Send me a messageMeasuring less than one square mile, the island of Heligoland in the North Sea, just 30 miles off the north German coast, is an easily forgotten British colony.But, this Frisian (not German) peaking island of 3,000 inhabitants was part of the British Empire from 1814 to 1890.Support My ShowHeligoland had its own British governor (or.Lt. governor), its own flag incorporating the Union flag, and from 1867 issued its own stamps with Queen Victoria's head on them.During British rule, the island became a spa resort attracting the cream of European society.The laid-back colony, became a hub for German liberals, avoiding the more draconiangovernments in places like Prussia.One of these liberal was the poet, August Heinrich Hoffman von Fallersleben.Whilst staying on the island in 1841 he wrote a poem entitled “Das Lied der Deutschen”Put to a tune previously written by Joseph Hayden 40 years before, it has become the German National Anthem.In 1890 in a bizarre land deal, Britian gave up the island to Kaiser Wilhelm II's Germany in return for recognition of her colonial ambitions in Uganda, Kenya & Zanzibar.During both the First and Second World Wars the island was heavily fortified by the Germans.During WW2, it suffered from a 1,000 bomber raid from the RAF and after the war, in 1947 the British conduscted one of the largest ever non-nuclear explosions to destroy German fortifications once and for all (operation Big Bang).Nowadays, Heligoland, with a population of just over 1,000 is part of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein.Support the show

We have Julian Chisholm firmly in our sights and for good reason; he goes missing at exactly the right time and we've discovered he shares a very unusual jaw deformity with the victim. But there's a problem - the German police are convinced the Gentleman of Heligoland is between 45-50 years of age, and Julian Chisholm is only 30 when he goes missing. Surely that rules Julian Chisholm out......?   Contacts thegentlemanofheligoland@gmail.com ken.davies@gsemedialtd.com

Synthetic Dreams Podcast

Joining me on the Synthetic Dreams podcast this week Australian musician, Karen Vogt. Karen's experimental and ambient solo works are based around improvisation, often manipulating her vocals to add layers of emotional depth to her works. Vogt, who is based in Paris, spoke to me about the recording of her wonderful, improvised record ‘Waterlog', which deals with the grief she experienced following the death of her beloved cat. It's a truly wonderful album, that's full of depth and emotion, yet uplifting and comforting at the same time. We also discussed her time working with legendary Cocteau Twins member, Robin Guthrie, producer of her band Heligoland, which she co-founded back in 1999. Karen Vogt's ‘Waterlog' is available to buy digitally and on cassette, via Penelope Trappes' excellent record label Nite Hive  Head over to: https://nitehive.bandcamp.com/ For more information about Karen's work, visit: https://karenvogtmusic.com/ Karen Vogt - We Coalesce

On March 14, 2020, Dan Grec's Kickstarter will end. If you're listening to this before that date, buy Dan's book on Kickstarter. His book (and website) are called The Road Chose Me. If you're listening to this after March 14th, buy Dan Grec's book on Amazon. Why buy his book?  Because for 999 days Dan Grec drove through 35 of the 54 African countries. His book recounts his 3-year adventure.   In this 90-min podcast, we discuss: His road trip across Latin America. How he saved money for 4 years for this 3-year trip. Why he biked to work in Yukon's winter. Which were some of the toughest African border crossings. How he got (or didn't get) African visas on the fly. How much it cost to ship his truck across the Atlantic How many times he got malaria and how it was. What he thinks of South Africa's future. What makes Sudan special and unique. His speaking tour. What he's planning to do next. We discussed the Caprivi Strip. Here are the facts from Wikipedia: Caprivi was named after German Chancellor Leo von Caprivi (in office 1890–1894), who negotiated the acquisition of the land in an 1890 exchange with the United Kingdom. Caprivi arranged for the Caprivi strip to be annexed to German South West Africa in order to give Germany access to the Zambezi River and a route to Africa's east coast, where the colony of German East Africa (now part of Tanzania) was situated. The river later proved unnavigable and inaccessible to the Indian Ocean due to the Victoria Falls. The transfer of territory was a part of the Heligoland-Zanzibar Treaty of 1890, in which Germany gave up its interest in Zanzibar in return for the Caprivi Strip and the island of Heligoland in the North Sea. We also wondered where the expression "rest on your laurels" comes from. Simply put: the origins of the phrase lie in ancient Greece, where laurel wreaths were symbols of victory and status.

Today is November 1st, 2017 and our guests this week are: Steve Bunker of the Friends of Mallows Bay and Carrie Villar curator for the Ghosts of Mallows Bay exhibit at Woodrow Wilson House Mike Shuster from the great war project blog,    And Joseph Baar Topinka, Post Commander at American Legion Post 0488 in Riverside, Illinois.   WW1 Centennial News is brought to you by the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum and Library. I’m Theo Mayer - the Chief Technologist for the Commission and your host. Welcome to the show. [MUSIC] World War One THEN 100 Year Ago This Week [MUSIC TRANSITION] Today, we are looking at the war on the water. The Atlantic Ocean was a major factor in the war 100 years ago. It wasn’t just a military battleground but an important strategic pivot. Ships and mastery of the seas had been key factors in national strength for centuries. Fleets and armadas the stuff of legends... but the conflict on the seas during WW1 is unique and comes down to a life and death struggle between the need to move goods, materiel and men versus the threat of small, stealthy and deadly raiders - the U-boats of WWI. Like a small virus that can fell giants - the German U-boats are not just a threat to ships on the seas, but a deadly noose closing to choke the life out of nations. So Let’s jump into our wayback machine and head back to 1917 to see how all this lays out and plays out. [MUSIC TRANSITION] We’ve gone back in time 100 years and we are looking back across the waters of the year of 1917. In just the first four months of 1917, U-boat raids reduce the British grain supply to just six weeks by sinking 1,365 ships. The Kaiser’s Navy believes that by using unrestricted submarine warfare on all shipping, it can blockade England into surrender whether the U.S. intervenes in the war or not. They are killing transports faster that replacements can be built and they know they are hurting the brits - a lot! England imperial economy is hugely dependent on imports of food and raw materials,  and at the current rate of sinking it’s supply lines, it is quite possible the England and then the allies might lose the war… not to the millions of poor souls slugging it out in the trenches - but to an effective fleet of just a few hundred submarines... each typically only 214 feet long, carrying 35 men, 12 torpedoes, mines and capable of traveling underwater for two hours at a stretch. As America enters the war in April of 1917, the US Navy strategy is not focused on this threat at all. It's strategic focus is on building a POWER navy headed by giant battle cruisers and dreadnaughts… The Naval Act of 1916 authorizes the building of ten battleships and six battle cruisers -- 32 thousand and 42 thousand ton behemoths sporting massive 16" guns, supported by scores of cruisers, destroyers and new submarines. This is a big iron --- power strategy -- based on what is known as Capital Ships - ready to fight in the atlantic, caribbean and Pacific  - perhaps all at once… a prophetic vision for a quarter century later. But the real challenge and the task for the US navy just entering the war is protecting shipping lanes from the deadly stings of little raiders just under the surface. It’s an issue we need to address - not just for Brittain - but as our only way to move millions of men, equipment and supplies across the Atlantic in order to join the fight!   This is made very clear to Rear Admiral William Sims. he’s the president of the Naval War College and goes to Britain on the eve of America’s entry into the war to meet with the British Admiralty about strategy. In point of fact, the ship he travels to England on, the American Line's New York, is damaged by a submarine-laid mine as it approaches Liverpool. The Admiralty, pleads its case and makes clear that is is implementing a convoy system - something the US naval command does not believe in. This strategy requires lots of smaller ships -- primarily destroyers - to work as escorts. The British campaign for the US to refocus it’s shipbuilding on ships suited to that task of convoying. Sims, who is subsequently named commander of U.S. naval forces in European waters, becomes an early convert for convoys. On 14 April, just days after America enters the war - he cables Washington with his recommendations that the maximum number of American destroyers be made available immediately. He argues that the timely arrival of even a small number of escorts at this critical moment can have an immediate and strategically important impact on the war --  right now!! --- given the fact that it’s gonna take some time for the US to mobilize enough military land resources to have any other actual impact. There is pushback on this from Admiral William Benson -- Chief of Naval Operations and Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels who argue for putting more emphasis on armed merchant ships sailing independently, with navy patrolled sea lanes. However, Sims advocacy and additional diplomatic admiralty visits to Washington succeeds in getting twenty-eight American destroyers escorting convoys by the end of june and thirty five by end August 1917, rather than the Navy simply conducting patrols as had been the original plan.   Well, it turns out that the convoy system works - and works well - The positive results bring the Americans around - especially admiral Benson who reportedly "goes to the mat," with the American naval building priorities This ties into what we told you about in Episode 28, On Friday July 18th, 1917- President Wilson announced in the Official Bulletin that: Because of their varied contracts for shipbuilding, the yards can not carry out our program without the help of the Government; it has, therefore, been decided that the shipbuilding industry of the Nation shall be federalized. The administration appointed United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation is put in charge. Three days later - on the 21st. July 1917, Secretary Daniels orders construction of new battleships to cease. Priority is to be given to destroyers and other anti-submarine craft. He authorized construction of what would eventually total 266 destroyers.

It’s considered the "largest shipwreck graveyard in the Western Hemisphere… and now being advocated for and being considered by NOAA to become one of the most interesting national marine sanctuary in the united states. With us here in 2017 are Steve Bunker from the Friends of Mallows Bay, and Carrie Villar, who served as interim director of Woodrow Wilson House in washington DC a national trust for historic preservation historic site and carrie is also the curator for the Ghosts of Mallows Bay exhibit,. Welcome to both of you…. [exchange greetings]   [Steve, can you tell us a bit about how, why and who sunk all those ships in Mallows Bay?]   [I understand that the bay was salvaged for steel and other metals - tell us about that?]   [Since I’ve learned about it - Mallows Bay is on my list of places I want to see.. What is the visitor experience like?]   [The Woodrow Wilson house just opened an exhibit on this - and with us is Carrie Villar the curator for the exhibit - Carrie, how and why did the Woodrow Wilson House get involved? ]   [Carrie - Can you tell us a bit  about the opening?]   Thank you both for coming on the show!

Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day”, first celebrated on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of fighting during World War I. It became a national holiday in 1938 and in 1954 President EIsenhower officially changed the name to Veterans day incorporate the ideas beyond WWI. Memorial Day - that you probably think of it as the start of the summer season - focuses on veterans who paid the ultimate price, while Veterans Day - with its roots as a salute to our doughboys -  is a tribute to any American veterans—living or dead. It is our national salute to service. Great Britain, France, Australia and Canada also commemorate the veterans of World War I and World War II on or near November 11th: Canada has Remembrance Day, while Britain has Remembrance Sunday. Each country honors its veterans, and the armistice of WW1, in a slightly different way. France expelled an invader from its territory, and the tenor of commemoration there reflects that. Even the symbol of remembrance differs from place to place. The red poppy of flanders fields is common in the UK, Australia and New Zealand, Canada and America -- The French use the blue cornflower, whic – like the poppy – continued to grow in land devastated by war. No matter how our commemorations may differ, citizens from all across the globe will take pause on or around November 11th to remember the sacrifice of men and women in who serve their nations in the military. Events As we countdown to Veterans Day 2018, here are some things for you to participate in.   Ceremonial Groundbreaking for America’s WWI Memorial at Pershing Park in Washington DC Start on November 9, at 11am eastern with the ceremonial groundbreaking for the National World War One memorial at Pershing Park in Washington DC.

Many WWI related organizations have posted events in the national register. We have picked a few of them to tell you about...   NYC In the Big Apple, the famous New York City Veterans Day Parade is the largest Veterans Day event in the nation. The Parade takes place every November 11, rain or shine with activities commencing at 10am.  Over 300 units and tens of thousands of marchers assemble near Madison Square Park, including veterans of all eras, military units, civic & youth groups, businesses, and high school bands from across America.   Also in New York, on Thursday evening the 9th of November the annual Flanders Remembers Concert will present Distortion, a Hymn to Liberty on at the Kaufman Music Center in New York.  Commissioned by the Government of Flanders, the piece commemorates the Centennial of World War I, and the concert will benefit the United War Veterans Council.   Washington DC area Also on November 11th, Arlington National Cemetery will host its annual commemorations on Veterans Day. A prelude concert will begin in the Memorial Amphitheater at 10:30 a.m followed by a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at 11 a.m. Commemoration ceremonies are being held all over the country!

So a new word for hunting around and scavenging for something grew in popularity during WW1, the word is Scrounge! The war threw together a lot of cultures and classes who found themselves on common footing - equalized by the rigors of war - and as a result they traded ideas, ways and words! We’ve introduced words and phrases in this segment that made their way into English language or slang from French, Romany, Urdu and German. Srounge is a slang word that comes from a Northern British origin. It’s possibly an alteration of scrunge ("to search stealthily, rummage, pilfer") or  scringe ("to pry about"); or perhaps related to scrouge, to ("push, jostle").   Whatever its initial origin, Scrounging something up -- made its way into common use in the war that changed the world.

This week we are profiling the Gold Star Memorial at Guthrie Park in Riverside, IL -- with us tell us about the project is Joseph Baar Topinka, Post Commander at American Legion Post 488 in Riverside, Illinois.   Welcome, Joseph! [exchange greetings]   [Joseph, tell us a bit about the Gold Star Memorial at Guthrie Park-- what is its history?]   [You are one of the first 50 awardees for the program - how has this affected your community]   [What kinds of restorative work are you planning to do on the memorial? And how did the American Legion get involved?]   [do you have plans for a rededication?]   [exchange thanks]   That was Joseph Baar Topinka, Post Commander, American Legion Post 488 in Riverside, Illinois. We are going to continue to profile 100 Cities / 100 Memorials projects - not only awardees but also teams that are continuing on to round #2 which is now open for submissions.   So as we talked about last week - this memorial day weekend - if you want to do something for the doughboys -it’s easy - take a walk!  - Look around your town and find your local WWI memorial. I promise it’s there - or was.. Look near the your county or city court house, check your parks, if they are old - or even just have an old flagpole - look around your local school buildings, find your American Legion or the VFW post, or check markers of your local cemetery. When you DO find your WWI memorial, and if it needs some TLC, please go to WW1CC.org/100Memorials and see how you can start the ball rolling to get that memorial and the doughboys it honors some support. Have a great veterans day - and do wear sunscreen!   You can follow the link in the podcast notes.

The exhibit, called Dame De Coeur, is a tribute to the thousands of allied soldiers who fought and gave their lives for freedom. The piece is being done by director Bruno Seillier, who is very experienced at monumental projection mapping installations. Each night before the light show, the new film “The American in Paris: The True Story of the American Hospital of Paris in WWI” will be screened. The film tells the story of the American Hospital in Paris, from its start as a 24-bed facility for the expatriate community of Paris in 1910, to its dramatic expansion to a more than 2000 beds during the first world war. The projection show and film are expected to be seen by over 60,000 people, but there is a chance to see the film stateside: The Cultural Service French Embassy in Washington, DC is screening the film on November 6th, and tickets are still available. Follow the link in the podcast notes for details about both of these events. link:https://www.damedecoeur.paris/en/the-show-queen-of-hearts/ http://frenchculture.org/events/6473-americans-paris Special Daylight Savings Special A special reminder this week to prepare yourself for Daylight Savings, Actually - it’s backward from what you think - we are just about to head into DAYLIGHT STANDARD time. But in any case - when you wake up Monday groggy and annoyed at the seemingly random one-hour shift we tolerate every year, we have someone for you to blame: the Kaiser! Although some say it was Benjamin Franklin who first proposed the idea --- The Germans were among the first to institute Daylight Savings, and they did so in 1916, two years into World War One. The concept was meant to be a temporary measure during the war, a way of conserving energy and providing more usable hours of daylight by getting up later into the morning and going to bed earlier in the evening. The British, French and many others quickly followed suit, and Daylight Savings remained a staple of wartime life. Most countries dropped it after World War I, and it wasn’t until the next World War that Daylight Savings Time made its return in most of Europe, and America too. Read more about the war time application of daylight savings at the link in the podcast notes.   Link: http://online.wsj.com/ww1/daylight-saving-time https://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/history.html   Articles and Posts North Carolina Scholar As we move into our Articles and Posts -- this week at ww1cc.org/news there is an article courtesy of  the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources, the story of one North Carolinian who served in the war, but never fired a shot. Instead, Wilmington native Charles Jastrow Mendelsohn served as a cryptographer during the war period —someone who specializes in encrypting and decrypting sensitive information—. The entirety of his year-long military term was spent stateside at posts in Washington D.C. and New York City where Mendelsohn led at team tasked with decrypting intercepted German diplomatic correspondence. Read more about how a professor of ancient languages at the City College of New York helped the U.S. read the enemy's mail during WWI by following the link in the notes. link:http://www.worldwar1centennial.org/index.php/communicate/press-media/wwi-centennial-news/3374-wilmingtonian-decodes-german-world-war-i-correspondence.html The Buzz - WW1 in Social Media Posts That brings us to the buzz - the centennial of WW1 this week in social media with Katherine Akey - Katherine, what are your picks out of the great stories from social media this week? Hi Theo!   Motorcycle Club We have two really great articles to share today. We’ll start with a heartwarming story from Fort Wayne Indiana, which we shared on Facebook recently. Last Sunday, 75 trees were escorted by motorcade through Fort Wayne Saturday morning before being planted at Memorial Park. Warrior Breed Motorcycle Club organized the effort and were joined by police, fire and military personnel along the route. Memorial Park had, according to the article, fallen into a bit of disrepair, and the group was worried it would be repurposed. Eventually, 125 new trees will be planted in Memorial park, each dedicated to a soldier who gave their life in WW1. Warrior Breed Motorcycle club president Gary Perkey said, “A hundred years ago there was a committee, I’m sure, discussing Memorial Park and what they were going to do to memorialize these WWI vets and here were are 100 years later doing the exact same thing, having the same discussions and planting these trees one again.” It’s a great story about local remembrance of WW1 and how moving and impactful it can be. An official dedication is planned for this November 11th, so if you’re in the Fort Wayne area check the link in the podcast notes to learn more.   link:http://wane.com/2017/10/28/motorcycle-club-escorts-plants-trees-honoring-wwi-veterans/ Ships Ships Ships Finally this week, we’re going to go back to the top of the show with an amazing collection of photos from the Atlantic all about the war at sea during WW1. The Atlantic published a series of ten collections of photos back in 2014, at the very beginning of the centennial of the war and they are absolutely wonderful. The War at Sea series includes images of u-boats cresting over waves in the Atlantic, disabled ships in the Dardanelles being blown up, mines being dragged ashore in Heligoland, a delicate looking Curtiss AB-2 being catapulted off the deck of a warship, ship cats and lots of images of dazzle camouflage.

Heligoland: Britain, Germany and the Struggle for the North Sea, by Professor Jan Rueger

[Research] Professor Jan Rueger from Birkbeck’s Department of History, Classics and Archaeology has published a new book: Heligoland: Britain, Germany and the Struggle for the North Sea. Heligoland is a small island in the North Sea, but its diminutive size belies its importance in the history of Anglo-German relations. A British colony for much of the nineteenth century, the island became a metaphor for Anglo-German rivalry after Germany acquired it in 1890. Turned into a naval fortress under the Kaiser and again under Hitler, it was fought over in both world wars. Heavy bombardment by the Allies reduced it to ruins until the Royal Navy re-took it in May 1945. It was finally returned to the Federal Republic of Germany in 1952, and became a popular holiday destination. Tracing this long history of contact and conflict from multiple perspectives, in Heligoland Professor Rueger brings to life this fascinating and revealing microcosm of the Anglo-German relationship in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Heligoland: Britain, Germany and the Struggle for the North Sea is published by OUP and is available now.

It’s October 4 in the classic spy thriller ‘The Riddle of the Sands’ and our heroes Carruthers and Davies have finally got to the other end of the Kiel Canal at Brunsbüttel. Awaiting them is the mighty river Elbe, a first encounter (for Carruthers) with the ‘Sands’ - and also a personal enquiry from Clara Dollmann, a young modern German woman who Davies has taken quite a shine to. In what seems like a fair division of labour, Tim (notCarruthers) is going to spend a lot of time in this podcast talking about sporty women of the age - British, American and German. Meanwhile Lloyd gets to look over maritime charts to work out where we’re going, and what we’re going to come up against when we set out into the Sands for real in the autumn. PLEDGE YOUR SUPPORT at http://unbound.co.uk/books/riddle-of-the-sands We start with a reminder that Film Club is happening very soon now: there's still time to book a seat (02:43); Lloyd introduces Brunsbüttel and a famous daughter of the town, the heptathlete Jennifer Oeser (04:54); Tim takes the cue to talk about sporty women, starting with a description of the new German 'damen' of 1903 in Jerome K Jerome's 'Three Men on the Bummel' (05:35). We discuss what kind of woman Clara Dollmann is meant to be (07:34); cyclist Annie 'Londonderry' Kopchovsky as a model for the 'new woman' (08:18); how sports clothing drove new fashion trends for feminists (10:36); a few 'outdoorsy' American feminists Molly Childers might have known (13:50); Lady Henry and the Womans Signal feminist newspaper (14:30); was Clara rather shoehorned - or 'spatchcocked' - into this story? (16:03); a tenuous Heidi connection (17:03); a Mata Hari connection (20:17) Lloyd takes us out on to the Elbe and consults a few digital charts (23:52); we are diverted to Cuxhaven to talk about zeppelins (26:21); a surprise Childers connection with Cuxhaven (27:51); another diversion to Heligoland (30:04); a short talk about holidaying in Borkum from Club member Ed (33:22). Club business: Kevin on new women & bamboo bicycles (39:50); JerseyCityFrankie on the Asgard & fruit salts (40:59); Tony on head cheese (41:55); Jon on sausages & wurst (42.17); Liz on tin storage on boats (44:03); John on events in the South China Seas (45:45); 'Ahoy' to edwardianculture.com. Missions for next week: watch the film & help us to navigate the sands on the way to Wangerooge.

Abiogenesis:  Mineral, Animal, Vegetable.  Princeton's wordnet defines it:  "a hypothetical organic phenomenon by which living organisms are created from nonliving matter".  It is one of many questions that buoy origin myth; for me it is just fascination.Perhaps from a viewpoint of experience alone, using only information that one has sensed, a sort of solipsistic genesis could suggest where other life comes from and where humans come from.  Still, an assumption has to be made and credibility lent because no one (I've met) can reliably remember their own origin.  Funny thing, that.  This is the sixth episode.  Six was my favorite number in Latin.

This lecture examines poems which make reference to the Shipping Forecast, as broadcast by BBC Radio Four, including poems by Seamus Heaney, Carol Ann Duffy, Sean Street, Andrew McNeillie, and Andrew Waterman. The aim of the lecture is to consider how both the radio broadcast and the poems it inspired conceptualise the cultural geography of the British Isles. If culture is, as Wendy James has argued, 'adverbial' rather than 'nominal', what kind of cultural geography of the Isles is practised in the poems which draw upon the forecast's daily and nightly ritual of naming the sea areas around Britain and Ireland? How might this maritime and archipelagic imagination of the Isles be related to current post-devolutionary attempts to reconceive the British Isles, both politically and intellectually? All of the poems revel in the forecast's litany of names such as Dogger, Fastnet, Lundy, Heligoland and Finisterre, for example, which do not evoke places so much as they imply ideas of untapped spatial and cultural possibility within the British Isles. Might there be a utopian dimension to some of these poetic visions of the archipelago? On the other hand, some of the poems juxtapose domestic and maritime settings, and dramatise a tension between the safe and comfortable houses or beds in which listeners enjoy the broadcasts, and the exoticised coastal margins of the Isles in which the forecasts may be merely the 'cold poetry of information'.
