Silent Hive 05

 

SILENT HIVE - curating music from the genres of Ambient, 4th World Music and experimental atmospheric sounds in general. This video is a part of a playlist dedicated to ESCAPISM.

The music is meant to evoke nostalgia, exotica or a sense of wonder, mystery and adventure.

It can accompany you, while you're working or doing otherwise dull chores. Or you can experiment with it on your own. Maybe it will help you to fall asleep, or be a soundtrack to your thoughts, while you work on a manuscript, or paint, or ... Maybe you just want to shut out the world outside for a moment.

Der Dieb im Tempel #28 (Der geheime Podcast)

 

EPISODE 28: Fluchtwege mit Heinz Rox-Schulz: Auszüge aus den Reisebüchern "Ohne Geld um die Welt" (1956), "Himmel und Hölle Indien" (1957) und "Verrückter Gringo" (1971)

In dieser anknüpfenden Episode geht es ebenfalls um deutsche Reisebücher - diesmal jedoch von einem Reisenden der nächsten Ära geschrieben: Heinz Schulz, auch bekannt als Mr. Rox. Rox war ein Pionier der Globetrotterkultur und die hier gelesenen Abschnitte stellen einen interessanten Kontrast zu dem klassischen Reiseforscher Filchner und versetzen uns in gewohnt eskapistischer Manier zuerst in den Sudan, dann nach Indien und schließlich in den südamerikanischen Urwald.

Der Dieb im Tempel #27 (Der geheime Podcast)

 

 

Fluchtwege mit Wilhelm Filchner: Auszüge aus den Reisebüchern "Om Mani Padme Hum" (1928) und "Bismillah!" (1938)

In dieser (etwas unvorbereiteten) Episode biete ich ein wenig Ablenkung vom Alltag, in dem ich zwei Kapitel aus den Reisebüchern von Wilhelm Filchner lese. Der eskapistische Ausflug führt uns zuerst in das Herz von Tibet und dann an den Rand der Gobi-Wüste.

Der Dieb im Tempel #20 (Der geheime Podcast)

 

EPISODE 20: Philippe de Broca: "Tendre Poulet" (1978) & "On A Volé La Cuisse de Jupiter" (1980), Michel Leclerc: "Le Nom des Gens" (2010)

Heute geht es um drei französische Liebeskomödien, die mehr zu bieten haben, als der Filmtitel vermuten lässt. Alle drei Filme haben interessante und wundersame Gemeinsamkeiten und sind gute Kandidaten für Nostalgie und Eskapismus, da sie eine idealistische Diskussion über Sozialismus, Feminismus und die Gesellschaft im Allgemeinen erlauben. Etwas, das heute zunehmend aus dem öffentlichen Bewusstsein verdrängt und durch Social-Media-Gift ersetzt wird.

Der Dieb im Tempel #9 (Der geheime Podcast)

 

 

Billy Wilder: "The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes", ein Vortrag über Eskapismus und ein Rant über Online-Trolle

In dieser Podcast-Episode geht es wieder um einen Film - diesmal steht Billy Wilders "The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes" im Mittelpunkt der Betrachtung.

 

Weiter rezitiere ich einen Vortrag über Eskapismus, mit dem Titel "Fantasy als Zufluchtsort im Zeitalter des Wahnsinns", den ich 2017 in Berlin gehalten hatte. 

 

Und im Finale verselbstständigt sich die Podcast-Episode in einen Rant über Social Media und die ewigen Trolle.
