taking into account the special intricacies of local speech in Switzerland in relationship to standard German and to the many dialects that exist in Switzerland not forgetting the high percentage of foreigners living in Basel who have to navigate all these linguistic differences and wonderful complications - I set out to make a series of about 20 mini-interviews in regard to Basler-Ditsch.
there is also a walll installation based on the participation of visitors with the self-evident title:
Bitte schreiben Sie all jene Basler Ausdruecke an die Wand, die Nicht-Basler kennen sollten. / Please, write down all those Basel -specific ideoms that people not from Basel should know.
