Recordist's notes

Wollankstraße, Berlin - cosy talk about ancient times in front of a supermarket bread shop. Three elderly residents talk about the games they used to play outside on the streets when they were children. They conclude that increased road traffic may be one of the reasons why hopscotch, whip tops and kites are mostly outdated among children nowadays. Recorded for 'Soundmap Soldiner Kiez' (see http://aporee.org/maps/projects/soundmap_soldiner_kiez ), a contribution to the project KiezKulturNetz (see http://www.kkn.kritische-kunst.org/ ). [I used the Hi-MD-recorder Sony MZ-NH900 with external microphone Beyerdynamic MCE 82] ----- Wollankstraße, Berlin - Gespräch über vergangene Zeiten, vor dem Bäcker des Supermarkts. Drei ältere Einwohner erinnern sich an die Spiele, die sie als Kinder draußen auf den Straßen spielten. Die heutigen Kinder tun ihnen leid: Sicher liege es auch am gestiegenen Verkehrsaufkommen, dass Hopse, Trieseln und Drachensteigen nun weitgehend der Vergangenheit angehören. Aufgenommen für 'Soundmap Soldiner Kiez' (Link http://aporee.org/maps/projects/soundmap_soldiner_kiez ), ein Beitrag zum Projekt KiezKulturNetz (siehe http://www.kkn.kritische-kunst.org/ ). [Aufgenommen mit Hi-MD-recorder Sony MZ-NH900 und externem Mikrophon Beyerdynamic MCE 82]
