We recently met the Frauendomäne founders Sophie Rendl, a lawyer, and Hannah Zach, a communications consultant, for an interview in Vienna. In the interview, they talk about the creation process, how the "Women's domain - database for female experts" works, which communication interfaces were built in and what long-term goals they have for the project

Registration is already possible and can be done at www.frauendomaene.at. On October 9, 2019, the database will be realeased in a new design.

FIFTITU% - The network of women* in art and culture on Austrian women's politics

FIFTITU% is Austria's only networking and advice center for women* in the arts and culture. We spoke to them about their work, problems in Austrian women's policy and a year of black/turquoise/blue austerity, but also why good women's policy is not dependent on political color.

to the article

Gabriela Gordillo is a sound and visual artist. For Gordillo,sound is used as an extension of the senses connecting matter and mind, and thus part of a whole. She describes process of making "music" or "sound art" as a collateral effect of working with instruments, with a noisy or raw aesthetic bounded to their mechanisms. Her material varies from recordings, sampling, generative synthesis, electronics, the body and the act of listening, that blends in a personal imaginary.

Gabriela Gordillo held sound performance in July at the Haager Noisetage in Haag, Lower Austria. Soon after, we met in Linz, where we discussed her sound art practice, influences, female sound artists and her plans.

We are visible! Feminist interventions on the Linz Women's Report

Meeting point: 8 pm (sharp!) Linz main square / Neptune fountain

Women's suffrage was fought for 100 years ago, the abortion solution 40 years ago, in 2019 Austria had a female chancellor for the first time but never a female president. On average, women* in Austria still receive 43% less pension and in 2016, women* in Linz only earned 61% of the gross salary of men* in Linz. Linz has never had a female mayor and throughout Austria there are more mayors called Josef than female mayors in total. These are just some of the facts that prove that women* are still structurally disadvantaged in Linz and that both their demands and their promotion must be taken seriously!

We cordially invite you to the 2nd Linz Dyke March!

This demo traditionally takes place one day before the big Pride to once again draw special attention to the visibility of women* who identify as lesbian, bi, pan, genderfluid / trans and who (also) love women/*.
This year also specifically flint people in the community, drag kings* & sex workers. Allies also welcome.

Meeting point: June 28, 7 pm, Hosi Linz (Schillerstraße 49)
We will then walk quite punctually towards Hauptplatz (Schillerstraße - Südtirolerstraße - Landstraße - Hauptplatz) and merge with We are visible ! Feminist interventions on the Linz Women's Report.

We look forward to seeing you! Let's March, Dykes*!
