**Achtung Datumswechsel auf den 5.4.!** **Oster Edition / Easer Edition** \-\- Deutsch \-\-\- Für diesen Event der achtsamen Fotografie treffen wir uns bei der Roten Fabrik. Die Rote Fabrik ist ein ehemaliger Industriekomplex aus rotem Backstein direkt am See, mit grossen Fenstern, Schornstein, Innenhof und spannenden Sichtachsen zwischen den Gebäuden – ideal für urbane Architektur‑ und Detailshots. Graffitis, Poster, Patina und der Kontrast zwischen Wasser, Gleisen und Industriebauten bieten reichlich Motive. Wir schlendern in aller Ruhe durch das Areal und suchen dabei bewusst nach Details und kleinen Dingen, die uns im Alltag oft entgehen. \-\-\- English \-\-\- For this mindful photography event, we will meet at **Rote Fabrik**. Rote Fabrik is a former industrial complex made of red brick right by the lake, featuring large windows, a chimney, a courtyard, and interesting sightlines between the buildings — ideal for urban architecture and detail shots. Graffiti, posters, patina, and the contrast between water, railway tracks, and industrial buildings provide plenty of photographic subjects. We will slowly wander through the area and consciously look for details and small things that often escape our notice in everyday life. \-\-\- PS \-\-\- (D) Ein kleiner Hinweis: Schaut doch auch bei unserer Schwestergruppe «[Fotografie im Focus](https://www.meetup.com/fotografie-im-focus-zurich-und-ostschweiz/?eventOrigin=home_groups_you_organize)» vorbei.

Join us on the hike from Trogen to Appenzell! It's the second stage of the Alpine Panorama Trail that leads from Rorschach all across Switzerland to Geneva. For a precise description including pictures see https://schweizmobil.ch/en/hiking-in-switzerland/route-3/stage-2. The picture in the description shows Appenzell in winter 2021 (it's the only one I had from Appenzell). I don't expect any snow there at the moment. However, there might be some snow patches on the way. MEETING: Meeting point is in Zurich main station under the blue angel at 10 am. Be aware that I will join you in Winterthur. I'll meet you in the last coach of second class in direction of travel. HIKE DATA (according to Swisstopo): * Distance: 13.5 km * Difference in altitude: 543 m up and 674 m down * Estimated hiking time (without breaks): 4 hours * Difficulty\*: T2 WHAT TO BRING: * Lunch * Hiking shoes * Cash * Valid ticket(s) for public transport HOW TO GET THERE: * Departure from Zurich main station: 10.08 am (track 6, IR 13 towards Sargans) * Arrival in St. Gallen: 11.22 am * Departure from St. Gallen: 11.26 am (track 12, S21 towards Trogen) * Arrival in Trogen: 11.52 am WAY BACK: There is every half an hour a connection from Appenzell to Zurich.

Fühlst du dich oft im Kopf gefangen und suchst einen Weg, wirklich zur Ruhe zu kommen? Diese Meditationsreise öffnet dir einen Raum, in dem du wieder bei dir ankommen kannst. BEYOND THE MIND verbindet Elemente aus Yoga, QiGong, Zen und Breathwork zu einer ganzheitlichen Erfahrung. Der Ablauf führt dich Schritt für Schritt aus dem Denken zurück in den Körper und von dort tiefer in die Stille. Dafür nutzen wir die vier Elemente: 🌿 Körper – Bewegung, um Spannungen zu lösen. 🌬️ Atem – Tief atmen, um Gedanken zu klären. ⚡ Energie – Den Fluss spüren & sich aufladen. 🧘 Geist – In die Stille eintauchen & beobachten. Diese Elemente bauen aufeinander auf und schaffen einen klar geführten Prozess, der es dir erleichtert, loszulassen und in einen Zustand von Präsenz und innerer Weite einzutauchen. Ideal für dich, wenn du bereits erste Erfahrungen mit Meditation, Yoga oder Achtsamkeit hast und dir eine tiefere, ganzheitliche Praxis wünschst. Du kannst natürlich gerne auch einfach mal reinschnuppern. Das Event ist donation based. Tickets kannst du über **vollkommenheit.ch** sichern und dich dort anmelden.

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!

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do 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 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, 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: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

**We are expanding our creative programming opportunities with Queer Quills, a quiet writing and sharing space. Queer Quills features some prompts, supplies and friendly faces to help get some inspiration or feedback for your writing. Hope to see you there!**

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?

We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)
