Jam Band

#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session# **Title**: No Other Choice **Language**: Korean **Subtitles**: English **Length**: 139 min **Director**: Park Chan-wook **More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-no-other-choice/ **Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/141172/ **Synopsis**: *No Other Choice* is the new film by Park Chan-wook (*Oldboy*, *The Handmaiden*, *Decision to Leave*). The latest box office hit from South Korea combines black comedy and cinematic mastery in a sociopolitical thriller. After 25 years of loyal service, Man-su (Lee Byung Hun, Squid Game) loses his good job as supervisor of a paper factory when it falls into foreign hands. When finding a new job proves more difficult than expected, Man-su and his family are forced to drastically change their lifestyle. In a desperate attempt to come out on top at his next job interview, Man-su decides to eliminate the competition. How far will you go when there is no other choice? *No Other Choice* premiered at the Venice Film Festival and won the International Audience Award at the Toronto Film Festival. The Korean Oscar entry is on the shortlist for Best International Film. **How it works**: I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

Hi Gophers! Unser nächstes Treffen findet am **Mittwoch, 11.02.2026** statt! 🎉 [Christian Budde](https://github.com/meko-christian/) von [MeKo Manufacturing](http://www.meko.de/) wird uns mitnehmen auf eine Zeitreise durch verschiedene Git-Repos und uns Tools an die Hand geben, mit denen wir auch in der eigenen Codebasis auf Zeitreise zu gehen können. Denn Git vergisst nichts. Wir lesen das Repo als Telemetrie: aggregieren, normalisieren und visualisieren - und schauen, welche Metriken Auskunft zu Fossilien im Code und Team-Dynamik liefern. Wir treffen uns um **18 Uhr** bei [functional](https://functional.team/) (Drostestr. 16, 30163 Hannover), vielen Dank an unsere Gastgeber! Mit dem Vortrag starten wir um **18:30 Uhr**. Danach wollen wir wie immer gemeinsam über Erfahrungen plaudern, voneinander lernen und den Abend gemütlich ausklingen lassen. Wir freuen uns auf dich! \*\*\*\*\*\* Hi Gophers, Our next meeting will take place on **Wednesday, 11 February 2026**. [Christian Budde](https://github.com/meko-christian/) from [MeKo Manufacturing](http://www.meko.de/) will take us on a journey through time via various Git repositories and provide us with tools that we can use to travel through time in our own code base. Because Git never forgets anything. We read the repo as telemetry: aggregating, normalising and visualising – and looking at which metrics provide information about fossils in the code and team dynamics. The talk will be in German, when necessary we can switch to English. We’ll meet at [functional](https://functional.team/) (Drostestr. 16, 30163 Hannover) at **6:00 PM** — big thanks to our hosts! The talk will start at **6:30 PM**, followed by our usual casual get-together to share experiences, learn from each other, and enjoy the evening. We look forward to seeing you there! \*\*\* **Agenda** 18:00 Socialising (on site) 18:30 Presentation (on site & online) ... Networking

Scaling a Mendix landscape requires more than just rapid development; it requires a solid foundation. In this Meetup, we will explore the journey towards software architecture when reaching seniority, find out what architecture is, what an architect does, together with some practical examples. **What You’ll Learn** Now you have finished the Mendix game, you played all the cards, harvested all the points and gathered all the badges... so what now? As a seasoned experienced Mendix developer you probably have seen it all. You have build your fair share of microflows, pages, and integrations. You coached your team members and challenged team to be the best version of themselves while enlighten your client with innovative solutions and ideas. What will be your next step or does it all end here or is it Groundhog day all-over? Being a Mendix Developer puts you in a unique start position to explore new endeavours. In this we give an insight in one of plenty exploration opportunities: the life of an Architect. Find out what architecture is, what an architect does, together with some practical examples. You’ll leave the meetup knowing there is an architect in you. The second session explains how Mendix and AI can help companies build better digital solutions. You will hear when Mendix is the right tool, how AI is changing daily work and software development, and what architects should know to design larger systems using Mendix. The presentation also shows how AI agents can be added safely into business processes. Participants will leave with practical guidance on using Mendix to build scalable applications, how to organize teams and roles, and how to support business goals with low‑code and AI. In short, you will learn how to move from small apps to a secure, efficient, AI‑ready Mendix landscape. **Agenda** * **16:00 - 16:30:** 🚶 Walk-in * **16:30 - 17:30**: 🎙️ Presentations & Q&A * **17:30 - 18:30:** 🍽️ Dinner (for in-person attendees – don’t forget to RSVP with your dietary preferences!) * **18:30 - 20:00:** 🍻 Drinks & Networking **Speakers** 🎤 Zefanja Kleuters - Sopra Steria Mendix Expert with a wide array of experience in development and architecture. 🎤 Andreas Lennevi - Mendix Andreas is an Enterprise Architect with extensive background experience in Mendix and AI **About this event** This is an in-person event hosted at the Sopra Steria office in Nieuwegein.

Ha mannen! Weer een reguliere ManKracht meetup op de vrijdagavond in Amersfoort! Zoals altijd is de intentie voor onze meetups op locatie om een gemakkelijke, veilige en open atmosfeer te ervaren waarin we allemaal kunnen delen of inbrengen wat ons bezig houdt als man. Uiteraard zijn tijdens de ManKracht Avond nieuwe deelnemers welkom, we streven zoals altijd naar een groepsgrootte aan van 6 tot maximaal 10 man. Hier kort wat belangrijke info op een rijtje: * De offline meetup begint stipt om 20:00, vanaf dat moment zijn de 'deuren' gesloten. We vragen je dus om uiterlijk 5 minuten van te voren aan te komen. Je bent vanaf 19:30 welkom. * De avond duurt tot ongeveer 21:30. Voel je vrij om daarna het gesprek met andere deelnemers voort te zetten op een andere locatie (café/bar/kroeg). * Graag op tijd de RSVP in te vullen i.v.m. beperkte plaatsen. Mocht je op tijd weten dat je verhinderd bent, graag je RSVP aanpassen zodat mannen op de wachtlijst op tijd weten dat ze toch kunnen deelnemen. * Voel je vrij om een vriend mee te nemen, geef dit in dat geval ook even aan in de RSVP. Hopelijk zien we elkaar weer en mocht je nog vragen hebben dan hoor ik het graag natuurlijk. P.S. locatie is thuis bij Sam

Are you ready to blast past the limitations of a jam session? Are you ready to extract every drop of musical creativity? This workshop is for those who are ready to risk putting everything that goes in their brains out there in musical form! After this workshop, you're never going to look at music the same way! More than a jam, the Jam With Humans workshop is a workshop on how to jam. Your teacher Daniel Matias Ferrer will guide you through exercises on musical improvisation and creativity. In a typical workshop, we start by getting to know each other and why we came to the workshop. Then, we warm-up by allowing ourselves to be silly and childishly curious, usually via theatrical exercises. At this point, we replace the verbal component of these exercises by improvised music. We proceed with exercising our skills in coming up with musical ideas, transferring them and listening to the ideas of others, and finish the session with one big jam. **The Jam With Humans Workshops are free to join. A (voluntary) contribution will be requested at the end of the session for helping with production costs (suggested €20).** **🤔FAQ🤔** **Should I bring an instrument?** If you can, please bring your instrument. PARLOUR AMSTERDAM will be equipped with a bass and two guitar amplifiers, a drum set and a PA system with as many vocal microphones as we’d like to use. **I’m a beginner, can I join?** Yes! The workshop is for everyone: we’ll be able to use whatever sounds you can produce plus all your knowledge of music (both from listening and playing) to explore how they can be used creatively in an improvisational setting. The workshop is also a safe space, so don’t be shy in taking risks musically, we have your back! **I’m a professional, should I join?** Absolutely! Given that the workshop is about improvisation and creativity, chances are you’ll be faced with exercises that allow you to explore your instrument in ways you never thought about before. Plus, you’ll be practicing mechanisms of being able to improvise with anyone else, in different instruments and with different musical sensibilities. **How often should I participate?** As often as you want! The workshops are weekly (or fortnightly during summer time) and their syllabus is circular. All workshops are different and it’s recommended that you come to at least three before you make up your mind about them. Otherwise, show up as often as you want: every week, every two weeks, many workshops in a row and then none for a few months… There is only one catch: those who come often will be invited eventually to join The Jam With Humans Orchestra in a separate rehearsal and join our Jam With Humans live shows. Also, those who come really often (regularly for over a year), will be invited to teach workshops themselves, as that’s a fundamental part of the Jam With Humans pedagogical ethos. **Does everyone have to participate, or can I just watch?** Everyone has to participate! If you’re in the room, you’ll have to participate. No observers! Again: we get your back, no worries. Hold our hand and be ready to dive into the world of improvised music, we’ll be there to help you through the journey. **What style do we play?** Whatever you’d like to play. Musical styles, musical genres, those are words which tend to not be imposed to the workshop participants. The goal of the workshop is to harness whatever is your musical language and sensibility to better cooperate with others in an improvisational context. **Is there anything I should do to prepare?** Actively listen to a lot of music. Sit down and think of what went through the musicians/composers heads that lead to what you are listening to. If you’re looking for inspiration, start with one of the three big influences on the Jam With Humans musical improvisation style: John Zorn, Sun Ra, Frank Zappa.

Join us for some focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area. When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries! **A note about the format** We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

We zien dat AI inmiddels door veel mensen en organisaties wordt gebruikt, vooral voor tekst, plannen en ideeën. Tegelijkertijd merken we dat dit gebruik vaak onzeker en oppervlakkig blijft. Mensen experimenteren, maar twijfelen: * Klopt dit wel? * Gebruik ik AI “goed”? * Haal ik er echt voordeel uit, of kost het vooral tijd? De kern van het probleem is niet een gebrek aan tools of kennis, maar een gebrek aan grip, overzicht en vertrouwen in het eigen oordeel bij het werken met AI. **Wat houdt deze workshop in?** We willen een kleinschalige pilot-workshop (halve dag) organiseren waarin we professionals helpen om: * AI anders te leren zien (als denkpartner, niet als antwoordmachine) * Bewuster vragen te stellen en context te geven * AI‑output te beoordelen in plaats van blind te volgen Het is nadrukkelijk geen technische training en geen overzicht van tools. Het is een leerervaring die zich richt op denken, beoordelen en professioneel gebruik. **Voor wie is dit bedoeld?** De Training richt zich op: * Niet-technische managers en professionals * Die veel werken met tekst, plannen en besluitvorming * Die AI al gebruiken (bijv. ChatGPT), maar daar nog te weinig zekerheid en rendement uit halen **Wat maakt deze aanpak anders?** * Interactief en herkenbaar: deelnemers werken met hun eigen praktijk en leren van elkaar * Beperkt en scherp: geen overload, maar drie kerninzichten * Veilig en menselijk: twijfel wordt genormaliseerd, niet weggepoetst Deelnemers weten na afloop wat ze “maandag anders doen” **Pilot2** Na een succesvolle eerste pilot op 16 januari hebben we weer verbeteringen aangebracht voor deze pilot. We verwachten dan ook eerlijke feedback om deze workshop nog gerichter in te kunnen zetten om professionals meer bewust te maken van de mogelijkheden en onmogelijkheden van AI. Deze workshop wordt verzorgd door Edgar Stormbroek en Ziryan Salayi 9:00 9:30 Inloop 9:30 - 12:00 AI in praktijk 12:00 - 13:00 Lunch 13:00 - 14:00 Vervolg AI in praktijk 14:00 - 14:30 Afronding en feedback Aanmelden op: https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/tickets-ai-essentials-for-non-it-professionals-1980623807124?aff=oddtdtcreator&_gl=1%2A1r9ydzt%2A_up%2AMQ..%2A_ga%2AODU5MzQzMDcyLjE3NzAzNzU0ODI.%2A_ga_TQVES5V6SH%2AczE3NzAzNzU0ODIkbzEkZzAkdDE3NzAzNzU0ODIkajYwJGwwJGgw

## **Making Smart Money Decisions in Relationships** *Live expert discussion + facilitated breakout circles on 'Love & Money'* RSVP (**https://luma.com/b3dphgts)** Money is rarely just about numbers. It’s about who decides. Who carries responsibility. Who plans ahead — and who assumes things will work out. This Valentine’s FinFit Circle session is ***for women who want to build relationships — new or ongoing — that are loving, fair, and financially secure***, without being naïve, pessimistic, or afraid to ask real questions. Whether you’re dating, in a long-term commitment, separating, or starting again, this conversation helps you think clearly about money before emotions or circumstances decide for you. *** ## **What this session is really about** This live FinFit Circle session explores how money shapes relationships in practice — through everyday decisions and conversations. Together, we’ll look at: * **Where money decisions actually get made** (often earlier than we think) * **Which assumptions tend to create tension or imbalance over time** * **Which questions, financial and legal arrangements, and boundaries matter most across different stages of relationships**, while you still have room to choose differently *** ## **Three expert lenses, one grounded conversation** Money in relationships doesn’t sit in one domain — which is why this session brings together emotional, financial, and legal perspectives: * **[Stephanie Clifford-Kroon](https://clifford-kroon-coaching.lovable.app/about)**, Certified Relationship Coach * **[Nadam Schmidt](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadamschmidt/)**, Certified Financial Planner * **[Siham Maachi](https://silkadvocaten.nl/en/team/siham-maachi/)**, International Family Lawyer & Solicitor *** ## **What you’ll walk away with** * **Clarity on your money patterns** and how they show up in relationships * Key questions and **practical tips** **to discuss money constructively** with a (future) partner * ​Ways to think about **shared vs individual finances**, including what’s smart, why, and tradeoffs * **Legal realities** worth knowing early (agreements, rights, timing) * **Perspective and connection** from women navigating similar questions *** ## **How the session works** * **60-minute live fireside conversation** * **30-minute interactive breakout circles** (4–6 women) **Location:** FinFit Circle · Online *** ## **Contribution** This session is **€30**. If you’re able, you can **pay it forward** by sponsoring another woman’s place at the same introductory rate, helping keep these conversations accessible in the FinFit community. *** 👉 **Reserve your spot: https://luma.com/b3dphgts**

# **Band: Old Possum's Menagerie; Caller: Richard Ades** Beginner lesson at 1:30, regular dancing begins at 2:00 pm NOTE THAT WE ARE TEMPORARILY DANCING IN THE AFTERNOON INSTEAD OF EVENING. Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

**DINNER AND MUSIC**! Pubs, breweries, and American eateries often host local bands playing popular hits, country, or rock offering a nice ambiance for socializing and diverse food and drink menus. *Tonight we'll check out [TIPTON TAVERN](https://www.pizza-cottage.com/locations) (inside Pizza Cottage Lewis Center).* Family-friendly casual [pizzeria](https://www.pizza-cottage.com/menu) for pizzas plus salads, wings and subs. We'll meet in the bar area, where the live music is set up. You're welcome to stay late, if you like. *Tonight's band:* Shucking Bubba Acoustic! **Live music starts at 6pm**.
