Portrait Photo Walk
Portrait Photo Walk
I saw somebody else do this, and thought it was a great idea A photo walk for those who want to take photographs and for those who want to get their photos taken We will grab some pics at some of Dublins spots. Great if you’re a photographer looking to get some practice in portrait photography or if you’d like to go home with some great pics of u. All photographs provided will be free. Towards the end we can all go to a pub/cafe and review the photos (optional). I have a few spots in mind and would be very happy to get more suggestions
OpenClaw: Getting it alive
OpenClaw: Getting it alive
OpenClaw is having a moment. A personal AI agent that runs on your own machine, talks to you and actually gets things done. **NOTE: Registration needs to be completed here: [giveago.co/register/openclaw-1](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw-1)** It runs on your own machine - a Mac Mini, a Raspberry Pi, a VPS - and actually does things: runs commands, browses the web, manages files, talks to your apps. You reach it through WhatsApp, Telegram, or whatever chat app you already use. It works in the background, remembers context between sessions, and connects to whatever AI model you prefer. No engineering background required. If you can install an app and follow a guide, you can do this. We're running this as part of a three-event OpenClaw series this June, with this being the first. The following events build on the setup and focus on getting productive with the agent and applying it to real work use cases. **NOTE: Registration needs to be completed here: [giveago.co/register/openclaw-1](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw-1)** We'll be working through it together at Baseline, tables of people at different stages, helping each other along. Fresh install or halfway there, there's a spot for you. The goal is simple: leave with OpenClaw alive. Connected to WhatsApp or Telegram. With a personality you've written. Doing at least one real thing. What we'll work through together: * Getting OpenClaw set up (locally or hosted) * Connect to a messaging app: WhatsApp or Telegram * Picking the best model for the job * Writing a SOUL.md: giving your agent a personality that's actually yours * Setting up a MEMORY.md layer * Connecting one real skill before the day is out **NOTE: Registration needs to be completed here: [giveago.co/register/openclaw-1](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw-1)** Prep materials will be sent in advance. Come ready, or come from zero. Both are fine. Bring a laptop. That's it. Run of show: 11:00 Doors open, coffee 11:30 Intro and setup overview 12:00 Build time 13:00 Lunch 13:45 Back to building 15:30 Share what you've got running 16:00 Close **NOTE: Registration needs to be completed here: [giveago.co/register/openclaw-1](https://giveago.co/register/openclaw-1)** \-\-\- ​**Community** [Give(a)Go](https://giveago.co/?utm_source=luma) is a Dublin-based builder community running hands-on events for ambitious people who make things. 30+ events. 1,000+ attendees.

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! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###
Bondage Photography Demonstration
Bondage Photography Demonstration
*Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.

Columbus Arduino Raspberry Pi Enthusiasts (CARPE) (Check Location)
Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
