InBetween - An anecdotal audio collage InBetween is an audio experiment somewhere between Zürich, Switzerland and Delhi, India. It is a personal podcast documenting my life between Zürich and Delhi in colorful audio collages narrating the little stories, events and thoughts I encounter in between. It is an anthropological podcast documenting my PhD project from the initial search for a topic, through the field research up to the writing process. It aims to render anthropological thought and work more accessible (and understandable) to listeners with or without academic background. It tries to illustrate transparently the joys, struggles and insecurities of research – components of academic work that all too often are left unmentioned in the polished books and smooth articles produced. It is a social podcast featuring conversations about the phenomenon of “feeling in between” by different people permitting insight into their lives and thoughts. In short, inBetween is a love story between one person, two continents, everything in between and the medium audio, told anecdote by anecdote. Episodes are available in German and English.

episode 2: 02 Episode inBetween - English
How exactly do we remember places, storing them in our memory by what? Is it simply the way locations look? Or do we remember them by the feelings and memories we experienced there? Or is it actually small little details – present or absent – but forgotten till the very moment of noticing change? This episode talks about revisiting places, the “reliving” of memories and the creation of new experiences at a familiar places.
Moreover, I document my search for a PhD topic - one that is meaningful, important (to whom?) and seen as valuable also by my friends in India.
