The BGRI Exodus: A Mosaic of Memories

The BGRI Exodus: A Mosaic of Memories

In this new SB Campus Radio episode, we focus on memories that we leave behind when we move away. The Ben Gurion Research Institute (BGRI) is soon leaving its old building in favor of a new one. The old structure, however, houses many stories and experiences, both as an academic institute and in the David Ben-Gurion Archives. These stories were uncovered while talking to former and current members of faculty, administration, and students, about their experiences working and living in this most peculiar and unique old building. We have compiled these precious stories into a Mosaic of Memories.

This podcast was produced by Nick Duppen, Samuel Dotse Nomo, Trishla Vikas and Kofi Akodwaa-Boadi, as a final task in "BGU Radio Academy" course. We would like to acknowledge Mr. Eyal Briman for technical support, and Prof. Simon Barak and Dr. Buzi Raviv, our course instructors. We are most grateful to Prof. Avi Bareli, Prof. Paula Kabalo, Mikhal Moyal, Reema Diab and Jaydeep Prabhu for their contribution. The soundtrack was collected from Artlist.io with license. If you enjoyed our podcast, please rate it and share. Thank you and have a great day!
