12:43 am
fifty cents but it's worth much more to martine ver the artist takes inspiration from old objects and his work centers around things that others no longer need. i usually look at a record with a square in the middle of the cover and also where i can get rid of the writing and or i have a relatively clear image within it i think. transforming one piece of art into another simple graphics become works of minimalist art it's almost impossible to tell what the original object is. only the smallest hint remains. like gold paint on the golden sound of klaus. and in conspicuous album titles left uncovered.

my time at the academy in my work became more rugged and said go up the leak that is in the log of what. these flying v. guitars are another of his recycling projects his materials come from a wide range of sources. i mean father's mind this was my old kitchen worktop so. there are positives and negatives like with all art and there's a sense of youth and it's cool to the good it's also a bit hard rock cafe which is really uncool so consequently. at the catholic academy in munich the world's weak sculptures rise five meters out of the ground they're sent to symbolize opening up the church to the world. your ex is very active on social media and facebook is just one. laughter visit

12:48 am
a rather offbeat way. a trip on the danube with a different not by boat but on a floating bus it's not unusual way to explore budapest. the trip starts off in the city center. the amphibious bus takes around ninety minutes to complete its route at first the tour doesn't seem much different from others in the city but this one has a surprise in store. this is this is a unique tour because sometimes you're on land and other times you're out on the river. today. our first impression of budapest draws us down to the water. the banks of the danube here are part of a unesco world heritage site. but first the bus rolls past some of the city's principal historic monuments and sites like st stephen's basilica where alongside
12:49 am
hungary and royalty and saints you'll find the final resting place of soccer legend fed and. then it's back to the bus which now heads for the water even though that's what they fade for the passengers are a little nervous. the audience of the danube is pretty rough today i'm a little anxious about whether the bus can deal with it hope we don't capsize. the high point of the trip is the splash down. the. aisle to the dramatic strains of thus spake zarathustra the bus descends along ramp or into water i'm past injuries heave a collective sigh of relief it really does float. along with us on the bottom on learn to drive just like a normal bus with six wheels under the engine on all. the water it's like driving
12:50 am
a giant jet ski just a little slower. out on the river new vistas open up. margaret island is a popular destination for daytrippers. it was named after a fourteenth century hungary in princes her father king below the fourth sent his daughter to a dominican convent on the island in gratitude for divine help during the war. margaret died there at the age of twenty eight. pm to be as bus cruises past the historic centers of the past and boarded districts on opposite banks of the river. on the border side is hungary's largest building good a castle. on the question side the country's parliament two hundred sixty eight meters long. modeled after westminster palace in london it was completed in one

thousand know for. another institution dating back to the era when hungary was part of a powerful empire coffee houses similar to those common in austria in the nineteenth century they could be found on practically every corner. some of the most historic houses are still in use today like jovo in the center of historic pitched it opened in eight hundred fifty eight. in budapest we have and we had in the past and amazing cafe coucher unfortunate thing during the colony is make it stick raised a little bit by. steel really in la i can love to go to coffee howell's from every race day for seats next to each other and talking about life. then is back to the river for centuries the danube divided the two central parts of the city the first bridge connecting them was only completed in eighteen forty nine
12:52 am
. to get them to fire i think the chain bridge was the first permanent bridge between past and buddha dead beat but the danube still plays the lead role in the development of hungary's capital the now. all. the floating bus slowly makes its way back to the ramp where it will return to dry land this unique journey through the hungary and capital is one the passengers will remember for a long time to come. and finally i think it's fair to say that most german men love two things in life soccer and cars now it may sound cliché or stereotypical but it is true and one man from feld pearson in southern germany has learned to combine the two in the spirit of the upcoming soccer world cup in russia he has come up with a way to bridge the breaks between the matches. here in the workshop

others perhaps can't go on that and. he started converting cars six years ago in his spare time he's made a motorized beer bottle a gingerbread camper van and a bobsled on wheels. and we have made some pretty crazy things returned a ford probe into a james bond submarine and once we converted a truck into a pool pool you could sit in it like in a hot tub. kong. skillful work and time consuming but the end result makes it worthwhile. really when he made you fall so when people see my cars it just fills me with pride if we can because a lot of engineering goes into it all but it's a lot of or you think and it's great fun or i feel so proud when i get everything to fit the path. and when all the hard work sober gets to kick back and take his creations out for
