know but i wouldn't say that we've gone feminist with asterix but that that just wouldn't work and that the. asterix and his power have to deal with a rebellious teenager it's a smart move in sydney how popular asterix is with young people he's even read it in french classes this one is peppered with references everyone will get the blacksmith's son for instance is called self thinks. see will but in will without these new characters it would hardly be possible to breathe fresh life into the existing concept you'll have her she'll move across. the reader should never feel were making a copy then all would be lost the concept has to recall the original but within this framework everything has to be new and different. france is going all out to celebrate this 60th birthday with surprise events in the paris metro and a special edition of asterix stamps. since if.

monks. take the good stride. try out. and play crazy join the race destroy. your romance or. subscribe. remember the rubik's cube this little puzzle that was all the rage in the 1980s now it always took me a german ages to figure it out and i still can't really one side well this little cube is now experiencing something of a revival thanks in part to one artist in italy giovanni can tarty is not just a master at solving the rubik's cube he also uses it to create pieces of art now we met up with him to find out why this little toy is his material of choice.
2:47 am
hello my name is running. the news of russia and this is the excuse. me can tardy puts over 700 cubes and as much as 2 hours into each of his portraits while he doesn't put in his glue either the frame holds the cubes in place or the image. falls to pieces as soon as it's completed he's got nearly 350000 followers on instagram he generally makes portraits of famous figures some of the stars share the images on social media when in him even more followers shares fascination with the cube. when people look at your solving a cube in 10 seconds they think of you as an alien someone from another planet same is with the artwork but it's something more fascinating. giovani can charge you started out by setting records he set an impressive 60 italian records 9 european ones and 3 world records he saw the rubik's cube in less than 10 seconds even
2:48 am
underwater. we asked him to create a picture for europe. he chose a woman whose face everyone knows mona lisa by leonardo da vinci. the challenge here is not to solve the rubik's cube as fast as you can but to resolve the image into pixels on the computer. how he does it is his secret. he only reveals enough to give you an idea. one of the the things that i do is actually work with the picture when he's still in black and white the reason is that i know. from white to black would looks look like one of the corners of the cube i like to work on the design when it's there on these 4. because i can keep it a little bit more close to the original into the. hardly anyone
2:49 am
notices that one particular color is always missing. i actually don't use a green because it doesn't look good together without a coat it's only 5 colors to create an image and so the hardest part for me is create that design which can take up to week or 10 days depending on how difficult is it. lives in the town where he was born the adriatic. he's able to live from his art he's even under contract with the new york city gallery sells his works to collectors around the world for 5 figure sums. but he sees no need to leave. he's done a portrait of the town's most famous son opera composer. good publicity for the opera himself and the town. is very.

2:51 am
it took your body can tarty only about 90 minutes to complete our mona lisa. of course the very last book is always satisfying. i love it i think it's great that. the 500 year old painting as a 5 color mosaic and the riddle of the rubik's cube portrait is concealed with a mysterious smile. extreme athletes are all about pushing their limits and german mountain climber. does just that she discovered her passion for mountaineering on a trip to south america just a few years ago and after that the sky was the limit since then and she's completed 12 expeditions in just 4 years and she was the youngest german woman to climb mount everest we hear from her now about what it takes to go to such extremes.
2:52 am
so tough the moment you are totally focused on the moment you live in the here and now that you're investigating landscapes. went on your block of trains in zurich she attracts attention the tires are meant to simulate heavy slopes in snow it's the optimum training for her extreme sport but that one with south i'm not a total sporting ace but i do have a solid basic fitness set and that's what's important for expeditions being able to keep up a certain performance over a long time she didn't start mountaineering tell us she was 25 but in 3 years on your block had scaled the 7 summits the highest peaks on every continent and she's the youngest german woman to climb mount everest but she also got to know the sport's dangers and said almost that any of my personally saw somebody die on everest and. and it makes you wonder what do i live for and how much risk am i
