Nerds Nights @ Sapien Center
Nerds Nights | Tech Tuesdays is your recurring excuse to escape the screens, catch the sundown and actually talk to humans — starting Tuesday, March 3rd, 6-9 PM (bi-weekly after that) at the Sapien Center. FREE. - See, something in life is.
If you're actively building, breaking and/or dreaming about Decentralization • Open Source • Web5 • AI • Self-Hosting • IoT • 3D/XR/Spatial • Nodes • DIY • Security/Privacy • Quantum • Code • Robotics • Space (even if you believe its made in a Hollywood basement), come on through, You're family.
Bring the fun: your wildest tech, toys, cosplay, anything that hacks reality, orange pills, prototypes on the verge of greatness (or shorting out, again), robots with personality disorders, or that one project everyone needs to see.
- Entrepreneurs, own the stage—pitch your vision, demo the magic, fundraise without shame, find your missing co-founder/partner, or hype your thing.
- Brands, companies with products and services, promote, sell and scale.
- Content creators/influencers: podcast setup on-site or level up at Archipelago's South studio for worldwide vibes.
- Sponsors & vendors: Our members are Austin's finest, bring your goods, mingle and connect.
As always for our Lab484 Members – this and all public events are free, at Sapien Center, Archipelago, and Indra's Awarehouse.
To all the existing tech groups, meetups, hackathons, DAOs, LAN partiers, and orgs: this is your open invite to host here regularly. We've got the venue, the recurring rhythm, and warm, welcoming chaos—you supply the high-signal, low-noise humans.
No barriers. Just brilliant minds swapping ideas, stories, laughing at our impending collapse of society, and geeking out over AI/ML, drone swarms, the singularity, robot spouses and hacked Roombas.
Awesome, seed oil free, mostly organic and local food from our on-site food truck, Kitchen 484 and get functional beverages, elixirs and mocktails from our intelligent vending machines.
The sauna will be hot, the plunges cold and the heavy stuff in the gym is here for you to pick up and put down repetitively, if fitness, wellness and strength is your thing.
Come for the talks, stay for the amazing humans, mind-blowing tech and the "Wait, you did WHAT?!" moments.
RSVP now, and bring your nerdy friends – the future is not going to decentralize itself. 🌟🔧🤓
