WRITE CLUB: one hour of silent writing (or reading) in the company of others

WRITE CLUB: one hour of silent writing (or reading) in the company of others

The first rule of WRITE CLUB is that you do not talk ***during*** WRITE CLUB. This very simple meetup is based on the premise that public and peer accountability enables more productive writing than sitting at home and getting distracted by the fridge. We will write/read for an hour in silence. (I will be writing thought experiments for my other meetup group: [THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBLIC](https://www.meetup.com/thought-experiments-in-pubs)) If you'd like to hang out afterwards, or if you prefer just to hang out, I have another event immediately afterwards in the same place :-) You can find that here: [HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTHBANK](https://www.meetup.com/experimentsin/events/316536684) And if you'd like to finish the evening with a dance, there is a free social salsa meetup just outside The Southbank Centre just afterwards. More info [here](https://www.instagram.com/salserosfriends/). **This event will take place in the foyer of The Southbank Centre.** You can find us by looking out for: * A tote bag with WRITE CLUB sewn onto it * My T-Shirt, which will have HANGING OUT embroidered on the back of it * Other writers - who may be spread out across the centre. They will have white pieces of paper with the WRITE CLUB stamp at the top of the page. There are plenty of places to buy refreshments, but you can also bring your own if you prefer. [WHATSAPP GROUP](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BpMwnRev0H237KMx4uPnek) [INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/experimentsingroupwisdom) [SUBSTACK](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) Looking forward to meeting and writing with you :-) Bonny

HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTH BANK

HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTH BANK

Fri, Oct 16, 7:00 PM
From MORE FROM THE TEiP COMMUNITY
4.9

Inspired by Sheila Liming's 2023 book, Hanging Out, this event is about "*daring to do nothing much, and even more than that, about daring to do it in the company of others*." If you're curious, you can read more about my rationale for the event [here](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/hanging-out), and how our pilot event went [here](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/it-worked). This will be the 7th month in a row of 'HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTHBANK' - it's going well! **This event will take place in the foyer of The Southbank Centre.** You can find us by looking out for: * Me - I will be wearing a black T-shirt with HANGING OUT written on the back * Our table - we usually gather at the tall tables in the Festival Bar & Kitchen on Level 2. Our table will have a sign on it 'HANGING OUT' (see attached photos). There are plenty of places to buy refreshments, but you can also bring your own if you prefer. If you feel like using this event as a carrot for some creative work, please join us an hour earlier for [WRITE CLUB](https://www.meetup.com/experimentsin/events/316536674) \- an hour of silent writing/reading in the same location\. And if you'd like to finish the evening with a dance, there is a free social salsa meetup just outside The Southbank Centre just afterwards. More info [here](https://www.instagram.com/salserosfriends/). [WHATSAPP GROUP](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FgGCrGc8TNzF8q7lvwozbR) [INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/experimentsingroupwisdom) [SUBSTACK](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) Looking forward to meeting and hanging out with you :-) Bonny

This event is full. Please join the waitlist if you'd like to be notified if spaces become available: **[WAITLIST](https://thoughtexperiments.kit.com/waitlistteipstpancras-dreams)** Open minded discussions and the opportunity to learn from each other ❤️ Meetup frequently glitches so I've created a backup: **[TEiP NEWS](https://thoughtexperiments.kit.com/36b38902fa)** This episode will explore the topic of 'DREAMS' by way of three original thought experiments by special guest author, Hamza They will be posted in the comments below on the day of the event. We'll meet at the beautiful Betjeman Arms in St Pancras Station. Spaces are limited and tickets sell out fast, so get your ticket early if you want to be there! See what these events are like: [@thoughtexperimentsinpublic](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpublic) **The idea:** A chance to meet and talk meaningfully about thought provoking topics. **How we'll do it** (timings approximate): * 7:00pm - Arrive at The Betjeman Arms. You can access the pub either from the street (entrance to the right of The St Pancras Hotel entrance) or via St Pancras Station (entrance from the upstairs train platforms). We'll be in the private dining room - ask at the bar if you can't find us. * Organise ourselves into small groups (3-4 people per group) * Have a look at the **thought experiments** (announced on the day of the event) * 7:15 - First rotation begins - Talk about the first thought experiment, but feel free to veer off topic. * 7:35 - Optional reshuffle: swap groups, move on to the second thought experiment. * 8:00 - Optional reshuffle: swap groups, move on to the third thought experiment. * 8:25pm - Wrap up - hear about upcoming events, feedback/requests for future meetups. * 8:30 Meetup ‘ends’. But feel free to carry on conversations. We have the room until 10pm and usually a lot of us stay until then :-) **Notes on the general atmosphere**: * The vibe is to let conversation flow rather than stick strictly to one topic. * While we'd like to talk about 'meaningful things', we also see the value in lighter topics, so don't worry about not being 'deep' enough! * Feel free to suggest ideas for future Thought Experiments in Pubs meetup groups, both in terms of structure and topics to discuss. **Where we'll meet**: This group will be at The Betjeman Arms. The nearest Tube station is King's Cross St. Pancras. You can access the pub either from the street (entrance to the right of The St Pancras Hotel entrance) or via St Pancras Station (entrance from the upstairs train platforms). We'll be in the private dining room - ask at the bar if you can't find us. **Who should come**: Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in Philosophy, it is about *doing* philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality... etc.... I'm so looking forward to meeting & talking with you in this beautiful location.

A special collaboration between **TEiP** and **Debate London**... We will explore 'debate' through the lens of philosophy and 'philosophy' through the lens of debate in two special events: PART 1 (held previosuly): On the 14th of September, Debate London came to TEiP and we discussed three thought experiments on the theme of 'DEBATE' PART 2 (this event): On the 14th of October, TEiP will visit Debate London to participate in a series of debate games designed to provoke light, fun and interesting conversations to bring peoplee together through open dialogue. **THIS EVENT** We'll meet at Debate London's Whitechapel Venue, the beautiful White Hart right next to Whitechapel Station. We'll explore ideas around modern dating & relationships by way of simple questions which invite attendees to discuss their thoughts, experiences and any fun ideas or anecdotes that might pop up along the way! The session will be lead by Debate London Founder Michael Pautsch with a few fun topics to kick things off as the night builds to either a fun showcase debate based on the answers you all provide on the night. Spaces are limited and tickets are likely to sell out fast, so get your ticket early if you want to be there!

You can access the pub from the main road via any of their 3 entrances. We will be upstairs in the private bar space. * Organise ourselves into small groups (4-6 people per group) * Get to know the people around you and settle in for some light hearted topics. * 7:15 - First rotation begins - conversation starters. These topics are designed to get us talking about some light & fun ideas. but feel free to veer off topic if that's where the conversation takes you. * 7:35 - Optional reshuffle: swap groups, move on to the second "debate" * 8:00 - Showcase debate building from the earlier topics or some more table debates depending on how the room feels. * 8:45pm - Wrap up - hear about upcoming events, feedback/requests for future meetups. * 9:00PM Meetup ‘ends’ and the post event hang-out begins. Feel free to carry on conversations.

The nearest Tube station is Whitechapel station, but its also a short walk from Bethnal Green. We will be in the upstairs private bar area, just follow the posters for the event :) **Who should come**: Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation.
