Join us for the new session of our discussion series **“A Night With…”**, where we dive into timeless myths and their universal messages. Following our last session, where we explored the duality of Apollinian & Dionysiac, this the time to delve into the journey of Orhpeus. **What to expect:** * I will open the meetup with a short introduction to Orpheus’ myth and share (or suggest) a few possible interpretations and connections. * After that, the floor is yours! Bring your thoughts, reflections, and any links you see between this myth and other domains, e.g. literature, art, philosophy, psychology, history or even your own creative work. * If you’re an artist and your work resonates with the divine twins' story, feel free to share it with the group. **Before the event:** Take 5 minutes to read the quick snippet of Orpheus’ myth (provided below👇🏽) and think of: * A book, artwork, or personal reflection that relates to her story. * Any modern parallels or insights you’d like to discuss. This is a space for **open dialogue, creativity, and shared exploration**. ### **🫧The story of Orpheus in Brief** **🎼Orpheus is the legendary poet–musician** of Greek myth, famous for playing the lyre so beautifully that animals, trees, and even stones were said to be **moved by his song.** He marries Eurydice, a nymph (or mortal woman in some versions), and their happiness is brief: Eurydice dies suddenly, most commonly after being bitten by a snake while fleeing danger or wandering in the fields. Stricken with grief, Orpheus refuses to accept her death. **He descends alive into the Underworld to bring her back.** There, his music softens the hearts of the rulers of the dead, Hades and Persephone. Moved by his devotion and the power of his art, they agree to release Eurydice, on one condition: Orpheus must lead her upward to the world of the living without looking back at her until they have both reached the surface. Orpheus begins the ascent, hearing her footsteps behind him but unable to see her. Near the exit, at the threshold between darkness and daylight, **doubt and longing overwhelm him**. He turns to look. In that instant Eurydice is lost again, fading back into the Underworld, unreachable. Orpheus tries to follow, but the passage is closed to the living; he is forced to return alone. After this second loss, Orpheus withdraws from love and society. In many versions, he is eventually killed violently (most famously torn apart by maenads). Even then, the myth insists that his song persists: his severed head and lyre continue to “sing” as they drift downstream, and the lyre is later placed among the stars as a constellation. 📃📜**Principal ancient sources:** * Plato, *Symposium* * Apollonius Rhodius, *Argonautica* * Virgil, *Georgics* * Ovid, *Metamorphoses* * Pausanias, *Description of Greece* * Hyginus, *Astronomica* * | | | --- | |

There’s something special about a Saturday morning that begins slowly — with movement, music, and a relaxed brunch. (Scroll for Hungarian) Our Yoga & Brunch event is exactly that: when movement and nourishing food come together to create a shared experience.🌿 Join us for a Saturday morning of: 🧘‍♀️ Flow yoga 🎶 Live handpan music 🥣 Vegan brunch ✨ A moment to recharge in a calm, inspiring space in the heart of the city. The program begins with a 75-minute Flow yoga class, guided by Ivett and accompanied by Richard’s live handpan music. In this gentle, continuous flow practice, the breath guides the movement, creating a natural rhythm where the practice can almost become a form of moving meditation. Ivett has been practicing yoga for more than ten years and comes from a modern-contemporary dance background. In her Flow classes, the connection between breath and movement is at the heart of the practice. As Ivett says: “For me, yoga is not just physical exercise – it’s a path back to myself.” The class is accompanied by Richárd’s handpan music, which responds to the rhythm of the practice and helps shape the atmosphere of the space. As he describes it: “My connection to music comes from presence — from an inner silence that slowly takes shape as sound.” Brunch after the practice After the class, from 11:15, a nourishing brunch awaits you, prepared by Smoothie Sanctuary. You can choose from specialty smoothies and smoothie bowls made from fresh, premium ingredients, offering a satisfying brunch experience. Participation fee 12,000 HUF / person The price includes: • a 75-minute yoga class with live handpan music • a full brunch menu of your choice (shot, juice and smoothie or smoothie bowl) Registration Spaces are limited, therefore advance booking is required. Please reserve your spot through the link: https://www.sanctuary.hu/service-page/yoga-brunch-with-live-handpan-music?referral=service_list_widget // Van valami különleges abban, amikor egy szombat reggel lassan indul: mozgással, zenével és egy nyugodt brunch-al. A Yoga & Brunch eseményünk pontosan erről szól: amikor a mozgás és a tápláló ételek találkoznak, és közös élménnyé állnak össze. 🌿 Mozdulj velünk szombat reggel: 🧘‍♀️ flow jóga 🎶 élő handpan zene 🥣 vegán brunch ✨ városi feltöltődés egy különleges, nyugodt térben. A program egy 75 perces Flow jógaórával indul, amelyet Ivett vezet, Richárd élő handpan játékával kísérve. A könnyed, folyamatos áramlású gyakorlásban a légzés adja a ritmust a mozdulatoknak, így a mozgás szinte meditációvá válik. Ivett több mint tíz éve gyakorolja a jógát, modern-kortárs táncos háttérrel érkezett a gyakorlás világába. Az áramló Flow gyakorlásban a légzés és a mozgás összekapcsolása áll a középpontban. Ahogy Ivett fogalmaz: „Számomra a jóga nem csupán testmozgás – hanem egy út vissza önmagamhoz.” Az órát Richárd handpan játéka kíséri, amely a gyakorlás ritmusára reagálva teremti meg az atmoszférát. „A zenével való kapcsolatom a jelenlétből születik: egy belső csendből, ami lassan külső hangokká formálódik.” Brunch a gyakorlás után A jógaóra után 11:15-től brunch vár, a Smoothie Sanctuary jóvoltából. Friss, prémium alapanyagokból készült specialty smoothiek és smoothie bowlok közül választhatsz egy tápláló brunch keretében. Részvételi hozzájárulás 12.000 Ft / fő Az ár tartalmazza: • a 75 perces, handpan kísérettel vezetett jógaórát • egy teljes, szabadon választott brunch menüt (shot, juice és smoothie vagy smoothie bowl) Jelentkezés A helyek száma korlátozott, ezért előzetes foglalás szükséges.

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
