Humming Traditions: SODAI - Straw, Form & Wind
An immersive workshop for adults â quiet hands, patient minds, and those who enjoy the slow rhythm of creation.
đżLimited spots â please register early to reserve yours.
đżDate: 27th of November
đżTime: 18:30-20:30
đżLocation: Augasse 2-6 (an old WU building)
Step into the gentle rhythm of creation 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.
Youâll 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, weâll move through a calm, meditative process â each gesture connecting thought, breath, and creation in quiet balance.
By the end, youâll leave not only with your own handmade Sodas â a timeless ornament carrying both heritage and your creative touch â 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 â space is limited, so that every participant can receive individual guidance and care.
This workshop invites you to slow down, focus, and reconnect â 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.
Time is the finest luxury we have, and the rarest to give ourselves, so the moments you give yourself become treasures. Slow down with a meaningful creation and let your hands guide you into calm.
đżđżđż
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 â 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.

ADVANCED badminton players wanted!
Thank you for visiting this event page!
* Are you an advanced badminton player? If yes - WELCOME!
* The earlier you sign up, the bigger your chance to reserve a place - once 9 other players have signed up already, you move to the waiting list.
* Once the waiting list has 3 or more members, I will try to book an additional court, but no guarantees.
I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. You can still contact me if you want to play though.
The fee per player will be âŹ10.00 for 2 hours as the cost of both shuttles and court bookings have increased. But this should now cover also shuttles used during play.
Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.
Sprachen Cafe: German / English / Italian / Spanish / French
**Note:** We are meeting outside again as the first one was very successful. There is also a picnic in the nearby location so we may try to learn languages while having fun and learning sports vocabulary. Bring a blanket to sit on and water and snacks if you like.
This is a **free** event.
Are you ready to practise your language skills?
If you want to meet new friends (or the same friends you met at our other events) and practice all the languages you can speak, join us for a fun-filled evening!
During this event, you have the chance to choose a Group and talk to people in:
1. **English**
2. **German**
3. **Italian**
4. **Spanish**
5. **French**
Our most important rule:
Please be respectful to others at all times.
Yes, there will be a separate beginners' Group if you aren't fluent in the language yet! It is also a great place to find Tandem Partners for the languages you want to improve in!
Get in touch with the Host upon your arrival and he/she will assist you.

Lachflash Comedy Open Mic â Dein Sonntag @TheComedyPub endet mit Lachen
**Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wien. Lachflash statt Tatort â der perfekte Sonntagabend mit neuen Comedians & freiem Eintritt.**
# [HOL DIR DEINE TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/lachflash-comedy-open-mic-dein-sonntag-thecomedypub-endet-mit-lachen-tickets-8QGW97?ref=MeetUp)
Sonntagabend und du Ăźberlegst, ob du dich mit Netflix aufs Sofa wirfst oder dich schon auf den Montag vorbereitest? Falsch gedacht! đ Wien hat jetzt eine bessere Antwort: **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic**. Jeden Sonntag um 18:00 wird *The Comedy Pub* zur BĂźhne fĂźr deutschsprachige Stand-up-Comedy â roh, echt, witzig, manchmal absurd und immer Ăźberraschend. Der perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang fĂźr alle, die nicht aufhĂśren wollen zu lachen.
**Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist das groĂe Finale des Wochenendes. Hier bekommst du einen wilden Mix aus **Newcomern**, die ihre ersten Schritte auf der BĂźhne machen, und **erfahrenen Comedians**, die neues Material ausprobieren. Manchmal entstehen hier Jokes, die in ein Jahr später in Specials oder Fernsehsendungen landen. Manchmal scheitert ein Gag glorreich â und genau das sorgt fĂźr die lautesten Lacher des Abends.
Mit **vielen Comedians pro Show** (oft mehr als 10!) erwartet dich ein abwechslungsreicher Abend:
* Ăberraschende neue Stimmen, die dich mit ganz frischem Humor Ăźberraschen
* Kreative Experimente, die kein Mainstream-Comedy-Club sich trauen wĂźrde
* Scharfe Pointen von erfahrenen Comedians, die genau wissen, wie man eine Crowd zum Toben bringt
Kein Sonntag gleicht dem anderen. Jede Show hat ein komplett neues Line-up â das macht **Lachflash** zu einer Serie, die man immer wieder besuchen kann.
Und das Beste: Hier ist das Publikum nicht nur dabei, sondern ein aktiver Teil des Abends. Deine Lacher, dein Applaus, dein Staunen â all das beeinflusst, wie die Comedians ihre Jokes entwickeln.
## đ¤ Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist das HerzstĂźck der Stand-up-Szene. Es ist keine perfekt inszenierte Show â sondern ein Ort, an dem Comedy entsteht. Hier probieren Comedians ihre neuesten Texte aus, feilen am Timing, improvisieren mit dem Publikum und lernen, was funktioniert.
Das heiĂt:
* Manchmal knallt ein Joke sofort â und alle feiern.
* Manchmal floppt eine Pointe â und genau daraus wird ein unvergesslicher Moment.
* Immer aber ist es spannend, nahbar und authentisch.
Wenn du echte Comedy erleben willst â ohne Filter, ohne Drehbuch, ohne Sicherungsnetz â dann ist ein Open Mic genau dein Ding. Und **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist Wiens neue Adresse dafĂźr am Sonntag.
## đť The Comedy Pub â Das Zuhause der Stand-up-Comedy in Wien
Die Show findet im **The Comedy Pub** (KettenbrĂźckengasse 7, 1050 Wien) statt â Wiens erster und einziger echter Comedy-Club. Während andere Bars ab und zu Comedy hosten, ist das hier das Zentrum einer Szene.
Oben erwartet dich ein gemĂźtlicher Irish Pub mit Drinks, Snacks und freundlicher Atmosphäre. Unten im Altbaukeller â oder im offenen Pub-Bereich â wird jede Woche Stand-up gespielt, getestet und gefeiert. Die Location ist bekannt fĂźr ihr **nahbares, internationales Publikum** und ihr warmes, intimes Ambiente.
Und das Beste: mit der U-Bahn-Station **KettenbrĂźckengasse (U4)** direkt vor der TĂźr bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Geschehen.
## đĄ Eintritt frei â Spenden willkommen
Comedy lebt von Community. Damit mĂśglichst viele Menschen Stand-up erleben kĂśnnen, ist der Eintritt frei. Aber: Lachen ist wertvoll â und wenn du einen **Lachflash** hattest, dann zeig das! Am Ende der Show geht ein Hut rum, in den du geben kannst, was es dir wert war. Fair, direkt und die ehrlichste Form von Applaus.
## đď¸ Regeln fĂźrs Publikum
Damit die Show fĂźr alle ein Erlebnis wird, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge:
* Sei pĂźnktlich â die TĂźren Ăśffnen 17:30, Showstart ist 18:00.
* HĂśr zu und respektiere die BĂźhne â Comedians geben hier alles.
* Lachen ist Pflicht â und zwar ohne ZurĂźckhaltung!
* Kein Heckling â die Gags kommen von den Profis. đ
* Spenden sind willkommen â support your local comedy!
## đ Warum Sonntag?
Viele denken: Sonntagabend = Couch, Serien, frĂźh ins Bett. Aber warum so trist? **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist der perfekte Gegenentwurf: eine Show voller Energie, Lachen und Ăberraschungen â bevor der Montag wieder ernst wird.
* Es ist der **perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang** â Comedy statt Tatort!
* Ein Fixpunkt, der dich mit einem Lächeln in die Woche schickt.
* Ein Raum, in dem du neue Comedians entdeckst, die du sonst nie gesehen hättest.
* Und: die einzige regelmäĂige deutsche Comedy-Show am Sonntag in Wien â im einzigen Comedy Club der Stadt.
Kurz gesagt: Sonntag gehĂśrt jetzt nicht mehr dem Montagsblues, sondern dem Lachflash.

Sunday Screenings in the Living Room
Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles.
Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and mediated by the curator.
WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion.
**FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends!
Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a âŹ6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution.
**FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.

Session Abstract
**Data on Fire: A Hands-On Intro to Spark in Fabric**
Curious about Apache Spark but not sure where to start? This hands-on session introduces you to Spark in Microsoft Fabric Notebooksâa powerful and accessible way to process and analyze big data using familiar tools in the Microsoft ecosystem.
Weâll break down key Spark concepts like distributed computing, DataFrames, and lazy evaluation, then show how they come to life inside Fabricâs notebook experience. Youâll see practical demos that cover loading, transforming, and analyzing large datasetsâwhile leveraging Fabricâs modern data stack, including OneLake, Dataflows, and Pipelines.
Youâll also learn how to choose between Spark and pure Python notebooks in Fabric, based on execution needs, data integration, and use case fit.
Whether you're a SQL pro, BI developer, or data engineer, this session will give you the tools and confidence to start using Spark in your own projectsâno cluster management required.
\*Please note, that we will be using Microsoft Teams for the online portion of this meeting. You may want to join a few minutes early to ensure you do not have any issues. If you are attending in person, there are large TVs at the office, and you do not need to bring a laptop or use Teams.
