This month's meetup is about the **[Titans](https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.00663) neural network architecture** published by Google Research: The goal of the architecture is to: * scale transformer-based sequence models for tasks requiring very long context * enable test-time memorization This allows models to maintain long-term memory effectively while running—without the need for dedicated offline retraining. We'll discuss the Titans architecture, with a focus on its implementation of the long-term memory module: * how neural networks can act as memory vs. classical fixed-size recurrent states * how this type of long-term memory compares to traditional RNNs, and why it enables models to learn new context on the fly We will also take a look at the **[MIRAS framework](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.13173)**, which provides a higher-level abstraction for designing sequence models. The key idea of MIRAS is that sequence model architectures—from transformers to linear RNNs—can be viewed as complex associative memories under the hood. We'll see how Titans fits into this framework of neural network design, and why the authors state that Titans and MIRAS can: **"combine the speed of RNNs with the accuracy of transformers."** *** **Follow-up from the last event** HOPE, the reference architecture for Nested Learning, is built on a modified version of the Titans architecture. At our last event, we didn’t have time to discuss many important details about how HOPE is built. So, the March meetup will also act as a follow-up for anyone who missed some of the underlying architectural details last time. === ENTRY DETAILS === \- QR code with entry information will be available soon\, in the "Photos" section of this event page\. \- Gate closes at 18:15 \- no late entries\.

The language of this workshop is Hungarian. A program a **Budapest Accessibility Meetup**, a **UX Budapest** és az **Appy** közös szervezésű eseménye. **Hány kattintás kell ahhoz, hogy egy teljesen működő felület használhatatlanná váljon?** Néha egy is elég, ha közben elfogy a mentális kapacitásod. Sok digitális termék úgy készül, mintha minden felhasználó figyelme egyformán működne, korlátlan lenne, és a döntések nem igényelnének valódi mentális erőfeszítést. A valóságban az emberi idegrendszernek megvannak a sajátosságai, saját ritmusai, határai és terhelhetősége. Amikor ezt nem vesszük figyelembe, a használhatóság sérül. A következő meetupunkon a **kognitív akadálymentesség** és a **neurodiverzitás** kerül fókuszba, és az, hogy ezek hogyan írják át a tervezési alapfeltevéseinket. A kognitív akadálymentesség hiánya sokak számára ugyanúgy blokkoló lehet, mint más, jobban ismert akadálymentességi hiányosságok. Ez nem csak azokra igaz, akik születésüktől fogva érintettek. **Vannak tartós állapotok mint például a neurodivergencia, de vannak szituációs és életkori tényezők is, ami miatt gyakorlatilag mindenki érintetté válik. Pl:** • amikor egy hosszú munkanap után próbálsz egy bonyolult űrlapot kitölteni • amikor egy zajos buszon intéznél el egy fontos ügyet mobilon • amikor alváshiány vagy stressz miatt nehezebben hozol döntéseket. A globális folyamatok mentén pedig • **egyre több idős felhasználóval tervezünk**, akiknél a feldolgozási sebesség, a memória vagy a figyelmi kapacitás változik • **a fiatalabb generációk** másfajta kognitív mintázatokkal használják a digitális termékeket, gyorsabb váltások, fragmentált figyelem, folyamatos ingeráramlás mellett. Ideje ezeket kivétel, “edge case” helyett valós használati helyzetekként kezelni. **Időpont:** 2026\. április 1\.\, szerda\, 16:00 **Helyszín:** Appy iroda (1061 Budapest, Nyugati tér 1. 6. em.) **Meghívott szakértők:** * **Reed Zsuzsa** \- tapasztalati szakértő\, egyetemi tanár\, a Kisvilág Alapítvány vezetője * **dr. Velegi Dorottya** \- CPACC\, jogász **Facilitátorok:** * **Daniss-Bodó Eszter -** neuroinkluzív tervező (Blue) * **Nagy Árpád -** lead ux designer, akadálymentességi szakértő (OTP) * **Klein Péter -** design strategist & leadership advisor (Blue) * **Szántai Károly -** tanúsított web akadálymentességi szakértő, szakoktató **Program:** **Előadás-beszélgetés:** Közösen felfedezzük, mi történik a felszín alatt: • **Kognitív teher**: mennyi mentális erőforrást kérünk el egy adott pillanatban • **Végrehajtó funkciók**: döntés, priorizálás, váltás, és ezek töréspontjai • **Szenzoros feldolgozás**: hogyan válik zajjá az, ami designként indult • **Túltelítődés (overload)**: amikor az inger- és információmennyiség meghaladja a feldolgozási kapacitást • **Mentális energia térkép**: miért nem “ugyanaz a user” reggel és este Konkrét példákon keresztül nézzük meg, hogyan lesz egy jól ismert design patternből akadály, és hogyan lehet visszafordítani. **Workshop:** amikor a probléma kézzelfoghatóvá válik • feltérképezitek egy user journey mentális terhelési pontjait • azonosítjátok, hol csúszik át egy flow túl komplexbe vagy túl zajosba • újraterveztek kritikus interakciókat neuroinkluzív szempontok mentén A cél, hogy **észrevegyük, hol terheljük feleslegesen, és mikor veszítjük el a felhasználókat, és mit tehetünk másképp.** Miért érdemes eljönni? Mert a felhasználók állapota és képességei folyamatosan változnak, élethelyzettől, környezettől és életkortól függően. Ha erre nem tervezünk, akkor valójában véletlenre bízzuk, hogy ki tudja használni a termékünket. **Gyere el, és nézzünk rá együtt arra, hogy a termékeink mennyire működnek akkor, amikor igazán számít.** **RSVP** Kérjük, használd az RSVP-t! Ha bármilyen okból nem tudsz eljönni, kérjük, frissítsd foglalásodat, hogy más számára felszabaduljon a hely. **A helyszín akadálymentessége:** A helyszín akadálymentes. Lift és akadálymentes mosdó található az épületben. Segítőkutyádat természetesen szeretettel várjuk. **Fotózás** Készíts te is fotókat, és töltsd fel ide az eseményhez. Örökítsük meg együtt eseményeinket. **Van Meetup ötleted?** Folyamatosan szeretnénk javítani eseményeinket a te hozzájárulásoddal is. Ha van egy téma a fejedben, vagy ha szeretnéd, hogy a céged szponzoráljon egy eseményt, esetleg segítenél a szervezésben, jelezd nekünk.

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

This workshop is designed to use the power of your intuition to create your own work of art. No previous artistic experience required — just bring your positive energy and I'll provide all the materials you need. **Fee: 8500Ft** At the end of the workshop, you will have created your own intuitive abstract painting and gained the confidence to express yourself spontaneously on canvas. The first part consists of 30 minutes, during which you draw various spontaneous lines on your canvas with your eyes closed and follow your intuition. The next part is about colouring the different spontaneous forms created by the intersecting lines. You can freely mix colors and paint within the shapes, while I guide and support you through the entire process.

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** 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 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. 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. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

Interested in seeing what The Alliance has been working on in 2026? Come be our practice audience as we prepare to sing at JAD/CAR Preliminary Contest! We will be debuting our brand new contest set, and you won't want to miss it! Our chapter quartets, Intermission Quartet and Coffee Talk will also be performing! This is a free event!

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters. QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves! ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas! TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk) PLAN: We’ll plan for 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Possibly post-movie get-together at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan
