Liebe Freunde des gesprochenen Wortes, Ob es darum geht, ein Meeting zu leiten oder im Familienkreis einen Toast auszusprechen – diese Situation vor Menschen zu stehen und etwas zu vermitteln kennt so gut wie jeder. Wir lernen gemeinsam, dabei gelassen und souverän zu bleiben, wertvolle Informationen zu transportieren und unser Publikum zu begeistern. **Was macht unseren Club besonders?** Unser "Mut und Rede" Club trägt nicht umsonst seinen Titel: wir pflegen einen wertschätzenden Umgang miteinander, sodass die Hemmschwelle möglichst gering ist, sich selbst auf die Bühne zu trauen. **Wie läuft so ein Clubabend ab?** Es warten vorbereitete Reden auf euch, aber auch ihr habt die Möglichkeit in geschütztem Raum eine spontan improvisierte freie Rede von 1 bis 2 min vor Publikum zu halten. Das klingt vielleicht im ersten Moment etwas abschreckend – aber es ist eine ganz tolle Erfahrung über sich selbst hinauszuwachsen. Und egal was passiert, ihr werdet immer für Euren Mut belohnt. Und es wird auch immer geklatscht. Wir freuen uns, Euch kennenzulernen! Hier findest du die genaue Wegbeschreibung: www.mut-und-rede.de/kontakt#anfahrt Um besser planen zu können freuen wir uns über vorherige Anmeldung: kontakt@mut-und-rede.de https://www.mut-und-rede.de Es findet grundsätzlich jeder Clubabend statt, auch wenn laut meetup nur wenige Teilnehmer zugesagt haben.

## **Architekturfotografie Workshop – Architektur mit der Kamera neu entdecken** Der *Architekturfotografie Workshop* zeigt dir, wie Du Gebäude und Bauwerke eindrucksvoll in Szene setzen kannst. Du lernst, Innen- und Außenaufnahmen bewusst zu gestalten, architektonische Details fotografisch zu interpretieren und Deine persönliche Bildsprache zu entwickeln. Architekturfotografie ist weit mehr als reine Dokumentation – sie verbindet Technik, Kreativität und ein geschultes Auge für Formen, Linien und Perspektiven. Im Workshop nutzen wir die Architekturfotografie als Medium des forschenden Sehens. Das bedeutet: Du arbeitest sowohl intuitiv-künstlerisch als auch mit klaren fotografischen Entscheidungen. Ziel ist es, dreidimensionale Architektur in ausdrucksstarke zweidimensionale Bilder zu übersetzen, die Atmosphäre, Proportionen und Strukturen einer Bauweise sichtbar machen. Nach einer fundierten theoretischen Einführung setzen wir die Grundlagen sofort in die Praxis um. Auf einer Exkursion fotografierst Du frei nach eigenem Konzept und erhältst gezielte Aufgaben, um neue Techniken zu erlernen. Dadurch entwickelst Du Sicherheit im Umgang mit Perspektive, Belichtung, Bildausschnitt und Komposition. Die entstandenen Fotos und Bildserien werden im Kurs gemeinsam besprochen, sodass Du wertvolles Feedback erhältst und deine fotografischen Fähigkeiten gezielt verbessern kannst. **Ablauf des Architekturfotografie Workshops:** * **Tag 1:** Theorie – Einführung in die Architekturfotografie, Grundlagen und Technikvermittlung im Lette Verein. Praxis – erste Fotoübungen in Schöneberg. * **Tag 2:** Exkursion – vielfältige Innen- und Außenaufnahmen, gezielte Übungen zur Architektur- und Detailfotografie. * **Tag 3:** Theorie – Präsentation und Analyse der bearbeiteten und unbearbeiteten Fotos mit Fokus auf Konzeption, Serien, Bildausschnitte und Präsentation. Praxis – gemeinsames Fotografieren im Lette Verein. Der Workshop richtet sich an Fotografie-Einsteiger:innen ebenso wie an Fortgeschrittene, die ihre Kenntnisse in der Architekturfotografie vertiefen möchten. Ob für künstlerische Projekte, berufliche Anwendungen oder als neue kreative Ausdrucksform – dieser Kurs vermittelt Dir alle Grundlagen, um Architektur bewusst wahrzunehmen und fotografisch festzuhalten. **Lerne, Architektur mit neuen Augen zu sehen – und sie mit der Kamera ausdrucksstark einzufangen.** Bitte bringt eine Kamera mit und optional zur Exkursion ein Stativ. Bildungsurlaub: Dieser Kurs ist gemäß § 10 Absatz 1 Satz 3 Berliner Bildungszeitgesetz vom 05.07.2021 als Veranstaltung der beruflichen Weiterbildung anerkannt. ### Kursinformation Anmeldung: https://lette-akademie.de/kurse/architekturfotografie/ Termine: Mo., 02.

Calling out to all computation design mavericks for an introductory meetup. Let's meet over coffee and share our journeys, experiences and aspirations!! Looking forward to meeting new group members..

On the 3rd February we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup where **Svein Berge** will be giving a talk on ambisonics and **Christoph Schied** will be showing [Stracker](https://bleep.toys/stracker/). See below! As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome! Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15. Please note: Attendance is **strictly limited** to people who have RSVP'd Talk details: **The principles of ambisonics** \- Svein Berge More talk details to follow shortly Svein Berge has a master's degree in electronics and acoustics from NTNU in Norway and a Diplôme d’Etudes Approfondies in lasers and atomic physics from Université Paris 6. He has worked as a software developer in the telecoms industry since the 90s and as an individual developer in the field of ambisonics since about 2009, where he created the Harpex decoder and Spacemic ambisonic microphone array among other things. He has been based in Berlin since 2011, where he runs the company Harpex Audio GmbH. **Writing a modern tracker, how hard can it be?** \- Christoph Schied When I started Shield Tracker as a spare-time project in December 2023, I was frustrated by existing hardware and software sequencers. I kept wondering, how hard can it really be, and with little background in audio programming I decided to find out. The project escalated quickly, now sitting at over 45k handwritten lines of code, including a custom UI framework driven by a domain-specific-language, a built-in programmable fantasy CPU, various synth engines, effects, cross platform compatibility, and many more features. After a brief demonstration of the tracker I will talk about my techniques for achieving a high development speed and maintaining the momentum. With this talk I hope to inspire attendees to build things from scratch and go onto their own explorative coding journeys. Christoph Schied established himself as a live experimental electronic music performer in the Seattle underground music scene under the moniker "Herr Shield". In his live performances he uses a hybrid hardware setup with his custom-written tracker. He has over a decade of experience as a professional graphics researcher and developer.

For 2026, we are starting a new series of EventStorming deep dives. These will be like coding katas, except there's no coding, only sticky notes. In each of these sessions, we will explore a nuance of the EventStorming technique that we don't normally have time to go into during a more general workshop. What are we exploring this time? You'll have to show up to find out. As always, everyone is welcome. You don't need to be a software engineer to participate. In fact, it would be great to have more people who aren't software engineers. We're here to solve problems cross-functionally, not get into implementation details. As long as you care passionately about getting things right, then you belong here! This is a hands-on workshop. Be prepared to participate fully and add to the energy of the room. Looking forward to seeing you there!

**This is 100% non-profit. The 15€ sign up fee for everyone is only to minimize last-minute cancellations. The total sum goes to a bar-tap that everyone can use to order drinks until the amount is used up. ‼️NO REFUNDS‼️** **‼️Please don't just show up without RSVPing here and paying the 15€. We have a separate room that has limited capacity and a specific drinks agreement with the bar - so splitting up the bill won't become a mess.‼️** **Small update on how your money get's used from May 2024 onwards:** As of this month, meetup.com has started charging me 34€ instead of 16€ per month. I've decided to distribute this fee evenly among all us participants every month. Example: In the last 12 meetups, the average number of attendees was 17. With 17 attendees I would effectively collect 230€ (after fees). I would now substract 34€ leaving us with 196€ that go to the bar. 15% get's tipped to the wait staff, in this case 30€, leaving us with 166€ effectively to order drinks. Hope everyone is cool with this system. :) Website: https://www.pberg-engineers.me WhatsApp groups: Please come and join us on WhatsApp! \- "PBerg Engineers \- NEWS" \- Only organizers can post announcements or polls \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/EqMJMmlCZO6LOOfAoG4yTj \- "PBerg Engineers \- DISCUSS" \- Everyone can post \-\> https://chat\.whatsapp\.com/LPuo76J83gF6IZMLUcM4u2 Please join those groups now if you're interested. :) All skill/education-levels welcome! :) Lightning Talks: \- TBD We'll also have a brief "Jobs: Lost & Found section". **Location:** From the street you will have to enter the right hand Cafe Chagall (yes, there are 2).

### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way? This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents. Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to: Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture. Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases. Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI. Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem. Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does. Want to be a speaker? submit your talk to our Call for Presenters!!! [https://sessionize.com/azure-cbus-2026/](https://sessionize.com/azure-cbus-2026/)

Connected Westerville Night of Networking flips the script on networking, with surprises and connections that'll make you say, "Who knew networking could be this much fun?!"

Join members of the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast.

Just a reminder, while the other locations are great too, we’re at the Lane Ave one this time.

Columbus Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session. People of all skill levels attend, and we love it that way. Many people (optionally) bring projects to work on, and many other people (optionally) socialize the entire time. It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
