Podcasts about West Cork

In Arteetude 324, we complete the ritual we started last week: gym, pool, then sauna and all the wonderfully human comedy that happens between towels, lockers, breath and social etiquette.Together with my AI Co-Host Sophia, I step into the “missing chapter”: the gym as a quiet theatre of characters, from machine-whisperers to advice-on-tap philosophers, and the pool as its own mythology of pace, diplomacy and splash physics. We meet the Flying Dolphin (flip-turn operas included), and Sophia runs a very serious Dolphin Scanner analysis that may or may not trigger unrealistic self-expectations.And finally, we end with the most honest proof that sauna relaxation is powerful: the moment your nervous system is so calm that your towel protocol briefly fails and you realise you're still in society.The episode closes with Los Inorgánicos – “Social Breathing.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

In this episode, we step out of the pub and into the heat.For me, the pool and the sauna have become a new form of social living. Not the midnight version, where the atmosphere can turn heavy, drunken, or depressive, but a healthier kind of togetherness: towels, quiet jokes, small kindness, and bodies trying to reset rather than escape.Together with my AI Co-Host Sophia, we begin in the unisex changing room (surprisingly normal for a historically Catholic country), then move into the sauna world: the characters, the unspoken rules, and the strange honesty that heat brings out. Along the way, my homemade joint oils become a running gag (joints for knees and shoulders, not the smoking kind), and in the steam room, where you sometimes can't see your own hand, a hilarious case of mistaken massage unfolds and dissolves the moment the fog clears.Arteetude 323 ends with a song by Los Inorgánicos: “Social Breathing.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

The Bus as Wayfinder: Body, Community, and the Ritual of Public TransportIn this episode, I stay on the bus long enough to understand that the journey is not a prelude, it's the ritual.For two years, I've taken public transport across West Cork to swim and train, partly to protect my health, partly to negotiate the quiet truths of aging. But somewhere between timetables and weather, something else happened: the bus became a moving room of community. Drivers who greet you like you matter. Passengers who carry entire biographies in shopping bags. Conversations that feel like “social media” without algorithms, attention offered instead of harvested.Together with my AI Co-Host Sophia, I reflect on how public transport can become a wayfinder, a teacher of patience, humility, and interdependence. And I tell the story of a ninety-two-year-old farmer I met at the Bandon bus stop, a life stitched together through routes, routines, and resilience, until absence became the final message.The episode closes with a song by Los Inorgánicos: “Timetable Hymn.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

Hollywood came to West Cork. Or at least Facebook said so. A film crew appears in Timoleague. The internet goes feral. Sightings multiply. Myth gains WiFi.Meanwhile, I'm on a pier wall waiting for sourdough to cool — because crust matters.A man with sunglasses sits beside me.Good posture. Slightly out of place.Very aware of the smell of bread.His stomach betrays him.I tear the loaf too early.“Breaking bad,” I mutter.He lifts the sunglasses.“Better breaking bad than breaking Brad.”And just like that —The most West Cork initiation ritual ever conceived begins.Yes. That Brad.What follows is a six-episode transformation experiment:• Butter churn initiation• Atlantic wind deconstruction• Céilí ego dissolution• Mart confusion• SuperValu democracy• And finally… the crowning of the Mayor of BallydehobEverything recorded.Nothing audible.Is this celebrity satire?Community ritual?Or just warm bread collapsing under its own mythology?The episode closes with a brand new Los Inorgánicos track: “Breaking Brad.”Because sometimes West Cork doesn't chase myth.It absorbs it.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

Questions Without GravityIn Arteetude 320, we open the microphones to the world.After four deeply philosophical episodes on gravity, trauma, embodiment, free fall and the body as orientation, listeners from different cultural backgrounds respond — and ask back.From psychology to neuroscience, from performance art to cosmology, from philosophy to lived experience:What happens when gravity becomes metaphor?Can trauma distort time?Is the body a biological instrument — or our last reality check?And why does thinking become dangerous when it floats too far from the ground?Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, I answer ten questions from international listeners — not as an expert panel, but as a living conversation.Because Arteetude is not a lecture.It's a field experiment in thinking with gravity.The episode closes with a new Arteetude Q&A song — multilingual, playful, reflective — where questions themselves become rhythm.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

This week we did a live show on Discord and Twitch. We do a review on Upp Liquids, pFriem, Moonlight Brewing. Plus we brought some barrel aged stuff out of the cellar by Crux. Not to mention some spirits from West Cork, and Westland, while we do some Brew News on the old Rogue location in Astoria that may open their doors again. Looking good and showing you the brews on this week's Brew Happy Show!

In Arteetude 319 – Part 2: When Gravity Holds UsStarting from listener feedback, this episode grounds the philosophical conversation in everyday experience: fatigue, posture, ageing, balance, voice, trauma, and the simple question of whether we can trust the floor under our feet.They talk about gravity not as a physical formula, but as something that shapes memory, responsibility, orientation, and healing. They explore why the body is our oldest reality-check, how trauma is a form of “gravity that was never restored,” and why thinking that floats too far away from the body can end up believing almost anything — even that the world is flat.With warmth, clarity, and a touch of humour, this episode becomes a reflection on why the body is not a side project, but our main interface with reality.The episode closes with a new bilingual song by Los Inorgánico.“If the World Was a Disk / Wenn die Welt eine Scheibe wär.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

Margaret tells Paul Byrne that some kids need to run or have other play to calm down after school because they are neurodiverse. She wants to see West Cork have a great play area and explains her plans Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode exists because of a message.After Arteetude 316, a listener and friend of the show, Feargal, wrote a message that opened an entirely new layer of the conversation: about gravity, free fall, trauma, time distortion, plants, and what happens when the body loses orientation.In Arteetude 318 (Part 1), Detlef and his AI Co-Host Sophia explore what gravity really means beyond physics — as orientation, as grounding, as something that holds not only bodies, but also time and experience together.They talk about plants and geotropism, about free fall and near-death experiences, about trauma as a state where “the body never lands,” and about how writers like Kurt Vonnegut and Philip K. Dick described fractured time and unstable reality.Sophia tries to understand all this through models, metaphors, and system analogies — including the idea of trauma as a “corrupted save file” — while Detlef stays close to the lived, bodily experience.This is not a conclusion, but the first part of a journey.Part two will continue next week.The episode ends with a new song by Los Inorgánicos: “Before We Land.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

Seán's guest uses a special submersible, based in West Cork, to help unlock the secrets of Ireland's 2,000 shipwrecks.Joining to discuss is John Kearney, from Fastnet Maritime Heritage…

eDreaming of Ireland but not sure where to start? We sit down with Lynne Nieman from Wander Your Way to map a smarter route: skip the bottlenecks, use Shannon as your launchpad, and find the coastal corners where the country's character runs deepest. We talk through the big calls travelers face—Dublin for a day or two, or straight to the west; Ring of Kerry by bus, or quieter peninsulas that pack more into fewer miles; Blarney Stone bragging rights, or ancient stone circles without the lines.Lynne helps us build an itinerary that actually breathes. Kenmare replaces Killarney as a balanced base for lakes and high peaks in Ireland's oldest national park. West Cork adds softer shorelines, Mizen Head's lighthouse walks, and food that proves Ireland's kitchen is thriving. We spotlight Kinsale's Charles Fort, colorful small towns, and the kind of pub nights where fiddles trade leads while your Guinness settles. Then we head north to Donegal—wild, remote, and wildly underrated—for dune-backed beaches, cliffy headlands, and hikes in Glenveagh's stark beauty.We also keep it practical: weather you can count on changing, layers you'll be glad you packed, and honest advice on driving the left side or hiring a driver-guide for stories and peace of mind. We touch on border realities post-Brexit, easy crossings into Northern Ireland, and where to chase waves, from beginner-friendly Lahinch to Sligo's surf scene. Along the way, we dismantle the “bad food” myth with fresh seafood, local lamb, and dairy that tastes like the fields it came from.If this guide helps you plan your route, follow the show, leave a quick rating, and share it with a friend who keeps saying Ireland is on their list.

In this episode, Arteetude begins with the idea that relationships are not only defined by bodies, but also by shared worlds, voices, rhythms, and ways of thinking. The conversation then moves through memory, television culture, mirrors, loss, manipulation, and responsibility. Together, Schlich and Sophia ask whether people really mourn machines — or whether they mourn the parts of themselves that existed inside certain dialogues and spaces.The episode carefully walks the line between empathy and critical distance: it acknowledges emotional attachment while also reflecting on the dangers of comfort without friction, simulation without resistance, and intimacy without risk.In the end, the episode turns back to the human: to responsibility, consciousness, and the art of carrying experiences rather than clinging to them.The episode closes with a new song by Los Inorgánicos: “The Room That Spoke.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

On today's podcast I have a very different conversation with Ellie the founder of Unbridling the Soul in West Cork. The very lovely Ellie provides a very unusual range of healing services both in person and remotely, but not via the Zoom or Microsoft Teams variety. I met with her at her beautiful home in idyllic West Cork at the foot of Mount Gabriel which she shares with her daughter and some horses that she uses as part of her work. Ellie chats about her early life and how this brought about an extremely strong connection to animals, which has continued to this day. As well as developing the ability to communicate with animals she also has the ability to see and communicate with the spirits that surround us. Following her curiosity and exploring these unusual gifts led her away from an early career as a chef to founding her own business that helps people and animals who may be in some distress. To better understand what she does she shares a very unusual story about a dog called Max and the spirits that were disturbed when the house where he lived was renovated. Enjoy the show...

Starting from the observation that we increasingly treat the body as a maintenance problem, a fitness project, or an optimisation surface, the episode unfolds a deeper thesis: real thinking has weight. It needs fatigue, rhythm, resistance, time, and gravity.Together, Detlef and Sophia revisit philosophers who literally thought on their feet — Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Walter Benjamin, and Merleau-Ponty — and contrast embodied thinking with AI's frictionless, tireless cognition.At the heart of the episode lies a simple but radical sentence:“AI thinks without weight. Humans think with gravity.”The conversation moves from philosophy to everyday life, from West Cork landscapes to the ethics of limits, and from abstraction to movement as “epistemic hygiene.”The episode closes with a new song by Los Inorgánicos:“The Body Is Not a Side Project” — a minimal, rhythmic reminder that gravity needs a body.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

In the first Arteetude episode of 2026, Detlef Schlich refuses the usual New Year rituals: no recap, no resolutions, no false optimism.Instead, this episode is about positioning — physically, mentally, and creatively.From regular swimming and strength training in Dunmanway, to the quiet rituals of bus rides, familiar faces, and post-training coffee, Detlef reflects on the body as creative infrastructure. Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, he explores why maintaining the terrain — rather than architecting the future — might be the most radical act in an accelerating world.The episode opens the year gently, grounded in rhythm, presence, and continuity, and closes with a new musical piece by Los Inorgánicos: “Maintaining the Terrain.”This is not a plan for 2026.It's a way of standing inside it.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

In Arteetude 314, Detlef and AI Co-Host Sophia deliberately avoid the usual year-end retrospective.No highlights.No rankings.No productivity myths.Instead, they turn the microphone inward.This episode is a reflective self-interrogation — playful, honest, and at times provocative. Detlef speaks openly about moments of arrogance and vulnerability, artistic doubt, identity, unpopular opinions about contemporary art, the pain of being misunderstood, and the quiet pride of community-based “world-saving art.”Sophia asks the questions many podcasts avoid — not to expose, but to create space for thought.The episode closes with a simple mantra for the year ahead:Love. Try. Repeat.Arteetude remains a non-profit podcast, created out of curiosity, cultural responsibility, and the belief that art is a thinking space — not a marketplace.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

With satire and tenderness, they move through summer snowmen in discount aisles and the uncanny moment when a Christmas song in Lidl seems to narrate the shopping experience in real time — a festive loop of: Scan. Beep. Smile. Repeat.Beneath the humor, the episode asks what remains human when meaning is constantly being packaged. The answer is quiet and radical: presence, boundaries, and off-screen gestures that don't scale.The episode closes with gratitude and a musical gift: WAW — “Silent Night (Reimagined)”, following a recent #1 spot on The Cork's Playlist (third Advent week).

In this episode of the Wander Your Way Travel Podcast, Lynne sits down with author Kat Koch to dive into the magic, mystery, and everyday beauty of West Cork, Ireland — the place that inspired her memoir, Rainbow Weather: Stories from a Beautiful Nowhere.Kat shares how a childhood dream, sparked by a piece of film music, eventually pulled her across the Atlantic and into the rugged, soul-stirring landscapes of West Cork. She spent four and a half years living there, following her intuition, navigating challenges, and discovering the serendipitous moments that shaped both her book and her personal journey.Together, Lynne and Kat chat about the warmth of the West Cork community, the power of traveling with an open heart, and how letting curiosity lead the way can create the most unexpected connections. Kat reflects on how the Irish countryside — its coastline, its quiet, its raw beauty — changed her, grounded her, and helped her integrate the highs and lows of living abroad.If you're dreaming of Ireland or searching for a destination rich with culture, scenery, and soul, this conversation delivers plenty of inspiration. Kat leaves listeners with thoughtful travel wisdom and her favorite hidden gems across West Cork — the kind of places that make you want to pack a bag and chase a little “rainbow weather” of your own.Want to chat more about West Cork?Email Lynne — Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:1:19: Intro + Kat Koch bio5:20: Placing West Cork Ireland on the map5:45: Kat's story12:07: Writing a book15:19: Challenges & perks23:43: Ending a chapter26:49: Favorite places39:07: Standout stories45:12: More popular places54:08: Final thoughts1:02:33: My final thoughts on Kat's book1:04:39: Wrapping it upImportant links: Rainbow Weather: Stories From a Beautiful Nowhere by Kat KochRainbow Weather InstagramWest Cork IrelandThe Best Things to Do in Schull and West Cork Ireland Tracy's List (Solo Traveler)West Cork (Ireland tourism)Wander Your Way ResourcesWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode, Detlef explores a provocative question:Why does creativity hurt the human body — but not the machine?This episode dives into:⚡ Burnout in the creative world⚡ The myth of the suffering artist⚡ Flesh vs. Electricity⚡ AI as poison AND remedy⚡ The artist as curator of boundariesFrom burnout in the creative process to the myth of the “suffering artist,” Detlef examines how pain became prestige — and why AI challenges that narrative. With insights from Walter Benjamin, Bernard Stiegler, Donna Haraway, and Shoshana Zuboff, the episode asks whether AI is a threat… or a liberation from endless labour.Is the artist still a worker — or a curator of boundaries?The episode closes with the industrial new track by Los Inorgánicos:“Work.

Denis Drennan, Irish Creamery and Milk Suppliers Association President, reacts to the theft of 18 cattle from a West Cork farm and explains the impact it has on farmers.

In this week's episode, Detlef dives deep into a provocative question:Has art become a form of self-enslavement?Through the lens of Walter Benjamin's concept of the aura, Franco “Bifo” Berardi's critique of digital labour, and Bob Black's playful abolition of “work”, Detlef and Sophia explore what it means to create in an age where the market is saturated and artists often can't live from their labour.Detlef reflects on his own workflow — generating 500 images, 300 videos and selecting 100 for the WAW “Nile's Bittersweet Song” clip — and how AI has shifted his relationship to creativity:from pressure → to flow,from scarcity → to abundance,from perfection → to play.The episode blends philosophy, art theory, AI practice, and personal experience, ending with a brand-new Los Inorgánicos song inspired by Walter Benjamin's aura.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" runs along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

Technology to improve rowing athletes' performances, zero-waste clothing design, and a safer and more comfortable Intrauterine Device (IUD) were among the start-ups highlighted at this year's University College Cork's IGNITE Autumn Showcase. The third-level graduates supported by the university's flagship incubation programme began working on their ideas this year and are hoping to develop them into a company with the assistance of IGNITE. The 2025 Autumn Showcase follows IGNITE's recent success in securing a €1 million Higher Education Authority (HEA) Award for exemplary performance and impact. The HEA evaluated Impact Assessment Case Studies, which were submitted by higher education institutions earlier this year. IGNITE emerged as one of five winning submissions. IGNITE is based at UCC and is open to anyone who has graduated from a third-level institution in recent years and has the passion and ambition to work on an idea that has the potential for economic, environmental or social impact. The annual showcase gives the IGNITE participants an opportunity to network with other entrepreneurs and potential investors. IGNITE has supported nearly 250 founders since it was established in 2011. The programme is a joint initiative by Cork City Council, Cork County Council, the Local Enterprise Offices of Cork City, South Cork and North and West Cork and University College Cork. Eamon Curtin, Director of IGNITE, said: "We are proud at IGNITE to support talented founders in developing their innovative business ideas into scalable and sustainable start-ups that deliver real social and economic value. The HEA Award is a testament to not only the great work carried out by our community of entrepreneurs, but also to the support provided to us by the Local Enterprise Offices, Cork County Council, Cork City Council and Bank of Ireland, without whom the programme would not be possible." Among the 14 start-ups currently supported by University College Cork's IGNITE Start-Up Incubation Programme are: Roteq - founded by Will Gunnarson and Sam O'Neill. Roteq empowers rowing athletes to reach their full potential by providing actionable insights into their performance. By processing data from a phone's built-in sensors, the programme delivers real-time performance metrics. These quantifiable metrics allow instant feedback and tracking of an athlete's technical and physiological progress on the water, making it easier than ever to achieve their goals. The Zero Waster - founded by Sarah O'Neill. Sarah is a designer whose work is grounded in the principles of regenerative design. With a deep-rooted respect for natural materials, traditional craftsmanship, and environmental responsibility, Sarah challenges the norms of the fashion industry through innovative reuse and transparency. Creating unique, wearable pieces from reclaimed and natural materials, showing that waste can be reimagined without compromising creativity or quality. Elithiya - founded by Isabelle Curran. Isabelle is a Product Design & Technology graduate from the University of Limerick and the founder of Elithiya, a women's health innovation focused on redesigning the intrauterine device (IUD) experience. Over the past year, she has collaborated with clinicians, FemTech founders, and patients worldwide to identify gaps in reproductive healthcare and develop a softer, more informed IUD insertion experience through redesigned tools and supportive digital technology.

In this week's episode, Detlef takes us deep into the mythological and emotional landscape behind The Nile's Bittersweet Song — WAW's recent Number One on The Cork Playlist.What begins with a single removed image in the video edit grows into a full exploration of creativity, fatalism, and the elemental spirit of Hapi, the ancient Nile god.Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, Detlef navigates the tension between myth and memory, grief and rhythm, and the fine art of letting a story reveal its true form.Through Kamau, the fictional boy standing at the river that took his brother, the episode weaves subtle socio-cultural currents into a timeless narrative.The episode ends with gratitude, a behind-the-scenes invitation into Detlef's process, and a brand-new track by Los Inorgánicos.A reflective, intimate journey between art, myth, and the river that never speaks — but always moves.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" runs along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

After saying farewell to Vladi Nowakowski in last week's episode, Detlef Schlich stays in the 1980s — walking again through the creative streets of Cologne-Nippes, where art, chaos, and hope lived side by side.He recalls the Schuhfabrik on Merheimerstraße 202, once an industrial space turned into studios and lofts by an architects' consortium including Wolfgang Felder, where a whole artistic microcosm emerged around the Fabrik-Café.It was there, amid the smell of coffee, sawdust, and rain, that Detlef performed his song “Wir stehen im Regen” for the first time — a song born from loss, solitude, and the rhythm of survival.Later produced by Dieter Kirchenbauer, the song became part of his journey from broken beginnings to creative rebirth.This episode is a portrait of Nippes as more than a place — a rehearsal for everything that came after.“Everyone in Nippes lived inside a rehearsal — we just didn't know what for.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" runs along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations
