## What we’re about
Buongiorno a tutti. Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille.

Aperitivo “fotografico”. Istantanee di un sogno realizzato 📷
**Il tema della serata** 📌
Camilla ci porta con sè nel dietro le quinte della vita del fotografo (termine che, però, le va stretto).
Dai primi scatti, realizzati nella propria stanza, di una ragazza adolescente timida ed insicura, al successo a livello internazionale, realizzando il proprio sogno di scattare per il National Geographic.
Un viaggio fra le difficoltà e gli ostacoli di un percorso professionale che ha portato Camilla a realizzare il proprio sogno.
Una storia che ci fornirà spunti di riflessione, consigli pratici e principi da applicare in ambiti anche diversi da quello prettamente artistico.
**Il nostro ospite 🎙️**
**Camilla Ferrari**— Camilla Ferrari (nata nel 1992) è una fotografa e Visual Artist milanese.
Il suo lavoro unisce approccio documentaristico e poesia visiva, combinando fotografie e brevi video immersivi per esplorare la percezione, il confine tra sogno e realtà e gli aspetti nascosti della vita quotidiana.
I suoi lavori sono stati pubblicati da **National Geographic**, **The New York Times**, **NPR**, **Artsy** e **Domus**. Ha inoltre collaborato con aziende come Apple, Lamborghini, Canon e Sony Music. Nel 2025 è stata speaker al **TEDx** Conegliano, intervenendo sul tema “Invisible”.
**Format e Agenda 📋**
L'evento è a **numero chiuso** — pochi posti, location giusta, dialogo vero.
* **18:45** · Apertura porte e benvenuto.
* **19:00 - 19.50** · Intervento dell'ospite in forma aperta. Nessun copione, nessuna lezione, solo conversazione autentica e dialogo diretto con l'audience.
* **A seguire** · Networking libero
🥂 *Prima consumazione e light aperitivo inclusi. Ulteriori drink e food disponibili alla carta.*
***
Ti aspettiamo per una serata densa di idee, spunti inaspettati e persone nuove che vale la pena conoscere. 💡
*L'unica cosa che ti chiediamo: puntualità. Per rispetto del nostro ospite, della location e delle altre persone che hanno scelto di partecipare. See you soon! 👋*
Mobility, Yoga & Breath – Milan Meetup
I’m Raz a movement and yoga teacher with over 10 years of experience studying and practicing in India, the birthplace of yoga. I’ve taught internationally and worked with people from many backgrounds, helping them move with greater ease, awareness, and confidence.
I’ve recently made Milan my home, and as an international teacher now based here, I would love to build a welcoming community through regular movement, breath, and mindful practice.
These sessions are especially designed for people navigating daily modern life long hours at a desk, office work, stress, and tension from sitting or repetitive movement.
⸻
What to expect
These sessions blend:
\* Mobility work to improve joint health, coordination, and ease of movement
\* Flexibility training to safely release tension from daily posture and gradually increase range of motion
\* Breathwork & mindfulness to regulate the nervous system and support mental clarity and stress relief
No experience or flexibility is required — the practice is fully adaptable to all levels.
⸻
About the class
Each 60-minute session is a complete guided practice designed to help you feel better in your body — not only during the class, but in your daily life.
We move through:
\* Gentle warm-up and joint preparation
\* Controlled mobility sequences to counteract stiffness from sitting and office work
\* Deep stretching targeting common tight areas (hips, back, shoulders, neck)
\* Breath awareness to reduce stress and reset the mind after a busy day
\* Guided relaxation to integrate the practice and calm the nervous system
The approach is slow, mindful, and progressive, focusing on quality of movement rather than intensity or performance.

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
