Welcome to the Open Security Conference (osco), the people-centred international gathering for everyone interested in cybersecurity. Join us 5-8 November 2026 in Rückersbach, Germany.

Open Security Conference

Heute ist wieder #openspace Niedersachsen:
13. April 2026 (14:00 - 15:15)
"Wie bleibt ihr im Arbeitsalltag fachlich auf dem neuesten Stand – ohne euch in der Informationsflut zu verlieren?"

Wahrscheinlich kann ich nicht (bzw. nur ganz am Ende) teilnehmen. Aber als kleinen Beitrag zu dem Austausch verweise ich gerne auf meinen Blog-Beitrag von Januar 2024, in dem ich meinen PKM-Workflow (und die Tools, die ich nutze) beschrieben habe https://www.torbenmau.de/2024/01/12/2023-ein-rueckblick-in-vier-teilen-und-ein-kurzer-ausblick/ #FediCampus #pkm #FediLZ #ndsedu #pln

2023 – Ein Rückblick in vier Teilen (und ein kurzer Ausblick) – torbenmau.de

Hello les mastonautes,

Je me suis mis en quête d'un #casque audio #antibruit avec réduction de bruit active (#anc) pour tenter de rendre mes journées de présence en #openspace plus vivable.

L'offre étant pléthore, je suis preneur de conseils et/ou retour d'expérience.

#boost apprécié et même encouragé 😉

What you get: a guaranteed early bird spot, real co-design from day one, and a learning experience that goes both ways.

Call for play4agile 2026 Facilitators

Transformation doesn't stop. Neither do we. play4agile 2026: From Friction to Flow (September 10–13) is looking for Open Space Facilitators who want to help create the conditions for something real to happen. Not just a smooth event, but a space where people can actually move: from stuck to flowing, from isolated to connected, from friction to flow. If you love bringing people together, facilitating genuine co-creation, and making Open Space come alive, this is your invitation. We are looking for facilitators who have not facilitated at play4agile 2025. 🔍 Who are we looking for? ✨ Experienced and emerging Open Space Facilitators who embody the play4agile spirit. ✨ Enthusiastic co-creators who love crafting safe, engaging, and playful spaces. ✨ Facilitators for one of the three Open Space days, teaming up as a dynamic duo: one experienced Open Space facilitator paired with someone who knows Open Space well but hasn't facilitated it at p4a yet. A genuine learning experience in both directions. (Just fyi: Facilitation on Sunday is a half-day of Open Space plus the retrospective before the official closing.) ✨ Folks with experience and expertise to facilitate the pre-event on Thursday afternoon. Our criteria for the pre-event emphasise a light, interactive onboarding format that bridges firsties and oldies, highlights co-design and creativity, and teaches co-creation or gamification skills in an accessible way, with plenty of room for spontaneous participation. We are looking for facilitators who can confidently lead others into gamification territory. 🎁 Why join us? 🔐 Skip the registration stress: As a facilitator, you have a guaranteed spot for early bird pricing. You still sign up and pay like everyone else, but no need to worry about missing out. Please fill in these questions by April 22nd, 2026. We can't wait to welcome you to the play4agile 2026 facilitator team. Let's co-design a fresh p4a experience! Your play4agile Orga Team, Bruce, Dörte, Katrin & Veit

Gemütlich ins Wochenende


Am kommenden Freitag, den 3. April ist wegen des Stillen Feiertags tanzen und laute Musik verboten. Aber das bedeutet nicht das wir uns nicht gemütlich zum Start des Wochenende auf das eine oder andere Bier, etwas Wein oder Spaßgetränke treffen können. Natürlich müssen auch wir uns an die Regelungen halten, doch soll uns das nicht daran hindern zusammen gemütlich ins Wochenende zu starten.

Wir freuen uns auf auf Euch!

Wann: 3. April 2026, ab 17 Uhr
Wo: Murx, Oberbadgasse 6, 69117 Heidelberg (Altstadt)
ÖPNV: Bergbahn/Rathaus, Heidelberg und Alte Brücke, Heidelberg
Barrierefreiheit: Für Menschen in Rollstühlen weitgehend barrierearm
