Creative Art Workshop/ Taller creativo
Creative Art Workshop/ Taller creativo
*Please Always contact me by whats app to book your space at the workshop, thank you!* What we' ll do You don't need to be an artist to join my creative art workshop! I'll be waiting for you outside the MACBA (The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art). From there, we'll take a walk to CCCB (The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona), which has a café and co-working space. Once we get there, we'll ask for coffee/tea and get ready to embark on our creative journey! The art-making process will serve as a bridge for social and creative communication, and the theme will be centered around traveling and the things that make us vibrate. We'll start by using imagery, storytelling, and moving freely between drawing and writing to collage. We'll also work collaboratively, with each collaborator adding to a composition in sequence, allowing creativity to flow as we play. The main objective is self-expression, awakening creativity, having fun, and sharing a nice time together while colors and words come together to empower the artistic experience. I will guide you in the right direction to create something that you may have never thought of on your own, and you can take your own pace with art and bring it back home. The aim of this art workshop is to enhance your own creativity and self-expression. I will provide all the art materials, and the cost is 25 euros for a maximum of four people for a one-hour-long session. An individual session costs 40 euros. If you'd like to attend an creative art workshop please send me a message or call me to book your place. You can also arrange a different time that suits you better. Thank you very much!

ENGLISH! WEDNESDAY / The Central House - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21h
ENGLISH! WEDNESDAY / The Central House - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21h
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method) We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

Bluff Lab: Open Creativity Workshop
Bluff Lab: Open Creativity Workshop
What’s that sound? A new kind of Creativity Lab. ***Bluff Lab*** *is free to attend, with advance RSVP requested at* ***[bluffeducation.org](bluffeducation.org).*** Bluff Lab is an interdisciplinary creative workshop blending improvisation, writing, and sound-play. The lab explores *bluffing* not as deception, but as a creative tool: pretending, testing, and moving forward with or without certainty. Through structured prompts and playful constraints, participants are invited to loosen habits, bypass overthinking, and access new ways of making and collaborating. We begin with an open workshop focused on presence, listening, and creative risk-taking in a supportive group setting. In the second half of the evening, participants can join or observe a playful, guided jam using material generated during the workshop. Participation is always optional. **What to expect** • Guided exercises using voice, text, movement, and sound • Individual and group-based prompts • A relaxed, process-driven environment with optional sharing • No prior experience required **Who it’s for** Creatives and “*non-creatives*,” students, professionals, performers, musicians, and anyone curious about creative process. Open to all levels and backgrounds. **Details** Language: English (instructor also fluent in Castellano; participants are welcome to write and share in any language they choose) Format: Open session / drop-in Entry: Please RSVP at [bluffeducation.org](bluffeducation.org) Cost: Free; optional pay-what-you-will donation Bring: Notebook, pen or pencil, curiosity **Doors & bar:** 18:30 **Workshop:** 19:00 – 20:20 **Jam:** 20:30 – 21:30 **Location:** The BCN Studio C/ d’Elkano 26, 01A Poble Sec, Barcelona
Teatre i Filosofia: "Abecedari " + col.loqui amb Marina Garcés
Teatre i Filosofia: "Abecedari " + col.loqui amb Marina Garcés
En aquesta activitat anem a la Sala Beckett a veure *“Abecedari”*, obra creada a partir del llegat pòstum de filòsof Gilles Deleuze (París, 1925 -1995). L'obra és una creació de la companyia La Moukhles & Sentís i Pau Matas Nogué. COL·LOQUI: després de la representació hi haurà un col·loqui amb la filòsofa Marina Garcés. IMPORTANT: cada persona gestiona la seva entrada al teatre. * **ABECEDARI** Sinopsi: Fa trenta anys, el filòsof Gilles Deleuze es llançava per la finestra del seu pis de París. Com a últim gest, deixava una mena de testament: una entrevista en forma d’abecedari, on cada lletra es convertia en un concepte. Un any després de la seva mort, dos estudiants preparen a París una tesi sobre el seu llegat. Però les seves discrepàncies sobre com llegir i interpretar aquell abecedari —i també sobre el significat de la seva mort— aviat esdevenen un carreró sense sortida... A partir d’aquí, entendre Deleuze ja no serà una qüestió de definir conceptes, sinó de recórrer relats, posar-los a prova i saber-los escoltar i interpretar. Creación: La Moukhles & Sentís Dramaturgia y dirección: Miriam Moukhles, Joan Sentís y Pau Matas Nogué Reparto: Cris Martínez, Miriam Moukhles y Joan Sentís Escenografía: Paula González Infante Iluminación: Gabriela Bianchi Vestuario: Marcel Puigví Espacio sonoro: Magí Coma Durada: 1h 20 min.

Taller filosófico: Explorando la vida en el Universo
Taller filosófico: Explorando la vida en el Universo
¿Estamos solos en el cosmos? Únete en este viaje en busca de vida en el Universo. ¿Existe vida fuera de la Tierra? ¿Qué implicaciones tendría descubrirla? En este encuentro filosófico nos adentraremos en una reflexión profunda sobre la vida en el Universo, explorando preguntas esenciales que han acompañado a la humanidad desde sus orígenes: ¿Qué entendemos por «vida»? ¿Cómo cambiaría nuestra visión del mundo si no fuéramos únicos? ¿Qué aporta la filosofía a la búsqueda de sentido en un cosmos infinito? A través del diálogo y la reflexión, abriremos un espacio para compartir ideas y perspectivas sobre uno de los mayores enigmas de la existencia. Charla impartida por: Taller Urania 🎟️ Actividad gratuita ⚠️ Sé responsable con tu inscripción. Si no puedes asistir, por favor, cancela tu plaza para dar lugar a otra persona.

Meditación Guiada Conexión con el Bosque
Meditación Guiada Conexión con el Bosque
**¿Alguna vez has entrado en un bosque con algún tipo de malestar y has salido completamente diferente?** Como si algo se hubiera soltado por el camino… Como si la tierra hubiera sostenido lo que pesaba… Como si los árboles te hubieran devuelto calma, claridad o incluso un poco de sentido. Esa es la experiencia que quiero acercarte. **Esta meditación guiada es una práctica creada para ayudarte a:** • Bajar el ritmo • Volver al cuerpo • Escuchar lo que está vivo en ti • Reconectar con la naturaleza **¿Cómo realizar la práctica?** • Reserva aproximadamente 60 minutos solo para ti • Busca un bosque o espacio natural donde puedas estar tranquilx • Intenta estar a solas, sin interrupciones • Lleva contigo: Una botella de agua. Una libreta y un boli. Un móvil y auriculares (si lo deseas) para escuchar la meditación. • Tiene 3 partes: 1 de pie y las otras sentadxs o tumbadxs. Permítete vivir esta experiencia a tu ritmo. Sin exigencia. Sin expectativas. El bosque no te pide nada. Solo te recibe. **DESCÁRGALA AQUÍ:** [https://forms.gle/6v6MtRXeZS1auvv46](https://forms.gle/6v6MtRXeZS1auvv46) Puedes guardarla y volver a ella siempre que lo necesites. Un abrazo Carla
BILINGÜE CATALÀ/ESPANYOL! DIVENDRES / CAFÈ - Meetup de filosofia: 19:30
BILINGÜE CATALÀ/ESPANYOL! DIVENDRES / CAFÈ - Meetup de filosofia: 19:30
**Aquesta activitat té un aforament limitat i les places s'assignen a través del sistema d'inscripció de Meetup. Les places obtingudes es reservaran fins al dia de la trobada al moment en què el grup hagi seleccionat el tema de debat. Si arribeu més tard d'aquell moment, la vostra plaça podrà ser cedida a una altra persona.** Hola i benvinguts al nostre proper Meetup de filosofia de Sòcrates Cafè! Vols una comprensió més profunda de tu mateix i del món? Valores el diàleg profund, honest i respectuós? Si és així, aquesta trobada serà molt interessant per a tu. Es tracta d'una reunió bilingüe; on podrem intervenir tant en català com en espanyol. **ON ENS TROBEM?** Café de l'Opera (NOMES 3 ABRIL!) **QUAN ENS TROBEM** Els divendres de 19:30 a 21:00 (HORARI ESPECIAL 3 ABRIL!) Si us plau, arribeu a temps. Començarem puntualment **QUANTES PERSONES ENS REUNIM** Es proposen sessions amb aforaments diversos, de manera que el nombre d'assistents pot variar cada setmana **QUÈ PASSA A LES REUNIONS** A cada reunió tenim una discussió utilitzant el mètode socràtic:[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_metho](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method)d. Fem, responem i discutim preguntes i idees per estimular el pensament crític i ampliar les nostres perspectives amb alguns conceptes i pensaments en els quals mai hem pensat. L'objectiu principal d'aquestes trobades és enriquir-nos amb les perspectives dels altres, i no convèncer els altres sobre les nostres perspectives. Les reunions són sobre les nostres pròpies filosofies de la vida i no necessàriament el que els grans filòsofs i acadèmics han dit o escrit. No és un club de debat ni una plataforma per fer proselitisme. En canvi, posem èmfasi en qüestionar, tenir una mentalitat oberta i desafiar les nostres pròpies suposicions mentre escoltem i respectem les opinions compartides per altres persones. Una reunió de Sòcrates Cafè es considera un èxit quan els participants surten de la discussió amb moltes més preguntes de les que tenien al principi **QUINS TEMES ES DISCUTEIXEN A LES REUNIONS** Els participants suggereixen temes al principi de cada reunió. Després votem i triem el tema més popular per discutir-lo. No és necessària una formació acadèmica en filosofia; només es requereix entusiasme per intercanviar idees i punts de vista. Alguns exemples de temes escollits a reunions anteriors \- Per quins ideals val la pena morir \- Per què mai estem satisfets \- Per què els éssers humans estem informats que la societat va malament i els líders també estan ben informats\, i no obstant això les coses continuen igual \- És necessària la identitat \- Quin és el preu ètic i l'avarícia \- Què és la postveritat \- Com és possible que les persones a les societats democràtiques estiguin tan obsessionades pel poder? \(Desig de ser diferent\, millor\, més fort que els altres\)\- Què és l'amistat **QUI POT PARTICIPAR EN AQUEST MEETUP** Qualsevol persona és més que benvinguda a unir-se a les nostres trobades. Aquests events reuneixen persones de diferents orígens i cultures, tot i que no és obligatori tenir formació filosòfica. Els nostres participants habituals són persones que tenen desig d'una comprensió més profunda de si mateixos i del món. Persones que valoren el diàleg profund, honest i respectuós

Charla sobre Constelaciones Familiares (Evento Online - Gratuito)
Charla sobre Constelaciones Familiares (Evento Online - Gratuito)
Favor confirmar através del WhatsApp +351914149287 Tema: Las Constelaciones Familiares son una técnica de la medicina holística creada por Bert Hellinger y que nos permite mirar desde otra perspectiva nuestra vida presente. En ellas se da un nuevo espacio a acontecimientos pasados, comprendiendo todo lo vivido y de ese modo se ubican las emociones en otro lugar más sano, en el lugar correcto, liberándonos de cualquier lastre del pasado que pudiéramos tener. La terapia con Constelaciones Familiares revela que muchos de nuestros sentimientos, comportamientos y síntomas no están en realidad vinculados a nuestra propia historia personal, sino que tienen su origen en una lealtad familiar inconsciente que pretende que cada generación reanude los conflictos no regulados de las generaciones anteriores. Las Constelaciones Familiares permiten poner luz sobre estos conflictos y repararlos para liberar a los que los llevan y a sus futuras generaciones. Gratuito/Colaboración voluntária Constelar un tema: 45,00 Euros Facilita: Denise Barbosa Evento presencial en grupo Online (Eventos presenciales 10 y 24 de Enero) Reservas e inscripciones: -Teléfono: +351914149287 -E.mail: barbosa.denise@gmail.com

Can AI be conscious? The legal implications...
Can AI be conscious? The legal implications...
AI is making decisions, generating content, and raising questions we haven't legislated yet, including one that once seemed purely philosophical: can an AI have rights? Recent studies show we're already trusting AI more than our own judgment, with critical thinking declining the more we rely on it. Meanwhile, violations are shaping legislation instead of the other way around, and the fences we're building may already be too late. This is a conversation about accountability, consciousness, and what happens when no one is checking if the rules actually work, or if there is even any rule at all. This session will be led by James and Cody. Bring wine/beer/drinks/food/snacks/whatever if you want to. **Our events fill up very quickly.

Humanist Program
Humanist Program
The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change.

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
