but we begin with the rise of the instagram poets wait a minute instagram is a platform for photos yes true but if you take a photo of your poem and put it on instagram well there you have it now a number of body young bards are found the same this way including arch hades who writes rather old fashioned rhyming verse which didn't appeal to the publishers at 1st but it certainly struck a chord with the public. is a poet for the 21st century the young londoners posts a verse have gained 280000 instagram followers proof that the insta generation is interested in just flashy photos and the poetry is a line in. katie's poetry career started with a failed marriage she wrote her pain into poetry self publishing an e-book titled high tide poetry and postcards at 1st no one was interested but when she started

posting the poems online with elegant self portraits people started buying her poetry so many that have big publishing house approached it with a book deal. instagram can sort of be taken as a quite a shallow place that may not necessarily be a petri dish for you know propagation of great literature it's still a wonderful place to spark interest and to sort of encourage people to follow you and then sort of follow your journey and then when when a book or books come out there's so much more ready and keen to consume your work so it's a great starting place if you want to be a writer. the rise of insta poets is the latest chapter in the story of online going to print big role model is group of canada. 3.6000000 followers she's a star poetry volumes the bestsellers with millions of copies sold making. possibly

the most successful poet of the present day since her ascent publishers have been desperately searching for the next big thing i did just with my cheap human poet to rival his success sales of interest language poetry are up 50 percent and female readers and writers under things and the reason why. it's not just english kareena munich germany is another insta polish is not afraid to publish the most intimate feelings on the web. as friends emotion been mutilated on that so i think it's lovely when people tell me that my text helped them through a rough time. i mean it makes me so happy. it's actually kind of surreal when my writing can do that it takes the hosts was also. writers like kareena eckel don't need the critics approval to be rewarded with likes as long as they work clicks with readers online or off i don't need to get a good review feel bad one. day

is a pakistani video artist based here in berlin and currently has a retrospective margin call p.s. bow and here she is in one of her video installations reading the news as a pakistani news reader and then as an india news reader the news is the same but with a different slant of course an indian has taken an egg from a pakistani head or a pakistani has taken an egg laid by an indian hand and this sparks international crisis. now of course there's much more but i'm just. a satire on the divisions between pakistan and india or actually much more. well a bit autobiographical because my parents are originally from india and migrated to

pakistan so it is that's why it's me on both sides of the border so it's split identities. and the politics of this post national this nationalist sentiment of separating languages on one upmanship whether it's the nuclear arms or you know casual jokes or ethnic humor. it's something we live with in south asia it's very much part of our identity now you're quite critical about pakistan i mean one example is the installation i was at your exhibition earlier today and the one you've done about these $150000.00 chairs that were laid out for a special occasion to to see the national anthem say the national anthem and then it was council the last moment sort of government incompetence if you like i wondered you do have a go at the authorities sometimes you safe passage star i mean i think it's more humor about power so it's about address issues of power over civilians but

the art world is actually very verified and exclusive for the most part so i think . writers and filmmakers and journalists are the ones who are more at risk and if there are any i think the odd word you can still do a lot of stuff and it goes unnoticed by the authorities and i think there's humor in the work which is the most important thing so i think people people can find themselves laughing even if they know they have been criticized let's have a look at another video this is a border. you see used that is quite a theme i mean again in the exhibition today there were these security various areas of pictures you painted but this is. i presume this was staged i mean this continues the 3 really or is it a different thing no it is it is about about manipulation and about statement of pollution about spain. manipulation and architecture in the city which creates

border between classes and people and between different ethnicities. so it carries through all the one about people going through the yellow lines is more about people waiting for visas actually now you came to berlin 8 years ago on a scholarship and decided to stay why did you stand berlin what's it about berlin well i think that's something that a lot of people who come on the day are day but in a constant program end up staying so that's a funny thing but in my case it is my ex-husband is indian and my son is has an indian passport i'm pakistani and it kind of served us and it's to be in a neutral country in a city more difficult for the 2 of you to live by one of those cities let's have a look at some still photos archie decide to see the one behind me now these were intriguing this man on a street reading a newspaper and there's one of a woman i know i have is coming up of this is ironing in the street of static

that's my mother so it's. a major acted out so they all actors and it's about tracing the original inhabitants of. it which is a very diverse ethnicities and different religions so it's kind of an homage to people who have always lived in the city and who made the city in some ways and about the city becoming more homogenous in terms of muslin you know how come the city was so deserted because every all the muslim community was breaking that fast so it's actually done during ramadan so i brought out my protagonists on the streets. now your current exhibition which i said is really more of a retrospective because it's pretty big that's what happens when these old men become. the modern group is back to 22nd of september until so if people come to bill and they should go because the martin group is well worth a visit it's called they died laughing very. briefly why i just like the agency of

laughter and kind of cripples people. no wait a minute. yes yes all right thanks very much for being with us thank you. beer is a major part of german culture and there are strict laws governing how it is brewed those that go back over 500 years believe it or not despite these restrictions the germans proof 5000 different beers which cater for every taste makes the mistress combinations to more on this from our intrepid reporter in our series meet the germans. news just in the germans who love. the average german drinks more than 100 liters of beer every year once i went to the spa and they even have. been literally all over the home calls what a waste another clear indication of this national passion is the fact that most
