**Español abajo 👇** ## WRITE CLUB — Escribir juntos, pensar juntos. Detalles Ever opened a blank document, stared at it for 40 minutes, and somehow ended up reorganizing your Spotify playlists instead? ✍️ Yeah. That's why this exists. What's happening: A group of strangers sits down together and writes. That's basically it. But also… not really. Sometimes it's creative writing. Stories. Poetry. Journaling. Random thoughts you haven't said out loud yet. Other weeks it's more practical: newsletters, posts, project ideas, applications, personal branding stuff, business writing, whatever you've been avoiding finishing. 💻 **At the beginning**, we share a small creative prompt or mini input. Something to get your brain moving. But nothing is strict here. You can follow the theme, or work on your own thing. You can write in your native language or one that you're learning. People help each other here. That's part of the idea. 🌍 And the important part: **you're not writing alone.** You can ask questions. Get feedback. Exchange ideas. Or just quietly sit with your coffee and finally focus for two hours without your phone destroying your attention span. 📱 At the end, whoever wants can read what they wrote. No pressure. Listening is also participating. **Who comes:** Writers. Overthinkers. Freelancers. Students. Entrepreneurs tired of working alone at home. People with thoughts too big for Instagram captions. Introverts who prefer writing before speaking. Travelers, locals, creatives, people with unfinished ideas living in their Notes app. ✍️ Basically: people looking for a different kind of connection. **The details:** 📍 TRUFFA café, Avenida Independencia 1854 🕓 Mondays \| 16:00 – 18:00 🎟 Participation: 5.000 ARS Bring your laptop, notebook, or chaotic Google Docs.

Detalles **English above 👆** ¿Alguna vez abriste un documento en blanco, te quedaste mirándolo durante 40 minutos y de alguna manera terminaste reorganizando tus playlists de Spotify? ✍️ Y sí. Por eso existe esto. Qué pasa: Un grupo de desconocidos se sienta a escribir juntos. Eso es básicamente todo. Peroooo... la verdad es que no. Algunas semanas hacemos escritura creativa. Historias. Poesía. Diario personal. Pensamientos random que todavía no dijiste en voz alta. Otras semanas es algo más práctico: newsletters, posteos, ideas para proyectos, aplicaciones, marca personal, escritura para negocios, o cualquier cosa que vienes evitando terminar. 💻 **Al comienzo** compartimos un pequeño disparador creativo o mini input. Algo para poner el cerebro en movimiento. Pero nada aquí es estricto. Puedes seguir la propuesta del día o trabajar en lo tuyo. Puedes escribir en tu idioma nativo o en uno que estés aprendiendo. La idea también es ayudarnos entre todos. 🌍 Y la parte importante: **no estás escribiendo solo.** Puedes hacer preguntas. Recibir feedback. Intercambiar ideas. O simplemente sentarte tranquilo con un café y finalmente concentrarte durante dos horas sin que el teléfono destruya tu capacidad de atención. 📱 **Al final**, quien quiera puede leer lo que escribió. Sin presión. Escuchar también es participar. **Quién viene:** Escritores. Nómades digitales. Overthinkers. Freelancers. Estudiantes. Emprendedores cansados de trabajar solos desde casa. Personas que piensan mejor escribiendo. Introvertidos que prefieren escribir antes que hablar. Viajeros, locales, creativos, gente con ideas sin terminar viviendo en sus notas del celular. ✍️ Básicamente: personas buscando una forma diferente de conectar. **Los detalles:** 📍 TRUFFA café, Avenida Independencia 1854 🕓 Lunes \| 16:00 – 18:00 🎟 Entrada: $5.000 Trae tu laptop, cuaderno o Google Docs caóticos.

¿Qué pasa cuando un modelo de lenguaje deja de solo hablar de música y empieza a curar playlists con tus canciones reales? En esta charla construimos un agente de IA que funciona como tu DJ personal, usando Python, herramientas 100% open source, y conectado directamente a Spotify. Capa por capa: desde un agente que solo conversa, hasta uno que busca canciones, arma playlists reales, y recuerda tus gustos. Todo local, todo open source, todo en Python.

**Women's Moon Circle \| New Moon in Gemini \| 14 June 2026** *When was the last time you gave yourself space to truly pause, reflect, and reconnect, with yourself and with other women?* It can be hard to create that space on your own, to slow down long enough to reflect, be intentional, and create a sanctuary in your life that allows for clarity and sustained direction. The Women’s Moon Circle is a twice-monthly gathering held around the New Moon and Full Moon, offering a steady rhythm to return to. Each gathering is an intimate space for 8–10 women to land in their bodies, step out of the pace of everyday life, and be witnessed in community. Each circle will be loosely oriented around the theme of the moon: \- The **New Moon Circle** is oriented towards a return to oneself, with a focus on tuning inwards to surface desires, intentions, and boundaries. \- June's New Moon in **Gemini** invites us to invites us to become curious about our inner world, our conversations, and the stories we repeat. How do we want to speak to ourselves and others? Each circle will weave together: ✨ **Ritual & Rhythm** We use the moon cycles as a recurring invitation to pause and pay attention, using simple ritual to orient and connect to the cyclical rhythms of nature and to the ebb and flow within ourselves. ✨ **Reflection** A container to slow down, pause, and make meaning of what we’re living. Without space for reflection, life can feel fast, overwhelming, and undigested. Here, we take time to process, integrate, and savor. ✨ **Receiving** Many women are good at giving, holding, and supporting others, but less comfortable with receiving. We practice what it means to ask for support and allow ourselves to be held. ✨ **Relationship** A space to reconnect with your own desires and feelings. To notice where you may be attuned to others at the expense of yourself, and to practice staying connected to your inner experience while also being in relationship with others. It is also about community. Being IRL with women who are thinking more expansively, feeling deeper, and choosing growth instead of staying stuck in the same patterns. The kind of connection that’s difficult to find through surface-level interactions, scrolling, or by navigating everything alone. This is not about perfection or performance. It is about presence, embodiment, and real connection. For women seeking: • deeper conversations • conscious community • time to reflect and integrate • nervous system regulation and rest • a sense of connection and belonging, especially while building life far from home Small group, limited spots. Held in English. 📍 **Guemes 4673 2C (Palermo Soho)** 🗓️ **Saturday\, 16 May \| 7:30pm \- 9:30 pm** Value: 25.000p To reserve your spot send 25.000p (USD $18) via Paypal (mcpherson.elle@gmail.com) or transferencia (ebmc.gal) and send the reciept to 12026432494 via Whatsapp. You will receive a message with the direction and more details. I look forward to gathering with you! xo, Elle

Español abajo 👇 ## ENGLISH VERSION Ever walked into a room full of strangers and thought *"d#\*n, where do I even start"*? 🤔 Yeah. Us too. That's exactly why this exists. 💡 **What's happening:** We get a group of locals, foreigners, travelers, and random interesting humans in one room. Then we play some conversation games. Simple stuff. Cards with questions. Getting people to actually talk to each other instead of standing around pretending to read the bar menu. 🍸 **But here's the thing:** You don't have to be fluent. You don't need to be outgoing. You can literally show up alone, stand in a corner, and still leave with a new contact in your phone. 📱 No forced networking. No "let me tell you about my startup" Just conversations. Real ones. ✨ **Who comes:** People who moved here and don't know anyone. People who speak three languages and want to practice a fourth. Travelers killing time before their next flight. Locals curious about what's happening in their city. 🌍 Basically: everyone who's tired of the same old bar scene. **The details:** 📍 Sabores Puros — inside Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Saturday \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entry:** $5.000 Come solo. Leave with stories. *Or don't. No one will notice.* 🤷 Follow us on Instagram: [https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy](https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy) *** ## VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL ¿Alguna vez entraste a un cuarto lleno de estranjeros y pensaste *"m·#\*da, por dónde empiezo"*? 🤔 Sí. Nosotros también. Por eso existe esto. 💡 **Qué pasa:** Juntamos un grupo de locales, extranjeros, viajeros y humanos interesantes random en un cuarto. Después jugamos algunos juegos de conversación. Cosas simples. Cartas con preguntas. Haciendo que la gente realmente hable entre sí en lugar de pararse alrededor fingiendo leer el menú del bar. 🍸 **Pero aquí está lo bueno:** No tienes que ser fluido. No necesitas ser extrovertido. Literalmente puedes llegar solo, pararte en una esquina, y aún así irte con un nuevo contacto en tu teléfono. 📱 Sin networking forzado. Sin "déjame contarte sobre mi startup" Solo conversaciones. Reales. ✨ **Quién viene:** Gente que se mudó aquí y no conoce a nadie. Gente que habla tres idiomas y quiere practicar un cuarto. Viajeros matando tiempo antes de su siguiente vuelo. Locales curiosos sobre qué está pasando en su ciudad. 🌍 Básicamente: todos los que están hartos de la misma escena de siempre. **Los detalles:** 📍 Sabores Puros — Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Sábado \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entrada:** $5.000 Ven solo.

Grab a drink or some food and get to know each other. This is our first event and we can take it slow. I’d love to meet everyone and hear if there’s anything you like to get out of the group. Looking forward to meeting you all!

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.linkedin.com/company/transformlabs/) Sign up also accessible via [Transform Labs Luma](https://luma.com/transformlabshq)

**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. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

We are bringing Microsoft Build sessions to Columbus Ohio! The Central Ohio Azure Meetup and Central Ohio .NET Developer's Group (CONDG) are coming together to bring some of the labs and breakouts from Microsoft Build to your backyard. In this free, 1 day event, you are going to Build stuff with us! And yes, there will be free food. So please RSVP for a head count!

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
