest du auf unserer Website. Dieses Projekt wird von Maria Scholze und Igor Don organisiert.

Yes it’s free. But please come only if you are ready. The 22-Strand DNA Activation Used For 3,000 Years To Awaken Human Potential For the first time a high level Initiate reveals the 3.034 year old method to awaken human potential.. this method is available to the public since 1997 and starts reaching the masses now! Humanity is ready! Before that date people like Da Vinci, Tesla, Michelangelo, Pythagoras, Goethe, Beethoven and many more received the private opportunity to study these secrets. There is a moment in every seeker's life when reading stops being enough. You've done the books. The podcasts. The meditation apps. The therapy. Maybe even plant medicine, breathwork, yoga teacher trainings, retreats in distant countries. And still — somewhere quiet inside you — that voice keeps whispering: "There has to be more." There is. For 3,000 years, an unbroken lineage of teachers — traceable back to King Salomon the Wise — has guarded a precise energetic transmission known as the Life Activation. A 22-strand DNA activation that awakens dormant aspects of your divine blueprint. The same activation that has changed the lives of thousands of people across more than 50 countries. On Thursday, in the heart of Berlin, I'm opening the doors for a free 2-hour evening to share what this path is — and what it has done for me. --- What You'll Discover — What the Life Activation actually is (and why every Mystery School student receives it first) — The lineage behind it — King Salomon, 3,000 years, 7 Mystery Schools worldwide — How it works with your chakras, magnetic energy, etheric body, and elemental forces — What people consistently report afterwards: clarity, vitality, release of inherited patterns, deep peace — Why it bypasses the mind entirely — no belief required, no understanding needed — Where this path can take you — Sacred Geometry, Kabbalah, Initiation, Healers Academy — Live Q&A — ask anything --- Who This Is For You belong in this room if you: → Feel stuck despite trying everything — therapy, self-help, coaching, retreats → Sense that there is more to life but cannot quite reach it → Are walking through a major transition — career, relationship, identity, crisis → Want to begin a real spiritual path — not just read about one → Feel drawn to ancient wisdom and lineage-based traditions → Are ready for change. Real change. Not more information. You also belong here if you have zero spiritual background. You don't need to believe in anything. You just need to show up. --- What This Is Not Not a sales pitch dressed as a talk. Not a "manifestation" workshop. Not therapy. Not channeling. Not New Age improvisation. This is ancient lineage work — the same teachings, transmitted the same way, for three millennia. --- Your Host I'm Paul Schulz — Ritual Master in the King Salomon Lineage of the Modern Mystery School, based in Berlin, teaching in English across Europe. I received my own Life Activation in this city, and it changed everything. Now I share this work with seekers ready for the next step. --- The Details 📍 Berlin — see above 🗓 every second Thursday 💶 FREE (limited seats — registration required) 🎙 Language: English 🎁 Bonus: open Q&A --- Reserve Your Seat The question is not whether you have time. The question is whether you can afford to keep living the way you have been living.

An opening of an art exhibition is a nice occasion to catch up and hang out. No agenda, just art, wine and chat. *** KIT Berlin ([@kitstudioartspace](https://www.instagram.com/kitstudioartspace)) invites you to an exhibition of paintings by Wiola Stankiewicz [@wiola_stankiewicz](https://www.instagram.com/wiola_stankiewicz/) “Now it Makes Sense, Isn’t It?” and a musical performance by Antonio Bastos [@antonio__bastos](https://www.instagram.com/antonio__bastos/) Now It Makes Sense, Isn’t It? continues the “Emotional Algorithm” project — a series of paintings built from intuitively selected screenshots, private photographs, and images found online. The images are combined like an emotional bajaderka (a Polish layered dessert traditionally made from mixed leftovers, fragments, and combined remains) — sometimes through color, contrast, or an unexplainable feeling that they simply belong together. The works explore screen aesthetics and digital ways of perceiving images. Meaning often appears only later. And sometimes not at all. Wiola Stankiewicz is a visual artist born in Elbląg, Poland, currently living and working in Coimbra, Portugal. Her practice focuses on painting, collage, and assemblage, using mixed media techniques and experimental material processes. Working with icons of popular culture, landscapes, found images, and photographs from her personal archive, Stankiewicz builds a coherent and autonomous visual language based on intuition and process. Her works function as images of an open character, in which meaning emerges from the relationships between image, material, and gesture. Antonio Bastos turns vulnerability into stage, community into sound and instinct into creation. From electronics to tradition, from improvised lyrics to shared movement, his music is born live and unfolds into a visual, emotional experience. With dozens of releases and festival shows, he was awarded People’s Choice at the IPMA (USA), blending performance with community creation — involving choirs, schools and local groups of all ages. Each concert is a seed sown in the territory, where the audience also becomes creator.

I have been studying the question of "self" online with Prof. Ellie Anderson and so I thought a prompt on the "self" might be interesting. Full confession: I had Claude create this prompt and I like it, so here goes: Imagine a thought experiment that merges two classic puzzles: > You undergo a procedure, performed neuron by neuron, in which every biological component of your brain is replaced with a functionally identical synthetic substitute. At each step, your behavior, memories, and personality remain unchanged. When the last neuron is swapped, is the consciousness experiencing the world still you? And — more pressingly — was there ever a continuous "you" to begin with? ### Questions to Wrestle With * If consciousness is purely physical, does the *gradual* nature of the replacement matter, or is it equivalent to being destroyed and rebuilt? * Could there be a "self" without continuity of experience — even moment to moment, while you sleep? On a more practical level, consider the simpler case first: **hemispherectomy** patients — people who have had an entire cerebral hemisphere surgically removed — often retain a strong sense of personal identity and continuity. This suggests "you" are not rigidly tied to specific physical material. But does that vindicate the synthetic neuron case, or merely show that identity is more *flexible* than we thought — not that it can survive *complete* substrate replacement? I used Claude so I could get this out today and let everyone have some time to consider it. Hope to see you at the Oracle. Sorry about the location change two weeks ago. That's what I get for trusting local weather predictions!

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

**How does a TennisColumbus Season / League run?** The league advertises the season dates and builds a queue of committed players for the season. **Kickoff Day - June 10th** The start day of the season, players are sent a kickoff email that contains important information about the league, the link where your league standings and players contact information. We guarantee 6 playing partners at your playing level, but have been averaging closer to 15+ partners in most cities. The number of different levels we run is solely based upon the number of players enrolled for the league kickoff. Typically we are running a Skilled-3.0, Competitive-3.5 and Advanced-4.0 in most cities. **Your Task - "Flexible Scheduling"** After this kickoff email is sent, it is the **player's task to communicate with other players**. Players should work with their partners to find an agreeable time and location to play the match. While TennisColumbus doesn't mandate your playing schedule, it is recommended that players schedule at least one match per week. By request of the players, we started to allow players to play 1 rematch per season. The regular season is all about playing as much as you can. As of Feb. 10, 2026 we've had an amazing 2,017 players play more than [20 matches in a season](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/info/MatchesInSeason). **Where to Play?** Play at your local free tennis courts, tennis parks, condo courts or tennis clubs. The league strongly suggests that players jointly try to pick a tennis court location convenient to both. We provide an extensive list of [tennis courts](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/TennisCourts), including # of courts, lighting, hitting walls, etc. We strive to keep this list up-to-date. TennisColumbus sets up a must play dates to push players out on the courts. The final deadline is the date marking the end of the season, at which point players with 3-5 wins (Actually total is specified on the division page) will qualify for a post-season playoff to determine the league champion. **How to Play?** Players can use three mostly standard playing formats: 2 out of 3 sets, 2 sets with 10 point super tie-breaker or the 10-game pro set (First to 10, used when court time is limited). On Feb. 2018, we added Fast Tennis 4 game pro set format as a valid format. **Playoffs** Each season concludes with a playoffs where players with anywhere from 3 to 5 season wins qualifies for a single elimination tourney. The champion is awarded based upon the league [Prize Pool](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/info/prize_pool3). Each singles league champion also receives a playing entry into one of two national championships we run. **[JOIN TODAY](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/join)** Full price is $39.95 to play in a season. The earlier you sign up we typically offer discounts during these tough economic times. Just go to the [Join Page](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/join) and complete the short form.
