**Josep Maria Pujol** will be leading a hands\-on workshop where we crack open the "black box" of physics engines and build real\-time simulations from scratch — no magic\, just math and intuition\.\| **Josep Maria Pujol - Software Engineer, Unity** We start with the fundamentals — position, velocity, acceleration, and time stepping — building an intuitive sense of how objects move. Next, we tackle collisions, impulse response, and simple rigid body simulation, seeing how objects bounce, collide, and respond to forces in real time. Finally, we explore constraints and stability with Position-Based Dynamics (PBD) and Extended PBD (XPBD), also giving a glimpse into how other more complex physics systems work. Through hands-on exercises, you'll experiment in the Unity Editor, tweaking parameters and instantly visualising the effects — turning abstract physics concepts into interactive intuition and building transferable skills for working with physics engines in games. By the end, you'll understand not just how simulations work — but why they work. **Workshop repo:** [https://github.com/JosepMariaPujol/PhysicsWorkshop](https://github.com/JosepMariaPujol/PhysicsWorkshop) **Program:** 17:30 - Sandwiches, sodas and mingling 18:00 - Welcome 18:10 - Workshop 19:15 (approx.) - Mingling continues 21:30 - Venue closing

**“Scientific Questions 2026 (!) — Free Will, Quantum Reality, and What We Still Don’t Know”** Mind, Matter, Uncertainty, and the Limits of Explanation Despite all our progress, some of the most fundamental questions remain wide open. As science advances in neuroscience, physics, and AI, old mysteries return in sharper form: Are we truly free? What is reality at the quantum level? And are there limits to what science can ever explain? This isn’t a popular science lecture or a math-heavy session. It’s a philosophical exploration of science at its edges—where evidence runs thin and interpretation matters. *** **Topics we’ll touch on:** * Free will: illusion, emergence, or something real? * Neuroscience and determinism: are “choices” made before we know them? * Quantum interpretations: many worlds, collapse, hidden variables, or something stranger? * Does quantum uncertainty leave room for freedom—or change nothing? * Can science explain consciousness—or just correlate it? * Are there questions science cannot answer in principle? * And finally… how should we live if reality is stranger—and less certain—than we thought? Casual discussion. No physics or neuroscience background required—just curiosity and a tolerance for uncertainty. Whether you lean deterministic, mystical, skeptical, or undecided—you’re not alone. Let’s explore the unanswered questions—and what they mean for how we understand ourselves.

It's time for yet another pot luck picnic in Fælledparken! Prepare a dish that you consider YOUR comfort food. A dish that you love to eat (and prepare), or something that has some personal value for you, whether it's because of a childhood memory, or a dish that reminds you of [home, or](http://home....or/) just something that you would love to share and introduce to others! If you don't feel inspired to prepare anything, you're still invited to attend, and geek out chatting together with other foodies! We'll be meeting at some benches in Fælledparken (depending where we can find space for all of us). There are usually some available benches close to the entrance from the Stadium. If it happens to rain, we will have to cancel the event, and find another date in the near future. If you do feel like taking a dish with you, or just want to join, please sign up, and keep updated by following the comments within the meetup event, so we can figure out who is bringing what. It's nice to have a bit of something for everyone, if you follow a specific diet. So keep updated in the message feed within the event! WHAT TO BRING: 1\. Your own beverages\. \(Otherwise the Pavillion Cafe in the park also has drinks for sale\)\. 2\. Your own Plates\, napkins\, glasses\, silverware etc\. Aside from the benches (which we hopefully can find), everyone is also welcome to bring a blanket just in case.... Hope to see some new and old faces!
