for larger sections he works with a graphics program it's fairly straightforward one pixel on the screen stands for one lego brick. this year the song contest organizers even provided him with a plan of the venue in lisbon along with other images alexandra de gette felt configures the lego version himself and there's one particularly tricky challenge to master. oh it's these both that i'm doing right now they're going to go back stage and around in the air and then they're in no position. what are called angle with well and that's really hard because they're really big they're even bigger than the actual stage here so that's the big challenge i mean challenge. it's a labor of love and one that takes up a considerable amount of leisure time he's been working on the new model since september it will ultimately incorporate one hundred fifty thousand bricks he has

hungry for sports we've been presenting you some weird and wonderful athletic activities today's discipline is probably the most extreme of extreme sports a so-called wingsuit allows adrenaline junkies to seoul pasta mountain peaks it's pretty much the closest man can come to flying like a boat we caught up with some dead devils in switzerland who showed us how it's done. but we have. images that take your breath away high up in the swiss alps on punch one of the last go north of the congo winds of pilots meet regularly to plunge off cliffs in their path like suits in everyday life they may be bankers nurses oh i see specialists but in their free so i'm they want an adrenaline rush not here with about ten or fifteen other friends from all over the world and it's really cool cause we never really get an opportunity like this all jump together it's really cool be able to

share this experience the everyone. claims to have fabric under the arms and between the legs when the part of fools this extra patrick acts as wings we can see planets race through the air and up to two hundred fifty kilometers an hour and extreme experience that many find addictive. my. feeling is is happiness for me at least after i've done a nice jump i'm really really happy and fulfilled and that's the main reason why i do things you can't even put words to how good it feels to try to explain this to my friends and i say it feels like you're falling in love every time you make it. and brennan is well known in the ways it seems she's won many competitions the others here on think it is either lying in a wing suit because instruction and training a false move can result in a deadly accident. one hundred forty two wings two pilots have been killed since

this extreme sports became popular at the beginning of the century. but many fans say the risk is possibly kick. obviously we all know that there are risks booked the reward is so much higher that we're willing to take the risks we take these risks because. you know it's an incredible feeling when you when you can control your body and your wing suit and fly where you want. when you see base jumping for many it's the ultimate sports but actually it's even the highest flying past a comeback to. many musicians tool all around the world and standing audiences with their concerts but hey about to call does something slightly different he's

a professor of music at the university of minnesota here in germany and delivers piano lessons all over the globe but from the comfort of his own home it's his aim to support talented musicians who don't have the means or access to quality teachers he helps them out for free via video call. not many sixteen year olds play the piano this well. actually comes from india even plays by heart. as i memorize everything each of the concerts i play i memorize i find it more comfortable for me if i memorize and perform without discourse i feel like i can come indicate more and more five or six towards the audience. in february twenty eighth million performed

a concert at the colegio music. western germany all through now he's back home in southern india over seven thousand kilometers away from his piano teacher had a bad call. the two have been working together for six years now mostly on line. or did you know really. did you like it. was. just for being with us all sometimes the connection is so bad that you can only hear clearly in certain musical situations what sort of club often comes as soon as you stop playing quickly and loudly the sound is so distorted that you can't hear the fine the nuances kind of the written notes where even the right ones but all. european classical music is not widely known in india. and was nine when he first heard it and was immediately

captivated. the first he taught himself how to play then when he was ten he set out to find a teacher and discovered everybody called the internet. so . yes. yes. yes. over an area but of course house another piano student is hard at work but you want to muddy cheap comforters covered or that an international piano competition in her native course i. know she's studying under him at the university of minnesota. phenomenon he's the nominee.

what but who can and who wants to achieve something slice and buy what inspires me makes me happy she's beautiful and was worth the effort. and there's a feature is regularly on the juries of international music competitions and about coffee is sure to discover many more talented students in the future to. now it's time to tickle the taste buds with another installment of our series fifty kitchens one city where we present you our favorite restaurants in the german capital bolen's color is seen boasts a wide variety and today we're getting a taste of slovakia around one thousand four hundred slovaks live here and two of them opened a restaurant in twenty fourteen among the national delicacies they serve up is britain's ski so let's find out how that's made.

very few know i cried when i think of the first thing i think about is meeting old friends drinking some nice wine somewhere outside under trees from fine. points of playing and if i'm really lucky even with a view of the danube sign off of. the club restaurant in berlin it's also supposed to be a place you'd like to come back to located in the basement of an apartment house it's just a room with a large table and a clear concept not a typical restaurant but a meeting place. by the evenings a week from among not and still be a printer over welcome that guest here they want to bring people sometime strangers together at one table with good food and wine. every week they offer different menu.

plots. that stuff is actually a space where time is of importance. i guess that is our real concept side for in a time where much of life is two dimensional via mobile phones and screens and everything has to go very fast. as we try to create a tranquil environment. but. celebrate the whole thing slow it down. the law says that people not only come here to consume but to reconnect with themselves. the two cooks prepare slow food at the source during reagan's from small producers they know personally. they find it important to know exactly where the parties comes from. they buy much of it directly in slovakia or in the area surrounding berlin. and all the wines offered

here are made without additives all the use of elaborate technology. sometimes a good local easy for to play the one with. what complicity just in. this war i. will. make. new tastes in mainland every three years and there's certainly more personal the new journey because normally are just coming wearing something sitting in there and you don't have any relationship to the place but here you really go this relationship. is very nice distancing in this is the only place in berlin where i really like to go regularly . back years national dish is sheep's cheese dumplings. so back cuisine is simple and hearty. it features the most of potatoes meat dole and dairy products.

one specialty is a sheep's cheese called. it is made from sheep's milk and can only be produced in slovakia. many slovak dishes are influenced by the cuisine of neighboring countries. case their cuisine is very close to nature and is very different in the north of the country than in the south of all the seedling. i'm not in the north they're more recipes with potatoes with cheese and meat as a side dish and fleisch of by live here and in the south they're more vegetables and meat dishes. good news that won't fly. be

a pita robot was born in one thousand nine hundred six in bratislava slovakia and grew up there just like fundamental. bunda has lived in berlin since two thousand they first met in slovakia and soon realized that they had similar childhood experiences both enjoyed cooking early on and spent a lot of time in the kitchen. it's been first. all i grew up with my grandmother. and spits in the hand instead of playing with toys. i grew up playing with joe. so the kitchen was practically my play room and i think sylvia grew up in a similar way. in this. the two slovak women live and work in quite back in the heart of berlin a district where many different cultures come together. they open their restaurant plots talk you know in twenty fourteen. the name is also
