i use my you plants on a daily basis that i hope to mark the human body and to connect people more effectively. i hope that this will make us more ethical persons what would life be like as a cyborg and what do you think will happen society terms of the human race we need to upgrade i think it's only the beginning of this cycle works human machines starting february first on t w. i ever want to welcome to another edition of your own max i'm your host meghan lee we have got lots to celebrate on today's show here's a look at what's coming up. when the shooting tradition we visit the venice

carnival in taste some very special pastries. royal jubilees beatrix a former clean up the netherlands celebrates her eightieth birthday. and old fashion sebastian shot up face with the technique of a bygone era. well it's that time of year again in venice where the city's streets and canals are filled with a mass to revelers an elaborate costumes carnival or kind of volley has the nation's call it is in full swing for the next two weeks for visitors it's a feast for the eyes and for their taste buds as well special pastries big just for this occasion are on offer all over town and of course your own max was on hand for the opening ceremonies that with a view of the action from the water. one of the world's most famous water parangs the historic vote procession on the rio. he cannot actually officially open

the carnival in venice around one hundred twenty boats and gondolas floated along the canal. every year thousands of visitors from italy and abroad come to see the waterborne spectacle. and it's a sample of venice is just always beautiful we come here often with the light and so colorful the picturesque and vibrant. colors so warm hearted. a day venetian carnival can demand a lot from the visitors but the venetians know how to party zone and heart. and sweetly and. all over town pastry shops and cafes are selling for ten italian carnival fritters. because they say they still think for the summer more davos but it's a very busy trying to place to shop when everything revolves around these last accountable

treats during the last the economy at its peak that we turn out to ten thousand feet telepath a good image or look at about it antonio salvador south runs one of the city's best known pastry shops he also makes another cannibal favorite golani angel wings ribbons of don't twisted deep fried and dusted with counted sugar critelli are said to have originated in venice you can have a plain all filled for instance with chocolate was a bio name on line to custard. really fast or to whom yet if the no is similar to what's in the cream puffs it contains not as a big somewhat startling baked so there's a hollow space inside. this is what it looks like inside. it up. and that it might want to be one with build its creed it will. i couldn't believe that. these are just not a not for calorie counters but after

a long day of dancing and carousing revelers can get a big package. a little out of something sweet is always good and when it's cold out it tastes even better. one of the highlights of the opening weekend is the nighttime carnival water parade of the rio de candidates you. may see as procession is inspired by a circus the floating parades number among the carnivals oldest traditions. mr nation kamma from i think year before pinsent story where divination decided to make this bar a day to celebrate their lives but the way in the bottle of weapon. was quite mean for him but anyway symbolic in

a way and so we decided to see your figure to me propose like a lot of thinking we do in the county about the edge over construction a wider range of anything live in the past. and people who just couldn't get enough in the evening. can come back for more the next morning the border parades go on for two days. antonio salvador said also enjoys the opening festivities even if he's hardly got time for. perfectly rigid to depart the fortunately our bake shop is working at full tilt i must get back and see the golani and for delays turned out well. the city's bakeries and cafes are braced for an onslaught of sweet tooth revelers and. free telly are just as much a part of con. well here is the cost to me and the box. when you

smell it too when you taste it it's carnival it's not carnival without fifth. this year and is conical last for seventeen dollars and as usual it's a feast for censors. it certainly looks like a fun party there in venice in the mean time the dutch royal family is also in a cellar retore mood as queen beatrix gets ready to mark a milestone birthday she's turning eighty and can boast a lifetime of experience beatrix retired from her royal duties as queen five years ago passing the torch on to her son villa but that doesn't mean she's disappeared from the hearts and minds of her fellow dutch citizens. the few macqueen of the netherlands is hugely popular with the dutch

a reputation as very disciplined and dedicated means she still held in high regard . beatrix was born gendry thirty first nine hundred thirty eight the first daughter of queen you yawn of the netherlands and prince ben a childhood in canadian exile during the war and at home was happy we knew yana gave her and her three sisters the freedom to be children and i'm criticizing other royal houses talk so much condescendingly of the bicycle monarchy they see queen beatrix as mother riding around on a bike the worlds were very touchy are very close to the people. even as crown princess beatrix made it clear that she had her own ideas and the will to act for example with her choice of a husband in one thousand nine hundred sixty five she got engaged to a german diplomatic clowes for moms and they married the following year not a sedan. but dutch popular sentiment. against welcoming the german into the royal

house the festivities were overshadowed by street protests but in time prince klaus became a real favorite with the dutch the couple had three sons. in one thousand eight hundred be a trick his mother queen yana. beatrix reigned of queen for thirty three years at first she wielded political influence and responsibility for forming new governments later these powers work or tailed by parliament. in the beginning of her reign people found that she was meddlesome just didn't just watching every detail everything on politics alone and they didn't like that too much because and she looked a bit at a distance you know it drops. to near to me but that changed over the tauren when especially with her. personal

tragedies and her lawyer. the first personal tragedy came in october two thousand and two when her husband prince klaus of the netherlands died after a long battle with unless this was a severe blow to the queen. she suffered another tragedy in twenty twelve when her second son freezone was buried in an avalanche while skiing and spent months in a coma you know because twenty thirteen the royal house announced prince freeserve died it was a difficult time for the royal family. would be the accident prince freeze was admired by the people in the middle as she stood and we resort to tragedy in or calls but she hold all and held all men and she went on going to work and be just as folks that she was. before. it wasn't long

before beatrix had resumed her fishel duties in full. in twenty thirteen at the age of seventy five be a trix pass the crown on to her eldest son much as she had received it from her mother in one thousand nine hundred eighty it is meant to torch with complete confidence i shall be handing the sovereign's office over to my son prince villa alexander on april thirtieth from one year. for the first time in over a century a man ascended to the dutch thrown king villa alexander will go to europe it's a great honor to succeed my mother and for us to serve our country it would motivate them even more since i have to hating princes beatrix has been helping out the royal couple as official appearances. and she had a daughter in law queen maxima another most popular members of the dutch loyal fan the does it cost us what's characteristic of beatrix is this great love she had for her husband and has her family in this country among the steadfastness she has

she's always been a great personality. one of the president's cut. above all princes beatrix is enjoying her retirement and spending more time with her family. and speaking of royalty british prince william and his wife kate are in sweden bidders visiting their swedish counterparts and taking in some sport also trees in the warsaw are experiencing their fifteen minutes of fame fluffs quite a gem has been found in russia more on those stories coming up in today's express. on tuesday prince william and his wife catherine the duchess of cambridge flew to sweden's capital stalker right away they took in a game of brandy similar to hockey the royal couple took the. but unity to try it out for themselves. even though katherine is expecting her third child in

april william and catherine will spend a total of four days travelling around sweden and norway. in poland's capital warsaw a sculptor who has created a fairy tale square from tree trunks the figures were inspired by a children's t.v. show called nice shot tech for teddy floppy ear the series has run since the one nine hundred fifty s. and its chief cult status among poles i'm chasing bakshi carved out several familiar characters with a chainsaw so you some of your so many amazing emotions of joy expressed by the inhabitants really emotional wow moments what. someone finally thought of that super how beautiful something like that remains in my memory you don't know what is in. the trunks or from trees that had been damaged in a storm last year and were due to be cut down. on

an almost emerald has been discovered in russia's ural mountains the uncle gemstone weighs over one and a half kilos and is fourteen centimeters in length it's the launching stone on earth to the mine in a decade. we immediately realized the size of the stone well sure the world it's estimated to be worth nearly sixty thousand euros urals mock the border between asia and europe known for the high concentration of gems arms. the german painter sebastian shridhar is attracting more and more attention on the international art scene and as one gallery director puts it schrader as works are firmly set in the in-between transition meaning his figures are captured. both the before and after while the berlin artist paints with or oil on canvas and his

subjects are mostly men in dramatic poses we met up with him in a studio in berlin to talk more about his style. sebastian scada is searching for the secrets of painting using to follow the latest trends the young artist works like an old master he has faith in the power of painting. the painting should stand on its own i have no concept in a message i don't think something up and then follow that through. fool instead i supply one part of the time and then try to get another part to come on it's something i can figure out which was voted over by leave things to chance. and secretly i hope that the pictures are smarter than i am but more goes into them

that i'd never even thought of doing. for him is like an adventure a journey taken with paint and canvas sebastien scott as often surprised himself with how his works turned out but he's a master with brushes and paint and retains a close connection to the history of the. early work was cold spots is or black square. this is a convenient method of his combined at the bottom with this figure in a melancholy pose which has a tinge of alderney about him to be might say it was in part the melancholy attitude towards modernism for the most sometimes i would. define convention. doing things that make no sense describe those pictures are counter images to today's hectic world their images of rebellion. does modesty for me it

was important to there be a kind of refusal implicit in this a questioning of why people are always so active these days why there's no alternative and what was i listen to just start to not be a part of it off but just stick with what is important to you in this one but. ironically these pictures of denial are especially popular and places of prosperity felix robbins is a wealthy entrepreneur based in london and a collector of sebastian charters works. there is a link between what we've got from the past today. so we kind of need to. works contemporary works of today that reflect today and sebastian falls right in back of your of message and quality. in with the rest german painting is enjoying a boom abroad especially works from what's become known as the new light six cool

sebastien chad has also benefiting from the success even though he studied art and berlin not like his pictures are always set in closed undefinable spaces like figures of baroque painting the men depicted in them are being used in intense light. doesn't use guns boosts if i consciously avoid using the illusion of space there are always two dimensional card which will never see a german forest apparent as a background in my works it's the avoidance of telling a story and shrinking things somehow but that's what it's creating a theatrical stage and concentrating on human existence constantly. idle people in the odd poses in sébastien spot as new as works they begin to disintegrate instead of illustration these works border on abstraction. the artist has a chronic liar and an age of uncertainty blundering between painting traditions between representation and abstraction pursuing but one passion the play with shape

and color and accepting the result whatever it turns out to be. every week we bring you five fun facts and our series high five and today we are going to take a look at some of the more unexpected activities that can be enjoyed underwater so grab your wetsuit and snorkel and let's dive in here are. five activities you probably never thought could be done underwater. for some musicians performing in front of an audience is like taking the plunge into cold water but that's literally the case for a danish group between music creators of the uk or sonic project number five in our list of unusual underwater activities is playing music. each musician occupies his or her own tongue here they hold their breath and move as if in slow

motion their instruments are all custom made for metals but i am prone to rust. watching fish swim around an aquarium isn't the most exciting and statement but looking at plants in an aquarium is really plumbing the depths of number four in our list of activities that can also be performed on the water is gardening. actor skating is the name of this and leisure activity in which fish only gets in the way to go to create beautiful underwater landscapes in an aquarium. most people get dressed for dinner not undress but then this restaurant in brussels is no ordinary establishment. a third spot in a ranking of unusual underwater activities it's going out to eat the pearl is

a restaurant located five meters under water in this round capsule form a food is served by waiters indicting costumes. these works of art are enough to take your breath away especially feel forgotten your oxygen tank in second place and a visit to one on the water museum. the museum atlantico lights off the coast of the spanish island of lands or rolls of. its europe's only underwater sculpture museum the brainchild of produced artist jason they can tell you that the art works change with time and creates an artificial reef that attracts marine life. this couple is ready to take the plunge but we haven't begun that already own

number one activity you probably never thought could be done under water is getting married exchanging vows on the water has become a worldwide trend. this company's getting peeks at an aquarium in london both the minister and against remain on dry land the benefits of marrying in water the groom can easily sweep his bride off her feet but there are drawbacks to. this couple had to fend off an attack from a jealous or perhaps just hungry on the. right and finally isn't it the case that you always lose something when you go on vacation and if it's your camera then it's especially heartbreaking because you lose all of those fantastic moments that you documented well last september a ten year old boy lost his camera while on vacation with his parents on the

british coast but thanks to the efforts of the german maritime search and rescue service and with a little help on the internet this story. has a very happy ending. this is the moment ten year old william has been waiting for he's travelled all the way from a small town in eastern england to the wagner sea in northern germany. after fines or germany and taking a ferry to the island of pelvis he and his family are walking seven kilometers through the mud flats their destination the little island off of the hawk and all this just to retrieve a camera because it really special now but. surely coming. last year from my great friend that so that's very special to. last september william and his parents were visiting a bay on the eastern coast of england while playing william sent his action cam

down on a stone and forgot it. it got washed away and embarked on a journey across the north sea the german maritime search and rescue service reconstructed its route i figured a camera had traveled some nine hundred kilometers before washing up on suit of august two months later because the memory card was still intact local residents were able to post the video material on the internet and the search for the owner of the gap german and english media began reporting on the find which is how a friend of william's parents heard about it is something to remember because you know he can do it all our friends at work and his friends at school and his teaches they're all very interested so he can take this back. and the memories and of course the video from the program so you can share when he's older he can say this

is the adventure i was all. that we used to be had. i. hope the day anti-pot no hold on to the hawks residence but williams camera was found by holders fall the hole and who was on the island helping out. a good. q do. you have a. little bit. of this is a good. time stonehenge where william and i'm teasing question cam have been reunited. with the little. things. because they. really didn't have to how it was that time but they did some really happy about. it's a happy ending to
