on top of that i've been going to. them with that color innovations magazine for. the every week and looking to the future. dot com science and research. i want to welcome to another edition of euro max from flower displays fit for a king to luxury chocolate treats we have lots of fun topics on the show today here's a look at what's coming up. singing songs music maker. and prison usual instruments. aren't sissoko arrangements done your boss is the top floral

designer from the belgium. and frequent flyer german artist. bismarck is in the man around the world. but first we start off the show with this week's series on musical instruments and singing songs have been a part of that family for about one hundred years now the most famous player of the singing saw was arguably actress marlina d.t.h. who played it at how they would parties will the musician and locksmith ralph produces his musical saws in a workshop in germany and he delivers them to customers all over the world well we paid him a visit in the studio. this isn't your everyday kind of sound a musical song accompanied by a harp people mostly think of songs or something used to cut wood. but for real

stuff isn't there his favorite musical instrument he spends his days performing teaching and making singing saw. him out of this i was always on the lookout for across something i could make i worked as a guitar technician i was used to tuning instruments but i never built any myself and back to me is what it's all about to explore it and to stay on the ball. musical saw its first coach to science attention when he saw the cult movie delicatessen many years ago. the scene featuring two characters playing a saw and a cello on a roof is one of the movies most well known sequences. but if involved. when i saw the film i thought wow that's an incredible sound. i want to try that myself. but it's haunting and special. you know i've never heard

anything like it you know look i'm for it like bansal for the instrument get hurt first he started playing sauce but then he also started making them nowadays he produces about one hundred singing songs per year each one is unique accomplished on the public a lot of the sound results from the s. curve of the blade so if i bend the saw in just one direction you'll hear only a screech at best. but when i bend the blade and twist it into two directions at either end to get an s. cut it starts to vibrate the planet but. the sound also depends on the length and take this of the lane. and the surface might have been sanded differently. a closer look reveals that a typical feature of a saw is missing. a proper sort of course has teeth got that way you can saw the news the other side to make music but regular tunes

tend to be too thick. this material is very flexible. there is going to be you couldn't use a real cross cut so for this you know initially i made my singing stalls with teeth but that made them awkward to handle and teeth on exactly ideal if the musician is weighing trousers or address. it in the living saw. singing songs also have to handle its customers can choose from a variety of different woods stood aside usually answer group to the tip of the play that makes it easier to play. the instruments he day came in the one nine hundred twenty s. german film star malina dietrich often performed with the song and brought it into the spotlight in hollywood. but since then it's fallen into obscurity.

and i think it is the sound of a musical so it's a whole special with the normal ear couldn't stand to listen to it for ninety minutes at a stretch usually it's only played for two minutes or so maybe five or a maximum of ten minutes after that you have to have something else the sound is very piercing and really irritates some people. but it also has its fans. a sing song world championship took place in poland in two thousand and eleven. took fourth place. but performers of the musical sall remain few and far between and ralphs davis not likes it that way he's happy with the nice instrument and his passion for singing songs. time now for a brief look at other stories me headlines on the culture scene and

have you ever wondered how certain people land certain jobs well daniel aust a well known florist. from brussels got his start out in the fields getting his hands dirty well now decades later is a supplier of flower arrangements to the belgian royal family but they aren't his only customers he's in demand worldwide and is now considered one of the best florists in the world. mystic flower arrangements on display in japan the us over at an indian wedding in italy. arrangements the world over. the belgian turns everything green amazing displays.

in his home country is known as the picasso a flower arranging but compliments like that just make the modest florist smile. many people say he's an artist. of the flowers. but on my name. very blue the title is not important. opened his first florist shop in one thousand nine hundred. four years later he moved there with his family in two thousand and three he opened another store in the belgian capital brussels today he's a well known figure in the country. discovered his love of flowers and. my grandfather was a farmer and i was already flowers and at that time the pits. were still

open and i fell into that pit and i lost conscience. almost lost my life and my grandfather just i think. any of. the flowers. flowers were to become his overriding passion. among. the belgian royal family. and top fashion labels. this is for the fashion designer. this is his favorite flower and. it became iconic of all because it has been maybe copied fifty times. and beauty brands also embellished their images with signature look. the back up of the

. cosmetic shop in in getting into. and this is there is it's called korean smile but. it's done one by one and there is. that project took two days and nights his wife marianne has played a key role in his career. with my wife i would be nothing i wouldn't be famous and nobody would ever exist in the she was my she was stabilizing me she was keeping with my two feet on the ground. that's all. the two married forty years ago there were a few speed bumps my father and mother didn't want us to get married and her father and mother. to get married and the priest was talking about somebody else because

he made a mistake in the speech he was talking about another couple and it was very funny but he said. he made a terrible mistake. don't forget he will always be first with this flower then you will be second. yeah that's true. he asked sort of passed on their passion for plants to their daughter and she runs the business in brussels. doing the impossible and doing it perfectly that's what drives generations twenty seventeen the last time the royal wedding of the emirates of man into a scene out of a fairy tale to do it she had to fly in over thirty thousand flowers from the netherlands by hand and arrange them while ensuring they got enough water one hundred people worked on it for two weeks. has followed in her father's footsteps

after years of hesitation on his part she finally convinced him to work his court florist for the belgian royal family i think it's it's life and it's something you have to deserve every time again because it's not something that is guaranteed for years to come so again there's a pressure. both daughter apparently fried on not pressure donal's just return from new york city's botanical garden into a sea of. the orchid show will be on display until the end of april. the sixty two year old has already moved on to other challenges working with flowers is one of the most family of art forms. and this is why i love. that's that's important i like to like what i do i'm always forced. to make new things and that is why i like about that

and belgium's most famous florist plans to keep on creating masterpieces for years to come. but the artist in our next report tries to strike a balance between outdoor adventure and large scale installation uli is fun bismarck is a master of experiments connecting art with science and challenging our perception of things all these installations video projects and performances have earned him the evolve or art prize worth a total of eighty thousand euros well we caught up with him here in berlin to hear about this latest projects. the pressure inside this believe has to be just right for this special artwork to function properly it's connected to you loose one bismarck so-called top shot helen visitors a gallery and even a dumpster helmet to ben's bismarck's art is all about playing with how we perceive

things. this was the first where i said ok this is finished i want to get it to a stage where i can put it on display during. his market work in his but in studio . his conceptual art involves a fresh air of workmanship there's plenty of sanding and welding involved some parts need to be riveted glued. it's probably hard to understand as an outsider just how elaborate these things sometimes are experts with lots of know how i needed to develop them what we're doing here is a kind of research a different kind of research into totally different things. like what it's like to live inside a spinning bowl that rotates fifteen times a minute for four days. the artist had no idea what to expect.

from after the three men to do these experiments because i don't know what will happen a week before the exhibition i briefly stepped inside the ball and instantly felt queasy and i thought oh my god this won't work but after a while i learn to cope and i overcame that initial motion sickness. doozie because at the moment for what. to turn to for spinning artwork egocentric system. in it you'd better find something to keep yourself occupied if you don't want to feel miserable. bismarck's office is right beside his studio as high demand for his works and he's often busy planning trips abroad to showcase them his ass takes him around the world. in his punishing series the artist of which a series of landscapes from the waves off topic up on

a beach to the swiss alps. he was end up wondering just what it is he hates so much about nature and that's exactly the kind of response bismarck wants to elicit but he refuses to explain his what's. in twenty fifteen because it doesn't assistance to spray paint a section of mexican rainforest in white paint but that is just the first step. you guys who can deal with the basic white lie i guarantee that everything got painted afterwards so what you see of the colors that were picked by the person who repainted it. bismarck's assistance then went on to paint the rain forest a second time and different shades of green using environmentally friendly paint of course. it was important to me not to have a negative environmental impact so we use colors the doctor. sick with i had to

drink the color in front of the eyes of the locals to prove it wasn't toxic and wouldn't damage the environment. landscape painting in the jungle on a scale of one to one. indigenous people are used to crazy white people coming to them with all kinds of projects or when they're building a road through their forest or extracting oil. building a hotel or setting up a plantation. so the people there viewed painting the rain forest as one of the nicer requests. some part of me to become. bismarck is also fascinated by rocks with blowing them up to be precise. then he likes to piece them back together again just another of his quirky works in some ways not all that different from top shot helen. who has

a small head it's a fourth provoking experience. place this man says he has tripled vision. welding onto another type of experiment a do it yourself project and this week our resident a d.i.y. expert franz in kuwait us shows us how to make use of some of our old photo negatives that may still be lying around the house we learn now how to turn them into a positive source of light. i know i'm for infants and i'm sure that those of you with took photos have lots of negatives lying around to dad to show you how you can make this really of. you on the table. with this movie and then they leave it doesn't get too hot to. the negatives. and.
