On the 3rd March we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup. The long talk will be by Christian Grothe on building audio applications for the terminal in rust. The short talk will be by Maksymilian Padalak on how to convert text prompts into plug-ins. 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: **Building Audio Applications with a TUI in Rust** \- Christian Grothe In this talk, we will explore the possibilities of building musical instruments with a terminal user interface using Rust and Ratatui. We will look at both the challenges and advantages of this approach, illustrated with practical examples and sound demonstrations. **Christian Grothe** is a programmer and musician based in Potsdam. During his music studies, he became increasingly interested in creating improvised electronic music using his own tools. Starting with MAX/MSP, exploring the Axoloti board, experimenting with Arduino and Teensy, and eventually building an analog modular synthesizer from scratch, his technical abilities evolved through time and hands-on experience. Primarily focused on building tools for live sampling, Christian settled on a stack where he uses Rust to create custom sampler instruments running in the terminal, alongside SuperCollider patches—literally making music with tmux. **pluginmaker.ai - How We Turn Text Prompts into Working VST/AU Plugins -** Maksymilian Padalak pluginmaker.ai is the first ever browser-based, no-code generator for VST and AU audio plugins. Users describe an effect or instrument in plain language - "plate reverb with decay and damping controls" - and within minutes receive a plugin they can load in almost any DAW. In this talk they'll demo the full flow from prompt to plugin, walk through how the generation pipeline works at a high level, and share what they've learned building an AI system that writes real-time audio code. Maksymilian Padalak is an ex-Nord Security (NordVPN) developer, guitarist, music producer, former professional standup comedian, and co-founder of pluginmaker.ai - an AI-powered platform that generates audio plugins from natural language descriptions. He co-founded the project with his best friend and ex high school bandmate Dominik Bilski, an ex-FedEx and ex-Pearson developer, bassist, and AI enthusiast. Both quit their jobs to build pluginmaker.ai full-time.

**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).

**\*\*\* SIGN-UP on LUMA ONLY to get the address and attend!\*\*\*** **A Small Update for 2026** Thanks to those who took the LSLab survey. We learned a lot, and will use that feedback to continue creating a dynamic, safe and relevant learning community. Starting now, there will be a few small changes, beginning with this meet-up, so we can test as we go. So after many years on Meetup, LSLab Berlin is evolving. **From now on:** * Events will be announced inside Meetup, but *organized on LUMA* (**Link to sign up here:** [https://luma.com/vs42c5uc](https://luma.com/vs42c5uc)). * We’ll charge a small participation \*fee when you sign up. * Sign-ups to the email so updates can come from LUMA - no spam, just updates on LS events (address or date change, opportunities to be on the design team, events relevant for LS!) This helps: * Cover admin and multiple platform costs * Support behind-the-scenes coordination * Encourage attendance commitment * Give our hosts a more accurate guest count It’s about sustainability and respecting everyone’s time. We will see how it all works and make adjustments as we go. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* **Here we come, Deutsche Bahn** 🚆 We’re on fire in 2026, our second Lab this year and we’re not even out of Q1. As always, we are looking to make it: fun, practical, slightly surprising. **Theme:** TBD – our design team meets next week and we’ll post the theme and string as soon as it’s ready. **Our Host:** We’re excited to be hosted by Deutsche Bahn. Their space gives us plenty of room to move, work in small groups, and play. **What Happens at an LSLab?** Every Lab includes: ✔️ Networking & connecting ✔️ Giving and Getting Help ✔️ A thoughtfully designed Liberating Structures “string.” ✔️ Action planning We don’t do long debriefs during the session, on purpose. LSLab is a practice space, mostly for the Design Team, and the participant, you, learn by doing! By participating. By seeing what it’s like to be part of the collective intelligence. Questions are welcome during the break and after we close. **New to Liberating Structures?** Totally fine. You don’t need experience. We’re a mix of beginners, experienced facilitators, agilists, OD/L&D folks, coaches, leaders, and curious humans who want better collaboration. You’ll learn by being part of it. **Language** Intro and instructions are in English. Small group work can happen in whatever language works for you. Mark your calendar. Come practice. Bring your curiosity. See you there, Sylvia \*If you are facing financial hardship or have been laid off, we'll waive your fee. Just reach out to us and let us know. We want you to be able to contribute and connect with us!

In March we welcome [Valentin Churavy](https://github.com/vchuravy) to talk about the [Julia frontend](https://julialang.org) for LLVM.

Ready to flex your architectural muscles… with a new twist? Join us for our first **AI-Enabled Architectural Kata**, where we'll tackle a real design challenge together, using generative AI as a collaborator in the architectural process. Small teams will work through a complex scenario, but this time each team gets a unique **AI collaboration role** that shapes how they interact with AI during the session. Expect lively debate, creative solutions, plus an honest reflection on where AI helps and where human judgement still reigns supreme. **Mark your calendars for Thu, Mar 5,** and join us at **Thoughtworks Event Space** for an engaging evening dedicated to software design and architecture. Whether you're a seasoned architect, an AI-curious developer, or just passionate about software design, this meetup is the perfect platform to share, learn, experiment with new ideas and meet passionate people. **Event Schedule** * **18:15** – Doors open for snacks, drinks, and socialization * **18:45** – Introduction * **19:00** – **AI-Enabled Architecture Kata**: Small teams' work session * **20:30** – Presentations by teams **❓ What is an Architectural Kata?** Inspired by the concept of “Code Kata,” Architectural Katas are exercises that allow architects to practice their skills in a real-world scenario. It's about honing our craft in software design through practical, hands-on challenges in small groups. Read more about Architectural Katas on [Neal Ford](https://nealford.com/katas/about.html)'s website or on the [original Katas site](https://www.architecturalkatas.com/) by Ted Neward. **What makes this one AI-Enabled?** Building on the classic Architectural Kata format, this edition adds a new dimension: **AI as a team member**. Each team receives a unique role card that defines how they collaborate with AI during the session. The goal isn't to see who can prompt the best. It's to explore together how AI changes the way we think about, discuss, and communicate software architecture. **What to bring** Please have access to at least one AI tool on your phone or laptop (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or similar). We'll provide a short prompting cheat sheet for architectural AI collaboration to get you started. No prior experience with AI for architecture work is needed! **Venue** **Thoughtworks Event Space**, Revaler Str. 31, 10245 Berlin *(Please note that this is a different entrance from the Thoughtworks office located at Revaler Str. 29)* **Sponsored by Thoughtworks** A big shout-out to [Thoughtworks](https://www.thoughtworks.com/) for sponsoring our event and supporting our mission to foster a tight-knit community of software design practitioners. **Code of Conduct** We adhere to the [Berlin Code of Conduct](https://berlincodeofconduct.org/) to ensure a welcoming and respectful environment for all participants. **Spread the Word** We believe the more, the merrier!

One of the most valuable parts of this community is the opportunity to think out loud with other product professionals. This session is built for exactly that. As we wrap up the quarter, it’s a great time to pause and reflect. What’s on track? What needs adjustment? Where could a small shift create bigger impact? Join fellow product professionals for a focused, interactive conversation designed to help you recalibrate for the next quarter. You’ll have the opportunity to share where you are, hear how others are thinking through similar challenges, and gain fresh perspective you can bring back to your team and organization. We’ll gather at 8:00AM, with discussion starting promptly at 8:15AM. 📍 First Watch - 7227 N High St Located in: The Shops at Worthington Ample parking is available. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Start your morning with clarity and connection — we hope to see you there! ☀️

Meeting @ Improving's office in Downtown Columbus, near Cosi. Parking is paid, food & drink are free! This time we're hanging out after the long winter break. We are going to look at a group-member's project used to help learn the fundamentals of Go, and if time allows, we can take a look at how we like to build Go projects using AI.

We will show a variety of methods for building agents that run in Microsoft Foundry. This covers the different types of agents: Prompt, Multi, and Hosted, as well as the development lifecycle using evals and traces.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

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!
