     A reminder (or perhaps new knowledge) for you that the announcements on Berlin’s public transport are voiced by Philippa Jarke, a trans woman.

     “The brief was, after all, to find something that is not necessarily immediately recognizable as male or female on first hearing. So somewhere in between. For me as a Berliner, it is of course an honour to fulfill an official part of this city.”
