FIFTITU% offers technology workshops specifically for artists, cultural workers and event organizers every year.
Cultural institutions and "independent cultural initiatives" are not immune to hetero-, sexist role models.
The arts and culture sector in particular, in its role model function, must be critically reflected upon time and again in this regard.

Last but not least, the KAPU cultural association also ran a T-shirt campaign with the slogans: "wiping instead of mixing" and "cooking instead of booking". The slogans refer to hetero-, sexist role allocations in the event area: "mixing" (sound engineering/mixing sound) "wiping" (this also has to be done preferably after the events) "cooking" (catering for the bands and the team) and "booking" ("booking" the bands). In order to work against traditional role assignments, FIFTITU% offers themed workshops especially for women who work or want to work in these areas

2008
the sound engineering workshop was still offered with Hermine Pühringer, which was very popular every time. However, as Hermine Pühringer retired in 2008, FIFTITU% took the opportunity to reorganize and expand the technical workshop concept for 2009.

2009
fIFTITU% was able to offer six one- to two-day workshops with a wide range of topics, which were successfully used by numerous participants. Starting with Drupal 6.x for beginners, which had to be offered twice due to the large number of participants, sound engineering for the sixth time, setting up Linux, DIY sex toys and making your own zines. In addition, local networking within the art and culture scene in Linz was strengthened with cooperation partners such as servus.at, Radio Fro and Linz University of Art. After completing the workshops, some of the cooperation partners still offer the opportunity to attend workouts or to deepen the knowledge acquired.
