Only one contribution from the Miesbach district is currently enriching the Bavaria-wide “Listening Paths” project.
Many more audios will be added soon: thanks to a new course from vhs-Miesbach.
Miesbach
- Open your ears and give the places and people in your homeland a voice: That's what the listening paths are all about, a cooperation project between the Bavarian adult education centers, the BR and the Listening Foundation.
But the sound map in the Miesbach district has so far been silent.
Only a two and a half minute audio report about Rosenstrasse in Tegernsee prevents it from being completely silent.
So that there will soon be much more to hear here, the vhs center Miesbach now also has such a podcast workshop course in its program - and even an offshoot for students at Waakirchen elementary school.
It's high time, says director Veronika Weese, who is also a board member of the vhs Oberland association.
She has known and appreciated the project for 13 years, but has never found a course leader to carry it out in Miesbach.
“Then Christiane Pelz called me one day,” Weese reported at the kick-off event in the foyer of the Waitzinger Keller cultural center.
The woman from Waakirch has worked as a TV writer for almost ten years and has been responsible for location promotion and public relations for the city of Starnberg since 2016.
The vhs course with the audio trails in Miesbach is part of her step towards independence this year.
People need to learn to listen again
With her podcast newcomers, Pelz wants to go out soon after an introduction to the technology (audio recording devices and smartphone apps as well as software for editing and cutting) as well as tips on speaking and asking questions in order to achieve the first audible results.
It is crucial to also learn to listen.
This gift was pushed into the background for many in a time of “imagery overload”.
There will be an opportunity to rediscover this ability at six workshop meetings on Saturdays February 24th, March 16th, April 13th, May 4th, June 8th and July 6th (each from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.).
No previous knowledge is necessary, but a willingness to practice is required.
The course is aimed at adults of all ages and young people aged 14 and over.
The course for the third and fourth grades, supported by the support association of the Waakirchner primary school, takes place on eight Fridays from March to July from 2.30 p.m. to 5 p.m., said support association chairwoman Alexandra Höfling.
Across Bavaria, the sounding map is already well filled, reported Elisabetta Mola from the Bavarian Adult Education Association and BR editor and broadcast journalist Judith Schönicke.
400 audio path contributions were created in courses at 400 vhs centers.
When searching for a topic, Mola encouraged the guests to be courageous and creative.
“Tell stories that you have always wanted to research.” You can allow contemporary witnesses to speak who have not yet appeared in any chronicles.
Or give statues a voice.
Yes, even fictional scenes can be depicted.
“Only fake news is taboo.”
“More responsible listeners” for radio programs
Schönicke also expects “more responsible listeners for our programs” from the podcast workshop.
After the course, which is also accompanied by BR reporter Julia Binder, the participants would be able to judge “what we put in front of them” much better.
All finished audios are integrated into the sounding map.
A smartphone app with a GPS connection is scheduled to appear in March so that you can navigate from one post to the next.
Whether a physical representation, for example with printed QR codes, is possible at the respective venues must be clarified on a case-by-case basis.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to integrate other existing offers, such as the audio local guide “Schliersee Worth Seeing”, which was created in a Leader project, explained Mola.
Your question about ideas was answered actively at the kick-off event.
Pastoral advisor Kathrin Baumann was able to imagine contributions about the churches in Miesbach, while head of the cultural department Isabella Krobisch was able to imagine a setting of the city's stories.
Wolfgang Foit from the Catholic Education Center (KBW) and Lisa Hilbich from the Miesbach History Workshop want to tackle a darker chapter: the traces of the Nazi era in Miesbach.
