TRANSCRIPTIE

Ciao ,

Welkom, bij deze eerste internationale podcast van 1MEMO.

Mijn naam is Michel van der Burg.

Vandaag is het woensdag 14 februari 2024. Valentijnsdag.

Ik wandel in het Groene Hart van Nederland…terwijl ik deze eerste 1 memo podcast maak in het Nederlands.

Tja … wat is zo’n 1-memo ?

In ‘t kort : gewoon ‘iets’…
wat ik dagelijks publiceer .

Een foto, film – kort, lang – tekst, audio…

Niet persé dagelijks, dacht ik aanvankelijk…
toen ik daar aan begon.

Maar ik doe ik dit nu eigenlijk dagelijks , al bijna 10 jaar…

Gestart in juni 2014 met publiceren in het Engels….
voor een internationaal publiek, hopelijk…

De focus is altijd op visueel werk, meest film.

Nu ik graag podcasting toevoeg,
realiseer ik me plots
dat het grootste deel van mijn materiaal
in het Nederlands is – mijn moedertaal.

In filmwerk wordt dat zonodig vertaald, dus dat is geen probleem.

Maar een internationale podcast is anders…

Het podcasten hier zal in het Nederlands, Engels en Frans zijn.

Gisteren de première van de Engelse editie van deze post – en nu dan de Nederlandse première.

Ik zal de taal in de titels aangeven.

Tenslotte … waarom deze ① memo’s ?

Tja, voor een antwoord citeer ik hier graag de Nederlandse schrijfster Marja Pinckaers – uit haar boek 16 versie 61 :

‘Elke dag maak ik wat.
Dan is er ‘s avonds iets op de wereld
wat er ‘s ochtends niet was.

Of mischien toch,
maar moest ik het nog zoeken
en vond ik het •’

Bedankt voor het luisteren.

Ciao…

TRANSCRIPT

Ciao ,

Welcome , at this 1st international podcast ,
at 1MEMO.

My name is Michel van der Burg.

Today it’s Tuesday , Feb. 13, 2024 .
I am walking in the Green Heart of Holland…while making this first 1 memo podcast.

Well , what is a 1 memo ?

In short — It’s just a thing…I publish daily.
A photo, film, text, audio …
Not necessarily daily …

But I have been doing this daily , actually , for almost 10 years…now…

Started June 2014.
Publishing in english ….
for an international public , hopefully…

The focus is on visual work, mostly film.

Now that I like to add podcasting,
I suddenly realize , that most of my footage is in Dutch – my native language. In film work , that is translated , so , no problem.

However an international podcast is different .

Podcasting here will be in dutch, english, french .

Here first the english edition – tomorrow the dutch edition.

I will indicate the language in the titles.

So why these ① memo’s ?

Well , for an answer , I like to quote here the dutch author Marja Pinckaers ,

(my translation) :


Every day I make something.
Then in the evening
there’s something in the world
that wasn’t there in the morning.

Or maybe it was there,
but I still had to look for it
and I found it •

Thank you for listening ,
…ciao

Story now updated – with a portrait of Bobby and his parents in Bruxelles, 1941.

A new finding – published at the current 236 exhibition in Brussels – is the location were the family escaped – they were numbers 722, 723, and 724. The Rottenberg family jumped close to Houppertingen, just before the site Simon Gronowski jumped, before Borgloon. That map is showing in a recent video of the vernisage of the ‘236’ project:

Romain Baplu & Youra Livschitz • News From Belgium | 20230407

~ michelvanderburg


In the night of April 19-20 at 2 AM the Belgian partisans Romain Baplu, Albert Poncelet, Pieter Schepers (and M. Swinnen)* – operating in the Leuven Partisans group – attacked Transport XX just outside Leuven by building a barricade of tree trunks on the track at Korbeek-Lo, that slowed down the 20th Convoy of 1631 Jews in cattle cars, being deported from the Dossin barracks transit camp in Mechelen to Auschwitz , and thus helped many of the deportees to escape, jumping from the death train, between Korbeek-Lo and Tienen. That was the 2nd attack that night. Earlier , a first attack was performed before Leuven between Boortmeerbeek and Haacht by the three young Brussels’ heroes Youra Livschitz (Dr. Georges Livschitz ; aka Livchitz), Robert Maistriau, and Jean Franklemon, who liberated 17 people during an attack by opening one of the cattle cars.

Romain Baplu from Louvain (Leuven, Belgium) and Youra Livschitz (Dr. Georges Livschitz ; aka Livchitz) from Brussels were both reported on a list of hostages shot , published in the April 15, 1944 bulletin of News From Belgium : …
“A List of Hostages Shot — The names of 15 hostages executed in Brussels after the murder of a German soldier have been published:
Victor Jacobs, of Louvain; Michel Stockmans, of Hougaerde; Edmond Vertongen, of Linden; Désiré Regent, of Kessel-Loo; Julien Ameye, of Lans (France); Henri Michaux , of Herseaux; Maurice Knarren, of Brussels; Romain Baplu, of Louvain; Louis Dewolf, of Louvain; Désiré Lasterman, of Wesmael; Pierre Renis and Jean Simon, of Louvain; Léon Magne, of Nivelles; Joseph Nejszaten, of Sciepe; Albert Meurice, of St-Gilles, Brussels… …
Eight patriots whose names follow were recently shot down by the Germans in occupied Belgium: Albert Romain, of Bièvres; Henry Albert, of Haut-Fays; and Dr. Georges Livchitz, René Lachaud, René Brams, Richard Lipper, Jean-Auguste Leyniers, and René Joseph Emile Denauw, all of Brussels.”
