Circle Song: Improvised Body Music
**Invitation**
**We are the instruments.**
A participatory, improvised, embodied practice that reconnects us to one another through rhythm, voice, and play.
This is a guided yet fully improvised experience, using the facilitation tools and methods of [Musica do Circulo](https://www.musicadocirculo.com/en). No prior experience is required, only an openness to connect with other humans in your own fun, light and authentic way.
Circle songs are an invitation into a fully immersive, fully improvised musical experience using vocals, body percussion and movement. It draws inspiration from musical embodied rhythm practices from around the world, including call-and-response singing, rhythmic clapping games and circle song traditions.
Simply by standing in a circle and connecting with our bodies as our instruments, we are reminded that we can find joy and meaning right here in this present moment, and in the next.

Colectivo Farina #3 / AKASHA HUB - NAVE 1
# Tercer encuentro de nuestro colectivo
âContinuamos el recorrido con nuestro tercer encuentro del Colectivo Farina. En esta ocasiĂłn, desplazamos el foco de la optimizaciĂłn al concepto de **instrumentaciĂłn**, explorando el artefacto como mediador entre la mano y la materia. Reflexionaremos sobre cĂłmo la creaciĂłn de herramientas especĂficas de bajo impacto condiciona el resultado de lo que cocinamos, transformando el gesto tĂ©cnico en un lenguaje propio. En esta ediciĂłn, el diseño del objeto serĂĄ el que dicte el ritmo, la forma y la escala de la mesa.
# âÂżQuĂ© es ***Colectivo Farina?***
âUn espacio para experimentar, degustar y cocinar colectivamente, creado por **[bifaz](https://www.instagram.com/bifazworks/).**
## â\*\*ÂżPara quĂ©?\*\*
âColectivo Farina busca **reconectar con los ingredientes y retomar tĂ©cnicas olvidadas** de la cocina, reduciendo artilugios y poniendo el foco en lo **manual**, lo **artesanal** e incluso lo **ancestral**. Todo desde una prĂĄctica **compartida y participativa,** donde cocinar vuelve a ser un acto colectivo, mĂĄs que una ejecuciĂłn individual. Desde bifaz, creemos que el comer del futuro no solo va tanto del quĂ© cocinaremos sino del cĂłmo y con quiĂ©n, poniendo el foco en la cocina como **acto de comunidad y resistencia a la vida acelerada** que llevamos.
## â\*\*ÂżDe quĂ© va?\*\*
âEste proyecto se compone de **encuentros culinarios** que parten de un concepto transversal (que irĂĄ variando en cada ediciĂłn) con el objetivo de **reflexionar** sobre la **sostenibilidad, la cultura y el futuro** de nuestras prĂĄcticas culinarias. Todo esto se lleva a una actividad de **cocina colectiva**, donde el resultado final serĂĄ, en su mayorĂa (pero no limitado a) pasta, usada aquĂ como formato versĂĄtil, accesible y profundamente comunitario.
## âÂżPor quĂ© *Farina*?
âDel latĂn farÄ«na, âharinaâ o âpolvo fino de granoâ, un ingrediente base de innumerables culturas desde el inicio de los tiempos. EconĂłmica, cotidiana y sustanciosa, la harina representa la sencillez en su mĂĄximo esplendor. Y de eso va este proyecto: de **volver a lo esencial**. De cocinar desde lo bĂĄsico, sin artificios, donde **la pasta, serĂĄ nuestro vehĂculo principal**, no por tĂ©cnica, sino por lo que simboliza: uniĂłn, manualidad y un punto de partida comĂșn.
## âLo que NO es
âNo es una cena clandestina.
âNo es un taller de pasta.
âNo es un restaurante.
âAquĂ **tod@s somos cocineros** y nadie queda por fuera. No hay protagonismos ni jerarquĂas: el resultado es siempre el producto de todas nuestras manos y todas nuestras mentes.
# âA tener en cuenta:
â- Tu inscripciĂłn incluye acceso a la experiencia, la comida que cocinemos, pica-pica y una bebida de bienvenida. HabrĂĄ la opciĂłn de comprar bebidas durante todo el encuentro. Si deseas aportar algo, eres bienvenid@ a traer lo que te apetezca.
\- El evento es gratuito con la opciĂłn de donar un aporte voluntario para cubrir costos del evento\. Sin embargo\, el espacio \(Akasha Hub\) como parte de open collective requiere de una **membresĂa de 5âŹ** la cual pueden ir gestionando a travĂ©s de este [link ](https://opencollective.com/akashahubbarcelona/contribute/membresia-comunitaria-2026-individual-98288)(tambiĂ©n se puede el mismo dĂa).
\- El menĂș serĂĄ apto para **vegetarianos y veganos**. En caso de haber alguna alergia comunicarla de antemano a **[guillermondelli@gmail.com.](http://guillermondelli@gmail.com./)**
\- El encuentro serĂĄ **kid y pet friendly**.
# âOrganizado por Bifaz
â***Un atelier especulativo para el comer compartido***
Bifaz explora las interconexiones entre el **alimento, el oficio y la comunidad** a través de **experiencias, objetos, conocimiento abierto y diseño participativo.** Nuestro foco es construir maneras de vivir y hacer mås conectadas y autosuficientes mediante pråcticas cotidianas como **cocinar, compartir y crear,** retando nuestros conceptos de **conveniencia** con encuentros que priorizan la **convivialidad, la temporalidad y la circularidad** dentro de lo que significa ser **humanos**.

â**Do all ideas have a chance at getting funded?**

You must recruit **at least four total team members** (including the founder) to move forward and have a chance at getting funded on Sunday. If your idea doesnât move forward, you can join another team!
ââ**Do I have to submit my idea online prior to the event?**
ââUnlike previous years, we donât have the option to submit your idea online prior to the event. Instead, everyone will be going through a brainstorming exercise on Saturday thatâll help you prepare for your initial pitch.
ââ**Will we be working for 24 hours straight?**
ââNope. The event is split over two days. Youâll be building on Saturday and pitching on Sunday.
ââ**Do I have to pitch an idea?**
ââNope. You can also simply join a team.
ââ**What types of entrepreneurs does GBH support?**
ââWhile GBH most often works with technology startups, we support *any* organization (for- or non-profit) that makes an impact on health in the US or across the world.

ServiceNow's Got Talent
Builders, creators, architects, admins, consultants - come one, come all. This one's for you.
We're bringing a little friendly competition to the Columbus ServiceNow community while highlighting the cool things people have built on the platform.
Five presenters will take the stage to showcase something they've built, solved, designed, or imagined on the ServiceNow platform - and a panel of judges (plus YOU, our amazing audience) will score them live.
So basically, America's Got Talent but make it ServiceNow's Got Talent.
Bring a notepad if you'd like 'cause you'll definitely be learning something new.
Each presenter gets 10 minutes max to wow the crowd with:
âą A demo
âą A real-world business solution
âą A bold idea
âą A UX transformation
âą Or a creative use of the platform
Judging Criteria:
đ Business Value
đ Innovation
âš User Experience
This event is about celebrating ideas, sharing knowledge, and showing how ServiceNow can drive both business impact and meaningful user value.
Come learn. Come support. Come get inspired.
Refreshments and bites will be provided.
And maybe next time⊠youâll be on stage.
Friday night social: Let's go to scene 75!
Weâre heading back to Scene75 on Friday, March 27 for a high-energy night of laser tag, mini golf, go-karts, arcade games, and whatever chaos we decide to get into.
Weâve done this one before and it was a blast â great turnout, tons of laughs, and just the right mix of competition and hanging out. If you missed it last time, this is your shot.
đŻ What to Expect:
Laser tag battles
Mini golf challenges
Go-karts (for those who need speed)
Arcade games & game cards
You can load however much youâd like onto a game card. Most people will probably be good with $15â$30, but itâs totally up to you.
This is a super casual event â show up, jump into whatever looks fun, rotate groups, and hang out. No pressure, no complicated structure. Just a solid Friday night with good people.
Also⊠I havenât hosted in a bit and Iâm making a push to be more active again. If youâve got ideas for future events youâd love to do, bring them. Iâm all ears.
Letâs run it back. đ„
Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People
**Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People**
Confidence isnât just about believing in yourself, itâs about knowing where you belong and who you can grow alongside.
In this April Confidence Lab Happy Hour, weâll explore how living in your authentic truth helps you find your people, build meaningful collaborations, and create spaces where vulnerability is met with respect rather than risk. Together, weâll reflect on what it looks like to advocate for yourself with clarity and care, and how confidence deepens when itâs rooted in connection rather than comparison.
Featured speaker **Lachandra Baker**, founder of **[LBB Edutainment](https://www.lbbedutainment.com/)** and author of *Your Own Biggest Cheerleader*, will share reflections on authenticity, psychological safety, and the power of community over individual achievement. Drawing from personal storiesâincluding the significance of turning 53âLachandra will invite us into a conversation about showing up fully, being seen, and choosing relationships that support who you truly are.
Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere with space for reflection, shared insight, and intentional connectionâplus drinks, light bites, and the kind of conversations that remind you youâre not meant to do this alone.
Come as you are. Leave feeling clearer about your voice, your people, and the confidence that grows when both are aligned.
**What is Confidence Lab?**
Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether youâre launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fullyâyou belong here.
Our work demands clarity, courage, and convictionâbut the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work.
Itâs designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact.
***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticketâwe want you to join us.*
