**Max. 8 participants:** [Register via my website](https://playfight.my-power.at/events/intimacy-may-3-2026/) **Intimacy Without Sexuality — Playfight Workshop** **ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP:** **Playfight is a laboratory for real-life situations.** In this session, you’ll explore and shape **what intimacy means for you** in a clearly non-sexual space. • What kinds of closeness do you long to experience in a space free from romantic or sexual expectations? • How can you **experiment with emotional and physical intimacy** in ways that feel warm, authentic, and grounded in clear **boundaries.** Through movement, games, and playful physical interactions, we’ll practice: • **normalizing intimacy** in its different shapes as part of everyday human connection • **noticing** and welcoming what arises — including attraction or discomfort — **without acting** on it • staying present and grounded in connection. At a deeper level, we touch another paradox: We long for closeness — and we need clarity and safety. Can you gently open to **build trust, comfort, and meaningful bonds** with others, while staying **true to yourself**? **WHAT TO EXPECT:** ***🕒 Sunday, May 3rd, 16:00 – 19:30*** ***📍Golden Ape Studio, Schüttelstraße 37/8 · Wien*** 16:00 – Doors Open 16:15 – Start 19:30 – End Grounding, warm-up games, Playfight dynamics focused on the topic of the day, sharing circles. **Afterwards, feel free to stay, share snacks, and hang out together. 🌿** **ABOUT THE FACILITATOR:** Hi, I’m **Marco Moriggi**, I’m an [Coach (Lebens- und Sozialberater in training)](https://coach.my-power.at/) and a Workshop Facilitator.

This time we're going to explore the documented experiences and archives of Latin American migrants who came to Vienna from 30 different countries and several generations since 1945. We'll look at the city from their perspectives throughout the last 80 years. We'll also witness how they did influence the Viennese culture their own way as they navigated two separate homes and worlds. More details in the website [https://www.wienmuseum.at/viena_latina_en](https://www.wienmuseum.at/viena_latina_en) Tickets are highly likely to be free as it's going to be the first Sunday of the month 😉

**Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wien. Lachflash statt Tatort – 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 überlegst, ob du dich mit Netflix aufs Sofa wirfst oder dich schon auf den Montag vorbereitest? Falsch gedacht! 😏 Wien hat jetzt eine bessere Antwort: **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic**. Jeden Sonntag um 18:00 wird *The Comedy Pub* zur Bühne für deutschsprachige Stand-up-Comedy – roh, echt, witzig, manchmal absurd und immer überraschend. Der perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang für alle, die nicht aufhören wollen zu lachen. **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist das große Finale des Wochenendes. Hier bekommst du einen wilden Mix aus **Newcomern**, die ihre ersten Schritte auf der Bühne 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 – und genau das sorgt für die lautesten Lacher des Abends. Mit **vielen Comedians pro Show** (oft mehr als 10!) erwartet dich ein abwechslungsreicher Abend: * Überraschende neue Stimmen, die dich mit ganz frischem Humor überraschen * Kreative Experimente, die kein Mainstream-Comedy-Club sich trauen würde * 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 – 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 – all das beeinflusst, wie die Comedians ihre Jokes entwickeln. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist das Herzstück der Stand-up-Szene. Es ist keine perfekt inszenierte Show – 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 heißt: * Manchmal knallt ein Joke sofort – und alle feiern. * Manchmal floppt eine Pointe – und genau daraus wird ein unvergesslicher Moment. * Immer aber ist es spannend, nahbar und authentisch. Wenn du echte Comedy erleben willst – ohne Filter, ohne Drehbuch, ohne Sicherungsnetz – dann ist ein Open Mic genau dein Ding. Und **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist Wiens neue Adresse dafür am Sonntag. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Das Zuhause der Stand-up-Comedy in Wien Die Show findet im **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) statt – 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 gemütlicher Irish Pub mit Drinks, Snacks und freundlicher Atmosphäre. Unten im Altbaukeller – oder im offenen Pub-Bereich – wird jede Woche Stand-up gespielt, getestet und gefeiert. Die Location ist bekannt für ihr **nahbares, internationales Publikum** und ihr warmes, intimes Ambiente. Und das Beste: mit der U-Bahn-Station **Kettenbrückengasse (U4)** direkt vor der Tür bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Geschehen. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Comedy lebt von Community. Damit möglichst viele Menschen Stand-up erleben können, ist der Eintritt frei. Aber: Lachen ist wertvoll – 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. ## 🎟️ Regeln fürs Publikum Damit die Show für alle ein Erlebnis wird, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge: * Sei pünktlich – die Türen öffnen 17:30, Showstart ist 18:00. * Hör zu und respektiere die Bühne – Comedians geben hier alles. * Lachen ist Pflicht – und zwar ohne Zurückhaltung! * Kein Heckling – die Gags kommen von den Profis. 😉 * Spenden sind willkommen – support your local comedy! ## 🎉 Warum Sonntag? Viele denken: Sonntagabend = Couch, Serien, früh ins Bett. Aber warum so trist? **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist der perfekte Gegenentwurf: eine Show voller Energie, Lachen und Überraschungen – bevor der Montag wieder ernst wird. * Es ist der **perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang** – 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 regelmäßige deutsche Comedy-Show am Sonntag in Wien – im einzigen Comedy Club der Stadt. Kurz gesagt: Sonntag gehört jetzt nicht mehr dem Montagsblues, sondern dem Lachflash. #LachflashComedy #ComedyWien #StandupWien #OpenMicWien #DeutschComedy #WienLacht #ComedyNightWien #ComedyClubWien #StandupComedyWien #LachenInWien #ComediansWien #LiveComedyWien #ComedyFansWien #ComedySzeneWien #ComedyShowWien #WienEvents #WienNightlife #ComedyLovers #WienOpenMic #GermanComedy #ComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaEvents #ViennaNightlife #ViennaOpenMic #ViennaStandup #ViennaFun #ViennaUnderground #ComedyLifeWien #WienHumor #StandupSceneWien #LaughsInVienna #ComedySpotWien #FunnyInWien #ViennaLaughs #ViennaLOL #SundayVienna #WienSonntag #WeekendFinale #ComedyWeekendVienna #SonntagComedy

Beach volleyball session for players with solid beach volleyball skills. **No beginners, please.** 🏖️ **How We Play** There is demand for both 2vs2 and 3vs3, so we organize the courts in mixed formats to satisfy as many preferences as possible. * One court focused on **2vs2** (4-6 players, sets to 15, rotation after set) * One court focused on **3vs3** (6 players) * One flexible court (**2vs2 or 3vs3**, depending on demand) We’ll monitor how this setup works and adjust when needed. Over the course of the season, the format may change (for example, shifting towards more or even exclusively 2vs2). ✅ **What We Expect From Players** * Solid and safe beach volleyball fundamentals * Openness and skill to play **both 2vs2 or 3vs3**, if required * A good level of **self‑organization on court and during event** (This is a group of adults, not a guided training or childcare setting) 💰 **Costs** €8–10 per person, depending on the number of participants. ❗ **Cancellations** Cancellations within 24 hours of the event must be paid, unless a suitable replacement is joining. Waiting list: regulars are preferred, but confirmed players stay confirmed. 🤝 **Fair Play** Respectful behavior only — no insults, no disrespect, no arguments.

What better way to spend this 27°C afternoon than on the Donauinsel together: * practicing languages * some activity games, * and picnicking (if you bring some food) Be on time so you won't miss miss the Czech delicacies that Jitka (Judith) is bringing :) .

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
