so to celebrate this special anniversary the city of often put on an impressive light show and we were on hand to see it for ourselves. boston is famous cathedral bathed in light this city landmark was transformed as part of special anniversary celebrations forty years ago it was the first building in germany to be declared a unesco world heritage site the weather was cold and rainy for the opening night of celebrations but that didn't put a damper on people's spirits lighting designer christophe dillon has been working for one years straight to put this project together. at the moment is the first this is all about showing how the cathedral has always been exposed to danger in the course of its twelve hundred years in others and how the people of arkan have always saved it. on the in the context of this festival week that it's all a bit artistically interpreted into the theater. fourteen projectors and what's

called pixel mapping create the three d. lighting effect. decide and by doing this is a three dimensional image with you for those items here we see the front of the building which was scanned with a laser scanner which i did up with this and that means we have a real three d. data and we know from every point what distance it is from here. because of this and with this information we can go content with other special software that is adapted to the building you can notice what under. the cathedral enough in is a structure that represents hundreds of years of history the palatine chapel is the oldest part dating back to the eighth century. shahnameh largely considered the father of europe had a medieval chapel built as part of his palace it's the only remaining components of his residence. these remains are also kept here. this is true in and of also when you have world heritage status it's

a big responsibility to make sure the building remains preserved. or and. has all this. city must also ensure that there are protections owns around the cathedral get that there are no skyscrapers which would obscure the view of it or to adorn fleeing but the city and its people do all they can to make sure the cathedral maintains its status as a world heritage site it does this on the of course one unique feature of auction cathedral is that more than thirty kings were crowned here in the middle ages his crew needed an all clear and forms and up stairs we have what's called charlemagne's throne which was probably built during his time here on the from cardiff. to toward as in september one thousand nine hundred seventy eight the cathedral wasn't the only site here put on unesco's world heritage list the only imperial town surrounding the building is also listed keeping the cathedral intact cost about one to two million euros

a year. back on the square and the light show was about to begin still filin makes the final technical checks and then it's all systems go. because the trolls extensive history throughout the ages is the subject of the lighting installation. and it seems to have been stroll the audience. as well. as writing yeah you guys are fantastic and i'm not getting dome again of course we see the cathedral every day when you've got another modish but here we're able to experience it in a new way in all its facets including its history and he just be a good concious used to for and i wasn't aware of its history before even though certain facts are known of course are true and it was simply fantastic to toss

a show i love to somebody i love the components with fire were quite impressive and will continue to yours them as if i really enjoyed seeing the whole thing. just move on so cooking as that's what it was worth it who cares about the weather it always rains here none of us is what we said we don't want very well but also and it was very rewarding working on the concept in the whole project itself it was a lot of fun but for centuries awesome cathedral has some just a place of pilgrimage for millions of the thankful but this special event for its fortieth anniversary as a world heritage site has drawn towards from all backgrounds from around the world . well the french capital has started lots of fashion fans at the moment from around the world on that and today's express. on monday french fashion house christian dior opened paris fashion week it was a show that dispensed with the distinction between art and fashion.

expressing the collections themes of lightness and freedom the dance performance accompanied the models on the catwalk. for a spring summer twenty nine thousand collection dior seems to have discarded the mysterious ones typical of the label in favor of flowing robes made from sheer fabrics. at the mouth of the take is river near the portuguese capitalised when archaeologists have located the wreck of a ship that's over four hundred years old it's a sensational discovery amid the wreckage at a depth of twelve meters they found bronze cannons spices chinese of course one and shells that served as coins the ship one supplied the seaward to india for the spice trade and probably sank around the turn of the seventeenth century.

decisions the lean on each week begins on when. today turning germany's capital into a hot spot for the contemporary art scene. more than one hundred thousand visitors are expected to ring the five day event two hundred fifty are for naked institutions will be offering glimpses of beauty of the elements in the art scene. works by swish conceptual artist your yoshihiro for instance examine the effects of nuclear testing. also on hand is the. by german sculptor. the reflecting sculpture in the currently empty from ted weeks cathedral achieves its full effect only after sunset. he is an entertainer composer grammy winner and above all a gifted piano player some even call the canadian born jason back a shadow virtual as though how do you imagine someone like that on stage it might

not be what you're thinking because she took on solace as the artist calls himself performs in a bathrobe and slippers he has gone through some huge developments in his life from punk to professional musician and more now the new documentary set up and play the piano so as his incredible career. i was told by become. your own lawyer. to upper class chili gonzales on stage during the boundaries between passing punk jazz and classical like. my own kin tight shots in my childhood i was torn between two extremes i had my grandfather giving me these respectful piano lessons but then i go watch m.t.v. or m.t.v. kool. aid the film shut up and play the piano shows how canadian jason beghe came to europe in the late one nine hundred ninety s.

and morphed into chile gonzales. classically trained pianist became the rapping self-proclaimed president of the berlin underground it's a wild journey into the universe of an eccentric artist. from if the autobiography or memoirs of figures like klaus kinski had a great influence on me if you go if you close can see we were kids memoirs and i know they're not true this and this is this but fantasy is intimacy fun to see on stage i share my fantasies of the bruno my fantasy is to be a musical genius he is was a kind of show again he's my fantasy is to be this maestro who so disrespectful coming to a concert hall like the philharmonia in his bathrobe and slippers month and pontiff and phil how many zines to compose music. here to play the piano. this woman is one of several chilly gonzales double gamers who appear in the film and who must prove to the crowd that they can match the maestro's abilities as an

entertainer. do. you. feel. in the preliminary stages and during the research i was really taken by this character chile gonzales because it's all the effort he goes into this musical genius who switches so easily between genres who just launches into rap. and you don't want to miss the fact is that in the next day he's a solo piano distributed laying on the philharmonic call. he's a videsh and if i only came to see the resistance he must keep breaking down when i started working with him he's the units and that aren't in my utmost respect for this but i wanted my film to show how much work goes into making art. this piece is from his new album solo piano three guns i was surprised his

underground rep fans when he recorded his first solo piano album in two thousand and four. is a sort of piano album that solo piano album was a bit of a side project to which i had very low expectations but when i listened to the reactions people spoke differently about my solo piano work than about the rest of my work sinusoidal piano if you ask i just just has to find mine and i like that and it's my guess if my guy like it when people whisper start and psyched. your album helped me. and although he continued to work on pop and rap projects the piano has remained his focus ever since not just the instrument itself but also the way it helps him discover things about himself and the world around him. and then he said this note. or i would create a resolution. but in solo piano three i understood for the first

time that i can just leave that just an it note this or not is not last and. here we have the wrong note but it relates tension no resolution. shut up and play the piano is a playful and an archaic portrait of a man getting to know himself through music. and it should only serve to make chili gonzales more successful than ever. seen a lot of. the super as i try very very hard to create a connection with the audience and the smoke that's my priority it's like the first time you go to bed with a new partner that you try it hard and then you wait for a reaction done because a positive negative is this put on a playful person and every audience is like my new bed partner is political is v minor annoyance but part.

and anyone who wants to help the entertainer crowd surfing now has the chance chilly gonzales is on tour until the summer of twenty nine t. . so he's not only a good piano player but also fit as a fiddle that brings us directly to today's episode of extraordinary that takes where getting really sporty and the possible if someone you know plenty of videos taken by drones you know it's breathtaking landscapes for. a bird's eye view for example but the ones i'm no longer only used for camera shots are just a hobby pilots don't frying has developed from a leisure sport to a professional one since a few years there were even professional races we accompanied miles of my bone from the german team to the competition in brussels so op and the way.

much of my balloon come exonerate from zero to one hundred kilometers an hour into seconds without moving an inch he's a pilot or rather a drone pilot munches in brussels competing in a group champions league race as part of the german team he started piloting dreams three years ago. you know i have my doubts because if you had some point everyone thinks how great it would be to be able to fly over houses or train you can align to that moment of feeling free that was great that's what toy teams from eight countries compete in the dream champions league the d.c.l. they maneuver the quad copters through an obstacle course is fastest possible using special equipment i mean that it's like here in the d.c. you know we use relatively large drones they measure three hundred twenty five millimeters diagonally and have a minimum weight of seven hundred eighty grams and if you hear we have goggles the same ones we were on stage basically i have two lenses and then in two monitors.

essentially you have the image from a quad come to right before your eyes here from this camera all caesar come out put in all direct. to race in brussels monitor and his three fellow team members hope to show what they can do. they all began as amateur pilots but now they're professionals performing in front of an audience as a sports drone racing has become professional to help advise us all founded the d.c.l. . three years ago it's now one of the world's largest professional leagues his biggest success so far was staging a race on the famous shows easy in paris where a hundred fifty thousand fans follow the action. for. good in america in years. people are training more and preparing themselves better for the races. and they often attend various events the community the community knows the pilots and slowly they're becoming their heroes so long time to the heroes one of

those heroes is eighteen year old luke bannister he won the first drone grand prix in dubai at age fifteen even though most of the british team the favorites in brussels. i was pretty lucky when i started ice i thought this is a hobby when sports very young and like racing it just started and it was never really big leagues we just went to fail through it all mates and gates and i got scouted for a team and that's where it all started and since then it's just been yeah just became pressure became something i do for lending money to my boom hasn't made it that far yet he's a systems engineer but he devotes most of his free time to flying his drone and posting his latest stunts on his you tube channel but he dreams of eventually earning a living from his home. run by one and of course when you're flying here in the d.c.u. you have that in the back of your mind. well i think i figure i'll give it two or

three years and see if something comes of it. if i can earn money and make my living from it for the. progressions in a sort of model for leaving. but first the german team has to win some races in brussels they get off to a good start but one by one bite and his team members crash out of the race. after the first round it's game over the boys and i give mine. we need to finally store a victory last year the guy stored several ways this year things are going so well and so. much for luke bannister things are going swimmingly the british team wins raced off to rinks against spain the u.s. and the czech republic truly in the favorites and wind up in first place once again .

since the weekend units have told a fest the wii's this in full swing again people are swaying to breast music and having a beer or two every year millions of visitors come from all over the globe to bavaria to experience the world's biggest folk fest you should definitely be in the party won't amount pay attention to a few things let's find a more serious here are. fine things you should know before you visit october fest. some people say time passes differently in bavaria so if you're planning to go to october fest get ready for both very good timing which we award misplaced because even if it's called october fest since night you know for it started in september and ended in early october the reason for various bad fall weather.

beer steins vanish every year. don't just make sure you're wearing something that has to be special second place among the things you want to know before going to october fest is the bavarians dress code felt hat checkered shirt. covering the knee and later holes in made of one hundred percent leather are a must. women should pay attention to how they wear the bow on their deal on the left an ounce is that the wearer is single on the right says she's already spoken for sorry fellas and a bow in the middle traditionally meant the wearer was a virgin a. couple in the back a widow but also the most important person in october fest a waitress. the waitresses supply visitors with the most basic october test commodity a leader a beer but watch out first place goes to what's called october best beer or bees in

beer that has special qualities. selected breweries prove easier especially for the festival more original work gives it six instead of normal beers five percent alcohol so it goes to your head faster than regular beer but october fest that just makes you one of the crowd every year over seven million liters of beer are down that october fest cheers. want to know more about european lifestyle and culture visit euro max on facebook. you'll find highlights from our programmes. three hundred sixty degree videos of the most beautiful places in europe and snapshots taken by our reporters take an exclusive look behind the scenes at how the program is produced and followers on facebook live. we love it when fans visit our facebook page and give us their feedback visit d.w.
