Showcasing Knowledge Transfer (Ö)

• Subject Area: Humanities
• Term: from 2016 to 2024
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 191249397

In cooperation with the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, the project uses historical exhibits as starting points for acoustic expeditions into the history of knowledge, with the aim of appealing to a broad public. The project has already implemented a suitable and sustainable new format for disseminating the CRC’s research to a wider public in the form of the science podcast Behind things. 5000 years of knowledge history to take away and listen to. New features – such as listening posts in the urban space and a smartphone app – will increase the podcast’s visibility and impact.
