In the archiv, part of the ETH zurich, the film «Mein 
Gedächtnis beobachtet mich» by Eran Schaerf and 
Eva Meyer, realised for an exhibition dedicated to jewish, liberal sexual scientist Magnus Hirschfeld (Berlin 2008) is screened and in addition live-streamed 
to Cabaret Voltaire. The questions asked in the movie about how the memory of the destruction of 
Hirschfeld‘s work is constituted and about the creating and passing on realities of images and the 
memory‘s reception are together with reflections 
on identity, non-identity, diversity and memory, with 
sounds and scenes of showing and hiding, taken 
into the «Archiv für Zeitgeschichte», which gives access to around 400 estates, archives of institutions, 
records of oral history and collections of sourcematerial to a wide spectrum of themes from nineteentwenties up to the present.
