We are adding a few sing along songs to our Wednesdays session. You will still get the opportunity to sing as usual we are just adding some sing along songs to add something new to the session. see comment section below for the sing along song list. ​Performers: Space is limited to 10 performers to ensure everyone gets their time in the spotlight. Please secure your spot by booking through the app! ​Listeners: If performance spots are full, we’d still love for you to come along, listen, and soak up the atmosphere. It’s a wonderful way to build confidence and get a feel for the session. ​The Details: There is a small €2 kitty fee. As the venue hosts us for free, we kindly ask that you support the bar by purchasing a drink or two. ​A Note on Parking: The car park directly outside is convenient but strictly monitored, so please double-check the rates to avoid a €125 unclamping fee!

Let's improve our self-awareness, by getting into the habit of writing our thoughts and emotions. & Let's enhance our curiosity and compassion in others, by giving others and ourselves an insight into the unknown lives of strangers. Join us for our 1.5 hours writing event. We will have some exercises prepared that give us the opportunity to write and share about our thoughts/emotions/experiences and use a variety of prompts. HOMEWORK: Before the event, we ask participants to reflect and write +/- 10 minutes about a time they had to make a difficult decision. What was the process that led them to their eventual decision? Participants can choose which parts of their writing they feel comfortable sharing. **NB:** **This will be the last event of The Diary of a Stranger series.** **FEE:** €5 to support the group. Please pay the organiser at the event. We accept cash/revolut/paypal. **NOTE 1:** No writing experience is required to attend this event. Only a curiosity in ourselves and others. **NOTE 2:** Please provide your own notebook/paper and pen.

We are hosting an open **TouchDesigner** meetup with demos, hands-on learning, and space to share work with others using the software. This is part of a series of monthly events in collaboration with **[@noid_lab](https://www.instagram.com/noid_lab/)** typically on the last Wednesday each month in the space, so this month it's 29th April, 7-10pm. **Tickets are free** \- but registration is required to secure your place\. [Click here to register](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/touchdesigner-meetup-dublin-tickets-1987679859968) **Workshops:** In this session we will be hosting two workshops. The first will be run by [Pauric Freeman](https://pauricfreeman.com/), the class will offer a deep dive into instancing in TouchDesigner, breaking down the core principles behind this technique and demonstrating how it can be used to create complex visuals. The session will also explore the integration of MediaPipe, showing how real-time gesture tracking can be used to control instanced systems. Following this, Cailean will be working with ..nodes! but not in the traditional TouchDesigner sense. This small workshop will explore how the behaviour of nodes can be controlled through the Network Editor using Python scripts. **Format:** The session will run for around three hours in a relaxed, hands-on setting. With multiple rooms available at TOG Hackerspace, we can host beginner and advanced activities simultaneously, ensuring everyone gets the most out of the evening. The event will focus on learning, with a combination of scheduled short and long presentations/demonstrations. The last hour will take a more flattened and open approach, allowing the space for people to chat, share, learn, and explore TouchDesigner. Expect an informal, community-driven environment where the format adapts to participants. So if you would like to bring your laptop and learn the basics, share your projects, or connect with other using the software, this meetup offers a welcoming and supportive space to do so. The event is also a great opportunity to meet other creative technologists and artists, and to continue building the growing TouchDesigner community in Ireland. Contact us at [noidlab.collective@gmail.com](mailto:noidlab.collective@gmail.com) to share ideas for future sessions or to express interest in presenting your work. A special thanks to TOG for allowing us to use the space for these events, and [Derivative](https://derivative.ca/) for supporting the project. The meetups are hosted each month by a group of artists and creative technologists:

These group harmony singing and vocal exploration sessions are for anyone who is longing to connect to themselves and others through the voice in service to a more loving world. These 5 weekly Thursday night sessions which run from 30 Apr to 28 May, are all about freeing your voice, singing in harmony and feeling part of a community of warm, friendly people. We will continue till 2 July, so you can also enrol on another 5 week set after this one if you feel inspired to keep going! Over the course of these sessions we will explore together what it is like to cultivate a sense of **being enough (with less effort)**. This is a radical rejection of the ideology of self-improvement, productivity, speed, talent, growth and individualism which we are surrounded by. When we sing, we work intimately with worries around what we sound like, whether the sounds we are making are acceptable, whether we are ‘doing it right’ and ultimately whether we are enough. As we notice these thoughts and feelings, we can invite the ease with which we were born to return. We also work intimately with liberation of our breath and body. > In these sessions you will be invited to become more aware of opportunities to try less, let go more and you will learn about how to support your voice through diaphragmatic breathing and somatic connection. Humans have gathered to use their voices as tools for healing, prayer, divination, plant communication, echoes of topography, expressions of identity, creators of harmony and much more but music and singing have been reduced largely to entertainment and big business in modern capitalist culture. In these sessions we **reclaim our voices as technologies of connection and enchantment**. Singing is not for the few, it is our birthright and a means to better health and wellbeing. We will experience beauty not only in the aesthetics of our voices but in their authenticity and capacity to connect us. We do not have to sound or look beautiful to *be* beautiful as we are all miraculous beings simply by existing. Singing is one of the most powerful tools to connect and bond human beings so as we sing together, you will experience a sense of being held in a container of human sound, a balm for the soul. You may even experience a sense of ‘interbeing’, a deep sense of interconnectedness and non-duality. Contrary to what we are told, us humans are not on this Earth to compete with and dominate each other. > We are all leaves of the same tree, cells of the same organism, stewards of the same Earth. This course will also be rooted in what we can **learn from Indigenous and traditional cultures and from living systems (nature)**. We will sing songs which connect us to our ancestral lineages and to the Earth. We will musically explore and celebrate concepts from the Global South such as Ubuntu (a set of related African value systems emphasising interconnectedness) and Buen Vivir (a Latin American concept describing living well as sustainably living in harmony within a community including humans and nature) as well as those from closer to home such as ‘*Dinnseanchas’, meaning* lore and knowledge of place and ‘d*úchas’* (heritage and wildness, a sense of where you come from, to whom and to where you belong). This course is open to all, regardless of how you sound and previous experience. The Facilitator: Rachel is a song leader with a background in ethnomusicology and has spent time with many communities around the world facilitating and researching music making, Rachel is also an educator and uses music and singing as a tool for for learning and changemaking in the areas of wellbeing, diversity, sustainability, social justice and community building community. ##### **Booking & Pricing:** 5 week course €140 - €90 sliding scale Info and sign ups: https://fullcirclechange.ie/event/rooted-together-in-harmony/

Overview Get ready to immerse yourself in a spiritual journey through music and meditation at the Friday Night Kirtan event! Join us every Friday at **ISKCON Dublin** for an evening that’s more than just a concert—it’s a sanctuary. Located right in the heart of the city, at the top of the stairs on Abbey Street, our Friday Kirtan is a space for everyone to unplug, find inner peace, and experience ancient wisdom through sound. #### **What is Kirtan?** Kirtan is a traditional form of "call-and-response" musical meditation. One person sings a simple, ancient Sanskrit mantra, and the group sings it back. It’s effortless, deeply relaxing, and you don’t need to be a "singer" to participate. The music builds from a gentle, meditative whisper to a joyful, rhythmic celebration that naturally clears the mind. #### **Why Join Us?** * **De-stress:** Let the vibrations of the harmonium and drums wash away the week's tension. * **Community:** Meet like-minded people in a warm, non-judgmental environment. * **The Sanctuary:** Discover a quiet, hidden space in the city centre dedicated to peace and self-discovery. #### **The Evening Flow** * **6:00 PM – 7:00 PM:**[ Open Bhagavad Gita Wisdom Circle](https://www.meetup.com/harekrishnaireland/events/313884389/?fromSeries=true&slug=harekrishnaireland&eventId=313884389) (Optional - feel free to join early!) * **7:00 PM – 8:30 PM:** The Main Kirtan Experience * **8:30 PM onwards:** Evening concludes/Community connection time.

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
