Offener Leseabend
## Wo & Wann?
**JEDEN MONTAG** findet die offene Lesebühne des Autorenforums Berlin statt (außer an Feiertagen)
**BEGINN**: 20:00 Uhr
**ANMELDUNG zum Lesen: ab 19:30 Uhr**
beim Moderator des Abends – siehe [Termine](http://autorenforum-berlin.de/wordpress/termine/);
Die Teilnahme an der Veranstaltung ist kostenlos.
**SCHWARTZSCHE VILLA**
**Großer Salon**
Direkt am S/U Rathaus Steglitz
Grunewaldstr. 55
Der offene Leseabend stellt das Herzstück des Autorenforums e.V. dar. Er steht nicht nur Mitgliedern, sondern grundsätzlich jedem Autor und jeder Autorin offen, der gerne einen unveröffentlichten Text vor Publikum präsentieren möchte. Auch Kritik kann jedermann üben. Wer lieber zuhören möchte, kann einfach am Montagabend um 20.00 in der Schwartzschen Villa erscheinen. Für Lesewillige gilt die unten stehende ausführliche Information (mündliche Anmeldung ab 19:30 Uhr).
*Unfortunately at the moment, it's only possible to present German texts. Unpublished texts that are already translated into German are highly welcome!*
## Was erwartet Sie?
Im Großen Salon der Schwartzsche Villa treffen Sie auf einen Kreis von Literaturbegeisterten, die Ihrem Text eine ernsthafte und fundierte Kritik spenden. Das Publikum wechselt. Es ist gemischt, geeint durch das Interesse an Texten.
Die Autorinnen und Autoren des Abends lesen aus ihren bislang unveröffentlichten Kurzgeschichten, lyrischen Texten, Erzählungen, Romanen, manchmal auch aus Theaterstücken. Die Autoren stellen nicht sich selbst, sondern ihre Texte der Kritik.
Wir verstehen uns als Arbeitsbühne. Deshalb wird bei uns nach den Lesungen nicht geklatscht.
Die Texte werden nach der Lesung des Autors auf handwerkliche Stärken und Schwächen „abgeklopft“. Es geht im Forum daher nicht um weltanschauliche Debatten. Im Idealfall hat der Autor/die Autorin nach einer Lesung und der Kritik verstanden, wo die Stärken und Schwächen seines Textes liegen, woran es seinem Text noch fehlt, was er ändern sollte und wo er bei seiner Überarbeitung ansetzen kann.
Der Abend endet gegen 22.00. Im Anschluss können Sie mit den Autoren im Café der Schwartzschen Villa noch ins Gespräch kommen und manches aus dem Literaturbetrieb erfahren. Wir sind im Kontakt auch mit namhaften Vertretern desselben.
Also – nicht gleich verschwinden! Dranbleiben.
Reden Sie mit den Forumianern!
## Sie möchten selbst lesen?
Wenn Sie selbst im Autorenforum lesen wollen, gibt es einige Dinge zu beachten. Wir bitten Sie sehr herzlich, sich mindestens einmal vor Ihrer ersten Lesung bei uns mit unseren Gegebenheiten vertraut zu machen. Ihren Lesewunsch können Sie dann ab 19.30 Uhr (Einlass) bei der Moderatorin oder dem Moderator eines Leseabends anmelden.
**Wir weisen ausdrücklich daraufhin, dass über die Annahme und Reihenfolge der Lesungen die jeweiligen Moderatoren entscheiden und es NICHT zwingend nach der Reihenfolge der Anmeldungen geht!**
In der Regel reicht die Zeit nur für drei Autoren je Abend und die Nachfrage ist oft recht hoch. Falls Sie einen lyrischen Text vortragen möchten, bringen Sie bitte mindestens 10 (zehn) Kopien mit, damit Ihr Publikum mitlesen kann. Die Kopien erhalten Sie selbstverständlich zurück.
# Wie üben wir Textkritik?
Nach der Idee von Maik Turni
## **Anschleichen**
**Wie wirkt der Text auf mich?** (Keine Angst vor Adjektiven! )
**Was habe ich gehört?** (Zusammenfassung (Nacherzählung))
**Was blieb unverstanden** (akustisch oder logisch)
## **Unter der Lupe**
**Was ist das für ein Text?**
(Prosa: Genre? Lyrik: Welche Art lyrischer Text?)
**Thema**
(Welches Thema berührt der Text? Hat der Autor sein Thema im Griff?
Ist es überzeugend/plausibel/gut recherchiert, vielleicht sogar zu faktenreich?)
**Figuren**
(Wie wirken die Figuren? Wer ist die Hauptfigur? Welches Problem hat die Hauptfigur?)
**Perspektive**
(Wie verhält sich die Erzählperspektive zum Thema / zu den Figuren?)
**Sprache**
(Welche Bilder sind stimmig / welche nicht?
Was lässt sich zum Rhythmus sagen?
Sind die Sätze syntaktisch und grammatikalisch korrekt?)
**Dramaturgie**
(Schafft der Text es, Spannung zu erzeugen? In welcher Reihenfolge werden die Dinge erzählt?)
**Bedeutung**
(Gelingt es dem Autor, die Bedeutung, die er seinem Text geben will, auch im Leser entstehen zu lassen?)
## **Klarspüler**
Fragen werden an den Text gestellt, nicht an den Autor!
Daher sollte der Text antworten.
## **Weichspüler**
Wird bei uns nicht verwendet.
Aber es gilt: Nicht der Autor wird kritisiert, sondern der Text!
Hart zum Text, sanft zum Autor!

Confessionals: Writing Through Shame and Fear of Being Seen
**Confessionals: Writing Through Shame and Fear of Being Seen**
with ***Djibril Sall***
for **LGBTQIA+ Queer Migrants**
**[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w27-2026)**
🔵
This writing workshop is an invitation to work with confession as a practice of release—something that you do for yourself and not under an authority. Together, we’ll use writing to move through shame and the fear of being seen, transforming what has been held tightly or silently into something you can shape, hold, and let go of. This is a space for experimentation, care, and risk, where confession becomes a tool for self-recognition rather than self-erasure.
**Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with experiences of migration and/or displacement.**
Queer people with experiences of migration and/or displacement in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments.
With the support of the **Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement.
✅ Our **Queer Bridges** program will continue to evolve and we are always happy to hear about your needs. If you are interested, you can send us an e-mail to stay informed about further updates.
**General Information**
**Participants**: This workshop is for all who identify as LGBTQ+ and have experienced migration and/or displacement. If you don’t share these experiences but are interested in joining please reach out to us first to see if space is available. We ask that all participants respect the program’s core focus and contribute to fostering an open respectful space.
**Registration**: This event has limited spots available. Registration through our website is therefore required.
**Language**: English every language is welcome.
**Cost:** The event is free of charge.

**Confessionals: Schreiben durch Scham und die Angst, gesehen zu werden**
mit ***Djibril Sall***
fur **LGBTQIA+ Queere Migranten**
##### [Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w27-2026/)
Dieser Schreibworkshop lädt dazu ein, Geständnis als eine Praxis der Befreiung und Selbstwahrnehmung statt des Urteils zu erforschen. Durch das Schreiben bewegen wir uns durch Scham, Verletzlichkeit und die Angst, gesehen zu werden, und schaffen Raum für Experimentieren, Fürsorge und Transformation.
**Queer Bridges: Verbindungen schaffen und Ressourcen für LGBTQIA+ Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung bereitstellen.**
Queere Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung in Berlin sehen sich in ihrem täglichen Leben oft mit besonderen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, die ihren Zugang zu unterstützenden Gemeinschaften und integrativen Umgebungen einschränken können.
Mit Unterstützung der **Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, haben wir das Programm Queer Bridges entwickelt, um diese Hürden zu überwinden. Wir bieten Ressourcen, Vernetzung und Unterstützung in einem einladenden Umfeld für queere Migrant\*innen und Geflüchtete durch unser spezielles Programm. Unser Ziel ist es, ein Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit zur lokalen LGBTQIA+ Community zu fördern und damit eine reibungslose Integration sowie eine verbesserte Lebensqualität für queere Menschen mit Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung zu ermöglichen.
✅ Unser **Queer Bridges** Programm wird sich stetig weiter entwickeln und wir freuen uns auch jederzeit von Euren Bedarfen zu hören. Bei Interesse könnt ihr uns eine E-Mail schicken, um über weitere Aktualisierungen informiert zu bleiben.
**Hinweise**
**Teilnehmende**: Dieser Workshop richtet sich an alle, die sich als LGBTQIA+ identifizieren und Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung erlebt haben. Wenn ihr diese Erfahrungen nicht teilt, aber dennoch an einer Teilnahme interessiert seid, meldet euch bitte zuerst bei uns, um zu klären, ob ein Platz frei ist. Wir bitten alle Teilnehmenden, den Schwerpunkt des Programms zu respektieren und dazu beizutragen, einen offenen, respektvollen Raum zu schaffen.
**Anmeldung**: Für dieses Event stehen begrenzte Plätze zur Verfügung. Eine Registrierung über unsere Website ist daher erforderlich.
**Sprache**: Englisch
**Kosten**: Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos.

Endlich gehört
Du bist immer die Hilfsbereite. Nie unbequem, aber innerlich am Limit. Das ändern wir.
Du kennst das Gefühl: Du sagst Nein & plötzlich bist Du die Schwierige. Du gibst alles & bekommst kaum etwas zurück.
Du fragst Dich warum Deine Grenzen nicht respektiert werden, obwohl Du doch eigentlich gar nicht so viel verlangst.
**Du bist nicht zu empfindlich. Du bekommst zu wenig.**
In diesem Workshop schauen wir gemeinsam warum das so ist & Du gehst mit einer Struktur nach Hause die aus Dir selbst kommt. Nicht mit einer Checkliste. Sondern mit Klarheit darüber was Du brauchst & einem Rahmen der dazu passt.
Begrenzte Teilnehmerzahl: 10 Plätze
Square Tomatoes and Robot Bees - Who decides?
You don't have to sign up-just stop by. Tea, coffee, water, beer, wine, and pizza will be available throughout the evening.
---
--
Most conversations about AI skip the part that is crucial: **who it's built for, who pays for it, and who doesn't get a say**.
This evening goes exactly there.
We start in 1960s California, where scientists bred a new kind of tomato: square, hard, machine-ready, and wiped out 82% of the state's tomato farms in the process. Farmworkers and small farmers sued the university behind the technology, arguing they were being forced to fund their own replacement. They lost. But the questions they raised never went away.
Today, researchers are using AI, robotics and gene editing to create tomatoes that can be pollinated by robots, crops designed for automated production systems, and even new traits engineered for consumer preferences. AI is having an impact on agriculture, food production, and labour, often with public money, rarely with public input. Sounds familiar?
**What to expect**
A 90-minute interactive evening:
* **Opening talk** connecting the tomato harvester story to today's AI developments
* **Live audience polling**
* Conversation with **Ildi Carlisle-Cummins** (California Institute for Rural Studies): storyteller, oral historian, and director of the Cal Ag Roots project, one of the organisations that grew out of the original lawsuit
* Open audience **discussion**
* **Informal networking** to close
**What you'll take away**
A sharper way to think about who controls the technologies influencing our food, our work, and our world, and what citizens can actually do when change feels inevitable.
If the phrase "square tomato" sounds too strange to be true, you're not alone. Even the TV detective [Mr. Monk couldn't believe his eyes](https://youtu.be/VtO-97pl7cA?is=VnMxtacAwL1IChub)!
**Free to attend, free of jargon, no expertise required.**
**Just bring your curiosity.**
*Hosted by [Save Our Seeds](http://www.saveourseeds.org/?utm_source=luma) and [Human-Future-Hub](https://humanfuturehub.org/?utm_source=luma) Berlin*
Tea, coffee, water, beer, wine, and pizza will be available throughout the evening.
AWS Women's User Group Berlin: June Event - AI Agents in Production
**The AWS Women’s User Group Berlin** is thrilled to invite you to our upcoming meetup sponsored by Storm Reply focused on **Building production-ready AI agents for real-world impact.**
Join us for a deep dive into how to build, observe, and evaluate AI agents at scale. You’ll also see how these ideas come to life in a real-world climate-smart agriculture solution that turns weather forecasts into actionable field guidance. Whether you’re building agentic systems today or planning what comes next, this meetup will give you practical insights into making AI agents work in production.
**Speaker Info**
**Keynote Talk**
**Speaker:** Tetiana Senna
**Position:** Team Lead / Senior Project Manager, Storm Reply
**Talk Title:** Trust, but Verify: Observability and Evaluations for AWS Agents
**Abstract:** Getting an AI agent to work in a demo is easy. Knowing whether it still works in production - after the next prompt change, the next model upgrade, the next edge case - is the hard part. Unit tests don't cover non-deterministic behavior, and manually reviewing a handful of runs doesn't scale.
This talk walks through the two practices that close that gap: observability (understanding what actually happened inside your agent) and evaluation (deciding whether the outcome was any good). We'll dig into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore's Observability and Evaluations capabilities, compare the proven evaluation approaches - built-in LLM-as-a-Judge evaluators for automatic quality monitoring, and custom evaluators for business-specific correctness checks - with a candid look at what each one is good for, where it falls short, and what it costs to run at scale. We'll also take a close look at AgentCore Optimization, AWS's newly previewed feature in this space.
**Applied Agentic AI Talk**
**Speakers:**
**Vidhu Mitra Malladi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming
**Chamika Hasanthi:** Senior Software Engineer, Yara Digital Farming
**Talk Title:** Weather Risk Intelligence Agent for farmers & Agronomist
Abstract: Unpredictable weather events — heavy rainfall, drought, frost, and heatwaves pose significant risk to crop yield and fertilizer efficiency. While forecast data is widely available, it is rarely translated into timely; field-level guidance farmers can act upon.
Using AWS AgentCore framework and AI capabilities, we can turn weather predictions into clear agronomic actions, supporting climate-smart agriculture at scale.
**You'l learn:**
* Implementation of the solution using AWS Agent Core framework
* Architecture of the project.

Free In-Person Event: Handle Self-Confidence & Motivation to Achieve Your Goals
This is an in-person meeting.

-Out-of-control unwanted emotions
-Low self-esteem

How to Get Over Losses and Betrayls & Build Lasting Relationships
Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships?
Are you 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!

Volunteer Opportunity
Open Shelter has teamed up again with Red White and Boom! Friday, July 3rd & we are looking for volunteers to run the event’s alcohol booths. Proceeds from sales go to the Open Shelter’s organization.
There are two available shifts: 12-6p & 5-11p.
There will be an ipad-like device to process transactions in addition to cash. Everything will be in bottles or cans, so transactions should be very easy. Must be 21+.
There are multiple beverage stations along the Civic Center Bridge. The stations are covered and also have beverage trucks next to them, so volunteers can cool off in the trucks.
As far as parking, it is suggested those who are coming from the east use the Columbus Commons Garage, and those from the west use the Belle Street Garage.
Harry from the Open Shelter will be your contact.
