grimy surfaces. new and improved making the most of our discarded junk. and wine and dine a german invention or with a new take on the problems. most prefer the artist look for empty walls to paste or spray paint on but they don't worry too much about whether the space is clean or dirty however with clothes dougan the dirtier the wall the better and that's because he uses a high pressure cleaner to create his images now he calls his style reverse graffiti we met up with the artist at work in the south of france. painting with high pressure it's a way of life for german artist klaus dolphin. this time his canvas is a hole of a wall in the southern french city of sacha he plans to spray thirteen images of

reverse scruffy here. dirt is removed from the wall giving rise to an image. i think it's called the hours i love working outside with all the challenges involved i'm often asked an interesting question does it bother me that the work is transients that it has a limited life span. but something temporary like this can carry meaning and messages about life what that often is are about as. his tool is a high pressure cleaner which he uses to spray water on to the wall darvon has worked for years with technician excitement from the cash a company which makes the cleaners for this project the water from the high pressure water gun comes directly from the mediterranean. the senses a beauty is in the fact that water is the only way to achieve such a brilliant contrast when you clean off the organic material it gives rise to such

clear contours that lend the figures an astonishingly expressive quality was a stone. delvin used as wood stencils to create his reverse graffiti images. he's planned a series of thirteen portraits for the harbor wall portraits of people who once lived in set. of. books and policies without photos of set and i've picked out the most expressive faces i didn't want celebrities but rather people whose faces really express something about life and that that was the only criterion just men women and children across section of society with the. city's location thirty kilometers. sales of milk. it's one of the most important fishing ports on france's mediterranean coast.

the marble wall is one of its landmarks it's six hundred fifty meters long and nearly three meters high. lord of the office the harbor ward was the first building project to turn set into a city. of port was built three hundred fifty years ago. and that informed this artwork. on the first day dolphin completes three portraits. in his day job he works as an art teacher but it's reversed griffy she's a copy pisces free time. he's collaborated with cash since two thousand and seven the german company is the world's biggest manufacturer of cleaning equipment their first major joint project was on the owner's dam in western germany with the work covering eight thousand square metres it was followed by blossoming flowers in japan in two thousand and eight and in two thousand and twelve a gigantic tiger in south korea. reversed the reverse graffiti is the perfect time

form for me i've always had a weakness for large scale works now i can really bring that to life on dams there's no bigger canvas in art cashin has its own cultural sponsorship program along with more than three decades experience in cleaning monuments one of its most spectacular projects came in two thousand and five when it removed grime from the heads of the u.s. presidents on mount rushmore. it did the same for the statue of christ the redeemer in rio de janeiro and the helman monument in germany. has cleaned more than one hundred forty tourist attractions worldwide free of charge. you don't need it. water or high pressure hoses. then you have to bridge the distances with power lines water connections and so on. you can also use generators to avoid long power cables. after

three days darvon is finished and the said harbor warning is now probably the longest to open a gallery in the south of france. remains depends on three factors the slope of the wall the direction it's facing and the climate my experience would say that because it faces north has a good chance this work will survive for at least five years. to people is the title of tribute to thirteen city and have a chance although reversed griffey fades over time his r.t. is likely to live on in the communities memory for years to come. the wedding of the year between prince harry and meghan markle is just over one month away but for those who can waited there is now a comic book recounting their love story that plus denmark celebrates

continuing now with our series on various musical instruments and today we take a look at the synthesizer a relative newcomer to the music family now first use in pop music in the one nine hundred sixty s. this is a sizer really took off in the eighty's when the company yamaha made it widely available bands like pink floyd the journey or depeche mode would sound very different without them while we talked to a founding member of the german electronic band cough air about how the synthesizer has influenced their music. as it generates a range of sounds and. one of the world's most famous play is. one of the founding members of german electronic music band cuff where.

i was never a good violinist and i was an average recorder plow. want to get the feel for it the synthesizer is a really versatile and flexible instrument. victory here was the last social since then. since the band played in the one nine hundred seventy s. were expensive and bulky. in the one nine hundred eighty s. bands like depeche mode helped to bring the synth into the mainstream it became the pop instrument of choice. developments in digital technology helped to make them more affordable to. the advent of music making software in the one nine hundred ninety s. enabled us to produce electronic dance music from home. as well as on sex lives on the phone when we started in one thousand nine hundred six what we were doing seemed pretty radical people thought come on you can't seriously

be using a computer to come up with a serious composition but we proved it was possible that. native instruments has its head office in the crowds back district of berlin. with branches in l.a. tokyo london and paris it's become the global leader in what's called soft synth. the programming is done in germany. algorithms are used to generate different sounds. and cement cling to look muscular was pushed in the code determines the sound of the instruments are put on court and we've got a big team of people working on refining the ins. amounts of. code and fine tuning the sound clung not white it's a final. developers working for native instruments made waves in the year two

thousand when they replicated the sound of the hammond organ. in twenty thirteen monarch software hit the market. this in three previous the analog sounds of a street excesses. that it's not all about copying other sounds the berlin based developers have also produced their own synths one of them is called massive. passive sounds. very aggressive. you can produce a lot of distortion. want it suits all kinds of genres. some musicians like undetermined of german electro dance mass on mass exclusively with softsynth other prominent clients who visited native instruments include madonna u

two and cold play but many less than their musicians pass through is well. it's great for people who can't afford to buy all their stuff you can work with the equipment without having to spend thousands of euros or so. many musicians using a software synthesizer find it hard to get used to not having a keyboard. some native instruments tries to replicate the feel of a piano or an organ. in berlin the company's developing input devices for software control which resemble normal people it's. now before we still have ten fingers and two hands so long as we can use them i think we'll continue to play actual instruments. that might change in fifty or one hundred years but until then we'll make do with buttons in case the. lot isn't. people are fed up with messing around with virtual things they want to

actually touch and feel stuff. it's the same with cooking shows you can watch people cooking but you can't smell the food you can't taste it similar. that's why there's still demand for old school synthesizes software based instruments have a place in modern music production but connoisseurs know that nothing beats analog . and now is a good time to let you in on this week's contest we would like to know if you play an instrument and if so let us know when you can qualify to win a euro max watch please go to our website for all of the details now you might want to think twice the next time you throw something away because perhaps there is another use for the item upcycling has been a popular trend for a couple of years now and you would be surprised at what some designers are able to

a wine bar. i think it's fascinating that and start of throwing things away you can take them apart work out how they were made and fix them to make something new out of them whereas my. house just studying drama force well has she went on to forge a career as a director and filmmaker but then he discovered upcycling. in of second did this cycling includes the concept of up making something better out of various elements. if you find two bad chairs and turn them into something useful . it gives him a sense of empowerment the feeling he can make a difference. but now you can sit on it and move around. the it's easy to throw stuff away let's say to make unique pieces from other people's trash these piano pet also being repurposed. now sound of them.

many of the paddles have holes in them. then you can take another component from the piano. remove about half the pegs. done and then. make it into a rack for kitchen utensils. plus one has already turned other parts of the piano source today jesse into new items for clients he's been commissioned to refurbish an entire room. for a couple who are teachers he designed a loft bed as well as shelves of bookcase and stairs custom built around a wardrobe they inherited. at the most because in the wardrobe will have to go more to the right or left to create a better sense of space. and if you follow him every piece of wood has a rich history including the piano lid from

a dresser. to one or two hundred years old. and here's a door made from an old table. the idea is to take old materials used elsewhere and turn them into something different. the up cycle has to hurry home to look after his daughter mila but everywhere he goes he keeps an eye open for junkie to muse he says more than half the things germans toss in the trash are still in working order. this discarded cupboard door high. potential. in human brains someone who needs shelves. that ripped maybe a desk will see. whole swab and get back to work in the afternoon he still has to vanish the dining table so the x. floor boards become a smooth surface that's easy to wipe clean hardly any of his own furniture is store bought. i made this sound her brother's bed as well.

also custom built to bunk everything is designed to be space saving and functional he worked on this piece for weeks. it has to last stand if possible be attractive and made of old materials and i try to maintain a sense of its previous purpose this monday the american from juneau can't. because he wouldn't even think of throwing anything away he can make something new out of anything that's old all he needs is the right idea. and a lot of energy that looks like a lot of work but very creative nonetheless all right now you know you have made it when you have a statue unveiled in your honor for our ongoing high five series we take a look at some famous people who have been bestowed such an honor but when you see the following statues you'll see that it's not such an honor after all here are.
