At this address you can also find the exact times of the readings in the ORF Theatre. All readings and discussions are broadcast live by 3sat. The author who receives the most votes wins the Hypo Group Audience Prize 2009. In the case of a tie, a random draw will determine the winner.
This prize is independent of the other allocated prizes. It is therefore possible for an author to be the recipient of the Hypo Group Audience Prize and another prize, awarded by the jury.
For the first time this year, all 14 texts can be accessed online in eight different languages.
The votes are counted under statutory supervision. There is no recourse to legal action. Any personal data are used exclusively to determine the winners and are subject to the relevant data protection regulations.
