**Alphaville** **Meet** in IFI Foyer 6.10 pm, film 6.20 pm. **Booking**: https://ifi.ie/film/jean-luc-godard-alphaville/ **NB:** If you are trying to locate the Meet Up in the IFI: My mobile number is 087 4179505, please call or text as a post here might not be noticed at that stage. I've booked Seat **H7.** **Alphaville** One of Godard’s most inventive movies, Alphaville blends sci-fi and film noir to winning effect. Godard shot the film on location in Paris, which Raoul Coutard turns into an icily dehumanised city of the future. Hollywood B-movie icon Eddie Constantine plays Lemmy Caution, a secret agent sent to overthrow the rule of Professor Von Braun, inventor of the Alpha-60 computer. En route, Lemmy meets the professor’s daughter (Anna Karina, of course), who is incapable of loving. Godard has fun playing with genre conventions while continuing his life-long exploration of the relationship between sound and image, love and society. **Director: *Jean-Luc Godard*** **99 mins, France, 1965, Digital, Black and White, Subtitled**

TOG will be open on Tuesday evenings from 19:00 to 21:30 for a general Open House event. Expect to find members and visitors in the space up to all sorts of activities. It's a great time to drop in and see what the space is about. If you're an artist, tinkerer, maker or just plain curious, come in and see what the space is about. Maybe you already have something to work on (or want to), have something to fix, create, design, bodge or tinker... drop in. We're also open for just for plain old social chat and hang out, with plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits. We have lots of free parking right outside our door.

This event has a different topic each time and includes a variety of interactive exercises. It's an engaging and creative way to express ourselves, and connect with how others think, feel and deal with life. We will aim to provide a supportive and sate environment and open up about our lives freely. A lot of times we don't talk about what we are really going through because we are worried of what people might think of us. This causes us to bottle things up, feel disconnected with the people around us or feel ashamed of ourselves. Anything you share in the session is confidential and shall not be disclosed outside of the room. Please only RSVP if you intend to come and change your RSVP to 'No' if you are not going to be able to attend. • **PRICE:** 5 € to cover the room (Revolut/Cash/ Paypal). Please pay the fee after the workshop. • **TIME:** We will start at 19:25 and finish at 20:55. Please be on time, to respect other members in the group. • **VENUE:** We are meeting at the Abbey Presbyterian Church - Parnell Square N, Rotunda, Dublin 1 (entrance on the side of Frederick St.). The room is on the first floor, at the back on your left. • **NOTE:** Even though the event is held in a religious institution, the group and the event are entirely secular and the exercises are by no means related to spirituality or religion.

**Free meetups for Rebels of all kinds, since 2013.** Casual networking events with occasional fireside chats from founders, creators and successful business owners. No formal agenda, or dress-code (please wear something though). Drinks sold at the bar. This event is free thanks to our partners, volunteer hosts and our generous hosting venue. **More than just meetups...** Rebellious Co provides everything entrepreneurs & business leaders need on their journey through an ecosystem of services. Primarily accessible via our membership, you can access a global community with game-changing benefits plus partnered services to help you start & grow your business from zero to one and beyond. \>\> [More on benefits & joining here](https://www.rebelliousco.org/membership/) << **What you will get** • Meet other founders, builders and creatives in Dublin • Hear honest stories from people actually doing the work • Learn how to grow sustainably, not just fast • Walk away with clarity, not overwhelm • Make connections that go beyond business cards **Speakers** ***Andrew Casey*** **Co-Founder of Headcase** Andrew Casey is the co-founder of Headcase, the creative communications agency he started with his childhood best friend over 16 years ago.

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? 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: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
