bring heaven down to a late abstract artist also pre-nup. but joining me straight away is john anderson the boss of all drug addict records this is a classical record company which is a bit special because it's a nonprofit making co-operative which puts the artists in charge it sounds wonderful joel. but how does it work because you have to make some money to pay people who who work for you of course we have a team of fifteen effect that we have to pay and that is a talent obviously but the goal with with all to take was to find a way of making. something in the world of something which is not really of the world soul music which is priceless which is not transactional which is as a value completely different from commercial value soul but in some way finding a way to commodifies it to put in a marketplace and to do
10:46 am
a service to the artists who are collaborating with us ok now and i like the way you choose who you will record it's a bit like one of those things on the something called the voice on the television whether you know it's kind of behind oldish and says these are you exactly this. is the scientific peer review process that we've co-opted for for arts. again the idea here is that we're trying to find a way to. choose our artist choose a repertoire in a way which is not motivated by a profit motive by a marketing decisions and things like this and so what we what we built was a platform to which people can apply and send a demo but that is evaluated by the actual rostrum members themselves of the label and they receive a link with just the music so we don't know who they are where they're from and a woman if. they're old young famous knots we evaluate really on the bases the
10:47 am
music itself and the interest of the program let's let's hear someone who who got through as a scientist and process this is the italian pin is victorio forte playing a piece i know. i should just mention that it's right man and all but it's an especial arrangement is. ok now the records for all of the label just seems to be mostly contemporary i mean the very first thing you brought time was piano music or first
10:48 am
of yes you know i mean that's quite a nice market well the interesting thing about this is that it's not a decision of myself or or an explicit policy of the label but the music which does make it through this filter which we apply the pure of you filter is the more innovative programming stuff which is less represented the stuff which we have already heard thousands of times just as a natural result of our selection process i think we'd be in the doing all yeah ok now you said in an interview with. the cd is day that it's all going to go wild laws so how are you going to make money oh should i say make enough to keep going so it's certainly true that cd players are being built on the cars and the computers is going to go the way of vinyl at some point there are always be collections and there always be artists who need to to make c.d.'s also because.
10:49 am
it's a good business card having a tangible moment is very good but but yes there's no doubt that the market is moving towards digital and we're moving in that same direction or developing various online platforms which we hope will position isn't a good place to be the interface between musicians the music industry and the public and you've got a jazz label. again let's hear some music this is again an italian artist massimiliano. hopefully are pronounced and his band that's our quickness. that's the school a rainy day on your jazz label just briefly what are you doing here in germany the
10:50 am
home of the mighty dortch a gramophone and you're hoping to sort of put them out of business all in all there's no not even any intention of competition in the sense what we're trying to propose is an alternative to that. so the major labels they control more or less eighty percent of the market but it's a dime market it's also also they're struggling and in my opinion. the fact that the digital revolution that's part of it of course but it but it's actually a symptom of i think taking music in the wrong way and so we're trying to present it in a different way which we think is actually a positive way for the way that will get us out and of course the digital revolution for us is a good thing you told sound this is really fascinating we need more enterprising entrepreneurs entrepreneurs in the business especially in the music business ventures of course changing good luck though you are still anderson thank you from
10:51 am
. thank you very much for joining us you might be interested in this next piece if you want to place in london a little office in london. the olympic park in london encompassed five hundred sixty acres of east london but after the olympics finished in twenty twelve what became of this vast sites well most of the buildings have been put to good use including what used to be the press center an enterprising group of architects have now turned it into a technology park for startups. in east london compact and colorful studios have been built in the space that served as the international broadcast center during the twenty twelve olympics. nicky gaskins works well for can sprout architects he and his colleagues designed the gantry. hugely positive for london i think for the local area but because of the level of
10:52 am
development it happened. it's swept away a lot of the sort of local history and so we want to do this project as a way of reminding people about parts of the local history that they could be proud of. the bright colors used to this studios facade for example echoed the wrappers of sweets that used to be manufactured close by. the architects didn't draw inspiration only from local businesses one studio facade commemorates an unusual landmark that used to be in the area. before the olympic. there's a very frank famous local landmark on the canal which was nicknamed fridge mountain . existed for years it was europe's largest white goods dumping ground. the tenants of the twenty one work spaces are as varied as the studios facades the mix includes a record label to music studios architects engineers and designers. scally
10:53 am
is house manager his employer the trapper he was hired by the technology park to look after the studios and its tenants. he explains what really sets the gantry a process. we can make beautiful spaces you can design amazing spaces you can have great views but ultimately the thing that makes this place tick make it last beyond me to the tramp or even as a company will be the stories and the collaboration is a network that happens for people interrupting day to day covering the business to go. there sure to be a lot more fun in these colorful studios. now the art museum just outside born in western germany is named after her and sophie are who were two of the pioneers of abstract art in the early twentieth century the current exhibition their features works by auto pina who was actually one of the
10:54 am
great abstract artists of the second half of the tried to century concerning himself predominantly with light far the culls. how do you bring heaven to earth how do you paint with light how can you reach outer space. the exhibition alchemy list and stormer of the skies explores artist auto pinas universe and finds his work exploding with raw power. like this volcanic eruption which practically flings its lava towards the viewer pina did not paint pictures like this with a brush but with fire here trying to hear it really seems to explode on the canvas . it's called the fire because often i pay no always took a circle as his starting point and then sprayed it with a national paint focus manipulated it with the fixative and then ignited the whole
10:55 am
thing that's going to end soon and that and the engineering this process of ignition cheering the heat the paint would run you can see red spots the pain. renne down like a melting pot so to speak and cemented a certain low meant he blew out the fire line. and what remained was solidified matter up to material. so pina was using new painting techniques at the end of the one nine hundred fifty s. it was also during this time that he co-founded the artists' group zero. this wasn't it seems there was a kind of turning point after the second world war that they wanted a more ideal world there was basically a transition to silence to tranquility. so what did peter have to say about that in twenty thirteen he visited an exhibition of his work in cars with. his instincts and bit down there was a need to see something in the light instead of in the dark against it and go in
