Mike Litt in conversation with Ralf Brög

How's it going, Düsseldorf?

Our podcast "Alle Rhein" is our platform for all those who ensure that you are almost constantly surrounded by culture in Düsseldorf - whether on a small or large scale. Our host Mike Litt talks to his guests about the most exciting projects and, along the way, clarifies what artists, organizers and other creative people love about their city and: where they prefer to be in their private lives.
In Episode 37, Mike talks to Ralf Brög, multimedia artist.

No advertising in the subway station ... and art to boot! 

Is there anything like that outside Düsseldorf? Art on the track, that happens occasionally. But there's no advertising, and sound installations as unusual as the one at the Heinrich-Heine-Allee station on the Wehrhahn line are unique. Visitors from all over the world are thrilled by the underground sound experience in Düsseldorf. 

The multimedia artist Ralf Brög developed the concept and creates new sound experiences with artists again and again. Currently, until the end of January, it is the installation "Falschlicht-Projektionen" - in the truest sense of the word "cinema for the ears". Film scores and science fiction scenes are the focus here. For the Wehrhahnlinie, Brög has collaborated with musicians such as Gudrun Gut, Stefan Schneider and Kurt Dahlke.

How Ralf Brög developed the idea, how fruitfully it could unfold with the support of the city and where the sound journeys should lead in the future, he tells in the conversation of this episode!
