Tegel Media

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tegel Media is an online platform that has been operated by German writers Leif Randt and Jakob Nolte and graphic designer Manuel Bürger since 2017 . The operators call Tegel Media a “ label for content ”.

history

The project goes back to an initiative of writers friends Leif Randt and Jakob Nolte. Since 2016 they have been planning to found a magazine together with the designer Manuel Bürger, who worked for the Volksbühne Berlin under the director Chris Dercon . They decided on an online platform that started in spring 2017. Texts, pictures and videos are then published on a monthly basis. The operators themselves refer to the project as a “label for content”. The name "Tegel Media" was chosen so as not to create the appearance of a publisher . Tegel Media was featured as a literary magazine in the Suhrkamp Verlag blog . Tegel is a district and the name of the airport in Berlin , which is located there and will be operated until 2020 , where the majority of those involved live.

content

The contributions come from, among others, Leif Randt, Jakob Nolte, Heinz Helle , Juan S. Guse , Max Kersting and Isabelle Graw . The media includes PDF files, images and videos as well as music by Manuel Bürger available for purchase on vinyl. The genres include travelogues , diaries , conversations , cartoons, and anecdotes . Nolte states that the texts could not only be literary but also journalistic. For Randt, the website should create a protected space for "narrative relaxation of the web world". He compares the style of the texts with the work of writers from the 1960s such as Peter Handke , Rolf-Dieter Brinkmann and Jörg Fauser , who “withdrew from storytelling” and were considered pop because of their reference to the present . The project has been compared to the pop literature of the 1990s as well as the aesthetics of early Internet sites.
