Fielou – Memories to listen to
With Fielou, my goal was to capture memories through voices: parents, grandparents, and relatives could record stories, personal anecdotes, or messages. I then refined these recordings with technical optimisation – using automatic sound enhancement and manual editing to remove slips of the tongue or background noise.
In addition to families, I also expanded the concept to daycare centres in collaboration with an audio agency. For example, stories could be recorded and shared as a secure podcast for parents - whether it's someone reading aloud or providing information about the daycare centre.
A heartfelt project on hold
However, during implementation, it became apparent that the ongoing hosting costs and technical requirements were too high for many families and institutions. As a result, Fielou is currently on hold. But I haven't completely abandoned the idea – I can well imagine reviving the project in a new form in the future.
Experiences that continue to have an impact
Working on Fielou gave me valuable insights into the world of private podcasts: from technical audio editing and organising upload processes to managing several podcast channels at the same time. Today, this knowledge flows into my services as a virtual assistant – especially in the area of podcast management for small companies and self-employed people.
Keen to start your own Fielou project?
Even though Fielou is officially on hold, we can still work together on a custom project if you're interested. Feel free to drop me a line if you'd like to find out more.
