Berlin Idea Inspires Enthusiasm at the World's Largest Creative Festival In 1. Home 2. Current page: Entity Print Berlin idea inspires enthusiasm at the world’s largest creative festival in Austin, Texas Spacebuster and We Like America are nominated for the SXSW Place by Design Award © SXSW © Übermut Project, Foto: Kevin McElvaney More than 400,000 participants will gather between 9 and 18 March 2018 in Austin, Texas at South by Southwest (SXSW), the world’s largest creative and digital festival. Taking part for the first time: visitBerlin and the artist and architect collective raumlaborberlin. The collective’s innovative space concept Spacebuster by raumlaborberlin and the We Like America tour implemented as part of the Übermut project, places them firmly on the list of nominees at the sought-after Place by Design Awards – which will be awarded for the first time at this year’s SXSW Cities Summit. Berlin stands for freedom. The city is an inspiration, artist's workshop and studio all rolled into one for creative people and artists who set the trends of tomorrow in Berlin today. We will showcase this creative and free spirit at South by Southwest. Our city has already made a name for itself there: The Spacebuster has been nominated for the SXSW Place by Design Award. Burkhard Kieker, CEO, visitBerlin © KevinMcElvaney The Spacebuster is a typical American step van whose rear can be quickly transformed into an inflatable event room catering for more than a hundred people. The unconventional blow-up event blends in perfectly with its surroundings and creates a unique venue for all types of encounters. As part of the Übermut project, a visitBerlin and Hamburg Marketing initiative sponsored by the Federal Foreign Office, the Spacebuster went on a We Like America tour through the American Rust Belt in autumn 2017. Against the backdrop of a high-profile stage, concerts, presentations, workshops and film screenings alike fascinated audiences about Berlin creativity and stimulated exchange. © Übermut Project, Foto: Kevin McElvaney This is why the inflatable event space was invited to locations such as New York’s Central Park, the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis and the Architecture Biennale in Chicago. This year the We Like America project with the Spacebuster ranks among the six finalists of the first-ever Place by Design Award at the SXSW Cities Summit. The award honours innovative design in public spaces and will be presented on 13 March 2018.

Kennedy and Berlin Nicholas Labinski Marquette University Recommended Citation Labinski, Nicholas, "Evolution of a President: John F. Kennedy and Berlin" (2011). Master's Theses (2009 -). Paper 104. http://epublications.marquette.edu/theses_open/104 EVOLUTION OF A PRESIDENT: JOHN F. KENNEDYAND BERLIN by Nicholas Labinski A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Milwaukee, Wisconsin August 2011 ABSTRACT EVOLUTION OF A PRESIDENT: JOHN F. KENNEDYAND BERLIN Nicholas Labinski Marquette University, 2011 This paper examines John F. Kennedy’s rhetoric concerning the Berlin Crisis (1961-1963). Three major speeches are analyzed: Kennedy’s Radio and Television Report to the American People on the Berlin Crisis , the Address at Rudolph Wilde Platz and the Address at the Free University. The study interrogates the rhetorical strategies implemented by Kennedy in confronting Khrushchev over the explosive situation in Berlin. The paper attempts to answer the following research questions: What is the historical context that helped frame the rhetorical situation Kennedy faced? What rhetorical strategies and tactics did Kennedy employ in these speeches? How might Kennedy's speeches extend our understanding of presidential public address? What is the impact of Kennedy's speeches on U.S. German relations and the development of U.S. and German Policy? What implications might these speeches have for the study and execution of presidential power and international diplomacy? Using a historical-rhetorical methodology that incorporates the historical circumstances surrounding the crisis into the analysis, this examination of Kennedy’s rhetoric reveals his evolution concerning Berlin and his Cold War strategy.

  • The United States and the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games
    The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 20 (2009) Architects of a Masquerade Peace: The United States and the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games Sayuri GUTHRIE-SHIMIZU* Among international social movements that have endured into the present, few have more intimately associated themselves with peace and human soli- darity than the Olympics Games. Since their resurrection by French aristocrat Pierre de Coubertin in 1896, the Olympics have become entrenched in popu- lar imagination as a symbol of world peace and international brotherhood. Despite—or because of—this composite symbolism, the Olympic Games have been exploited to render their metaphoric power to other, often blatantly political, causes.1 Scholars and observers of the modern Olympics generally agree that dur- ing the movement’s fi rst half century, the Berlin Olympics of 1936 was the most egregious case of political manipulation and propagandizing committed by a host country. It was held in the immediate aftermath of the German re- militarization of the Rhineland, one of the opening gambits of Nazi military expansionism, which threatened the tenuous—and fl awed—post–World War I peace in Europe. The Nazis’ spectacular success in hosting the festival of peace increased the regime’s popularity at home and enhanced its prestige abroad. Because of the perverse irony of this achievement, the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games have been more intensely studied than others.2 From the beginning of the modern Games, held in Athens in 1896, the United States has been a crucial non-European player in the international Copyright © 2009 Sayuri Guthrie-Shimizu.
