Vibe Coding Cologne
Let's connect among AI enthusiasts and context engineers to explore the good, the bad and the arrrsome 🏴☠️ of AI
Agenda
Sessions on what's now unlocked with AI — product, marketing, automation. Each shows something practical you can apply in your own work.
Doors Open – Grab a Drink, Meet Builders
Pre-event mixer to connect with Cologne's builder community
Vibe Coding: What Is Worth Building?
Simonetta has been building digital products for 15 years. Work that took her teams months to build can now be delivered in days. First principles on how to think about value creation stay surprisingly stable. She vibe coded an Android App in 48h at the last Hackathon, but was it worth building?
Facts Inform. Stories Transform.
Sue and Andrei are building an AI companion that narrates the story of humanity in a way that is relevant to the user. Lindenfeld brings the stories of where you are and what you care about – no research, no screens, no distractions. Move through your world and listen to the unbroken chain of human experience that culminates with you.
From Prompt to Skin – Building an AI That Understands Style
Josua built an AI-powered tool for tattoo artists that generates stencil-ready designs in a consistent, learnable style – not just random outputs. He'll show how he vibe-coded the entire app, why most AI design tools fail for real creative workflows, and how one generated design already made it onto his own skin.
