Hi everyone, This coffee morning event is @MIR Concept Coffee Store! Saturday, 23 May 2026, from 10:00 - 13:00. MIR opened its doors 4 years ago, right off Place Jourdan. Doriana, the owner, is a super nice host, and is excited to have our group as her café. The café is very beautiful and has great coffee, and many yummy food options. Their Instagram channel: https://www.instagram.com/mirconceptstore/ **The address is:** MIR Concept Coffee Store Rue Gray 4A 1040 Etterbeek *** 1. The **prime time** of the event is **10:30 - 12:30**. That's when most people will be there. 2. When you enter the gallery, it's either on the right-hand side or left-hand side of its hallway, depending which entrance you take. 3. If you intend **to join past 12:00** (high noon), then there is no need to register. Just come and join! 4. **DON'T forget to cancel** if you can't join! 5. **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event. (And after ;))** **As always, feel free to follow us on INSTAGRAM!** [https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==](https://instagram.com/weekendmorningcoffee?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA==) **THE STRUCTURE of THE EVENT:** * I will post the event on Saturday/Sunday evening for the following Saturday. * I send out a reminder to everyone on Friday. * There is sometimes a waiting list. * In case RSVP is closed (once there are 10-15 people on the waiting list), I might reopen it on Friday, depending on the number of cancellations in the meantime. * **For everyone on the waiting,** please check your status and messages on Friday evening the latest. I message everyone on the waiting list on Friday. * **Please, move to "not going" AS SOON AS you know that you can't come anymore, that includes everyone who is on the waiting list.** **IMPORTANT:** * **Please, be respectful towards each other during the event. (And after ;))** * When you register yourself, be careful not to register accidentally a +1 guest (unless you bring a guest). It happens very often. * If you have any questions then, message me. *** **A MESSAGE FOR NEWCOMERS:** *In the three years of hosting this coffee group, I have met many people who struggle with anxieties when coming to an event for the first time. Sometimes, it took them more than one attempt before being able to join.* *Occasionally, people reach out to me before the event, and I have always been grateful for that as it offers the opportunity to communicate with each other and to find the best and most gentle way for that person to join the group.* *I would like to encourage everyone who struggles with this to contact me before. It would really be too bad if you can't join us, as it mostly gets better the second or third time you come.* *In addition to that, if you arrive and notice any signs of nervousness or fear, you can always let me know right then.* **THANK YOU AND SEE YOU ALL ON Saturday!**

### **What is microdancing?** Microdancing is a dance form based on very small, subtle movements and an intimate, nuanced connection between partners. Instead of big steps or flashy moves, it focuses on tiny gestures, breath-sized shifts, and minimal body communication. This allows dancers to truly listen—to the music and to each other—creating a quiet yet deeply expressive shared experience. ### **Who is this event for?** Microdancing is easy to pick up. Whether you’re completely new to dance or highly experienced in one or several styles, you’ll be able to find a partner and share a meaningful moment on the dance floor. ### **What will the event be like?** We’ll start with open-level workshops that introduce useful tools and techniques for microdancing. These sessions are also a playful way to build connection, trust, and a shared dance language among participants. The potluck will nourish both body and spirit, giving us time to relax and get to know one another. In the evening, there will be space to freely practice and explore microdancing, with music by DJ Diana. More info and registration: https://fusion-circus.com/events/microdancing-in-brussels/

**Cinema Flagey : Amrum** 23/05 @ 15h00 De twaalfjarige Nanning beleeft het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog op een eiland aan de uiterste rand van het Duitse Rijk. Zijn wereld stort in, terwijl het leven doorgaat. De gefictionaliseerde jeugdherinneringen van Neuer Deutscher Film-meester Hark Bohm – en een belangrijke bron voor zijn latere werk. Amrum, in de lente van 1945. De twaalfjarige Nanning woont met zijn familie op de Duitse Waddeneilanden. Zijn moeder is een fervente nazi-aanhanger; zijn vader een Obersturmbannführer die altijd aan het front is. Het Duitse Rijk van de nazi’s is de enige wereld die Nanning ooit heeft gekend, dus als de Tweede Wereldoorlog bijna voorbij is, stort zijn wereld in. In het laatste shot van de film kijkt een oude man uit over de zee. Hark Bohm, op wiens jeugd Amrum is gebaseerd, overleed op 14 november 2025. Dit is een passend slotakkoord van zijn filmografie, want Bohm begon in de jaren zeventig met het maken van films voor kinderen (Tschetan, derIndianerjunge, 1973) en jongvolwassenen (Nordsee ist Mordsee, IFFR 2026), wat hij altijd is blijven doen. Amrum laat zien welke ervaringen de basis vormden voor zijn kijk op de kindertijd – en het verleden, het heden en de toekomst van Duitsland. – Olaf Möller [Cinema Flagey](https://www.flagey.be/fr/activity/14082-amrum-fatih-akin) [Internationale Film Festival Rotterdam](https://iffr.com/nl/iffr/2026/films/amrum) **For Dreamers, Coffee shots, Orezza, eau de Saint-Georges !**

**Please Note the Location Change.** **Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
