but. 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. but artists always advantage of a now even techno music to go over the rooftops of this city from one of its most revered. summer in berlin kovac 1000 put the brakes on the city now cultural life is gradually during 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 of depression patrol heritage foundation has for the very 1st time open the rooftops of the boat and museum and if they like they had a church project together with berlin's club.

deejays play their sets against a backdrop of historical treasures. event organizer and co initiator. 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 lockdown 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. lives night life 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. so for now streams are helping performers establish a presence and. being the club's afloat. now that crowd funding the united we

stream project this network to the world over from detroit to singapore over 1500 performances have been staged in 4 months. clubs have made up an essential part of its cultural life since the 1990 s. and now their survival is at stake. 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 assess it 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 that at the north and stay in. for now i'll hope so for a long warm summer allowing for a lot so this in the open air. more sounds now but also from the past well so are 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 can serve the sign. i. the sounds of times gone by i remember them. this man laughs. because i'm here on the x. and 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 widow of. the archive keeps growing all the time because all kinds of sounds are disappearing from our lives. time

job is in communication design he keeps some collector's items in his office and then tapes it sounds prost and so i feel i'm close to true classic which you also find on our website is this rotary dial telephone. you have to 1st pick up the receiver. yeah it's paul gallen generations later it's a great little mobile phone. in these. it's much less noisy and there are some tiny sounds if you listen carefully. later still became entirely silent with the 1st smartphones where you swipe in silence. just confused but. after a little post production the new recordings from the fairground museum appear 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. there are loads more sounds you could look for and find.

it's a lifelong venture. actually a project to keep going for as long as there are humans producing sounds as quickly as a. 3rd of the sound is new deep and wonderful the past in the present for half. the job. presenter rachel will join me in a minute to talk about that. new beat the germans instagram. but 1st the germans in love. and also showing off a new talent of her. 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 condition and the anxiety that

results from using off a 1000000 signs and symbols of social intercourse it was 26. because of what germany was the name now just touched down by the british crown and i'm thinking why am i a bit german because even though i should enjoy the freedom while a cab i just can't go and there's nobody. there to walk in anywhere and play with their fish and chips off curry fish and chips or curry i've really done my homework when it comes to german beers and of course. i do miss the point and how do i want 3000000 people like thank somebody. great i'm not afraid. say oh great i'm all i can say not. to have to think of sons a new hobby of mine i'm going on the bridge i love to be in the new mission ships all covered fish and chips all covered with. the family member got plenty in

common anyway right we're very similar in that with family orientated it's a work ethic basically teach very connected history don't repeat this all the conditions here since a few months. i think the. very nice people we hope will be celebrated she's german troops there are different. people in time you are a lot more straightforward the germans get quite upset because most british people are very. i think i'm quite liberal much later on mentioned. a sensitive. fish and chips on. fish and chips so i carry a vision. that represent their own but when you see them all forgetting you're realizing just another way of living in your own culture. right like a final thought. and german. fish

and chips and car with the fish and chips and connery. great show george great show for you yeah. fish and chips or curry or if it was on the menu i'd probably still be a fish and chips i must say but if i'm going to go into the metaphorical level i'd like to say that i'm probably a little bit of both and i think like i said in the video that's what i like about when you meet 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 actually. is incredibly popular why do you think it works so well 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 will get the joke that i was 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 that 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 here germans what's actually particularly interesting or confusing to newcomers so i think you got it from both perspectives. but somewhere along the line you're going to run sure 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 our followers something every single day from every single day ok let's have a look little a little taste of the instagram. morning i'm off to the supermarket with my group a couple of weeks ago. with. the general must wonder why we go on

about the supermarkets a much is a bit of a planet with something other than you can really count you like that. since. finding them could be different maybe because it's going to mean different places where you do you might know the word in german or 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 have been opened up 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 the people here. baking bread is terribly important of course and really have to say that. the germans but this is kind of interactive yeah very much so what we loved about the 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 because oracle figures but also every day germans on the ground people they might know of thought about before one of my so important things about social media a great advantage we have now with instagram is the we can do very up to date and we can try and bring live aspects of what's what's going on in germany right now or see i'm 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 with instagram we can go into a story and tell people what's happening right now pretty much right as always thank you very much for coming in and keep those law thing as you always do science

friday much. for today by the way are just want to say. check out it's a grab every day at d.f.w. under skoal make the germans out doesn't drive but anyway i'm a park and i didn't know it rachel's but specify question because i have my car but if i could fuck off it.
