Write Club - Write Together, Think Together.
**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 \| 16:30 – 18:00
🎟 Participation: 5.000 ARS
Bring your laptop, notebook, or chaotic Google Docs.

## WRITE CLUB — Escribir juntos, pensar juntos. 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 \| 16:30 – 18:00

Women’s Moon Circle | Full Moon Gathering
**Women's Moon Circle \| Full Moon in Capricorn \| 29 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 6-8 women to land in their bodies, step out of the pace of everyday life, and be witnessed in community.
*🎫 **RSVP ≠ ticket**. Registration is required to attend.🔗 See payment links in the comments or Paypal link*
---
Each circle will be loosely oriented around the theme of the moon:
\- The **Full Moon Circle** is oriented towards revealing what is complete, and asking what is ready to be released?
\- June's Full Moon in **Capricorn** is about reflecting on the structures and responsibilities shaping our lives, and asking whether the ways we are working, striving, and caring for others are truly sustainable for us.
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 & Intention**
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 and connect to our inner knowing of what to call in and what to release.
✨ **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 (Palermo Soho)**
🗓️ **Monday 29 June \| 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!

💡 No importa cuál elijas: el objetivo es que entres con curiosidad y salgas con un nuevo superpoder en AWS.
🤝 Más que código: Networking y Comunidad
Además de rompernos la cabeza (en el buen sentido) resolviendo el workshop, este evento es la excusa perfecta para:
Hacer Networking de verdad: Conecta con otros profesionales, devs, arquitectos y entusiastas Cloud de la comunidad. ¡Quién sabe si de aquí sale tu próximo colega o proyecto!
Compartir experiencias: Debate sobre buenas prácticas, dolores de cabeza del día a día en la nube y cómo resolverlos.
Comida y charlas: (Opcional: Agregar si habrá pizza/cerveza/café, ej: Acompañaremos la jornada con algo para picar y tomar mientras charlamos).

AI Automation & Entrepreneurship Meetup
**AI Automation & Entrepreneurship Meetup #3 — Buenos Aires**
*Miércoles 1 de Julio · Buenos Aires, Argentina*
We're back for our third meetup — and this time we're covering the foundations that actually matter.
After two meetups building community and sharing real-world cases, it's time to get the map straight: a practical, no-fluff session to understand the full landscape of modern AI and automation.
This edition covers the full spectrum — from Gen AI and automation all the way to Agents, Multi-Agents, and Agentic AI. The goal is for you to leave with the key concepts clearly laid out and ready to apply, no matter where you are in your journey.
Same format as always: one hour of real insights from someone in the community, followed by one hour of open networking.
Whether you're already building with AI, thinking about getting started, or just want to finally understand what everyone's talking about — this is the place to be.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
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.
NFT AI ART Columbus
NFT's are here to stay folks!

**PLUS**
This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.
