domestic violence cyber. trafficking for investigators cases that you want to. trade sanctions at the base idea if so every young person needs to listen to crime and shantell a frame tell a friend to think. like yours. i ever want to welcome to another special edition of your romex featuring your viewers most popular topics today we are focusing on art in various forms which is your third favorite subject here's what's coming up. artificial intelligence we take a look at creative. artistic expression
11:31 pm
why polish an artist all the covers everything in crochet work. to create a statement an austrian artist builds muscle powered sports car. once upon a time as an artist perhaps you were inspired by a feeling then poured your own emotional state to enter your work you chose a medium and maybe some oil paints and after a while you had a work of art ok maybe i am oversimplifying the process but today you can sidestep all of that creative import and have a robot do the painting or drawing for you now this is what patrick say france has experimented with forcing us to question who the artist really is. these kinds and drawings are not the work of a human at least not directly part of
11:32 pm
a robot. one of the best known humans in the realm of robot art is partly cloudy today. he has three robots working for him in his london studio and they are called. here they're getting ready for a drawing session. it's complicated machines that writes a program. made kerry you know. kind of self off traits as it's complex relationship. between you about that but also for me up there to do what they wanted to do what they do is a room with their camera eyes and recognize human faces and then they draw what
11:33 pm
they see including shadows they can take up to forty minutes. i say has a master's in computer science he made and programmed his robots himself even though sabina to power has posed more than twenty times for. she says it still feels weird the machine is basically imitating human behavior so you kind of like familiar with the movements but at the same time not really because you are aware that is not a pair of eyes that's a camera so you know but then the scenes on the movies are so naturally done that you're a slightly confused at times many who see the robots at work feel the same way at least once a month they perform in public and this event was in paris last year. as. an artist and as a scientist time say is interested in the interaction of human and machine people tend to ascribe human attributes to the robots. as soon as seeing.
11:34 pm
it behaviors that make sense to look at something and react you have to understand then you react to. the aegis we can't hope it to say is a visiting research fellow at goldsmiths college university of london he has always been fascinated by both arts and technology. he's adjutants maybe very our dad and abel and he may have delegated plenty of work to them he says he is still the artist. things are going to take over because. the. community of technology he will not have to try to get. them to make just doesn't work because this knowledge of. it is
11:35 pm
very unlikely that robots will soon be doing their own thing as in creating their own art still what they are already doing today is fascinating and just to be time cammie. continuing now on this subject we move on to art installations now they come in many different forms including believe it or not crocheted now one performance artist who calls herself all that put her radical mark on this activity which of course we associate more with our grandmothers than with rebellious street artists but somehow all like seems to be making it work. i gotto alexy excruciating art installations may look harmless enough books can be deceiving.
11:36 pm
to. to i'm all that i'm an artist and sometimes i like to call myself an old fashioned lady who prefers falling out of the soil. for more than a decade now the polish born artist has traveled the world covering anything and everything she can little layer of colorful yard. i believe as art is there is most a brace in between life and art or a feeling that enters my life got me crocheted it i heard text messages from my ex lovers so natural way for me to express myself physically if you will know me. eventually you can be part of my work. one i put my first piece on the street i realized how the piece changes in order to
11:37 pm
enter violent and also how people are not to sing the song. people are afraid to for some results to go inside a gallery or museum they don't feel saved or maybe they'll feel they're free but enter the spaces and the moment is on the street it's really for everybody you know there's a minute if you're educated it doesn't matter if you have any knowledge about the art it is for you to experience it. got to the stage to the most spectacular intervention today on christmas eve of twenty ten she'd learned the famous charging . street had been installed there without permission in one thousand nine hundred nine so decided to honor the semi legal installation of her. actually. a much more the god to make than the league this is to be run as
11:38 pm
a because then you're aggressive as they are killing buying to. strangers levels i mean further strengthen their bodies but this transcends really for artist mabel to finish that and to me to be able to play with their peers because of time but also the kill the contract takes time so i could put her on this basis before going with me and pray that are going to eat. like lucky to run away when you go. likely. in many places on lex interventions constitute property damage and are punishable with fines or even jail but she doesn't let back to turn her public travels the world to expose social
11:39 pm
problems and then just by covering things up when necessary with official permission. in twenty four team plunged into the gulf of mexico to protest against the destruction of the ecosystem. in march twenty sixth she joined women in india for a protest performance to celebrate international women's day. later that year she travelled to finland to create our pink helps with refugees from ukraine and syria the projects message was everybody should have a home. my place is there not just to decorate the city i hope they bring awareness of certain issues that are very important verse also i talk about free door and what human rights women rights you know like about environmental crisis right now so all those pieces has some meaning behind.
11:40 pm
a lot reading community and being with together teaching them skills. employing them and then we create something together and they will leave something for the community to enjoy. which no lack of seems to inspire new works it's clear for all that they actually go right on crocheting. well if. my hands are stopping for sure but in the end not really because most of the work is producing my hair always translate my work to somebody who actually can produce it you know so. nothing can stop me. now to a british artist who gives new meaning to the phrase you won't believe your eyes howard levy is something of an illusionist now he paints realistic images of
11:41 pm
everyday common objects and combines them with the real thing to trick the viewer chosen flat form is the internet where he's gathered quite a following so time now to see if you can figure out which objects are not the real deal. which of these objects is real and which is a drawing. these internet videos are about everyday objects but not all of them are as real as they look. drawings that are fooling our senses and then a few seconds of time lapse video solve the riddle of the optical illusions. the works of british artist howard lee are showing us the limitations of our perception . of what makes a video great is the moment at which it becomes something you didn't expect it to
11:42 pm
be so whether it's that you were looking at a drawing and you didn't realize it was a drawing or whether you were looking at a drawing that then started moving and becomes an animation and mixes with reality it's the single point at which something unexpected happens fat's the sort of magic moment and that's for me what really makes it the drawing is only the beginning of lee's work he films the hours long creative process of drawing the actual artwork is the finished video. the thirty three year old prefers to exhibit his works on the internet. it's not elitist in any way it doesn't require somebody to endorse it or to put money behind it it doesn't matter how old you are or how experienced you are how qualified you are anybody can draw video painting an artwork or video creation or anything online and it's judged purely on its own
11:43 pm
merits lee has a growing community of fans on social networks the artist now earns a living selling prints and working for advertising clients. is also seeking out new challenges in addition to still lifes he's trying his hand at the animation. and using live action footage. but you can only achieve this sort of hyper realistic look under the right conditions. you've got the lighting which needs to be not so far into the picture that it's going to make the colors too too faint to grade out. you've got the media so you need the intensity of what you're using to match the color intensity on the screen you need different media so you know you need things like
11:44 pm
a kind of white gel pain which are going to. they're going to give you the highlight that you need. that's going to be the same as the intensity of the reflection of the objects. lives and works in the northern english city of newcastle he started making internet videos in two thousand and fifteen before that he taught art. he had started on to university but most of the techniques he uses today he didn't learn them. has been learned through other people demonstrating it in their videos on instagram or on you tube into toils if i need to learn something the first place i goes you tube to try and find somebody to teach me how to do it normally i can. link chooses his subjects from everyday life he's constantly experimenting with different colors and materials to create the perfect illusion.
11:45 pm
often a few seconds of video take place to make. and in the future the production process could even get more complex. i'd like to make more videos which maybe have more of a sense of story maybe bring some of the followers into the videos and so i can combine drawing and reality on the same plane. of one hundred thousand ideas that i'd like to try out so yeah it's just finding the time to do the mini. is it real or an illusion. succeeds however briefly in making our school reality into question. from its beginnings the automobile has been a symbol of status and wealth and freedom and one of the brands that embodies these concepts perhaps best is
11:46 pm
a poor step but as you know this luxury sports car can be quite expensive plus it's a pollutant into the environment however there is an alternative on the road in austria that will make you look twice. i have harsh nine one one for many a dream on wheels the embodiment of power and speed but when the traffic light changes in minutes austria even cyclists overtake this porsche. that's because this one hundred fifty kilos sports car is really a bicycle how does the austrian who built it powers it using his legs. of course it's pleasant when you can be very slow it's a special luxury. i think that's
11:47 pm
a bigger luxury than if you always have to be very fast. everyone wants to be fast and everyone is always fast but to be slow that's the real luxury. underneath its golden surface the materials used to build the car are quite mundane the artist created his mobile sculpture from plastic tubing and duct tape. that's how the porsche named found g t three r.s. came to be an artwork that questions the cult of cars while making a social and ecological statement. europe's museums already how is harness car art for example the lentils art museum for contemporary and modern art. how does one eat as fabien and has taken

everywhere agree on like normal cars his mobile work of art is also allowed him to destry in zones. using. thomas monita has created an entirely new form of mobility he even occasionally uses fatty nine hundred self in daily life. to. your food you feel a lot better than a normal porsche because you don't produce as much toxic emissions. and i haven't calculated precisely how much c o two a human body emits but it's certainly less than an internal combustion engine. a human being is an engine to an engine with a lifetime guarantee. but the shelf where you said you hold. the car designer ferry porsche said the last car ever to be built will be

a sports car he could be right because the fat in and g t three r.s. will still be rolling along with other cars have long run out of gas. beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that certainly seems to be the case before romanian photographer. now she travels the world documenting different women to illustrate the various definitions of beauty her project called the atlas of beauty has taken her to over fifty countries we caught up with her in italy. the world streets and squares hello knox's workplace since two thousand and thirteen she's traveled to over fifty different countries photographing women.

11:53 pm
important for me. i'm really trying to do this so does this saying that we have one of our most memorable journeys was to north korea in september two thousand and fifteen she wanted to thank photographs of women in everyday situations in an isolated country because apart from its politics little is known about north korea managed to photograph more than twenty women more than she'd expected. i had traveled to north korea and there i was always accompanied by a guide so my experience. was still thirds let's say but what i've found amazing was that. i was able to do to talk with the women and stop them almost see the photo of them for my project which i thought is very interesting you. said lot else out today michelle in
