Tot dan! 😃 Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/habladores/ Meetup Link: https://www.meetup.com/nl-NL/los-habladores/ Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/los_habladores_utrecht/ Los Habladores!

Come discuss books and make new friends 🌈✨ How the meeting works: While we are waiting for everyone to arrive, we have tea and get comfortable. Once most of the group is seated (please aim to arrive on time to help with this!) we go around introducing ourselves. From there we have a loosely structured discussion that can go in whatever direction feels natural. Once we've talked about everything we want to related to the book we often hang out for a while later to chat about other things for anyone who wants to stay. April's book will be Confessions of a Mask by Yukio Mishima. The Dutch translation (Bekentenissen van een gemaskerde) is available at de bibliotheek. The English translation unfortunately has to be procured elsewhere. Confessions of a Mask tells the story of Kochan, an adolescent boy tormented by his burgeoning attraction to men: he wants to be “normal.” Kochan is meek-bodied, and unable to participate in the more athletic activities of his classmates. He begins to notice his growing attraction to some of the boys in his class, particularly the pubescent body of his friend Omi. To hide his homosexuality, he courts a woman, Sonoko, but this exacerbates his feelings for men. As news of the War reaches Tokyo, Kochan considers the fate of Japan and his place within its deeply rooted propriety. Confessions of a Mask reflects Mishima’s own coming of age in post-war Japan. Its publication in English―praised by Gore Vidal, James Baldwin, and Christopher Isherwood―propelled the young Yukio Mishima to international fame. The meeting will take place at De Uithoek handarbeidlokaal, an 8 minute cycle / 20 minute walk away from Utrecht Centraal. Everyone is welcome who has read the book (or DNF, and is okay with spoilers) by the time of the meetup. The book club is hosted in English. Please update your RSVP if you find out you cannot attend. Hope to see you there! 🏳️‍🌈📚

Whether you are a designer with a vision or a player who loves seeing how the "cardboard magic" happens, we invite you to our board game playtesting night in Den Bosch. Here is how you can get involved: **The Evening Flow** * **19:30 \| The Designer Pitch:** We kick things off with a quick showcase. Designers present their prototypes, giving you a glimpse into the mechanics and themes currently on the table. * **The Playtest:** Once the pitches are in, players choose their table. Our goal is to ensure every game gets the eyes (and hands) it needs. * **The Rotation:** Depending on the length of the games, ranging from quick fillers to more "epic" sessions, we will rotate players and designers throughout the night. * **22:30 \| Wrap Up:** We wind down the sessions, exchange final feedback, and head out. **Why Join Us?** * **For Designers:** Get your prototype off the kitchen table and into the hands of the players. Real-world feedback is the most powerful tool in your design kit. * **For Players:** Be the first to break (and then help fix) something new. Your insights directly influence the development of the next potential tabletop hit. **Location:** Labyrinth Den Bosch, Orthen 16, Den Bosch **Time:** 19:30 - 22:30ish Whether you have a game to test or just a passion for playing, come help us turn good ideas into great games. Bringing a game concept/prototype? Consider making a 1-pager (best known as a sell-sheet) to add to your table. Players appreciate this and it helps in preparing for your game pitch. To check for actual updates and to sign up as a designer please go to our Guild website and find the event post of that month. We also share more events and news there: [spellenmaakgilde.nl](https://spellenmaakgilde.nl/)

Whether you've been playing since Guitar Hero 1 like me or want to try out Rock Band 4 for the first time, you're welcome at the Console Gamers Group Rock Band & Rhythm Gaming Meetup! I have a projector equipped loft for Rock Band (Beatles, 3, and 4), Guitar Hero (Warriors of Rock and Live), Dance Dance Revolution/StepMania, and Just Dance. There is also a second bedroom that can be used for games like Frequency/Amplitude, Taiko no Tatsujin, DJ Hero, Beatmania, Parappa the Rapper, Deemo, Voez, the Persona Dancing games, and more. When you arrive please park in a space that does NOT have a number or says "Decal Parking Only"; if those aren't available there's lots of open street parking within the Penderbrook community (I'm right in the middle so either side is cool; parking on Center Way or the middle of Penderbrook Drive is best) but please don't parck on a yellow curb or you might be towed! You'll want to turn at the sign that says "The Greens" onto Golf RIDGE, and then to Golf TEE where I'm the first house on the left. When you enter walk all the way up and to the right; look for the Super Mario Bros. doormat. I'm about 10 driving minutes from the Vienna/Fairfax metro station. We usually go out for dinner at around 5 PM; I live a short drive away from lots of shopping centers including Fair Oaks Mall, Pender, Fairfax Shopping/Towne Center, Fair Lakes Promenade, Fair Lakes Center, and Fairfax Corner.

Gaming equipment are not toys. Please be responsible with other people's controllers, consoles, games, furniture, etc. Accidents happen, but if you continuously break things you won't be allowed to use people's equipment. 2. Try and keep a positive atmosphere. A lot of people attend the group to escape from their daily lives. Don't feel like you need to leave your problems at the door, everyone needs to vent once in a while, but please attempt to not do so the whole meetup. We're here to have fun after all, so try and keep it that way! <3

Tools and techniques for creating full media pipelines with generative AI The way media is created is changing dramatically.
