Hej chapter, how are you?

Projekt Groda wants to help and inspire you to a more sustainable life, but also give some hope when the climate news look dark. But first we need help! How much do you feel like you know? What do you think about these questions? How is you climate anxiety?

**We made a simple survey,** (currently only available in swedish :( ) to check in on how chapter members feel, and would be veeerry thankful for answers! 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you in advance! 🐸💚 **Answer me**

Take a break from the studies or relax after a re-exam! Come to META later today, our sewing circle responsible will be there from 18 o clock :3

As you hopefully know, our wonderful chapter belongs to the almost equally wonder School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS)! Long ago, the four chapters belonging to EECS coordinated gasques in harmoni and blablabla... you know where I'm going with this: there will be an EECS-gasque!!! 🥳 🥳

The ticket release will be on Thursdag, the 11th of April at 19:00. in META (and Tolvan... and Kistan for that matter...) you can find the tickets on Tessera. The gasque itself will start 18:00 in Nya matsalen in Nymble on Tuesday the 7th of May.

Hello hello!

Every Saturday from 2 pm to 3 pm we have booked KTH Hallen for the rest of the semester. The idea is that we do some activity/sport for an hour. Everyone is welcome! The primary goal is having fun, not to play super competitively.

This week (Saturday 30th) we will play ball games for 1 hour.

I will try to vary the sports in the following weeks. And please come with suggestions for what we can do!!!

All events are published in our sports group on Facebook.

Hope to see you there 🙂

DO YOU WANT TO BE CS AND MEDIA'S 🌟 ROCK STAR 🌟? Or just entertain the people with sick beats, cool riffs, and a fat bass lick? Come and play with us at MKM's live music pub this May!

For those who don't know, Data Et Medias OrquesterNämnd (DEMON) is Computer Science and Media's very own, open music club! You can think of us as the chapter band, but we also work to promote music interest in CS and Media and support all of you who are interested in playing music within the chapter! That's why we're an open club, where anyone can participate in one of our jam sessions (more information about that can be found on our Discord server).

But because we are an open committee, we also don't have a permanent group of players that can be said to make up the band. So for performances, we now ask that you to step up on stage and take the chance to entertain the sections with your musical talent! 🎶🎸🔥

Sounds like something for you? Reach out to us with the application form below, there you can also find a great deal of other useful info. LET'S GO DEMON LIVE!!! 😈

Are you curious about singing in a choir? 🎶 Or have you been singing since you were five and want to find somewhere to do that in the chapter? Your wait is finally over! 🎉

On 11 April at 6pm, Scala will have an open rehearsal where all chapter members can come and sing!

Scala is the CS chapter's very own choir, and we sing together at the level you are every Thursday! We usually rehearse a few songs each semester, and those who want to (a subset) also sometimes have performances.

The idea is that it is an opportunity to relax and think about something other than your studies for a while. No experience is required! You don't need to know your part, you don't need to be able to read music, you just need to have the will to sing together. ❤️

What will happen is first a warm-up, where we do some easy singing exercises, and then we divide into our parts to practice a song. If you don't know which part you are, you'll come with me and we'll find out. Then when we have rehearsed for a while, we gather again and sing the song together. If we have time, we take another song.

Then we will continue to rehearse every Thursday in roughly the same way. But please come on the 11th if you are new to get as good an introduction as possible.

The room we have this year is V01 (not V1, it's two different rooms!).

Hope to see you there! Toodles 🐩

tl:dr: Come and sing the 11th of april at 6pm in V01! Come on, it'll be fun!🥳🦜

At 17:30, 2024-05-02 Extra-SM #1 (Summer-VM) will be held in D1.

On Monday next week (18/3), at 15:15, we will embark from META on a magical photo walk 📸🚶, organized by Media's Photography Group ️️️📷 and the International Committee 🌍!

As the name suggests, participants simply bring their own cameras and take a nice walk together, all the while taking and sharing pictures. After the event, there will be an opportunity to submit your favorite photos in different categories for public voting. The winners will be posted on Instagram and showcased in META for a limited time for all Chapter members to see! 🏆🖼️

The photo walk will also be a great opportunity for Swedish and International students to meet and be creative together! Moreover, if you don't own a camera (phones 📱 also count as cameras!), it's completely fine to just join for the walk - both the International Committee and the Photography Group would love to see you there! There might even be rumors of free fika... 🍪

TL;DR:

• ❓ What? CS & Media Photo Walk
• 🕒 When? Monday 18th March, 15:15
• 📍 Where? Starting from META
• 👥 Who? You and your friends!

Expect a nice walk, photography, and meeting people. Whether you're a professional who's been photographing all their life, or an amateur who has never taken a picture before, we hope to see you there!
