Coffee Talk
Coffee Talk
Fulfillment. Joy. – Do you know what it is? Do you feel it now? Many of us are living lives that have “just sort of happened”. We had a dream, a vision (maybe we still do) for what we wanted our lives to look like. Somewhere along the way, life took over and something else ended up happening. We made decisions, took a turn down a path, and now our life isn’t what we thought it would be. Or we’re living someone else’s life. Maybe it’s what our parent’s wanted for us. What we believe our partner or a potential partner might want. Or maybe it’s what we believe we need to do and have to be happy. I was one of these people. My life checked all the boxes for what I thought I needed in order to be happy. And still, I wasn’t. Join me for a coffee talk on what it means to live a Life By Design. Where your choices are deliberate and based on your authentic, true self. What you have to let go off to achieve this (hint: the notion that vulnerability is a weakness and feelings of fear and guilt) and who you will become in the process.

Shut Up & Write!™ Copenhagen
Shut Up & Write!™ Copenhagen
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at our Copenhagen Shut Up & Write! sessions. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, résumé, melody, poem, or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: - 15 minutes of hellos and getting settled; maybe some quick intros. - Then, the timer starts! : writing for 1 hour. - After the hour is up... chat / take off / keep writing, if you're on a roll. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens once the hour of writing is complete. Writing can be very solitary... connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. It's best to be on time, but BEING LATE IS ALSO OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check in with us after the session. (We’ll be the ones with the small Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

Softer Dating - 35-55
Softer Dating - 35-55
**Summer Flavours & The Art of Embodied Dating** \- \(Age 35\-55\)\* As the summer heat slowly starts to build, we invite you to another round of Softer Dating! [Tickets through House of Play](https://www.houseofplay.dk/special-events/softer-dating-1) Dating can often times feel very “heady” and intellectual. We think about what to say, try to be funny etc. but by doing that we miss out on a bunch of other juicy and good stuff! This is for you, if you are ready to explore new ways of being in connection beyond the regular small-talk. The thing is, our bodies are incredibly good at understanding what they like and dislike. While the mind is busy making up stories, the body, already senses what is happening in this moment. In this event you are invited to allow your body to lead your experience. *Words and thoughts get to take a little break tonight.* You won’t have to think about what to say next, what to share in order to fill the silence. You get full permission to be in the body, and we will guide you into that space. **WHAT YOU'LL TAKE WITH YOU** Beyond the evening itself, many people leave with: * **New ways of connecting** - discovering forms of interaction that go beyond talking * **Greater body awareness** - more in touch with your own body, your yes, and no * **Self-knowledge** - understanding yourself more deeply through experience rather than analysis * **Confidence** - both in social spaces and in honoring your own boundaries * **A shifted perspective** - on how you approach people and relationships going forward You'll learn to take responsibility for your own experience, developing the skill and ability to shape what happens rather than waiting for the other person to create it. This often translates into presence, a quality that serves you far beyond dating. **THE EVENING** **Part 1: Embodied Moments of connection** You’ll meet a range of people through short, guided one-on-one experiences. By removing the pressure of choosing, we create space to simply be present and curious. Consent is explicit throughout. All exercises are invitations, you can always choose to do less or observe. **Part 2: Guided exploration with choice** As the group has landed and found comfort together, you now choose freely who you want to connect with. We’ll explore connection through: • Moving your body (dance, movement) • Mindful touch (soft, consensual) • Curious conversations • Observation & rest (take a break anytime) Touch and closeness may arise, if desired. The atmosphere is intimate but not sexual. No nudity, no pressure. PS: We don’t share the specific exercises in advance for a couple of reasons: to keep the surprise; because what we do depends on the group’s energy. See it as an invitation to trust and stay curious! [Tickets through House of Play](https://www.houseofplay.dk/special-events/softer-dating-1) **WHO IS THIS FOR?** People aged 35-55 looking for meaningful connections. Any gender expression, style of relating, and sexual preference welcome. **DO I NEED EXPERIENCE?** No! Beginners are very welcome. **DO I NEED TO BRING A PARTNER?** No, though it might be nice to bring a friend! **TICKETS** 280 kr for members 350 kr for non-members We offer a 20% discount to students and low income. Discounts cannot be used on top of other discounts. Please reach out to [info@houseofplay.dk](mailto:info@houseofplay.dk) [Buy Ticket](https://www.houseofplay.dk/special-events/softer-dating-1) Tickets are non-refundable. Be sure to read our cancellation policy and no-show fee [here](https://www.houseofplay.dk/terms-and-conditions) **CODE OF CONDUCT** Please read our [Code of Conduct](https://www.houseofplay.dk/code-of-conduct) before attending 1 of 4 Chilies 🌶️ Read about our chili system [here](https://www.houseofplay.dk/chili-system) **QUESTIONS?** *What if I don’t like an exercise?* You can observe instead. We encourage people to take care of their boundaries—it happens and we think it’s wonderful. *What if I feel awkward?* Awkwardness and shyness are welcome. You don’t need to pretend. Most people relax naturally after some time. *What about the gender ratio?* We can’t guarantee your preference will be there, but so far we’ve had a wide, colorful distribution of genders! *What if I’m paired with someone I don’t find attractive?* Softer Dating is about connection, not just romance. Can you bring respect and curiosity, even if there’s no spark? Also, know that you can always step out. **ABOUT THE FACILITATOR** Hi, I’m Philipp (call me Pyt). I’ve been creating intimate events and workshops for years because I love creating spaces where people can unfold and enjoy themselves. I work as a life coach and kink facilitator.

Ideation - Mind over Machine
Ideation - Mind over Machine
**Regenerative software may just be the most purposeful rabbit hole you could dive into RIGHT NOW and we want to explore it together.** **— Where do we see potential for regenerative software?** "Mind over Machine", the new Think-tank and Laboratory for regenerative software is now formally established, and we will run a first round of ideation with the community. **The purpose is simple**: Generate ideas that can form the foundation of the first projects to run in the laboratory: A survey, an Open Source tool, an article, a podcast, a tutorial, a model ...anything goes really! Maybe you are a student and need a purposeful topic to base your master-thesis or internship on. Or maybe you just dream of joining forces with others around ideas you have, that would make the world a better place - **this is it!** **Mind Over Machine** **We will collectively generate, challenge and shape the initial ideas that could define MoM. Expect slightly half-baked thoughts and enthusiastic disagreement.** Join our Open Space style meeting for generation of initial ideas. The program will play out roughly as follows: * Brainstorm ideas, record them in an online backlog * From stage, briefly pitch each idea in the backlog * Upvote the ones that you believe in and would like to contribute to * Similar to Open Space Discussions, we will organize in parallel groups in short time slots and each group will discuss and record project details and perspectives to the ideas * If possible we will organize in work groups around the most vivid ideas and launch projects. **Prior to the event (optional):** You are welcome to take a jump start and present some of your ideas, even prior to the event. The following is a short description on the infrastructure and process we will use. 1. Create an [account on GitHub](https://github.com/signup) if you haven't already. 2. We will be working in the [GitHub Discussions (Ideas category)](https://github.com/orgs/mindovermachine-dev/discussions/categories/ideas) in our @mindovermachine-dev organization. 3. You will see that there are already a few ideas drafted out. 4. CONTINUE! Add your own ideas. If someone else already wrote an idea you like, vote it up, comment on it, supplement it with your own perspective. 5. Consider reading the [Guideline for suggesting ideas](https://github.com/orgs/mindovermachine-dev/discussions/3) first **See you there 🌱**

Human AI Circle "Into the Unknown"
Human AI Circle "Into the Unknown"
​**Preparing people for a change that has no finish line.** ​Most organisations today have a plan for implementing AI. Far fewer have a plan for supporting the people navigating it. The uncertainty is real. The fear of becoming irrelevant. The sense of loss for how work used to feel. The paralysis of not knowing what comes next. Unlike previous transformations, this shift has no clear end state – no “freeze phase,” no finish line. Traditional change management frameworks were not designed for continuous, evolving disruption. ​This first **Human AI Circle** gathering at BLOXHUB creates space for a more honest conversation. It brings together change leaders, HR professionals, and AI implementation leads to explore what truly helps people move through uncertainty. Meet the panel: * **Sofie Henriksen**, Director, Head of AI Adoption, Todai: Guiding organisations through AI adoption, where it works and where it falls apart * **Ioanna Constantiou**, Professor, CBS: Researching why uncertainty, resistance and misalignment in AI transformation are not edge cases, but the norm * **Elena Constantini**, transformational COO, former Group SVP at the Adecco Group: 20 years leading large-scale transformations with commercial in discipline but human by design **What's on the agenda:** \- What earlier work transformations teach us about leading people through the unknown and where those models break down with AI \- Panel: Managing fear\, grief and paralysis in the age of AI\, learnings from real change initiatives \- Simulation with **Sara Høyer Kragelund** from Involved: Walk through how your way of working will change as AI evolves from tool to agent to operating system and leave with a personal backpack of mindsets and approaches to navigate what's coming Food included. Limited seats, attendance is by application.

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
