Circle Song: Improvised Body Music
Circle Song: Improvised Body Music
**Invitation** **We are the instruments.** A participatory, improvised, embodied practice that reconnects us to one another through rhythm, voice, and play. This is a guided yet fully improvised experience, using the facilitation tools and methods of [Musica do Circulo](https://www.musicadocirculo.com/en). No prior experience is required, only an openness to connect with other humans in your own fun, light and authentic way. Circle songs are an invitation into a fully immersive, fully improvised musical experience using vocals, body percussion and movement. It draws inspiration from musical embodied rhythm practices from around the world, including call-and-response singing, rhythmic clapping games and circle song traditions. Simply by standing in a circle and connecting with our bodies as our instruments, we are reminded that we can find joy and meaning right here in this present moment, and in the next.

Challenging the UX Mantras
Challenging the UX Mantras
**UX Salon** is thrilled to welcome you to a special event in collaboration with **[Masters in Design for Responsible AI](https://ai.elisava.net/master/design-responsible-ai/)** hosted at the beautiful auditorium at **[Elisava](https://www.elisava.net).** **Speaker** In this talk by **[Irene Pereyra](https://www.linkedin.com/in/irenepereyra/)**, a heretic’s stance is taken on the sacred mantras of UX such as “Good UX is simple,” “Good UX is universal,” and “Good UX is intuitive,” challenging them one by one. Through client and personal projects, the argument is made that good UX design is neither universal nor timeless, but situational and shaped by the context of the here and now. The audience is invited to reconsider what “good” truly means in digital design today. **Irene Pereyra** is the co-founder of the independent design studio Anton & Irene and the author of Universal Principles of UX (Quarto, 2023), with a second book, The Accessible Design Reference & Specification Book, forthcoming in summer 2026. She is also a member of Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI). Irene also works at the intersection of design and policy with the Danish think tank 21st Europe, where she contributes to speculative design Blueprints exploring how Europe is rethinking policy, technology, and design. Her work focuses on making complex systems understandable, human, and future-focused. **Hosts** **[Iris Latour](https://www.linkedin.com/in/irisjanelatour/), Director of Research @ [THEFT studio](https://theft.studio)** is a UX research leader working at the intersection of AI, product strategy, and responsible innovation. She is also a student in the MDRAI program, focusing on ethics, systems thinking, and the long-term impact of AI on people and organizations. **[Andres Colmenares](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrescolmenares/), Director of [MDRAI](https://ai.elisava.net/master/design-responsible-ai/) @ Elisava** is a strategist and creative foresight consultant who has built learning programs from concept to reality at leading design schools and curated gatherings that bring creative communities together. He works at the intersection of futures thinking, strategic design and responsible tech, focusing on collaborative learning, critical thinking and understanding the socio-ecological impacts of AI systems and digital technologies. **[Master in Design for Responsible AI](https://ai.elisava.net/master/design-responsible-ai/)** by **[Elisava](https://www.elisava.net)** is a pioneering blended-learning program, created in collaboration with [IAM](https://iam-internet.com/), for future leaders of responsible tech looking to develop the critical skills, knowledge and networks needed to design, implement and govern AI systems in ethical, responsible and creative ways. **Location:** Elisava School of Design and Engineering, La Rambla, 30, 32, Ciutat Vella, 08002 Barcelona **To join us, just:** ✅ RSVP here on Meetup ✅ Answer [this form](https://48db4b2d.sibforms.com/serve/MUIFALVJFCY58-PfU2C7p8iFqLfIpbdAnwa1shIn0g1fbdOPELPhsS2WSTgOGm3hP3zjlXplloQ6K5UdHfoaLW4Xp9Rb-7dWdt2LlM9Qj4zpoKnYUy86h1nQ_Cwku5-DvanYtkLAOnFmDyBEqlo4SyA66wHQ9OAWCsv-XywZi3xxUGlqtpLPBqxByqP9yHhzUlzBLh8JTuj_Akv4) **What’s Happening?** * Keynote Talk: Irene Pereyra on Challenging the UX Mantras * Hosts: Iris from UX Salon and Andres from MDRAI * Interactive Q&A: Get your questions answered * Community Networking: Connect with fellow designers, AI specialists, and UX thinkers **Details:** \*\* Date: Thursday, March 19, 2026\*\* **⏰ Time: 18:30–21:00** \*\* Location:\*\* Elisava Auditorium, La Rambla, 30, 32, Ciutat Vella, 08002 Barcelona **Why You’ll Love It:** Hear from AI and UX specialists \*\* Agenda:\*\* **18:30 – Door Opens** **19:00 – Introduction** **19:15–20:00 – Talk & Q&A** **20:00–21:00 – Socialization & Fun!** **Educational partner:** [Interaction Design Foundation](https://www.interaction-design.org/turn-passion-into-paycheck?ep=ux-salon-bcn) [Uxcel](https://uxcel.com/) **P.S.** Please make sure to show up on time. **If we reach full capacity, we'll not be able to let you in**, even if you have a ticket!
Tour, la filosofia escondida de Barcelona
Tour, la filosofia escondida de Barcelona
¿Cuál es la relación entre los filósofos y la ciudad de Barcelona? ¿Cómo pasaron por ella? ¿Qué reflexiones han surgido de su encuentro y cuáles siguen ocultas en los callejones de la ciudad? Como hacían los filósofos peripatéticos, la reflexión se desarrollará también en movimiento. En cada etapa, un filósofo y una idea permitirán que se desplieguen las ideas sobre la idea de ciudad. De hecho, el hilo conductor del recorrido es la propia idea de «ciudad». Será un pensar caminando, un cuestionar conociendo. El "Tour" es una experiencia colectiva de diálogo filosófico apta para tod@s, tanto para l@s que conocen bien la filosofía como para l@s que no la conocen en absoluto. Para todas las edades y perspectivas. El recorrido dura alrededor de 1 hora y 45 minutos. Al finalizar, podrás realizar un aporte libre, de acuerdo con lo que consideres que ha valido la experiencia. ¿Qué esperas para animarte a vivir esta nueva practica filosófica? CÓMO PARTICIPAR 1. Reserva tu presencia en Meetup 2. El aporte libre se podrá realizar a final del "tour" en efectivo o por: Revolut: +393388716566 Paypal: proemaci@gmail.com Transferencia bancaria: IBAN: IT25Y0760103200000070285267 (motivo del pago: Barcelona) ATENCIÓN: Si no puedes venir, por favor date de baja en Meetup o avísanos por WhatsApp (+34613937727).
