every week and always looking to the future dot com science and research for. every journey begins with the first step and every language but the first word which can be. eco is in germany to learn german why not learn the simple online on your mobile and free shop for d w e learning course you can speak german to me to see. our want to log on to another edition of your own max i'm your host meghan lee as always we have got a packed show in store for you here's a look at what's coming out. alive and kicking scottish can simple minds are back
11:31 am
with their new album. sacred spaces of there's fresh harbor for the combines the major religion. and healthy and clean clogging is the new fitness trend from sweden. there are songs that embody the lifestyle of an entire generation and the scottish band simple minds has a song like that in their repertoire don't you forget about me for kids growing up in the one nine hundred eighty s. that hit brings back tons of summer memories and i speak from personal experience well don't you forget about me was made even more famous as the theme song to the hollywood movie the breakfast club but simple minds success didn't stop with just that one song in their forty year history they've had countless number one albums and they've sold more than sixty million records and now they've just released
11:32 am
a new album and of course your own max was on hand to have a listen first hand. simple minds have been performing for over forty yes and they're still mindful and lead singer jim carrey's forces barely changed since they started out. magic the first single from their new album between jim carroll sings about the band's beginnings the magical yeah. i thought. in one thousand when we didn't know anyone in the band we didn't know anyone who wrote a song would suddenly didn't know anyone that had. a record deal been in glasgow
11:33 am
then the chance of being a rock star it would pull status as being an astronaut. but we believed that there was something there of this magic lyfe. the new album comes on the heels of an acoustic project in which the musicians rediscovered themselves and their music the new tunes sound emotional and powerful the band members followed that instinct. to go. live some things you have it and i do you think is good but not the timing but it just felt in the right place and we were gone once we committed to stopped that . when you go to war cure all of just sleeves and you go in and you just you work
11:34 am
on a boat. and you get a boat eight sway you think really good ones but. the only. thing. is that the. smartest simple minds biggest hits were one thousand nine hundred finds don't you forget about me one of the few songs i had written themselves it is number one in the u.s. and canada left its mark on a generation of music. that took the doors off the hinges blew the door wide open and and then m.t.v. and all the stuff that didn't exist suddenly was taking you into. every bottom the world every living room almost the felt that way.
11:35 am
to get. success didn't come overnight for scottish prime spent years finding its musical direction coming off the five moderately well received albums to the long journey payoff in the neck 1980's simple mind state for album straight to the top of the charts in britain i'm not. telling. you. we're fortunate to have a story and it's a forty year story and. when you put out a new album it follows anyway it energizes the story it gives a new chapter. simple
11:36 am
minds have been following for something more than four decades now knows but they're not ready to rest on their morals and making new music yes so the morning i knew. a deal like this a full day in brussels of interview and i got up one earlier than normal because those a song. keen to finish i don't need to finish it just just know that the record companies know showed up for the new song what i'm an artist i create that's how i function. i. made temporary simple minds take that new album on a european told the times i'm looking forward to some magic moments. i. i. like i'm going to have to download some music all right now with all the religious strife we see on
11:37 am
a daily basis in the new or on the internet it's easy to forget that christianity judaism and islam are inevitably intertwined at least that is what one finnish photographer wants to point out all or call them anan has brought out this book combining photographs of churches mosques and synagogues now regardless of your religious beliefs it's hard to argue the beauty of these photographs. the pantheon in rome. the eye of sophia in istanbul. and the star temple synagogue in india. often you can't tell whether it's a mosque a church or synagogue till the second or third look. centuries old houses of worship are all a color mine and subjects before he presses the button the chemistry has to be just right. when i go in i need to have the kind of in light moment of the
11:38 am
space or in light meant of the light so there's something a driven force that are looking for. some places it's very easy to find somebody says it's a little bit more difficult sometimes it's easier to find but very hard to capture . this time color mining is turning his lens underlings cathedral he looks for just the right subject the optimal position and especially the perfect light and the challenge for him is to capture the particular mood and spatial dimensions on film . divide the image in several parts so kind of deconstruct the space and then reconstruct it but it's not perfect and that the certain point. when the viewer is looking the work. certain distance you sense the three dimensionality. mine in creates his artwork after the shoot.
11:39 am
in his berlin studio here ranges his photos like the tiles of a mosaic into larger panoramas. all of this is possible to do too but i like to do it on a lot of my work is not photography architecture. obstructing it. and the native of finland discovered his fascination for houses of worship in two thousand and thirteen in istanbul he spent months photographing must after that he spent more than three years visiting over fifty sacred sites all around europe the result was a book of photos and an exhibition titled sacred spaces in the house. it was in spaces themselves became part of the insulation. there were twenty seven works in the exhibition and there are twenty five colors. so it becomes.
11:40 am
a mine is a photographer of what's known as the helsinki school while studying in the finnish capital in the one nine hundred ninety s. seen again to specialize in images of spaces and facades. he made his name which abstract photos of architecture he came to it somewhat by accident. as a student at the university of art and design he found portrait photography too difficult . it was very difficult to work in the studio i did not the equipment and how to direct the people. there was so many things to do at the same time so when we went through this three life. assignment i started to build small spaces and then i could spend whatever time in studio and then. develop that i want to. they compiled his sacred spaces from twenty fourteen to twenty seventeen years during which tensions
11:41 am
between the world religions were growing in europe and elsewhere. did his photo project have a political message. i'm not doing political odd but i think all of it the theme and how it's handled bring something the. board what i'm thinking about it. all and call it mine and images reveal that when seen from a distance christian jewish and muslim houses of worship are visually at least not all that different. moving on now to other news making headlines on the cultural scene starting with an update on british prince william and kate snow a trip to scandinavia that and more coming up and express. britain's prince william and his wife kate arrived in snowy norway on thursday for a two day official visit the couple were welcomed in oslo airport by crown prince

exhibition at london's vienna a museum looks back at the golden age of ocean liners among the objects and display a relic of the titanic a good panel from the first class passenger area on a diet and rescued from the sinking this attaining of the exhibition examines the design of these giants of the seas and their impact on the culture of the twentieth century. it was the moment of true internationalization you know way globalization connection between cultures and these ships were more than just a means of conveyance but they were also transmitted ideas value artistic ideas ocean liners speedin styles showcases two hundred fifty objects and films it opens to the public on saturday and runs till mid june. clouds of smoke and tornadoes are often called in for many movies the more action the more explosions and clouds of smoke but how do you create such elements on
11:44 am
demand german a professor nails tour is an expert in the field of special effects with an oscar under his belt we talk to him about the science behind them. clouds of smoke trails eddies of tiny particles these are the ingredients for a very special special effects in films. here it's clouds of ink in water. in the latest star wars movie the last jet i.v. explosive clouds are mostly computer animated. this is where they were developed the technical university in munich news jury is a professor of games engineering here. he's worked as a lead developer of virtual special effects for various hollywood productions he even shared a technical achievement award at the oscars his research focuses on the simulation of smoke clouds sounds easy but in fact it's complicated because it is the same problem that airplane manufacturers car makers or weather forecasters have that the
11:45 am
underlying physics is very complicated and the complexity that arises from it is far too great to be able to simulate by her. model and by its. national encounter. much of the exhaust and puffs of smoke in the last jetta are special effects based on his research work in munich. they're already working on a new approach one reason it's so difficult to simulate moving gases and liquids is that the motion of the individual smoker in particles is influenced by many different factors. it gets particularly complicated when the particles hit an obstacle. so far there hasn't been a satisfactory way to model their behavior. now the researchers say they've made a breakthrough instead of calculating the path of each individual particle their program only requires
11:46 am
a rough design. the system then independently recognizes patterns of motion and completes the animation on its own it's an artificial intelligence technique known as deep learning. the result complex and realistic smoke simulations that even a low budget film studios could afford and the algorithms that the munich researchers develop are not limited to making ever more realistic cinema they have other applications in mind in medicine for instance. the dispute between blood in their veins and arteries could be modeled using the same equations that are behind the smoke clouds it would be very interesting to build up a library of precise simulations such as how our blood flow behaves for a particular blood vessel geometry and then i use these learning algorithms to predict how an x. ray image would relate to these flows. that's a very interesting direction for us and says i'm hanged first and he's got his
11:47 am
handles on delusional. so the simulations from munich could one day help save lives but for the time being we'll probably only encounter them on our movie screens. time now for something for all you do it yourself out there now if you're in need of a clock and if you don't have a euro max watch yet then why not make a clock yourself are residents of the i y. bird friends in kuwait us shows us how. hi i'm for it says the cat and concrete is all the rage lately so i'm going to show you how to make this relatively simple elegant clock with just a few materials you can do it yourself you will need a clock work with that theory some cement around plastic bowl like this old candy
11:48 am
dish. glue. paint for the hands of the clock. and very important and old pen cat knew the pan into the middle of the bowl will. now spread all around the whole thing. follow the instructions and makes the cement with water. immediately the bowl with the a cement mix. shake and rattle the bowl to get any albums out it said for twenty four hours. now use paint acrylic paint to paint the head of the cloth wants to paint has dried you just have to put the whole thing together you've got yourself a good looking creek luck. and please remember to not put any rest of the cement into the same covered toilet as it could lead to

11:50 am
bringing some good to their city as well. all swedes are embracing plugging a new fitness trend that's also good for the environment. eric cause was among the first to start picking up trash while jogging today he organizes events like this one in style called. u.c.b. from their trash all over but behind me it's green and i hope we can inspire people i mean this is only twenty five meters. is a combination of the swedish words for picking and jumping for jogging in recent months it's become popular among sporty and environmentally conscious sweets though it does take some getting used to. i think everyone has it it's a little bit to the beginning. that you overcome it you still do it. and then it
11:51 am
works for me straight and see i'm working on the recycling station so i'm used to regard rich and i also think it's very important to. make the nature more. it's fun it's a shame so many people just toss their garbage on the ground. and that makes them. some put their whole body and soul into it after all clocking is also designed to help people stay fit eric the organizer says the idea is really taking off. just doing. well again. and we hear about it every week knew about this. only plodders could get this excited about this much garbage they separate the trash and recycle what they can an hour later they filled their garbage bags once again and become top fifty in the
11:52 am
process. and finally a trend here in europe this winter is that women are wearing for doors much like the one from free bogart famously dawn in the classic film cars a blanket so if you're a new nick and looking for such a hat or other type of interesting head gear then hatmaker nikki mark wright is the woman for the job she's been making hats for some twenty years in all styles. sculptures to adorn heads made of fell and leather. clad fibers in feathers. nikki marquardt creates art works her ideas that it has to underscore his words personality but how much street cred do or creations really. you can. you shouldn't have any problem with us on the street it's not that hard the question is what do you well let's just say the street leads to ascot it's like
11:53 am
with anything else you wouldn't wear a swimsuit on the streets but more likely at the beach well it's own it off the us isn't in my opinion there's the right half for every occasion. would. want to set her shop in munich's museum quarter for twenty years the current fall and winter collection is still under splay including her folding hats. for master milner as one of design award for them and immediately had her collection patented the lesson. not only can you fold them flat you can shape them in all kinds of ways on your head so it's let me just put one on. top that is exactly the model i like to wear and i always wear it like this a bit asymmetrically doesn't me push my calmness but you can also wear it the classic way like a men's hat. it's a source of pride to have
11:54 am
a product category that's all my own and that's innovative as well it's a major motivating force for miss. i'm really not that interested in hats that have already been created. so mickey marquardt tender team of master milner's had to paris and its twice a year they create thirty to fifty models for every fashion show all made by hand they go on sale in luxury department stores all over the world and in her boutique . has always kept production in the house she says she can't outsource anything she's developed some of the production techniques herself in particular for her strong paper and banana leaf models. she gave up studying geography to pursue her chosen profession and she had to scrimp and save to buy her first handmade. what advice does she have for novice had where's it
11:55 am
yes this is my first attempt is just to keep trying different hats on to see what suits you for most people it's really a question of what they're used to can they've never seen themselves in a particular hot so as with anything else you just have to keep practicing. once or customers have made their choice nikki marquardt says it's all to last them a lifetime. and with that we come to the end of another show but don't forget to check us out on social media for fun videos and photos on the show as always and thanks for tuning in we will be right back here tomorrow same time same place so be sure to join us then for now though. the next edition of your a max designed. cemented by night and. it's potentially our walk our exclusive lighting fixtures on trucks that's not

a phone page. thirty minutes on the w. . to learn german with w. . anytime anyplace. with or with jo jo and her friends. colleagues is going to be doing a little mischief spritzes it's where she just goes on to work with all over the world. online and interactive. german to go. learn german for free with g.w. . bush. it's an underground war against crime. more and more young men are being gunned down in the slums of nairobi by the police

. there were more than three thousand such killings last year alone one of victims was nineteen year old brian friends and neighbors tell us what happened why it was brian killed extrajudicial killings in one rogue reporter on the job. my first boss was a sawing machine. where i come from women are balanced by this ocean told them in something as simple as learning how to write a bicycle isn't. since i was in the doing good i wanted to have a bicycle off my home and it took me mr mintz might. finally the game bob invention by me on my side has been three times because sewing machine sewing i suppose was more apt procreates for those than writing about it as no i wasn't me from bozeman back home full of bones by then two thousand and social norms and info. right.
