Columbus Faceless AI Growth Blueprint
🎥 **AI Influencer Masterclass — No Face No Followers No Problem — AI-generated content that builds an audience.**
*Built for anyone who wants reach and income without their face online*
For anyone who wants social media growth and monetisation driven by AI not by personal celebrity, this session was designed to show how AI creates, posts, and grows a brand without you on camera. Using AI for every part of the content pipeline, you build a content brand AI can sustain while you do other things.
---
**What your session builds:**
- A content system that creates and posts on autopilot using AI automation
- How to build a brand that stays relevant without you refreshing the strategy daily
- A posting schedule managed by AI tools without your ongoing involvement
- AI tools for generating niche content that does not require your face or voice
**⚠️ Quick note:** Rsvping here does not hold your place at this session, so use the registration button below and finish the sign-up form to be locked in — registration closes once spots fill so act fast, and your spot is held only when you complete registration.

The faceless AI influencer model is one session away from being yours — register and turn your niche idea into a working faceless AI content business, as you walk out with something that works not just notes.
🎠*Your brand. Your rules. No face needed.*

Losing Weight in Columbus - Saturday morning Metro Park at Scioto Audubon Park
Join the weight loss in Columbus group at the Scioto Audubon Park for an in person meeting. We'll meet to chat casually, talk about goals and enjoy one of Columbus's wonderful parks.
We'll meet at one of the outdoor shelters, which is covered in case of rain, is close to some walking trails, and there's also a climbing gym that people can try out (my favorite past time) if people are interested.
Let's meet and see where we can take things!

Columbus From Guessing to Profiting — Polymarket
📌 **How to Win on Polymarket — Strategy and Systems — Stop guessing. Start winning.**
*Designed around a repeatable framework not market-specific advice*
If you have tried prediction markets and found your results too inconsistent to rely on, this session was designed to bridge exactly that gap with a repeatable method. With a systematic approach to identifying high-value markets, you produce a personal forecasting framework refined around consistent profit.
**⚠️ Do not skip this:** Your rsvp here is not a registration confirmation, so complete your registration via the link below to lock in your place — spaces are purposely limited so move fast, and your seat is only secure once registration is complete.

---
**Skills and strategies you gain:**
- How to read signals and information others are not pricing in yet
- How to evaluate market probabilities objectively rather than emotionally
- How to avoid the psychological traps that erode Polymarket profits
Stop guessing on Polymarket — start forecasting — grab your place and develop the forecasting system that produces real returns, and the output from this session is yours from day one.
📊 *Data beats gut feel. Learn the system.*

Stalker
Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending.
*Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

Monthly Meeting (TBD)
TOPIC (TBD):
Meeting Schedule:
1. 6:00 - Introduction, Meet New Members
2. 6:10 - Old Business
3. 6:20 - New Business
4. 6:30 - Pre-Shoot Briefing/Education
5. 7:15 - Break
6. 7:30 - Image Critique
7. 8:00 - Adjourn
Pre-Shoot Brief/Education:
NIK Collection 8
Image Critique:
Previous Photoshoot Images (iPhone images and Christmas Cards). If anyone has images they would like critiqued, please provide them at the beginning of the meeting.
Providing Images for Critique:
For now, I will collect images at the beginning of the meeting on a USB memory stick. My computer has USB-C ports, so a USB-C memory stick or one with dual (USB-C / USB-A) ports will be needed.
Images should follow these format rules:
JPG - 80% quality or higher
132 dpi resolution
2048 pixels across the long edge
Embedded colorspace - sRGB
The Completely Series
These meetings will be a building block approach to learning photographic mastery over three disciplines:
Mechanical Mastery (MM) - 13 weeks of the series
Exposure Mastery (EM) - 26 weeks of the series
Composition Mastery (CM) - A 52 week series
All three series will run concurrently and will dovetail as follows:
Q3/26 - MM (Iter 1), EM (Iter 1, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt1)
Q4/26 - MM (Iter 2), EM (Iter 1, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt2)
Q1/27 - MM (Iter 3), EM (Iter 2, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt3)
Q2/27 - MM (Iter 4), EM (Iter 2, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt4)
That's likely confusing, but essentially, MM offered 4 times in that period, EM offered 2 times, and CM offered 1 time.
**TO BE CLEAR - THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THESE CLASSES.**
This is an aggressive series, with presentations, homework, group shoots to be added in, likely at LEAST twice a month, image critiques, and an expectation that you are willing to put in the work to elevate your photography significantly. Open to all levels and all equipment levels. Don't let hesitation about your skillset and/or gear keep you from a one-time opportunity.
The group will meet every Monday, with periodic exceptions, and we will try to keep as close as possible to the original plan. Obviously, more data to come, and will be published as this is further developed, but now is the time to decide if you want to be a part of this.
Tribal Viewpoints (Ethiopia) - FEE BASED
**Itinerary And Pricing To Be Published Soon...**
Professionally guided photographic tour and workshop throughout the country of Ethiopia.
IxDA Chat n Pancakes
You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday.
But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to.
Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
(Cross-Posting) From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity
Do **NOT** sign up to this one and sign-up at https://www.meetup.com/columbusjs/events/313386504/
=======================================
A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture.
This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape.
Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds.
Food and drinks will be available.
**LOCATION:**
6515 Longshore Loop, Suite 300, Dublin, OH 43017
