Litter broadcast (radio play series)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wurfsendung is a series of mini radio plays with a maximum length of 50 seconds that have been broadcast on Deutschlandradio Kultur since September 2004 and on Radiofeuilleton until June 2014 . There is no exact broadcast date, they are "thrown into the program" by chance. On February 25, 2013, the 2000th airborne broadcast was broadcast.

According to their own statements, the inventors were inspired by advertising, where a story has to be told in full in the shortest possible time. The content of the direct mail is mostly pure nonsense. In one of them, for example, the noises of a supermarket can be heard and then the announcement follows: “Mr. Dutschke, please 68”. Others are parodies of answering machine texts or station loudspeaker announcements.

The direct broadcasts should make full use of the possibilities of the radio medium and be produced at a high technical level. The format has already been adopted by other European broadcasters, including the BBC .

In 2004 the throw-out programs received an honorable mention at the Prix ​​Europa and the editor Nathalie Singer received the RADIOjournal-Rundfunkpreis for the development of the throw-out programs in 2005 . In the opinion of the jury, the direct broadcasts are "a radiophonic art form that is unparalleled in Germany".

Julia Tieke has been the head of the project since 2007, succeeding Nathalie Singer. Her team includes Clarisse Cossais and Matthias Karow .

Among the contributors are among Elke Naters as a writer of the series short texts , pair dialogues , rules of decency and Boris Aljinovic than the male speaker of the series Philosophical fish .
