Cricut

Communicative, collaborative and creative drawing sessions. Participants draw a central still-life that the group can create themselves until the music track finishes and then pass it to the person on their left. The drawings change hands 3 to 5 times and the end results are always inspiring. After the collaborative warm-up participants can work individually on printing techniques, Mono -printing, tetra-pack or gelli. -printing. Feel free to try out a process that you are unfamiliar with. There will always be somebody to offer advice if necessary Bring A4 paper, and favourite materials, pencils & brushes. You can also use some studio materials in exchange for a small contribution. A fun but informative approach with consistently creative results!

In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.

PRINT / OBJECT by Atelier Māya This print exploration is a relaxed and social textile print session designed to help you slow down, explore, and create something uniquely yours. In this 2-hour workshop at Atelier Māya, you’ll be guided through a simple and enjoyable process: our unique flow test print session leading to a final textile piece. You’ll start by experimenting with our print tools, colour, and mark-making. In the Print Thinking process, you will get a feel for the materials without pressure. You will explore before creating your own composition. The session is intuitive and open. There’s no right or wrong way to work, and no expectation to be “creative” or experienced. Many participants are surprised by how quickly they settle into the process, letting go of perfection and simply enjoying the act of making. We’ll introduce you to Māya’s unique application tools and hand-mixed, eco-friendly studio inks, and support you throughout as you build your final piece. A variety of organic and cotton textile surfaces will be available, including the Māya Travel Pouch and Māya Maxi Tote. You’re also very welcome to bring your own light coloured, natural fibre textiles to experiment on. This is a calm, welcoming space to switch off, experience an analogue textile research atelier and try something new. You will spend a few hours creating in good company. No experience needed, come as you are. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

**\>\>\> Registration takes place on Luma: [https://luma.com/yp90isjd](https://luma.com/yp90isjd)** \*\*\* ## **Welcome to KREATIV UNTAPPED #1 Storytelling Untapped w/ Ben Sauer** ## **A hands-on session. No slides. Just your stories.** We couldn't be more excited to tap into this with you at **[Thoughtworks Berlin](https://www.thoughtworks.com/en-de/about-us/locations/berlin)**. Follow us on [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/kreativ-untapped) and [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/kreativuntapped) *** **KREATIV UNTAPPED** is a creative playground born in Berlin – and we're kicking off with the discipline that sits at the heart of every other one: **storytelling.** Because here's what AI can't replace: the human desire to create. Creativity is what makes us uniquely human — it's a muscle, and like any muscle, it needs training. Most of us have stopped. **KREATIV UNTAPPED** is where we change that — through hands-on sessions with working practitioners across visual arts, tactile crafts, narrative & sound, and spatial & performative disciplines. **This evening** is about words, voice, and presence. In a world full of decks, dashboards and screens, we've forgotten how to just… tell a story. This evening is a practice in putting the slides away and using the oldest tools we have — your voice, your hands, your story. **Expect a short provocation from Ben, a hands-on session with a sketching element to flex that creative muscle, a round of group sharing, and time to actually meet the people in the room.** **Who's this for?** Anyone with a story to tell — and the willingness to tell it without a slide deck. No job title. No prior experience. Just the willingness to tap in. *Creativity untapped. Connection for real.* *** **About [Ben Sauer](https://bensauer.net)** Ben Sauer is a speaker, author, and coach who teaches the art of strategic storytelling — and the perfect person to launch this series. He's the author of **Death by Screens: How to Present High-Stakes Digital Design Work and Live to Tell the Tale** — a go-to resource for designers, product people and creatives who want to stop boring their audiences and actually be heard. Ben spent years as a UX designer at Clearleft (one of the first UX agencies in the world, working with the BBC, Penguin Random House and Tesco), then as Director of Product for AI at Babylon Health, leading a team of 100 on products worth $100m+. He has trained teams at NASA, Amazon, and the BBC, and spoken at The Economist, NEXT Conference, UX London, VW + Audi and dozens more — frequently as the audience's top-rated speaker. His background doesn't fit neatly in a single box: comedy, software, English literature. Which is exactly why he's so good at this. *** **Agenda** * **18:30 – 19:00** · Check-in * **19:00 – 19:15** · Intro – what KREATIV UNTAPPED is and why we're here * **19:15 – 20:15** · Hands-on storytelling session with Ben Sauer – including a sketching element to support your storytelling and flex that creative muscle * **20:15 – 20:45** · Group sharing round – share your story, your sketch, your takeaway * **20:45 – 20:50** · Wrap-up & what's next * **20:50 – 21:30** · Networking *** **Donation-based event** This first edition is donation-based — give what feels right. Your contribution supports building KREATIV UNTAPPED into something lasting. **Please note:** if you can't make it on the day, or decide to cancel, donations are non-refundable. By booking, you're not just paying for a seat — you're backing the spirit of what we're building. Thank you for that. *** **A heads-up on photos & video** We'll be taking photos and potentially videos throughout the evening to capture the spirit of the session and share what KREATIV UNTAPPED is all about. By attending, you agree that visual material featuring you may be used for promotional purposes — on our social channels, website, newsletter, and future event communications. If you'd prefer not to be photographed or filmed, just let us know on arrival and we'll make sure to keep you out of the frame. *** **Where** 📍 **Thoughtworks Berlin** Revaler Str. 31 (Event Space), 10245 Berlin (2 minutes from Ostkreuz) *** See you there. ***Creativity untapped.
