Join us on the **2nd of June** at our monthly **Audio Developer Meetup** where we will be hosting a **panel of speakers exploring different approaches to tuning** when developing tools for musicians. See below for details! As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome! Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15. Please note: Attendance is **strictly limited** to people who have RSVP'd **Tuning Panel details:** Many digital music-making tools are built from the ground up with the assumption that all music is based on a 12-note scale with pitches tuned like a piano. This can force musicians who draw from other backgrounds to adapt to this Western-classical ideal or exclude them from exploring certain creative avenues, with political, social and artistic consequences. This panel includes guest speakers with different musical and engineering backgrounds who will share the barriers they have encountered with existing tools and what doors the next generation of tools could open. **Speakers:** **John Kameel Farah** is a Palestinian-Canadian composer who combines elements of Baroque and Arabic music, improvisation and electronic soundscapes, to create music he calls "Arabic-Baroque-Futurism". In his concerts, Farah draws on themes of resistance, history and identity. Surrounding the piano with synthesizers and electronics, he weaves unfolding sonic tapestries in which looping drones morph into Baroque-style fugues and driving Arabic percussion. **Morgan Sully** (US/DE) is a Berlin-based experimental musician descended from the great American portrait painter Thomas Sully and itinerant roots from Southeast Asia and the Pacific Ocean. Morgan’s current practice moves between live electronics, curation, and the thoughtful resynthesis of sonic heritage. **Uygur Vural** is a Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist, cellist, sound artist, and storyteller from Թուրքիyե. His work moves between free improvisation, contemporary music, Middle Eastern musical traditions, and acoustic ecology, exploring the relationships between sound, memory, migration, and urban space. Drawing from both Anatolian musical cultures and experimental practices, he develops performances and listening experiences that challenge fixed ideas of tuning, musical systems, and cultural boundaries. **Peter Kirn** is a Lebanese-American composer and music technologist who, for over twenty years, has written daily at CDM.link (create digital music) about music and music tech. He studied composition and musicology at the CUNY Graduate Center and has hosted workshops and interactive performance laboratories in various formats across the Americas, West and East Asia, and Europe, while generally confusing people by making techno, experimental, or ambient sounds on alternating days. **Laurel Pardue** is a violinist and music technologist. She studied both engineering and music at MIT, leading to a PhD in music instrument design and learning at the UK's QMUL. She has designed and built several novel instruments, including the award winning Svampolin (Guthman, NIME), a hybrid acoustic and digital violin, and the Tabla Touch for Keda Instruments. She’s performed with various musicians including Sam Lee, Bang On A Can, Gamelan Galak Tika, and Mishaped Pearls with live appearances on UK BBC Radio, and German television. She currently writes software at Ableton AG and performs with percussionist Bex Burch and Gamelan Saptarvana. \-\-\- **Accessibility info:** The main entrance is up one flight of stairs, but an elevator and fully accessible toilets are available with advance notice; please reach out 48 hours before the event so we can make arrangements. We will also do our best to support any requests that come in after that time!

For the June edition of our collaborative modeling meetup, we’ll continue the EventStorming deep dive we started earlier this year and explore some of the tactics and recipes of this format. What does that mean, exactly? Massive learning, massive fun, and massive numbers of sticky notes. As always, everyone is welcome. You don't need to be a software engineer to participate. In fact, it would be great to have more people who aren't software engineers. We're here to solve problems cross-functionally, not get into implementation details. As long as you care passionately about getting things right, then you belong here! This is a hands-on workshop. Be prepared to participate fully and add to the energy of the room. Looking forward to seeing you there!

The state deals with a lot of money. People and organisations need to declare, file, and pay taxes or receive returns if they overpaid the state. Tax contributions amount to billions of euros, funding public goods such as infrastructure, education, social welfare, and defence. In the 13th edition of our meetup series, we take a closer look at research and design in public finance and taxation, exploring diverse perspectives from 3 speakers. The evening aims to spark a discussion about the government’s or the state’s role, and how it can be accommodating to citizens, residents, and business owners. We will hear from: * Manuel Großmann (Taxfix) * Merici Vinton (formerly US Digital Service) * Sonja Wilczek (DigitalService des Bundes) The federal government’s DigitalService is hosting the meetup on the mezzanine floor of its Kreuzberg office. All presentations will be given in English. Questions in the later discussion part can be raised in either English or German. The event is jointly organised and hosted by CityLAB Berlin and DigitalService.

An opening of an art exhibition is a nice occasion to catch up and hang out. No agenda, just art, wine and chat. *** KIT Berlin ([@kitstudioartspace](https://www.instagram.com/kitstudioartspace)) invites you to an exhibition of paintings by Wiola Stankiewicz [@wiola_stankiewicz](https://www.instagram.com/wiola_stankiewicz/) “Now it Makes Sense, Isn’t It?” and a musical performance by Antonio Bastos [@antonio__bastos](https://www.instagram.com/antonio__bastos/) Now It Makes Sense, Isn’t It? continues the “Emotional Algorithm” project — a series of paintings built from intuitively selected screenshots, private photographs, and images found online. The images are combined like an emotional bajaderka (a Polish layered dessert traditionally made from mixed leftovers, fragments, and combined remains) — sometimes through color, contrast, or an unexplainable feeling that they simply belong together. The works explore screen aesthetics and digital ways of perceiving images. Meaning often appears only later. And sometimes not at all. Wiola Stankiewicz is a visual artist born in Elbląg, Poland, currently living and working in Coimbra, Portugal. Her practice focuses on painting, collage, and assemblage, using mixed media techniques and experimental material processes. Working with icons of popular culture, landscapes, found images, and photographs from her personal archive, Stankiewicz builds a coherent and autonomous visual language based on intuition and process. Her works function as images of an open character, in which meaning emerges from the relationships between image, material, and gesture. Antonio Bastos turns vulnerability into stage, community into sound and instinct into creation. From electronics to tradition, from improvised lyrics to shared movement, his music is born live and unfolds into a visual, emotional experience. With dozens of releases and festival shows, he was awarded People’s Choice at the IPMA (USA), blending performance with community creation — involving choirs, schools and local groups of all ages. Each concert is a seed sown in the territory, where the audience also becomes creator.

You must complete the registration process on lu.ma to receive the full event location details and confirmation of your attendance. **Please note: Without approved registration on Luma, you will NOT be able to access the event location or attend.** We are excited to host a **BLISS x juna.ai workshop** featuring **Dr. Nima Siboni (senior RL Engineer)**, who will guide us through an interactive session on algorithm discovery with LLMs. **​​​ Title: The Heuristic Scientist: Open-Ended Algorithm Discovery with LLMs** **📅 Date: 03.06.2026** **🕕 Time: 18:00** 📍 Location: TU Berlin Marchstrasse 23 [Room 0.011] ​​​The session will last around 2 hours, followed by a networking session with juna.ai and fellow AI enthusiasts (and free pizza!🍕). Bring your laptop! **​Abstract:** Large language models are increasingly useful not only for writing code, but for exploring the space of possible algorithms. In this hands-on workshop, we will look at how LLMs can act as “heuristic scientists”: generating candidate strategies, turning ideas into executable code, testing them against concrete objectives, and refining them through feedback. The workshop centers on the general discovery loop behind LLM-assisted heuristic generation. Participants will learn how to structure problems for algorithm discovery, prompt models to propose interpretable heuristics, evaluate those heuristics with simulations or benchmarks, and use the results to guide further search. We will also discuss when simple prompting is enough, when training or fine-tuning may help, and how to keep generated heuristics understandable, testable, and auditable. ​By the end of the session, participants will have built a small discovery loop of their own and will understand the practical trade-offs involved in using LLMs for open-ended algorithm discovery: creativity versus control, exploration versus verification, and automation versus human judgment. ​ **⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡** **You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend.

Riverty Tech Night in collaboration with KI Park and cloud ahead Most of what we've built over the last \~15–20 years assumes a static frame of reference: Apps talk to services over APIs. You know who's calling what, you can stick a gateway in front of it, apply some policy, and move on. Agents don't really fit that model. They don't just call an API and return. They decide what to do, call a tool, look at the result, call something else, maybe involve another agent, loop through an LLM a few times… all the while, doing onbehalf of the user, with permissions that aren't always obvious. It's not always clear who is actually doing something. It's not obvious what the full execution path looks like. And the access control models we're used to — user → service, service → service fall part. We'll dig into what actually breaks when you start wiring agents into real systems, especially around identity and access control. Things like: \- how \(or if\) you assign identity to an agent \- what it means for an agent to act "on behalf of" someone \- how you enforce policy when the flow isn't predefined \- and how you get any kind of visibility into what just happened We'll also look at some of the patterns starting to emerge: agents talking to other agents, tools being invoked dynamically, and why a mediation layer (ie, agentgateway) must be built from the ground up with this in mind. \-\-\-\-\-\- Speaker \-\-\-\-\-\- Christian Posta ([Solo.io](http://solo.io/)) Christian is a globally recognized expert in cloud-native architecture, service mesh, and distributed systems. As Global Field CTO at [Solo.io,](http://solo.io,/) he works with enterprises to design and implement next-generation platforms—and is now at the forefront of AI-native infrastructure and agent systems. \-\-\-\-\-\- Who should attend? \-\-\-\-\-\- This meetup is for people who are building or thinking about the next generation of enterprise systems: Platform engineers and architects, Cloud-native practitioners, AI engineers working with agents and LLMs, Anyone exploring how AI changes system design \-\-\-\-\-\- How to join \-\-\-\-\-\-\- This time, the meetup will be in the premises of Riverty in Kantstrasse 17, Berlin (4th Floor of Living Berlin mall).
