From Melbourne Social

4.9

Join me for a Saturday morning nature documentary on the giant screen! We're heading along to see Wild Asia 3D at IMAX Melbourne on Saturday 3 October. It's a great way to catch some spectacular wildlife footage in 3D and meet a few new people at the same time. We'll meet outside the IMAX Melbourne gates at 10:00am to say hello, then head inside at 10:10am to find seats before the documentary starts at 10:20am. The meetup wraps up when the film finishes, at around 11:05am. Seating for documentaries is unallocated, so arriving on time gives us the best chance of sitting together. This is a casual social meetup so we can head along together. It isn't run by or affiliated with IMAX Melbourne. Please book your own ticket directly with IMAX Melbourne. An RSVP here doesn't include entry. **Who this is for** * Anyone who loves wildlife, nature documentaries or the big-screen IMAX experience * People looking for a relaxed, low-key weekend morning outing * Solo attendees are very welcome, and plenty of people come on their own **Links** * Meetup start point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/jBTeWUUmTjwMvNit5 * Wild Asia 3D: https://web.imaxmelbourne.com.au/films/Wild-Asia-3D/HO00000593 * Tickets: https://web.imaxmelbourne.com.au/order/showtimes/IMAX-23327/tickets * Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScWg4_mvVA0 **Timeline** * 10:00am – Meet outside the IMAX Melbourne gates and say hi * 10:10am – Head inside the IMAX building and get seated * 10:20am – Documentary starts * \~11:05am – Documentary ends and meetup finishes **Tickets / cost** * Please buy your own ticket for the 10:20am session using the ticket link above, and check current prices there * Booking ahead is recommended, as sessions can fill up * A Meetup RSVP is not a ticket and doesn't guarantee entry **Bring** * Your ticket **Expect** * Vibe: Relaxed, friendly and low-key * Group style: A quick hello before the film, then we watch together * Seating: Unallocated, so we'll try to sit together but can't guarantee it **Important notes** * Please arrive by 10:00am if you'd like to sit with the group, as seating is unallocated * If you're running late, head straight inside with your ticket so you don't miss the start * This meetup is organised independently and isn't run by, affiliated with or endorsed by IMAX Melbourne.

Gravity 3D at IMAX Melbourne

Sun, Oct 11, 7:15 AM

From Melbourne Social

4.9

Join me for *Gravity* in 3D on the giant screen at IMAX Melbourne on Sunday 11 October. It's one of those films that really belongs in a cinema this size — the kind of thing that's worth leaving the couch for. We'll meet outside the IMAX Melbourne gates at 6:15pm for a quick hello, head in together around 6:25pm to get seated, and the film starts at 6:35pm. It should wrap up around 8:15pm, and that's where the meetup finishes. This is just a casual social group going along together — it isn't run by, affiliated with, or endorsed by IMAX Melbourne. Please book your own ticket directly with them; an RSVP here is not a ticket and doesn't include entry. **Who this is for** * Anyone who enjoys big-screen cinema and doesn't want to go on their own * People who are happy with a relaxed, low-key meetup — we say hi before, watch a film, and part ways after * Coming solo? Very welcome. Most people do, and that's the whole point **Links** * Meetup start point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/nheDYkgFXyMURvzc8 * Tickets / session info: https://web.imaxmelbourne.com.au/films/GRAVITY-3D/HO00000113 * Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JML-WzLUNmg **Timeline** * 6:15pm – Meet outside the IMAX Melbourne gates and say hello * 6:25pm – Head inside and get seated * 6:35pm – Film starts * \~8:15pm – Film ends and the meetup finishes **Tickets / cost** * Book your own ticket directly through IMAX Melbourne using the link above. * I'm in seat E20. If you'd like to sit near the group, pick a seat close to that one when you book. * Book early if you can — popular sessions can sell out, and seats near mine will go first. **Transport** * IMAX Melbourne is in Carlton, right by Melbourne Museum and Carlton Gardens. * Trams along Nicholson and Rathdowne Streets stop nearby, and Parliament Station is a walk away through the gardens. * There is paid parking under the museum if you're driving — check current rates yourself before you rely on it. **Expect** * Difficulty: none — it's a movie * Pace: relaxed, with a short catch-up before the film * Vibe: friendly and low-pressure, no need to know anyone * Group style: we sit together where seating allows, and there's no obligation to stay and chat afterwards **Important notes** * Please book and pay for your own ticket directly with IMAX Melbourne. * This meetup isn't organised by or affiliated with IMAX Melbourne — I've just arranged for a few of us to go along together. * Please arrive by 6:15pm so we can get in and seated before the film starts. If you're running late, head straight in — I'd rather you catch the film than miss the start looking for us. * Session times can change at the venue's discretion, so double-check your booking on the day. * Follow cinema rules and staff instructions, and please keep phones away once the film starts. * If your plans change, please update your RSVP so numbers stay clear.

3 Oct: Figurine Painting and Friends-Social

Sat, Oct 3, 3:00 AM

From Hue&Crew: Figurine Painting with new friends🎨

**✨Are you tired of making ‘how are you’ friends? This event is for you!✨** 🎨What better way to build and deepen connections than through a fun activity like **Figurine painting**! There are many social events but it isn’t easy to feel connected to someone in a large group setting. I am super extroverted yet found myself walking home after a great social feeling more lonely, because of all the superficial connections made. I started Hue&Crew to help people build their next close-friend circle based on age, personality and interest! 🎨**What to Expect** This isn’t a big mixer event, every event has a limit of 6 people per table and a fishbowl full of conversation starters to help people get started! We move around Melbourne's many beautiful cafes weekly to keep things fresh! 🎨**Notice before you sign up:** As the events are really small and it might take some time to form a group with similar interests, we will inform you when there is a suitable group for you! **RSVP now:** [https://forms.gle/4MN6oygujee9qmej9](https://forms.gle/4MN6oygujee9qmej9) **Take a look at our instagram page to see past public events**👇 [https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXY8PXADXsm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXY8PXADXsm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==)

Products, Prototypes and Pipelines

Thu, Oct 8, 6:30 AM

From Melbourne BizApps User Group

4.8

Products, Prototypes and Pipelines: Adopting AI Across the Software Delivery Lifecycle Most AI conversations in the Power Platform and Dynamics community stop at chatbots and Copilot agents. This session goes further: how do you actually embed AI across the software delivery lifecycle to solve hard, real-world operational problems, not just demo-ware? Join us for a hands-on session from three practitioners who've built this across logistics, telecommunications infrastructure and robotics manufacturing before bringing it into Microsoft delivery. What you'll get: • A practical look at where AI genuinely accelerates the SDLC, and where it doesn't • Lessons from operational environments where tools have to hold up under real pressure, not just pass a demo • A T-shaped consultant-developer's view on shipping software that actually solves the business problem, not just the ticket Speakers: Jason O'Brien - Path Engineer designing and delivering Power Platform and Copilot Studio solutions for complex, real-world operations. Years inside logistics and transport before moving into technology, building with an operator's mindset. Nick Kerr-Bell - Path Engineer, consultant and developer building Power Platform and Copilot Studio solutions. Over a decade in telecommunications infrastructure and capital projects, leading design teams and embedding standards and governance. Jacob Doogue - Co-founder and CTO, leading technical solutioning and consulting and building teams of T-shaped consultant-developers. His path from field engineering to robotics manufacturing to technology strategy gives him a rare cross-functional view, with a focused belief that AI and the Microsoft stack are only as good as the process thinking behind them.
