but for us live cultural events around the world have been devastated by the coronavirus the city berlin is world famous for its techno clubs where the music and dancing stopped abruptly in march but also always advantage for now even take their music to go over the rooftops of this city from one of its most revered. summer in berlin kovac 1000 put the brakes on this city now cultural life is gradually stirring again but under strict regulations in movie theaters and museums . the pandemic has also prompted germany's principal cultural institutions to try a new path depression patrol heritage foundation has for the very 1st time open the rooftops of the boat and museum and they're free to expand a church for a project together with.

deejays play their sets against a backdrop of historical treasures. event organizer and co initiator mightiest 2nd at hopes the concept will spawn a series of videos for digital platforms. this is absolutely an attempt to launch something new in the midst of the corona walked down at present the agency is making a 0 revenues but still has monthly expenses so of course we hope these productions will eventually bring something in so we can make ends meet i mean if you. lose nightlife has been especially hard hit except for open air events pubs and bars are allowed to reopen now but the clubs have been under lockdown since mid march no concert no dancing no all night partying. even so for now streams are helping performers establish a presence and keeping the clubs afloat. now the crowdfunding united we stream

project is networked the world over from detroit to singapore over $1500.00 performances have been staged in 4 months. and their limbs clubs have made up an essential part of its cultural life since the 1990 s. and now their survival is at stake. one couple mall around us there's a lot of despair that's true but we're event managers who are the ones who keep the creativity flowing and assessed that he is often the mother of invention of course we won't know till much later if what we come up with now is just as good or as profitable but it will be something new about what the north and stay in. for now hopes are for a long warm summer allowing for lots of the events in the open air. more signs now but also from the past also as so many museums are struggling the good

news is this new one is expanding as it's actually online an enterprising young guy here in germany is collecting sounds that have disappeared from our lives and uploading them onto the website conserve the sound. i. the sounds of times gone by i feel remember them. it's maddening laughs. when i mean on the x. in my project is conserve the sound and on my museum for vanishing sounds. he's already collected about $120.00 from the clatter of a slide projector to the wealth of poets. the archive keeps growing all the time because of all kinds of sounds not disappearing from our lives. young texan's day

time job is in communication design he keeps some collector's items in his office the mentos it sounds past. classic a true classic which you also find on our website is this rotary dial telephone. the 1st pick up the receiver. yeah it's paul gallen generations later it's a great little mobile phone. hindis. it's much less noisy. sometimes it sounds if you listen carefully. you're still became entirely silent with the 1st smartphones where you swipe in silence. just getting confused. after a little post production the new recordings from the facts around museum a pair on the conserve the sound website it's not a money making enterprise but gets funding from the state and it could go on forever. to many of us there are loads more sounds you could look for and find out

. it's a lifelong venture. actually the project to keep going for as long as there are humans producing sounds quickly with little room. and then with the sound is nerdy and wonderful the past in the present and for having. me the germans is back and it's present to rachel's church will join me in a minute to talk about that and d.-w. is new beat the germans instagram channel but 1st she's been missing the germans in love. and also showing off a new hip talent of hers. in another country as the new kid on the block of course you're going to feel some kind of culture shock the official definition. as i see the results from using off

the many signs and symbols of social intercourse 26. because i want to see germany was for me now just touched down by the british crown and i'm thinking why am i a bit no because even though i should enjoy the freedom while i just can't go in there. being said. to work in any way having to pay with. fish and chips off curry fish and chips all covering. the home when it comes to. the odds for a change. and how to watch annoying people like say somebody above us right straight i'm not as likely to say oh sorry. no. perhaps i think of the new hobby of mine i'm going down the road route i love to be. fish and chips off. fish and chips. the germans and brits have got plenty in common anyway right

they're very similar in that with family orientated it's a work ethic they seem to teach very connected history. a sense of humor so. i think the. very people. he celebrates his journey groups are different. people and to me were a lot more straightforward terms get quite upset. because most british people are very. small pro you know i think i'm quite liberal much later i mentioned. fish and chips. so how are you vision. better present ever but when you are getting to realise that culture is just another way of living in your own culture with both sides bright light. the final stuff i can it was bought for me and german milk it has a. fish and chip and curry for fish and chips to encourage.

up. george great show for you yeah. fish and chips so curry one of those on the menu i probably still gave a fish and chips i must say but if we're going to go into the metaphorical level i'd like to say that i'm probably a little bit of both i think like i said in the video that's what i like about when you move someone you kind of bring a bit of your own culture with you but you're also adopting aspects of the new culture. so you still have fish and chips a show that. is incredibly popular why do you think it works i think probably the main thing is the mixture of information and entertainment that we bring so we have a lot of fun making it and i think people look at the jokes that are making with

them but also we cram a lot of information into really short videos and i think also my favorite thing about doing the show is the i got to kind of act as a bit of a go between so i'm explaining the german culture to people who might not necessarily know that much about it but i'm also telling the people who grew up. what's actually particularly interesting or confusing to newcomers so i think you get it from both perspectives. but somewhere along the line you're going to run. you might think actually the list is still very long and in fact we've decided now to start an instagram channel because we have so much to talk about and now this way we can bring all of us something every single day from every single day ok let's have a look little a little taste of the instagram. morning on. my group a couple of weeks ago you have the vibe for the. generals must wonder why we go on

about the supermarket same as if it's another planet or something but i mean you can you really can feel like i'm. finally with them can be difficult maybe because it's kept in a different place to where you see you you might need a word in german and maybe it doesn't even exist here so this is an example of you know i took the view as along with me to the supermarket which is a place that can be quite daunting for a newcomer and then we asked them to tell us what kind of things have they maybe not been able to find in the supermarket or which german products that they not been able to find when they've been abroad we got some really good responses from people and i think i think actually the baking aisle is the most confusing place for people here. baking bread it is terribly coarse and greedy to have to say that . the germans but this is kind of interactive yeah very much so so what we loved about instagram was that we can really start to build a bit of a community you know and we'll be bringing all sorts of different topics so we're

bringing things in the form of a quiz that we might be doing interviews and introducing people to germans that they might have heard of big historical figures but also everyday germans on the ground people they might know of thought about before and one of my so important things about social media a great advantage we have now with instagram is the we can be very upset date and we can try and bring live aspects of what was going on in germany right now or say i was going to say that and you can actually be you actually do stuff law i. live the idea i would like to invite people to come along with us to places to events and also just to give up to date sort of an update on what's going on in germany right now so for example what's the biggest topic around the globe right now is obviously coronavirus and we get sent a lot of questions people are very interested in how germany is dealing with the current pandemic so i wouldn't stick around we can go into a story and tell people what's happening right now right as always thank you very much for coming in and keep those law thing as you always very it's very much.
