The series showcases a range of films from leading queer French-speaking filmmakers.

**Carl Rogers, Ă lâorigine de lâApproche CentrĂ©e sur la**
**Personne, estimait que âlâun des plus profonds besoins des gens est dâĂȘtre complĂštement entendus, compris et acceptĂ©sâ. Son Ă©lĂšve, Marshall Rosenberg, crĂ©ateur de la Communication NonViolente, pensait que les âbesoins des gens ont plus besoin dâĂȘtre reconnus que dâĂȘtre satisfaitsâ.**
Dans une intention de contribution au bien-ĂȘtre collectif, je vous invite Ă participer Ă un cercle dâĂ©coute empathique, centrĂ© sur lâaccueil des Ă©motions et des besoins.
Ce cercle a pour vocation de crĂ©er un espace sĂ©curisant et bienveillant, oĂč chacun peut se sentir Ă©coutĂ© et accueilli. Il sâagit avant tout dâun temps de prĂ©sence et de connexion, favorisant une meilleure conscience de soi et des autres.
Le cercle est ouvert Ă toutes et tous, que vous ayez dĂ©jĂ une expĂ©rience de ce type dâespace ou que ce soit une premiĂšre. Le temps de parole est rĂ©parti par dĂ©faut en 4 blocs de 20 min pour les personnes souhaitant partager une situation qui les touche. Il reste toutefois adaptable. Il est tout Ă fait possible de participer uniquement en tant quâĂ©coutant, sans exposer de situation personnelle.
La rĂšgle fondamentale du cercle est la suivante : la personne qui partage reste pleinement aux commandes du processus. Elle choisit le type dâĂ©coute dont elle a besoin et la maniĂšre dont le groupe peut lâaccompagner.
Avant toute intervention, les participants sont invités à se poser cette question-boussole : « Mon intervention prend-elle soin de la personne écoutée, ou répond-elle avant tout à mon propre besoin ? » .
Attention : ce cercle nâest ni un espace de thĂ©rapie ni un lieu de dĂ©bat.
Remarque : vous ĂȘtes libre de partir quand vous voulez.
â°Horaires : de 18h45 Ă 21h45
đDĂ©roulĂ© : Accueil Ă 18h45 / DĂ©but de l'atelier Ă 19h

\- Ăcoute tour Ă tour des participant\.e\.s souhaitant partager leurs Ă©motions et besoins\, Ă durĂ©e Ă©gale
\- Cercle de clĂŽture
đ MatĂ©riel : vos oreilles, votre coeur et votre volontĂ© de vous connecter Ă lâautre
đ„Participant.e.s : 10 personnes + animateur
đOrganisateur : Thibault, pratique rĂ©guliĂšrement dans des groupes de pratique en communication non violente depuis 2022. Il se forme Ă lâapproche centrĂ©e sur la personne initiĂ©e par Carl Rogers. Il est par ailleurs animateur de fresques (climat, biodiversitĂ©, numĂ©riqueâŠ) et dâateliers au Kawaa autour de la communication bienveillante.
đ°Tarif : 1 consommation par personne avant le dĂ©but de l'Ă©vĂ©nement pour soutenir le Kawaa

Friendly Silent Reading Circle
Join us for a relaxed silent-reading session in a warm and welcoming café/bar.
Bring your current read (or grab a new one!), settle in with a drink or snack, and enjoy an hour or two of calm, focused reading alongside fellow book lovers. đ
No pressure, no agendaâjust a peaceful moment to unwind, read, and maybe chat a little afterward. đ
This group/event is an english-speaking one ( although the books don't have to be). We'll try to find a cozy and comfortable nook to settle into but we can't guarantee total silence. So if you are easily distracted by ambient noise, we recommend you bring a pair of noise canceling headphones đ§đ
PS: The current café that hosts us every Saturday afternoon, requires a 5⏠drink minimum

Cosy Cave Conversations // 10Úme // Café philo in English
**Step into the laid-back charm of Cosy Cave Conversations**, a Parisian philosophy chat that's more relaxed than a cat in a sunbeam đ đ Gather with a bunch of easygoing souls, share thoughts on the good life and its mysteries, enjoy a beverage, and have a good laugh.
A few things to be aware of:
* **Please** **don't show up without a spot** (we aim to keep it cosy and we always have a waiting list these days â check if youâre on the list or the waiting list)
* If it's your first event, it's essential you **turn up early, or at the latest on time (<7pm)** so you understand how it works, what the topic is and don't interrupt the session
* The **session runs from 7pm to 8:30pm** where we focus on the discussion, but don't worry, you'll have a chance to socialise, introduce yourselves and continue the chat after the session.
**If youâre running late** (the curtains are closed), thatâs okay, but please wait to join us in the break rather than interrupting the session.
* Please read the **tips below** for a good session before coming along
**How does it work?** We embrace the cafĂ©-philo method â proposing intriguing topics on the night (up to 3), choosing one together, and diving into everything from consciousness, community, death and god, while managing to keep it light and easy đŠŠ
**Forget the stiff atmosphere**, we're all about small groups (\~10 people) and unpretentious chats with no homework required. No need for a philosophy degree, just bring your open mind and a dash of curiosity.
**Join us every Wednesday 19h-20h30 at Les Acolytes** â because pondering the profound is better with good company (and a pint). See you there! đ
A few tips for a great session:
* come with an **open and curious mind** đ§
* **prioritise listening to others and asking questions** without interrupting or long monologues đ
* we put a strong **emphasise on giving everyone a chance to contribute to the discussion**, so try and be aware of how much space and time you take up when speaking đ»ââïž
* we prioritise **intellectual accessibility**: this is not an academic group therefore we ask to keep any philosophy jargon to a minimum and instead explain any concepts in plain english đ€
* we are an **apolitical group** that focuses on discussing and exploring philosophical ideas without endorsing or aligning with any specific political or religous ideologies. Our aim is to encourage open, unbiased dialogue centered on philosophical inquiry within a safe and respectful environment đ„

Deep Talk / In English
đ©đ° Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian cafĂ©, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. đ„â
We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way. đ
When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation.
While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds.
"Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others."
We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship.
â
This group is adressed to :
â People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives.
â Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates ....
â Please don't subscribe if :
â You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs.
â You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris.
â You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban.
Progress :
â â For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist.
â đ We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people)
â đ On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively.
â đ The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion.
Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions.
â đ (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation.
Advice for a good moment :
â Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame.
Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability.
â Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt.
â Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed.
Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust.
â Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest.
â Listen actively and ask follow-up questions.
â Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard.
It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand.
â â± Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak.
â đ€« Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed.
â đš Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return.
Finally, we're hug-friendly !!! đ€
Meetup for French and English conversationalists of a "certain age."
Notre meet-up réunit une fois par semaine anglophiles et francophiles de plus de cinquante ans afin de discuter de tout et de rien. Le but est d'offrir la possibilité aux uns et aux autres de pratiquer la langue dans laquelle ils souhaiteraient se perfectionner dans un cadre convivial.
Nos directives sont de s'amuser et de respecter les différents points de vue et antécédents personnels. Il est interdit d'insulter ou de dénigrer d'autres membres en raison de leurs antécédents personnels.
Le meet-up se termine précisément à 18h. Si vous souhaitez rester aprÚs 18h, veuillez vous déplacer dans une autre partie du café afin que la direction comprenne bien que la réunion est terminée.
Nous vous invitons à prendre au moins une boisson pour soutenir le cafe. Si vous arrivez tard, vous pouvez commander au bar et le café vous apportera votre commande.
Our meet-up group meets once a week. We are English and French speakers of a "certain age" (over 50), and we meet to talk about everything and nothing. The goal is to offer each of us the chance to practice whichever language he/she is learning, or just to have a conversation in either language with a friendly group in a relaxing atmosphere.
Our guidelines are to have fun and to be respectful of different points of view and personal backgrounds. Insulting or disparaging other members because of their personal background is not permitted.
Our meet-up ends promptly at 6pm. If you wish to remain after 6 pm, please move to a different section of the café so it is clear to management that the meet-up has ended.
Please buy at least a drink to support the café. If you arrive late, you can order at the bar and they will bring your order to you.
Club de lecture n°20 : L'homme qui dort de Georges Perec đ đ«đ·
Bonjour Ă toutes et tous ! âš
Pour notre prochaine sĂ©ance de lecture đ, nous dĂ©couvrirons ***Un homme qui dort*** de Georges Perec đ«đ·.
Ă travers le quotidien dâun jeune Ă©tudiant qui sâĂ©loigne peu Ă peu du monde et des autres, Perec nous propose une rĂ©flexion singuliĂšre sur la solitude, le dĂ©tachement et notre rapport Ă la vie. Avec une Ă©criture Ă la fois sobre et captivante, il nous invite Ă suivre les pensĂ©es et les errances dâun personnage qui choisit de se mettre en retrait, dans une quĂȘte silencieuse de sens et de libertĂ©.
Comme toujours, nous nous retrouverons autour dâun cafĂ© ou dâun thĂ© â pour Ă©changer librement sur nos impressions et nos rĂ©flexions, dans un esprit bienveillant et ouvert.
Jâai hĂąte de partager cette lecture avec vous et de dĂ©couvrir vos ressentis sur cette Ćuvre aussi particuliĂšre quâintemporelle âš
Ă trĂšs bientĂŽt,
Amicalement,
Jade đž

⥠Reset your direction. Meet someone unexpected. Walk away with fresh clarity.
Join us for a relaxed **small-group afternoon event** that blends a light **Inner Coach conversation experience** with a **community potluck lunch**.
In February we hosted our first **Inner Coach event**, and many attendees said it helped them notice something powerful â the voice inside that quietly guides better decisions when life gets complicated.
This event builds on that idea.
Instead of overthinking the past, weâll explore how to **reset direction for whatâs next** â through thoughtful conversation, new perspectives, and the kind of questions that spark real insight.
Weâll start with a few short conversation rounds designed to spark reflection, humor, and perspective â and then continue the discussion over food and relaxed conversation.
Think **good food, grounded people, and real conversations about what comes next in life.**
Held in our **Startup Garage** â a bright, comfortable living-room style space inside a single-family home.
(Couches, food, conversation â **not an actual garage** đ)
***
## **đ„ Potluck Lunch**
If you're able, bring something small to share.
Homemade or store-bought â both welcome.
A dish you enjoy making. A dish that always works
Or simply something easy from the store
If you're busy, come anyway â the goal is **community, not perfection**.
Weâll share a relaxed **afternoon potluck lunch** while continuing meaningful conversations with people navigating their next chapter.
***
## **What Youâll Experience**

Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: Can Artificial Intelligence âSeeâ?
[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **âCan Artificial Intelligence âSeeâ?â** A look at how humans and artificial intelligence systems interpret the visual world in fundamentally different ways, with Arryn Robbins, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Richmond and cognitive scientist who researches visual attention, perception, and category learning.
[Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-can-AI-see](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-can-AI-see) .]
Artificial intelligence can now identify faces, categorize objects, describe scenes, and outperform humans on certain visual tasks. But does AI actually âseeâ the world the way that people do? Or does it arrive at correct answers using representations that differ markedly from human perception?
Join Arryn Robbins of the University of Richmond for a fascinating exploration of how humans and AI construct meaning from visual information and a look at comparisons between human perception and AI that reveal just how dynamic and context-dependent our own visual systems really are.
Dr. Robbins, who previously has given excellent Profs and Pints talks on flaws and biases in human visual perception, will draw from research in cognitive science, visual perception, and AI vision systems.
Sheâll explain how human perception is not merely a simple recording of the world, but an active process shaped by expectations, context, goals, and recent experience. Youâll learn how humans form flexible mental representations that allow us to recognize objects across changing environments and conditions, and why those representations continuously adapt as we interact with the world.
Many AI systems, by contrast, learn visual categories through statistical patterns in data. They can produce impressive results, but sometimes they also produce strange and unexpected failures, and sometimes they classify images in ways that seem strange to us.
Dr. Robbins will discuss what these differences reveal about the nature of perception itself, and why the mismatch between human and AI representations matters for technologies like self-driving cars, medical imaging, facial recognition, and automated surveillance.
Important for anyone trying to understand the rapidly growing role of AI in daily life, this talk will explore one of the biggest questions in cognitive science and artificial intelligence: What does it actually mean to âseeâ and understand the world? (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)
