Creative Code Stammtisch

Fri, Nov 6, 6:30 PM
From Creative Code Berlin
4.8

**⭐ DOORS OPEN AT 19:30. PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 8PM! ⭐** The Creative Code Stammtisch is a casual show-and-tell for artists, makers, designers, coders, performers, learners and anyone interested in the use of computing skills for artistic expression. The event is free and open to all, regardless of age, origin, gender or experience. Beginners and first-timers should feel especially welcome! You don't have to be a coder yourself 😃 HOW TO FIND US? Find Prachtsaal Studio by crossing the courtyard next to Cafe Augusta on Jonasstr. 22, 12053 Berlin. WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT? We start with quick introductions, then open the floor to anyone who wants to present something. There are usually around six 10-minute slots available, plus time for questions from the audience. First-timers are encouraged to share their work. Topics range from net art to computational design and interactive installations all the way to wearable electronics or generative poetry. If you’re wondering whether your own project might fit, take a look at the [Stammtisch archive](https://creativecodeberlin.github.io/Stammtisch/) to see what others have shared in the past. This event is *not* just for coders! New-media artists and anyone working with technology in their art are very welcome to share. If you enjoy art and/or technology, you’ll likely have a great time, and maybe even learn something new! BEGINNERS WELCOME! If you’re new to creative coding, you can find beginner-friendly resources at [creativecode.berlin/learn](https://creativecode.berlin/learn). THIS IS YOUR SPACE We do our best to create a welcoming environment for all people regardless of race, ethnicity, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or genetics. People from group generally underrepresented in open-source, art, and technology fields are warmly encouraged to come by. And if you know someone who might enjoy this meetup but isn’t sure it’s for them, let them know they’ll be welcome! SAFE SPACE POLICY We support the Berlin Code of Conduct: [berlincodeofconduct.org](http://berlincodeofconduct.org/) Please read and make sure you agree with its content. ACCESSIBILITY Prachtsaal Studio is located on an easy to access ground floor. We're very sorry to say that the bathrooms are not wheelchair accessible yet. DO I NEED TO SPEAK GERMAN? We speak mostly English so international guests are more than welcome! Our team also speaks French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Finnish and German... though language availability may vary depending on which organizers are present :) CONTACT RaphaĂ«l de Courville team@creativecode.berlin +49 (0) 176 70070572 or get in touch via [creativecode.berlin](https://creativecode.berlin/) *** The featured artwork of the month is by @ojelibalon.

Chinese äž­æ–‡ Chinesisch/German ćŸ·èŻ­ Deutsch Meetup! (Every 2 Weeks!)

Chinese äž­æ–‡ Chinesisch/German ćŸ·èŻ­ Deutsch Meetup! (Every 2 Weeks!)

Thu, Oct 29, 6:00 PM
From Dragon Descendants Chinese/German Culture Exchange
4.8

Hey fellow Dragons! ++++++++ Interested in Chinese/German? ++++++++ Learning Chinese/German and need to practice or find language-tandem partners? Interested in cultural exchange? Want to meet awesome internationals? 
Or just want to get tips on where to find good Chinese food in Berlin? Whatever the reason, come join us! The more the merrier: such is the Chinese way! ++++++++++++++++ New Website ++++++++++++++++ We have our own community website now. It's hosted in Germany with better privacy guidelines and allows us to have more features than we currently have here. https://www.dragon-descendants.de/ Please think about registering there too and if you are awesome, use the RSVP function there too. In the long run we do plan to migrate permanently to the new site. ++++++++++++++++ Our meetup structure ++++++++++++++++ Our meetup is relatively unstructured. Groups often form organically and evolve and move throughout the evening consisting of members learning Chinese/German, members who are fluent/native, and the rest who are here to socialize in whatever language they're comfortable with and jumping into whichever conversation they find themselves in. We try our best to fulfil everyone's expectations so we can all benefit from the meetup and have a good time; if you have any suggestions or ideas (such as outings!) please don't hesitate to let us know! :) +++ No time on Thursday's? +++ We meet every second Thursday, but we sometimes have other events, which are not regular and occur on different days/at different locations. Stay tuned for announcements! Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones :) Cheers & ć›žć€Žè§ Yimu & Xuedi

INNOQ Technology Day Meetup | Coding Agents & Outcome-Driven Architecture

INNOQ Technology Day Meetup | Coding Agents & Outcome-Driven Architecture

Thu, Nov 12, 5:30 PM
From INNOQ Technology Night Berlin
4.6

Am 12. November findet der **[INNOQ Technology Day](https://technologyday.innoq.com/)** statt, unsere kostenfreie Online-Konferenz rund um Softwarearchitektur, -entwicklung und digitale Produkte. Von 9 bis 18 Uhr stehen zwei Keynotes und 18 VortrĂ€ge in drei parallelen Tracks auf dem Programm. **Im Anschluss an das Tagesprogramm** laden wir Euch zu uns ins INNOQ-BĂŒro nach Berlin ein. Dort greifen wir zwei Themen vom Tag noch einmal auf. Danach habt Ihr bei Snacks und GetrĂ€nken Zeit, Euch mit den Speakern und den anderen Teilnehmenden auszutauschen. Johannes Rave und Aminata Sidibe bringen ihre Sessions vom Tag als Kurzvortrag mit und gehen dabei tiefer ins Thema. Wer online nicht dabei war, kann hier noch einmal reinhören und wer die Sessions tagsĂŒber schon gesehen hat, bringt gerne Fragen mit und vertieft die Themen mit uns vor Ort. **Ablauf:** **18:30 \|** Doors open **19:00 \|** Start der KurzvortrĂ€ge danach Diskussion & Networking **Zur Anmeldung:** Der Abend ist offen fĂŒr alle, **eine Teilnahme am Technology Day ist keine Voraussetzung**. Meldet Euch trotzdem hier ĂŒber Meetup an, auch wenn Ihr tagsĂŒber schon dabei wart. Dann wissen wir, mit wie vielen Leuten wir planen können. **+++ Die Talks +++** **No Constrain, No Gain: Struktur fĂŒr den Agent, Klarheit fĂŒr den Menschen, FlexibilitĂ€t fĂŒr das Unternehmen** Johannes Rave, INNOQ AI Coding Agents sind bemerkenswert gut darin, Code zu erzeugen. Ob dieser Code die tatsĂ€chlichen Anforderungen des Unternehmens widerspiegelt und ob er auch sechs Monate spĂ€ter noch sinnvoll ist, ist eine ganz andere Frage. Die Versuchung ist groß, das als Prompting-Problem zu behandeln und dem Agenten mehr Kontext, bessere Anweisungen und klarere Ziele zu geben. Ein oft ĂŒbersehener Hebel ist dagegen die Architektur. Wenn die DomĂ€nenlogik ihren eigenen, klar abgegrenzten Platz bekommt, getrennt von der technischen Infrastruktur um sie herum, passiert etwas Interessantes: Der Agent bleibt fokussiert, Menschen können tatsĂ€chlich prĂŒfen, was wichtig ist, und das Ganze bleibt Ă€nderbar, ohne dass alles neu geschrieben werden muss. Johannes Rave stellt einen Ansatz vor, wie man dorthin kommt und wie ein paar gut platzierte EinschrĂ€nkungen Freiheit schaffen. **Über Johannes:** *Johannes Rave ist Senior Consultant bei INNOQ. Er baut robuste LLM-gestĂŒtzte Produkte und verteilte Websysteme – mit Fokus auf RAG, semantische Suche und produktionsreife Umsetzung. BrĂŒckenbauer zwischen UX, Architektur und Betrieb.* **Mehr Wert, weniger Code: Warum gute Architektur bei NutzerbedĂŒrfnissen beginnt** Aminata Sidibe, INNOQ Software zu entwickeln war noch nie so einfach wie heute, und generative KI beschleunigt das zusĂ€tzlich. Was nĂŒtzt uns diese Geschwindigkeit aber, wenn wir nicht wissen, ob wir das richtige Problem lösen? In vielen Projekten steckt viel Energie im Output: Roadmaps, Tickets, Velocity, Releases. Dabei fehlt manchmal das gemeinsame Bild davon, fĂŒr wen wir eigentlich entwickeln und welchen Nutzen ein Feature haben soll. Aminata Sidibe zeigt, wie Outcome-Driven Architecture Teams hilft, sich auf das Wesentliche zu konzentrieren. **Über Aminata:** *Aminata Sidibe ist Principal Consultant bei INNOQ und verfĂŒgt ĂŒber langjĂ€hrige Erfahrung in der Umsetzung digitaler Produkte verschiedenster GrĂ¶ĂŸenordnungen. Ihre Expertise liegt in der Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion sowie der Zusammenarbeit in Teams. Aktuell fokussiert sie sich auf die Integration KĂŒnstlicher Intelligenz im Bereich der digitalen Produktentwicklung. Zu ihren zentralen Aufgaben gehören neben User Experience und Zusammenarbeit auch die technologische Weiterentwicklung und der Umgang mit kulturellem Wandel in Unternehmen.* **+++ INNOQ Technology Day +++** Zum Technology Day am 12. November könnt Ihr Euch ĂŒbrigens noch kostenfrei anmelden. Das komplette Programm mit allen Sessions findet Ihr [hier](https://technologyday.innoq.com/). 👉 Wer es abends nicht zu uns ins BĂŒro schafft, kann sich Johannes’ und Aminatas VortrĂ€ge auch tagsĂŒber online ansehen: * ["No Constrain, No Gain"](https://technologyday.innoq.com/programm/no-constrain-no-gain), Johannes Rave, **14:00 Uhr** * ["Mehr Wert, weniger Code: Warum gute Architektur bei NutzerbedĂŒrfnissen beginnt"](https://technologyday.innoq.com/programm/mehr-wert-weniger-code-warum-gute-architektur-bei-nutzerbeduerfnissen-beginnt), Aminata Sidibe, **15:00 Uhr** Wir freuen uns auf Euch!
