Oh du Fröhliche: Geschichte eines Weihnachtsliedes, Hörbuch, Digital, 68min
Das Hörspiel befasst sich mit der Entstehung des Weihnachtsliedes "Oh du Fröhliche". Nach der Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig im Jahr 1813 herrscht Not und Elend in der Stadt Weimar. Kinder sterben an Seuchen. Auch vier Kinder der Familie Falk sterben an Typhus. Bei einem Spaziergang durch die Stadt trifft Falk auf einen Bettler, der ihn in ein Lager für verwaiste Kinder bringt. Daraufhin gründet Falk ein "Rettungshaus für verwaiste Kinder". Den dort aufgenommenen Kindern widmete er 1816 das heute als Weihnachtslied bekannte "O du Fröhliche". Falk verwendete die Melodie eines Marienliedes, das auf den Text "O sanctissima, o purissima (piissima), dulcis virgo Maria" in Italien gesungen wird. Er fand dieses Lied in Johann Gottfried Herders (1744-1803) Sammlung "Stimmen der Völker in Liedern". Regie: Klaus Langer. Musik: Dieter Reith. deutsch.

Haben Schwarze Löcher keine Haare?
Das Geheimnis der Schwarzen LöcherSie sind eines der größten Rätsel im Universum: Schwarze Löcher, kollabierte Sterne, deren Anziehungskraft so groß ist, dass sie alles in sich hineinziehen, was in ihren Einflußbereich gelangt. Stephen Hawking hat sich ein Leben lang mit ihnen beschäftigt. Denn sie sind eine Existenzfrage. Wenn an ihnen sogar Raum und Zeit enden und niemand sagen kann, was aus all dem wird, das sie verschlucken - was ist dann noch sicher, welche unserer Naturgesetze gelten dann noch? Oder geben sie am Ende doch wieder etwas her?In diesen kurzen Lektionen, im Rahmen der renommierten Reith-Lectures von BBC Radio 4 vorgetragen, zieht der berühmteste Physiker der Welt eine kurze Bilanz seiner Beschäftigung mit den Schwarzen Löchern, die Bilanz eines Lebenswerkes.- Shop: buecher

Bertrand Russell: The First Media Academic?: Archive on 4, Hörbuch, Digital, 56min
Bertrand Russell was one of the greatest thinkers of the last century. His contributions to the fields of mathematics and philosophy are widely acknowledged as some of the most important of their kind. But he also brought his brand of rationalism and intellect to an audience far beyond the academic and political circles he routinely mixed with. His relationship with the BBC goes back almost to the beginning of its own history, and his many broadcasts brought his ideas to a whole new audience. He delivered the first Reith Lectures back in 1948, and was a regular panellist on the hugely popular The Brains Trust. His thoughts on themes ranging from education, through to nuclear armament and religion, were regularly broadcast on the BBC right up to the end of his life. Robin Ince listens to some of Russell's great contributions to broadcasting and looks at the life of arguably the first great media academic. Producer: Alexandra Feachem. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Ince. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/bbcw/006027/bk_bbcw_006027_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.- Shop: Audible

Playing to the Gallery: Helping Contemporary Art in Its Struggle to Be Understood, Hörbuch, Digital, 167min
It's easy to feel insecure around art and its appreciation, as though we cannot enjoy certain artworks if we don't have a lot of academic and historical knowledge. But if there's one message that I want you to take away it's that anybody can enjoy art and anybody can have a life in the arts - even me! For even I, an Essex transvestite potter, have been let in by the artworld mafia. Now Grayson Perry is a fully paid-up member of the art establishment, he wants to show that any of us can appreciate art (after all, there is a reason he's called his book Playing to the Gallery and not Sucking Up to the Academic Elite). In this live recording from the Reith Lectures (2013), he talks about his own funny, personal journey through the art world and answers the basic questions that might occur to us in an art gallery but seem too embarrassing to ask. Questions such as: What is good or bad art - and does it even matter? Is there any way to test if something is art, other than a large group of people standing around looking at it? Is art still capable of shocking us or have we seen it all before? Can you be a lovable character and a serious artist - what is a serious artist anyway? And what happens if you place a piece of art in a rubbish dump? Language: English. Narrator: Grayson Perry. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/pauk/000539/bk_pauk_000539_sample.mp3.

Human Compatible
FROM THE BBC REITH LECTURER 2021 'The most important book I have read in quite some time' Daniel Kahneman; 'A must-read' Max Tegmark; 'The book we've all been waiting for' Sam Harris Humans dream of super-intelligent machines. But what happens if we actually succeed? Creating superior intelligence would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, according to the world's pre-eminent AI expert, it could also be the last. In this groundbreaking book, Stuart Russell sets out why he has come to consider his own discipline an existential threat to humanity, and how we can change course before it's too late. In brilliant and lucid prose, he explains how AI actually works and its enormous capacity to improve our lives - and why we must never lose control of machines more powerful than we are. Russell contends that we can avert the worst threats by reshaping the foundations of AI to guarantee that machines pursue our objectives, not theirs. Profound, urgent and visionary, Human Compatible is the one book everyone needs to read to understand a future that is coming sooner than we think.
