surprised but do they also have a future. i really understand people who say they don't want to stay here. but i also admire people who want to stay here and who decided to create something good to peace time what needs to happen if tolerance and reconciliation are to stand a chance darkness cities after war starting march tenth on t w . are one welcome 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 up. alive and kicking scottish band simple minds are back
2:31 pm
with a new album. sacred spaces of affairs for a charger 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
2:32 pm
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 teaching lead singer gymkhanas forces barely changed since they started. magic the first single from their new album between waltz jim carroll seems about the bounce beginnings of a 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 with suddenly didn't know anyone that had. a record deal in glasgow then the
2:33 pm
chance of being a rock star your. posts that us as being an astronaut. but we believed that there was something there this magic listening. new album comes on the heels of an acoustic project in which the musicians rediscovered themselves and their music sound more emotional and powerful to our members follow that instinct. listening sometimes you have a and i do you think is good but not the timing but it just felt in the right place . we were gone once we committed to stop the. the you go to war cure all of just sleeves and you go in and you just you work in about twenty eight
2:34 pm
deals and you get it down to about eight swear you think really good ones. and we. think of. looking at. one of simple minds biggest hits was one thousand nine hundred finds don't you forget about me one of the few songs they hadn't written themselves it is number one in the u.s. and canada left its mark on a generation of music fans. 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.
2:35 pm
to get. success didn't come overnight the scottish transplant is finding its musical direction coming off the find moderately well received albums to their long journey payoffs in the late one nine hundred eighty s. simple minds still full albums straight to the top of the charts in britain. we're fortunate to have a story and it's a forty year story and. when you put out a new album it it follows anyway it energizes the story it gives a new chapter. simple
2:36 pm
minds are been following for something more than four decades now but they're not ready to rational no morals that making new music just 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 it from a new song but i'm an artist i create that so i function. i need paper a simple minds take a new album on a european soul the fans are looking forward to some magic moments. i. i. look like i'm going to have to download some music all right now with all of the religious strife we see on
2:37 pm
a daily basis in the nudes 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 ioseph in istanbul. and the star temple synagogue in india. often you can't tell whether it's a mosque a church or a 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
2:38 pm
a very high number in light moment of the space or in light meant of the light so there's something a driven force that i'm looking for. some places it's very easy to find some bruises it's a little bit more difficult sometimes it's easy to find but very hard to capture. this time call a mine in is turning his lens on berlin's cathedral he looks for just the right subject the optimal position and especially the perfect light. the challenge for him is to capture the particular mood and spatial dimensions fun film. by the right 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 to work certain distance you sense the three dimensionality. mine in creates his artwork after the shoot. in his berlin studio here ranges his photos like the tiles of
2:39 pm
a mosaic into larger panoramas. all of this is possible to do too but i like to do it on a lot of the tricks used to my work it's not photography architecture i mean it's obstructing it. and the native of finland discovered his fascination for houses of worship in two thousand and thirteen in istanbul he spent much. it's 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 next edition titled sacred spaces in the healthy art museum it was in spaces themselves became part of the installation. there were twenty seven works in the exhibition and there are twenty five colors. so it becomes. work. it's all a calling my name is
2:40 pm
a photographer of what's known as the helsinki school while studying in the finnish capital in the one nine hundred ninety s. he began to specialize in images of spaces and facades. he made his name which have strict 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 and there was so many things to do at the same time so when we went to this theater live assignment i started to build small spaces and then i could spend whatever time in the studio and then. develop that i want to photograph real spaces. he compiled his sacred spaces from twenty fourteen to twenty seventeen years during which tensions
2:41 pm
between the world religions were growing in europe and elsewhere. did his photo project have a political message. i'm not doing political art but i think all of the team and how it's handled bring something the. board what i'm thinking about it. all and color 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. going 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 . since when young and his wife can tear i didn't snow in no way on thursday for today official visit the couple will welcome to an airport by crown prince haakon
2:42 pm
and crown princess met to moderate later today match norway's king holiday and queen song yeah at the royal palace william and kate and therefore de scandinavian to all on friday earlier in the week they spent two days in sweden. wednesday saw the start of the transmedia in berlin the digital culture festival aims to open up new perspectives on the connections between art culture and technology this year it focuses on how digital developments are changing social values in practice. we would like to encourage visitors to critically question the media reality we live in today we have created in. the first transmitted yellow was held thirty years ago the annual festival last five days. the new exhibition at london's vienna
2:43 pm
a museum looks back at the golden age of ocean liners among the objects on display a relic of the titanic i would panel from the first class passenger area on a diet i am rescued from the sinking this attaining 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 in a way globalization connection between cultures and these ships were more than just a means of conveyance but they also transmitted idealise the value artistic ideas ocean liners speedin style showcases two hundred fifty objects and films it opens to the public on saturday and runs till mid june. clough. smoke and tornadoes are often called in for many movies the more action the more explosions and causes low but how do you create such elements on demand german
2:44 pm
a professor nails turner is an expert in the field of special effects with an oscar under his belt we talk to him about the science behind the. clouds of smoke trails eddies of tiny particles these are the ingredients for very special special effects in films. here it's clouds of ink in water. in the latest star wars movie the last jet idea explosive clouds are mostly computer animated. this is where they were developed the technical university in munich news to ray 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
2:45 pm
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 jet 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
2:46 pm
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. that the. 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 i would give that's a very interesting direction for us and just think that is endless hundred. so the
2:47 pm
simulations from munich could one day help save lives but for the time being we'll probably only encounter them on our movie screen. 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. x. bird friends in kuwait the 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 yet elegant with just a few materials you can do it yourself you really need a cloth with a battery some cement around plenty of both like this old candy dish. glue.
2:48 pm
paint for the hands of the clock. and very important pen caffe new 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. and leave you to fill the bowl with the a cement mix. shake and rattle the bowl to get any albums out bedded set for twenty four hours. now you spray paint acrylic paint to paint the head of the cloth once 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 sink other toilet as it could lead to stop

2:50 pm
bringing some good to their city as well. swedes are embracing the plugging a new fitness trend that's also good for the environment. eric close was among the first to start picking up trash while jogging today he organizes events like this one in stockholm. you see. there are trash all over votes behind me it's green and a whole lot of people i mean this is only twenty five meters. learning 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 but the point is that you overcome it you still do it
2:51 pm
. then it works for me straight in see i'm working on the. sun 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 it's. some put their whole body and soul into it after all plotting is also designed to help people stay fit eric the organizer says the idea is really taking off. people. just doing. it. 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 and an hour later they fill their garbage bags once again and become top fifty in
2:52 pm
the process. and finally a trend here in europe this winter is that women are wearing for dora's much like the one from free bogart famously dawn in the classic film cars a blank row so if you're in munich 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 leather. clad fibers and feathers. nikki marquardt creates art works her idea is that it has to underscore here where there's a personality but how much street cred do or creations really. you can. you shouldn't have any problem when it's 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
2:53 pm
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 hat for every occasion. nicky micron has had her shop in munich's museum quarter for twenty years the current fall and winter collection is still on display including her fooling that's. a master mill there is one or design award for them and immediately that her collection patented the lessons i need 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. but you can also wear it the classic way like a men's hat. it's a source of pride to have
2:54 pm
a product category that's all my own and that's innovative as well that's a major motivating force for me. i'm really not that interested in hats that have already been created. and. so mickey marquard tender team of master milner's had to paris and it's twice a year they create thirty to fifty models for every fashion show made by hand they go on sale in luxury department stores all over the world and in her boutique. nikki marc rod 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 out what advice does she have for novice had where's it yes this is
2:55 pm
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 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 her hats off 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 the. next edition of your i'm max designer. cemented by night and. it's potentially. our exclusive lighting fixtures on trucks that's not
