This Saturday we’re meeting at Bogatell for social beach games. We’ll set up a volleyball net as the main activity and also bring spikeball, frisbee and some cards. You can rotate in and out of games or just relax and talk between rounds. No pressure to play nonstop. The goal is simple: active people, good energy, and a relaxed social atmosphere. Volleyball level: Beginner to intermediate. You don’t need to be amazing, but you should know the basic rules and be able to keep a rally going. This works best when everyone can play at least a little. This is not a competitive tournament and not a party event. It’s a balanced, respectful space to meet people and enjoy the beach. Bring: – Water – Towel – Optional drink – Sunscreen – Good energy We’ll meet around [Bogatell Beach](). Exact spot will be posted on the day depending on space. Limited spots to keep it enjoyable and well balanced.

We are constantly being warned, but we seldom heed warnings. Cautioned about authoritarian leaders, climate change, technological dystopias, or other catastrophes, we fail to take action or even take them seriously. Too often warnings are dismissed—much like the artists, scientists, environmentalists, and intellectuals who deliver them. Why don’t we listen? **[Tickets from 10 Euros - must be purchased here.](https://luma.com/iz6eyzpf?utm-source-MEETUP)** ​In this Growth Lab LIVE session, Santiago Zabala asks us to think of warnings as “signs from the future.” He argues that warnings—as distinct from predictions—invite us to see the possibility of a radical break from the present. Predictions tell us to submit to the inevitable, but warnings ask us to take part in shaping a different future. ​**About the speaker:** ​[Santiago Zabala ](https://www.santiagozabala.com/)is ICREA Research Professor of Philosophy at the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona. He is the author of a number of books, including *Why Only Art Can Save Us: Aesthetics and the Absence of Emergency* (2017) and *Being at Large. Freedom in the Age of Alternative Facts* (2020), and most recently, *Signs from the Future. A Philosophy of Warnings* (2025). Zabala has also written opinion articles for publications including the *New York Times*, *Al Jazeera*, and the *Los Angeles Review of Books*.
