​ClawCamp Berlin Edition ​

**ClawCamp Berlin** is a hands-on AI builder session bringing together people who want to actually build with AI rather than just talk about it. ​Part of a global chapter-based network inspired by a proven model that ran 350+ events worldwide, **ClawCamp** runs on a straightforward idea: the best way to learn AI is to build alongside other people, in the same room, right now. ​ ​At this session, expect real workshops where you install, configure, and ship, not just slides and screenshots. Whether you are picking up new skills, working through a build challenge, or showing off something you made, the format is designed for participation. ​Every ClawCamp also feeds into a shared curriculum library that any chapter can use and remix, so what gets built here does not stay here. ​ ​ClawCamp Berlin is made possible thanks to the generous support of our ecosystem partners: * ​**Neo4j** – Supporting logistics, volunteer coordination, and developer advocacy to power the local ecosystem. * ​**Cognee** – Providing developer community backing and hands-on organizational support. * ​**Rine** – Enabling the agentic economy through identity, discovery and communication. * ​**Nebius** – Providing credits for all builders for the Nebius TokenFactory, supported by the local Nebius Fellow. * ​**CODE University of Applied Sciences** – Our venue partner, providing their dynamic space at Donaustraße 44 to help foster Berlin's tech community. * ​**AI Agents Berlin** – The city's leading event series driving the convergence of agentic AI and blockchain. *** # ​**​🌍 About ClawCamp Summer Camp** ​**ClawCamp Summer Camp** is an international, decentralized series of events taking place around the world from June–August 2026, focused on personal agents, AI workflows, and emerging agent technologies. ​Throughout the summer, ClawCamp events will take place across San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York City, Paris, Berlin, Morocco, Milan, Barbados, and additional locations worldwide. ​In collaboration with **[FutureCaribbean.com](https://futurecaribbean.com/?utm_source=luma)** and a growing network of global partners and organizers, the series culminates with **SF ClawCamp Summer Camp** — a flagship, week-long gathering in San Francisco taking place August 1–9, 2026. ​🔗 Join the SF Summer Camp Passport here: [lu.ma/clawcamp-passport](https://lu.ma/clawcamp-passport) 🔗 Join the Global Summer Camp Passport here: [lu.ma/clawcamp-global-passport](https://lu.ma/clawcamp-global-passport) 🔗 Visit [ClawCamp.us](https://clawcamp.us/?utm_source=luma) for the latest updates Location CODE University of Applied Sciences

August Meetup: Interactive Audio

On the 4th of August we will host the next iteration of our monthly Audio Developer Meetup, where **Robyn Pacetti** from [Protagonists!](https://protagonists.com/) will be sharing their journey of creating a new kind of interactive audio experience. For our short talk, Fernando Garcia will present their latest research on detecting AI-generated content in hybrid music mixtures. As always, there will be a chance to network over drinks and pizza. Anyone interested in Audio development is welcome! Doors open at 18:00, talks start at 18:15. Please note: Attendance is **strictly limited** to people who have RSVP'd. **Long talk details** **A journey to create interactive, imaginary audio worlds** **\- Robyn Pacetti** What if we could explore imaginary worlds without looking at a screen? Explore environments, engage with characters, be the protagonist — interact with an imaginary world you don't just listen to, but move through and shape through your choices. The founder of Protagonists! talks about her journey creating a new kind of interactive audio experience: the vision, the goals, how it works, what they've built so far, some of the challenges, and what doors this new kind of experience might open — for people and for the audio space. **About the speaker** Robyn Pacetti is the Founder of Protagonists!, an early-stage bootstrapped venture actively building a new kind of interactive audio entertainment: imaginary worlds you step into and shape through your choices — ScreenFree, no graphics. It's a return to the oldest way humans have told stories — by voice, with the listener imagining the world into being — but with agency, so you don't just listen, you act. After 25 years in the games industry (Amazon, Ubisoft, Wooga), Robyn now works at the frontier of interactive entertainment. **Short talk details** **How Much AI Is in This Track? Detecting AI-Generated Content in Hybrid Music Mixtures - Fernando Garcia** AI-generated music is reshaping the music industry. By early 2026, it made up around 44% of daily uploads on Deezer, and studies suggest most listeners can't tell it apart from human-made recordings. This has driven a major research effort on automatic detection, almost all of which asks one binary question: is this track AI or human? State-of-the-art detectors now hit over 99% accuracy on that question. But that isn't how AI actually shows up in modern production. Producers use it as a modular tool: an AI drum loop combined with a synthetic bassline and a human singer's voice. The result is hybrid material that's neither fully human nor fully AI, exactly the case the binary framing can't describe. This talk covers Fernando's work reframing detection for that reality. Instead of a yes/no label, they treat it as a regression problem: estimating a continuous AI energy ratio, the fraction of a track's acoustic energy that comes from AI stems. Fernando will explain why these detectors work at all (they exploit subtle spectral fingerprints left by neural audio codecs), and show how a model trained to estimate that ratio reveals patterns a binary detector misses entirely. The broader takeaway: near-perfect binary accuracy is not evidence that a detector is ready for realistic, mixed-content music. As AI becomes a normal part of production, the question worth asking isn't whether a track is AI, but how much. **About the speaker** Fernando Garcia de la Cruz is ML Engineer at seeqnc, working on AI detection. His interests range across generative models, music information retrieval, and real-time audio software, with a focus on building practical tools for musicians and technologists. He holds an MSc in Sound and Music Computing from the Music Technology Group (MTG), Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, and a BSc in Electronics Engineering from Instituto Politécnico Nacional in Mexico City. He began his career as a software and data engineer in consultancy before moving into audio and music research, working on real-time audio tools and libraries at Dolby Laboratories, AI-generated music detection at BMAT, audio plugins at the MTG with the Essentia library, and most recently as a research intern at Sony CSL Paris. He has also spoken at the Audio Developer Conference and contributes to the Sound of AI community.
