Limited spots. The group is limited to 12 people. You can secure your place by purchasing a ticket through the link https://doobeedoo-goodies.sumupstore.com/produkt/humming-traditions-sutartines-woven-voices Date: 17th of June Time: 18:00-19:00 Location: DooBeeDoo Goodies Atelier (Märzstraße 86, 1150 Vienna) A meditative singing circle in Vienna exploring Lithuanian sutartinės, ancient polyphonic songs where voices intertwine in rhythm, repetition, and harmony. A quiet, grounded experience of sound, attention, and togetherness. In this immersive workshop, we step into a shared sound space where listening is as important as singing. Through simple vocal patterns and group singing, voices gently weave together into a living, breathing harmony. Sutartinės are not about performance, but about connection between voices, breath, and presence. No previous singing experience is needed. We sing in groups rather than solo, allowing you to relax into the collective voice. Just bring a natural sense of pitch and a willingness to listen. Humming Traditions is a series of creative workshops that explore the living, breathing essence of cultural practices. Each event invites participants to connect with ancient techniques, natural materials, and artistic expression in a hands-on, immersive experience. The series celebrates the quiet resonance of tradition, the subtle vibrations, textures, and forms that have carried meaning through centuries. Whether through sound, movement, or craft, Humming Traditions is about experiencing culture as a living, dynamic, and tactile art form. Each workshop stands on its own yet shares a common thread: creativity, mindfulness, and a connection to nature and heritage. Participants leave with newly learned skills, a calm mind, and a deeper appreciation for cultural artistry.

**Deutsch:** Dies ist eure Chance, in einer entspannten und gemütlichen Atmosphäre Menschen aus Wien kennenzulernen. Es gibt immer ein paar bekannte Gesichter und auch neue, daher sind alle Neuankömmlinge herzlich willkommen. Um diese Gruppe zu betreiben und die monatliche Gebühr für die Organisation auf Meetup zu decken, empfehlen wir eine kleine Spende von 1 oder 2 Euro pro Person. **English:** Our meetup at The Hive have been really nice. There are always some familiar faces and new ones, So, all newcomers are very welcome. This is your chance to meet people from Vienna in a relaxed and cosy atmosphere. To run this group and cover Meetup's monthly fee for our organizer account, we recommend a small donation of 1 or 2 euros per person.

If you are reading this, you probably know the feeling of being surrounded by art in Vienna, yet feeling completely isolated from a community that truly speaks your language. I am a musician who came from a background where the artistic circle was our second family. I’m not here to start just another social club; I want to recreate **that genuine artistic collective**—a place where we don’t just talk about art, but where art is the foundation of our connection." **What we’ll do:** We’re meeting for a coffee to talk about our experiences, our struggles with the artistic scene in Vienna, and most importantly, to see if we can find 'our people' again. While we want to keep things relaxed, we will have a clear agenda to guide our conversation: 1. **Our Backgrounds:** Sharing our artistic journeys and the specific community vibe we feel is missing. 2. **The Viennese Scene:** A candid talk about our struggles and experiences as creatives in this city. 3. **Our Next Steps:** Discussing what we actually want to build together in future meetups. So, no stiff formal atmosphere, just a real, focused conversation among peers. **Looking ahead:** While this first meeting is about connecting, I hope this group can eventually grow into something more. Imagine a space where we could later: * Share and critique our works-in-progress in a safe, private environment. * Discuss potential cross-disciplinary collaborations (music, film, visual arts). * Organize small, focused cultural outings or listening sessions based on our shared interests. But for now, let's just start with a conversation. If you've been searching for a community that values depth and artistic integrity—I’d love to meet you there.

Step into a slow, mindful morning and discover Sodai, traditional Lithuanian straw mobiles that once filled homes with balance, harmony, and quiet beauty. In this workshop, we will explore the geometry of air, learning how to prepare and string straw into delicate symmetrical forms that sway softly with every breeze. Piece by piece, your hands will follow the same patterns that generations before us used to invite order and peace into their homes. 🌿Limited spots. The group is limited to 8 people. You can secure your place by purchasing a ticket through the link: https://doobeedoo-goodies.sumupstore.com/produkt/humming-traditions-sodai-straw-form-and-wind 🌿Date: 17th of June 🌿Time: 09:30—12:00 (it might take longer, depending on group tempo) 🌿Location: DooBeeDoo Goodies Atelier (Märzstraße 86, 1150 Vienna) An immersive workshop for quiet hands, patient minds, and those who enjoy the slow rhythm of creation. You’ll learn the basic techniques of straw preparation, stringing, and construction, and experience how a simple natural material can transform into something light, precise, and full of meaning. Together, we’ll move through a calm, meditative process, each gesture connecting thought, breath, and creation in quiet balance. By the end, you’ll leave not only with your own handmade Sodas, a timeless ornament carrying both heritage and your creative touch, but also with the knowledge, focus, and stillness that this ancient craft awakens. It feels less like finishing an object and more like completing a gentle ritual of patience and peace. To keep the experience personal and attentive, the group will be small and intimate, space is limited, so that every participant can receive individual guidance and care. This workshop invites you to slow down, focus, and reconnect — with your hands, your thoughts, and the quiet poetry of simple materials. No previous experience is needed, only patient hands, a calm mind, and an eye for quiet detail. 🌿🌿🌿 Humming Traditions is a series of creative workshops that explore the living, breathing essence of cultural practices.

This time we’ll meet in Stadtpark for a portrait session / workshop, with plenty of time to experiment and work in different light situations. It’s a great opportunity to practise working with natural light outdoors, work with a model, and also get a few portraits for yourself. We’ll start with simpler portrait setups and then move into more creative and experimental directions as we go. Each person will have time to photograph the model but can also practice on the side, try different approaches, and also jump in for quick portraits in between. The idea is that we rotate setups a few times and explore how light, background, and small changes in direction affect the image. We’ll have a model with us throughout the session. Donation fee: 5€ Feel free to bring snacks and drinks — it’s a relaxed, open session. To join the community or ask any questions, you can use the Telegram chat: [https://t.me/+_xMTFu0BKaoyYzVi](https://t.me/+_xMTFu0BKaoyYzVi) **What To Bring:** * Your Camera * Potentially some light * A few Ideas for photos **To see examples of my works you can follow these links:** 🔗 [Behance](https://www.behance.net/fedorvasilev) 📸 [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/phfedorvasilev/) 🔗 [My Website](https://www.phfedorvasilev.com/)

These meetings will be a building block approach to learning photographic mastery over three disciplines: Mechanical Mastery (MM) - 13 weeks of the series Exposure Mastery (EM) - 26 weeks of the series Composition Mastery (CM) - A 52 week series All three series will run concurrently and will dovetail as follows: Q3/26 - MM (Iter 1), EM (Iter 1, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt1) Q4/26 - MM (Iter 2), EM (Iter 1, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt2) Q1/27 - MM (Iter 3), EM (Iter 2, Pt 1), CM (Iter 1, Pt3) Q2/27 - MM (Iter 4), EM (Iter 2, Pt 2), CM (Iter 1, Pt4) That's likely confusing, but essentially, MM offered 4 times in that period, EM offered 2 times, and CM offered 1 time. **TO BE CLEAR - THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THESE CLASSES.** This is an aggressive series, with presentations, homework, group shoots to be added in, likely at LEAST twice a month, image critiques, and an expectation that you are willing to put in the work to elevate your photography significantly. Open to all levels and all equipment levels. Don't let hesitation about your skillset and/or gear keep you from a one-time opportunity. The group will meet every Monday, with periodic exceptions, and we will try to keep as close as possible to the original plan. Obviously, more data to come, and will be published as this is further developed, but now is the time to decide if you want to be a part of this.

Let’s meet and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.
