La propuesta de est actividad es participar en una visita comentada a la exposición *Chez Matisse* que se celebra en CaixaForum.
La muestra presenta una amplia selección de obras procedentes en su mayoría del Centro Pompidou, donde las piezas de Matisse dialogan con las de otros artistas contemporáneos y pintores a los que el artista influyó.
La actividad tiene un costo de 9 euros, que incluyen la entrada de grupo a la exposición y la visita comentada.
Monday is Montjuic ! Time update 19h30
Let's back to run !
We will meet by the Magic Fountain (Font Magica de Montjuic ([https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2](https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2))) - Plaça de Carles Buïgas at the end of the first stairs - just 2 minutes walking from placa Espana towards Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
We'll decide the route on the day.. or just follow Olivier... ;)
We'll meet at 7:30pm but we'll start running at 7:35pm. Please be on time.
Normally we do about 8-10kms in an hour during which we climb to the castle at the top of Montjuic. The accumulated elevation is about 300m depending on the route.
Note that this is *NOT* a beginner's run. It can be quite challenging. We recommend that you only join this run if, on a flat course, you can do 10km in 50mins or less or really like running up hill! If not it might be better to first start with one of the beach runs on Tuesday or Thursday.
Starting from October it is getting dark pretty early and not all the streets of the route have lights. If you have a headlamp please bring it with you but it is not mandotory.
Let´s do the entire route together and after the training we can go as usual for a fresh drink at a bar nearby
De vuelta en el Montjuic !
Quedamos en la Plaça de Carles Buïgas (donde está la Font Magica de Montjuic), exactamente aquí ([https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2](https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2)), al lado de la barandilla que está al final de las primeras escaleras. Si vienes desde plaça Espanya, son 2 minutos caminando en dirección al Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
Cada lunes hacemos un recorrido distinto por Montjuic que decidimos en el mismo día… o sencillamente seguimos a Olivier… ;)
Nos encontramos a las 7:30, y empezamos a correr a las 7:35.
Normalmente hacemos más o menos 8-10 km en una hora, subiendo hasta el castillo en la cima de Montjuic, con un desnivel positivo total de cerca de 300 metros.
Es un entrenamiento exigente aunque accesible si ya tienes algo de experiencia corriendo. No está hecho para debutante. Por favor apúntate solo si puedes correr 10km en 50 minutos mas o menos.
De octubre a mayo el recorrido es de noche por lo que es recomendable llevar frontal, aunque si no tienes, no hace falta.
Realizamos todo el recorrido juntos y después del entreno solemos ir a tomar algo a un bar cercano.

El 23 de mayo nos reunimos para celebrar la segunda edición del Global Fabric Day Barcelona, una jornada gratuita dedicada en exclusiva a Microsoft Fabric. Dos salas en paralelo, ocho sesiones, mucho networking... y un elenco de ponentes de primer nivel.
El evento empieza a las **8:30h con el registro**. ¡Apunta estas horas!
**09:00 - 09:15**
Presentación del grupo Power BI & Fabric Barcelona y anuncio de los próximos eventos. El momento perfecto para llegar a tiempo y no perderte nada 😉
**09:15 - 10:05**
Sala Grande - **Fabric IQ: El fin del "depende de a quién preguntes"** (Laura Galea Montal, Augusto Bou) ¿Y si los agentes de IA pudieran entender tu negocio de verdad, no solo tus tablas? Laura y Augusto nos presentan Fabric IQ: la nueva capa semántica que conecta entidades reales (vuelos, clientes, activos) con datos en tiempo real, reglas de negocio y acciones automatizadas. Con demo incluida de operaciones de aerolínea. 🛫
Sala Pequeña - **Atreveix-te amb Microsoft Fabric: els teus primers passos** (Andreu Cabero) Andreu va fer el salt a Fabric fa uns mesos sense ser un perfil 100% tècnic, i ho explica sense embuts. Primera part: la seva experiència real i els recursos que l'han ajudat. Segona part: una introducció pràctica amb Lakehouses, Notebooks, Pipelines i models semàntics. Ideal si tens Fabric pendent des de fa temps.
**10:05 - 10:55**
Sala Grande - **OneLake Security: Centralized Data Security for Microsoft Fabric** (Thierry Houy) [en inglés] OneLake centraliza todos tus datos. Pero, ¿cómo los proteges? Thierry, Sr. Program Manager en Microsoft y miembro del equipo CAT de Fabric, nos explica cómo funciona OneLake Security, cómo configurarlo y qué limitaciones hay que conocer hoy.
Sala Pequeña - **Fabric y el Poder de las Vistas Materializadas: Menos procesamiento, más valor** (Kelly Peraza) SQL que se almacena como tabla Delta en el lago: consultas rápidas, sin reprocesamientos innecesarios.

Connecting the World: Scalable Geospatial Pipelines with GigaSpatial
Speaker: Utku Can Ozturk, Data Scientist and main developer of the Gigaspatial project
Geospatial data is critical for global development, but practitioners constantly battle fragmented data, scaling issues, and complex integrations across vector and raster formats. Enter GigaSpatial, an open-source Python library built by UNICEF’s Giga initiative to help connect every school in the world to the internet.
In this talk, we will explore the architecture behind GigaSpatial and how it replaces the need to stitch together a dozen different tools to answer a single spatial question. We will dive into how the library orchestrates data collection, transformation, and standardisation pipelines at scale. By leveraging strict configuration validation, object-oriented data connectors, and seamless multi-store management, GigaSpatial provides a unified API to wrangle spatial data. Finally, we’ll look at real-world applications across 30 countries, from validating point-of-interest data against multiple global building footprints to running zonal aggregations using different grid systems.
Whether you are a data engineer, a GIS professional, or a Python developer interested in open-source architecture, you might find this talk an interesting look into how we build robust spatial pipelines; and we would love to explore ways you can contribute to this global mission.

Python Meetup May
For this month's Meetup, we are partnering with **ERNI** to offer two sessions about: **Scaling Python Analysis with Apache Airflow** and **Stopping an Epidemic using the Atomica package**.
\-\-\-
Schedule:
* 18:30: Welcome
* ️ 18:45: Talks
* **&** 19:45: Networking, food and drinks!
* 21:00: Bye!
\-\-\-
* ➡️ **What:** From Scripts to Systems: Scaling Your Python Analysis with Apache Airflow
* **Who**: Marc Gonzalez Planas
* ⏱ **Duration**: 30 minutes
* **Language**: English
* **Abstract**: Data Analysts often face a "production wall" where local Python scripts struggle to meet the demands of a live environment. Moving from ad-hoc analysis to scalable data products requires a shift in focus toward governance, observability, and idempotency. Without proper orchestration, we can fail.
Let's learn how to bridge that gap by refactoring standard Python scripts into automated pipelines using Apache Airflow. We will explore the transition to an "orchestration" mindset, focusing on how to use Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) and the TaskFlow API to transform modular Python functions into a an automatic system.
\-\-\-\-
* ➡️ **What:** How to Stop an Epidemic using the Atomica Package
* **Who**: Eloisa Pérez Bennetts
* ⏱ **Duration**: 30 minutes
* **Language**: English
* **Abstract**: Infectious diseases are a major global health challenge, claiming over 13 million lives each year. Despite the availability of interventions – such as vaccination, testing and treatment – determining the most effective strategy can be challenging, as this depends on complex factors like outbreak severity, funding limitations and sociopolitical influences. Computational modelling offers a powerful tool to assess the potential outcomes of different public health responses, but the difficulty of building fit-for-purpose epidemiological models from scratch is a barrier to widespread use.
Atomica, a Python-based open source simulation engine, addresses this challenge by simplifying the development of epidemiological models. It allows users to create highly configurable data-driven simulations that incorporate disease transmission, intervention strategies and budget constraints. With its user-friendly design and robust capabilities, Atomica allows us to forecast the potential consequences of public health strategies in specific settings. This insight enables policymakers and health organisations to make evidence-based choices, ultimately improving intervention effectiveness and saving lives.

**URBAN SKETCHING**
Es la práctica de dibujar aquello que te rodea. Consiste en plasmar tu **visión personal** de tu mundo inmediato, o de los lugares a los que viajas. Es una narrativa de la vida cotidiana: ese café que te motiva, las calles o parques que recorres y te inspiran, etc.
Boceta sin miedo a equivocarte, salte de lo figurativo y lo realista para experimentar el estilo con el que mejor te lo pases.
**Vente a experimentar!**

OBJECTIVE
🎭🌿 Be inspired by the bohemian oasis of the Antic Teatre, a hidden haven in the heart of Barcelona.
Its bucolic terrace bar, embraced by an immense fig tree and surrounded by balconies steeped in history, is the perfect setting to awaken creativity outdoors.
🪴🏛️ We'll focus on landscaped courtyards: we'll work on spatial composition, the overlapping of planes, the integration of plants, and the detail of plant textures.
🎋 The organic forms of the plants and the architectural boundaries will interact on paper, and we'll learn to play with light and shadow to capture the intimate and enveloping atmosphere of these special corners.
🎨 I'll provide all the materials and guide you through the process of creating whatever you choose, helping you develop your own style.
🤯 Break free from the "I can't draw or paint well" mindset with a method that stimulates your creativity.
🧘♀️ Use art as a tool for meditation and art therapy, connecting with your surroundings and yourself.
🙋♀️ Meet future friends with similar passions and learn from their diverse styles and perspectives.
PLAN
👥 We'll be a small group of 6 to 10 people to foster better interaction.
👋 Initial activity to get to know each other and explore approaches, materials, and references.
✏️ Exercise phase with quick sketches where everyone draws the same thing to learn new techniques and experiment with different combinations.
🎨 Individual artwork phase where everyone chooses what to do.
💬 Final activity for reflection, learning, and sharing.
🎁 Take home my audiovisual report of the experience and the artwork you created.

URBAN SKETCHING
It's the practice of drawing what surrounds you. It consists of capturing your personal vision of your immediate world, or the places you travel to. It's a narrative of everyday life: that coffee shop that motivates you, the streets or parks you walk through that inspire you, etc.
Sketch without fear of making mistakes, move beyond figurative and realistic styles to experiment with the style you enjoy the most.

Building Scalable Customer Identity Resolution Pipelines on AWS Using AI
Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs.
This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context.
We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing.

Best Practices for Building a Reliable Lakehouse
**Abstract:** This is a practical playbook for building a production-grade data lakehouse. It walks through foundational principles — naming conventions, least-privilege access, automated CI/CD testing — before diving into medallion architecture. Furthermore, metadata-driven design patterns show how configuration tables and dynamic notebook orchestration eliminates hard-coded pipelines. The deck covers star schema modeling, guidance on choosing between Spark, Pandas, and SQL, and data quality enforcement using DQX with YAML data contracts. Finally, we dive into security best practices and performance optimizations.
**Host:** Justin Shea, Mehdi Jeddi, Erik Pak, and Sou-Cheng Choi
**Talk Format:** This is a hybrid event. To attend online, join us on Zoom here at 6pm:

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
TBD
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
