## [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/99-easy-steps-to-austrian-integration-terence-hartnett-live-thecomedypub-tickets-1989314271537?aff=MeetUp) A fast-paced English comedy show about surviving — and loving — life in Austria. ## An American’s Guide to Becoming Austrian (In Only 99 Easy Steps) Two years ago, NYC comedian **Terence Hartnett** moved to Vienna for love. Now, after navigating bureaucracy, Kaffeehaus culture, German grammar traps, recycling rules, and the mysterious emotional rhythm of Austrian friendliness, he’s ready to present his definitive — and completely foolproof — 99-step integration plan. This is English-language Kabarett meets sharp stand-up comedy — rapid-fire, intelligent, self-aware, and deeply relatable for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in a new country. ## What the Show Explores * ☕ **How to Order at a Viennese Kaffeehaus** (The service is half as attentive as in America… but so is the expected tip.) * 🚋 **How to Master Public Transport** (If it looks free, it probably isn’t.) * 📚 **A1 German Confusion** (“Wer ist die toilette?” does NOT mean what you think it means.) * ❄️ **Austrian (Un)Friendliness** Austrians aren’t unfriendly — they just take three years to decide if they like you. * ♻️ **Recycling** Enough said. Through rapid punchlines, sharp cultural comparisons, and heartfelt storytelling, Hartnett examines the small daily moments where cultures collide — and where humor saves us. ## Cultural Relativity, Explained Through Laughter Kurt Vonnegut once wrote: *“Cultural relativity is defensible, attractive. It's a source of hope.”* As an outsider, Hartnett looks at Austrian culture with curiosity instead of criticism. What seems strange through American eyes becomes funny, thoughtful, and sometimes even beautiful. There is a lot to love. A little to resent. And so much to laugh about. Through gentle teasing and sharp self-deprecation, **everyone becomes the punchline — including the comedian himself.** ## Who This Show Is For ✔ Expats navigating Austrian life ✔ Austrians curious how they look from the outside ✔ English-speaking comedy lovers in Vienna ✔ Anyone who has ever lived abroad ✔ Fans of smart, cultural, observational stand-up If you’ve ever struggled with integration, paperwork, language, or just figuring out where to stand on an escalator — this show is for you. ## About Terence Hartnett Terence Hartnett is a New York City comedian known for blending personal storytelling with sharp cultural observations. His work bridges continents with humor that is intelligent, warm, and quietly philosophical — without ever losing the punchlines. ## Why You Should Come Because integration is hard. Because Austria is confusing. Because cultural differences are funny. Because laughter makes everything easier. **99 Easy Steps to Austrian Integration** is a love letter to Austria — written in jokes. Seats are limited. Arrive early, grab a drink, and get ready to laugh at the beautiful absurdity of living between cultures. #TerenceHartnett #99EasySteps #EnglishComedyVienna #ExpatComedy #ComedyInVienna #StandUpVienna #IntegrationComedy #AmericanInAustria #ViennaComedy #KabarettEnglish #LiveComedyVienna #CulturalComedy #TheComedyPub #ViennaEvents #ThingsToDoInVienna

**Roots: Memory, Migration, Nature & Belonging** This workshop explores how our memories, identities, and sense of belonging are shaped by the plants and climates we grow up with, and how these relationships change through experiences of migration, movement, and transformation. Whether migration is across countries, cities, languages, or social environments, we carry traces of these places with us, often in ways we do not immediately recognise. Grounded in queer ecology and theory, this workshop approaches nature as a space that challenges fixed categories and celebrates diverse ways of relating, adapting, and existing. **Queer Ecology, Memory, and Migration** Drawing from writers such as Sania Shah and Jessica J. Lee, alongside examples of queerness in flowers and plant life, participants will reflect on their own connections to place, memory, and movement. Together, we will explore questions such as: * What do we carry with us when we migrate? * How do plants, landscapes, and climates shape identity? * What traces of former homes remain with us? * How do we create belonging in new environments? * What can nature teach us about adaptation and transformation? **Creative Reflection and Making** Participants are invited to identify a transformational plant, flower, tree, or natural element that holds personal significance. Through storytelling, group discussion, painting, and speculative making methods, we will explore how reconnecting with these plant memories can help us understand where we come from, how we identify ourselves, and how we root ourselves in the places we inhabit today. Together, we will imagine and create small portable objects inspired by these plants and memories. These creations may become: * Personal holders * Necklaces * Keychains * Magnets * Pins * Other everyday companions These objects will serve as small reminders of memory, movement, belonging, and transformation. **Community, Anti-Racism, and Collective Storytelling** The workshop also engages with themes of anti-racism, the right to existence, community-building, and collective storytelling. Through rounds of sharing and listening, participants contribute to a supportive environment where personal stories become a starting point for understanding broader experiences of belonging, migration, identity, and difference. Sharing personal experiences is welcome but never required. Participants are encouraged to engage in whatever way feels comfortable for them. **Who Is This Workshop For?** This workshop welcomes: * Migrants and refugees * Diaspora communities * LGBTQIA+ people * Artists, writers, and creatives * Nature lovers * Community organisers * People interested in identity, memory, and belonging * Anyone curious about migration, ecology, and storytelling No prior knowledge or artistic experience is required. **Accessibility Information** This event takes place at Villa Vida Café, Linke Wienzeile 102, 1060 Vienna. Accessibility features include: * Step-free entrance * Wheelchair-accessible ground floor venue * Accessible toilet * Seating available throughout the event * Quiet spaces available upon request * Service animals welcome * Free drinking water available If you have specific accessibility requirements, please contact us before the event and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

Day DJ is a weekly series at Villa Vida Café. Each Friday, local DJs take over the space and share their sound in a daytime setting. The focus is on new talent, experimentation, and community. This is a place to build sets, try ideas, and connect through music. The format is open and relaxed. You can come to listen, work, meet people, or stay for the full set. The aim is to create a consistent platform where DJs grow their practice and support each other. **DJ Ruby Nyaoro** DJ Ruby Nyaoro brings a groove-driven selection rooted in rhythm and flow. Expect a mix of house music, deep house, Afro house, Afro tech, and tech house — blending funky elements with steady, danceable energy. The focus is less on strict genre lines and more on creating a cohesive atmosphere that moves the room. DJs have played a central role in queer culture. In spaces where queer people were excluded, DJs created environments where identity and expression could exist. Through sound, they shaped rooms, built connections, and guided shared experiences. Many of the sounds and practices that define nightlife today grew out of queer spaces. House, disco, and club culture were shaped by queer communities, especially Black and Latinx scenes. Day DJ continues this history by creating space for new voices and keeping this culture active. **Participate as a DAY DJ** **[https://villavida.at/portfolio-item/day-dj](https://villavida.at/portfolio-item/day-dj?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExZHhIekNYM2VMYTdLREFFeXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4fBsYcnU5dV9mz3JpeIffyheKyyZL_PQdYmBlkJa9Pz6SRBCqkC2sh7N9lKg_aem_86MrlVYuZApUP-WTrm0WKQ)**

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served. This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
