CATEGORY: interview TITLE: SdK11 - Gwen Bingle about Fitness, Wellness and Body Concepts AUTHOR: Gwen Bingle INTERVIEWER: Daniel Meßner PRODUCTION: Daniel Meßner/Universität Wien YEAR: 2011 DESCRIPTION: Is the body technology or is it nature, is it mechanics or is it soul? In her project, Gwen Bingle examines the history of fitness and wellness: “Under the Sign of the Body: technology, commodification and embodied consciousness in late 20th century Germany”. She shows how various visions of the body are articulated in modern body management ethics and points out the shift from “I have a body” to “I’m a body”. In addition to that, technologies such as functional food promise to resolve the weaknesses of nature, in order to create an even better nature. Do these modern body management ideologies finally lead to a new soft commercial type of eugenics, “the survival (or the thriving) of the fittest, healthiest and most beautiful”?

Every episode plays from its archive, which this site does not copy; rights are as each archive states them. Nothing here is called public domain on this site's say-so. In the United States, sound recordings first fixed before 15 February 1972 have federal protection under the Music Modernization Act of 2018, for most until 2067 at the latest, so most American radio of the 1930s to the 1950s is not in the public domain there. Each set shows the licence, mark or statement its archive gives, and says whose it is. Horror, crime, war and westerns are for teenage and adult profiles, racist caricature for adults only, and children’s profiles hear what was made for children. More about these archives.
