and a very skilled work involved in making maps which illustrate landscapes. the city of birmingham symphony orchestra in the u.k. seems to have a bit of a knack of finding talented conductors the current music director is the lithuanian conductor. appointed to the post while still in her twenty's rather like one of. the simon rattle now just 33 she's the 1st female conductor to have an exclusive contract with a leading classical record company gramophone and is in much to mom as a guest conductor as here with the door. yes that cashing meter to la is one of the most exciting conductors working today here and don't want to call her maestro me or go to 33 year old lithuanian will be

a regular exclusive guest artist there for 3 years her repertoire includes a rhapsody by polish composer lucius was signed back. i've. seen music on vine bag the music of vine basque is marked by the catastrophes of the 20th century when you've got those tough in this sunday's been yeah and that's not nice nothing bad has so many perilous regard to strangers to understanding on not understanding. to feeling at home somewhere on knox. to house a few litigant war diminished so many sparrow that it's so here and now that it's just shocking that's the sign but it shouldn't just that's why she devoted her latest cd to find that it was recorded with the city of birmingham symphony

orchestra whose music director she's been for the past 3 years she's the 1st woman to hold the position her predecessors include sir simon rattle in under its name sons who also started their world careers with this work a struck. an essential part of her concept for birmingham has been inclusive singing festivals in the past baltic oral tradition. and for fans of contemporary music concerts with the birmingham contemporary music or. c c c near gave herself her 2nd surname which means silence in lithuania it's perhaps in tribute to her homeland where the landscape is so vast. but her childhood was filled with music as the daughter of a pianist and

a choir master. this is my little evening sitting that way it is one of my favorite and in their lives my mother practicing piano preparing for x. concerts and so on and i lay in bed of busied myself with other things but always heard her practicing to bombs away that was less funny for most diseases. she also finds these moments of bliss and meter swab feinberg's music which is surprising because the life of the persecuted jews exiled to moscow during the stalinist era was an unhappy. maybe. it is you would he's polish is jewish but he was also a soviet man a man who lived in soviet union and this cultural heritage also burden which we still have to bear has so much that i rediscover and recognize and of course there

is also the great cry for freedom and by next music. then goes and sure enough i didn't invite him because he lithuanians fought for their freedom with human chains and forbidden folk songs near a girl who later appeared on television with one of those songs as a child of that baltic singing revolution. it. was a committed european who also relies on the power of music amid the chaos of. view muson vive we must continue to create lng spittoon cultures and that is what we want and will do all the more no matter what happens in the end and then in the us it. british designer and artist lim brendan mari has a vivid imagination to say the least he creates what can only be described as out

of this world wearable sculptures often brimming with all sorts of religious imagery and always very detailed he uses a special kind of latex made from a secret concoction of his own so that these extraordinary clothes can actually be worn by models and they can move around in. these dresses make models look almost like sculptures of angels for example. gloomy beings from the underworld. the designs of british artists liam brandon murray looked as if they were chiseled in stone. like the dark side of fashion. as well as the light side you know just as much i'm pretty much yeah i'm very much like the black. started creating

these details dresses about 20 years ago. studio works more like a sculptor than a tailor 1st created from clay before making plants. it's not fast fashion. so if we take the big black dress for example if i was to start from the sculpting process so. from scratch i had no sculptures the big black dress would probably take a round about 2 years to make. it takes his inspiration from insect. aliens and he even makes sure. that he develops himself. so what we have here is 7 different substances mixed together and especially greedy and i throw in there. this gross but this makes it a lot quicker are

a lot stronger. more longevity and with this substance even washable. the designs really come to life in the right environment such as an elephant and castle park and. the models are not used to wearing such unusual creations. it's a little bit hard i will say it's very it's lighter than you think because it's quite supported at my head so it's not hard to have and do you see anything i can't see a lot right. but that's not the point right now the model is part of an artwork . what you're worth something like. i'd love to be able to buy something like that's. not my style i'm not into skulls and things

like that. yeah very different could be the clothes for the future in i never know i kind of like them i mean different is and it's not something i would wear out and publicly looks crazy. anyone wearing a dress like this is trying to draw attention to the references to religion also a rounds curiosity this is a common reaction to that like people are fascinated by the critic to cause it to get a response like this is. exactly what you want for. there is no doubt about it liam brandon murray's designs are certainly i captured. extraordinary finally a look at a very special kind of. making panoramic maps are more optimistic than technical photographic representation of landscapes or cities which offer the

observer more of a bird's eye view of an area than a conventional and also a kind of. 3 dimensional view as well giving a realistic look to the area in question perhaps the best examples to illustrate are always. maps of the mountains. there's always that one moment if you will do mentor in the mountains this vastness beauty. how small we are it's impossible to grasp all of that. and then there's that moment in front of a panorama that in which you have some clarity reigns the mountainous masses so beautifully tidy it up finally understanding the mountains like a soaring bird what in your genius window. part of the gardens and of cartel around the maps are by no means images of reality

they actually reinvent reality they distort mountains they turn them around if you look at it with an exact scientific view nothing at all is true on a panorama mapped out on the cutting edge comics. can around a mouse are intended for promotional purposes. they must emphasize polish up oh man . this is the map of the 1976 winter olympics. dizzy faded bridge more than 2000 meters high should actually be here he was left off because it would have blocked the view of a portly venues and no one notices and around the painters constantly cross the line between reproduction and interpretation to this day the difficult question at the start of every new map is how do you paint a landscape that no human being can grasp in nature include shorter's foobar is one of the few remaining masters of this art our current assignment is to unite 9 ski

resorts on like a majority about 2000 square kilometers bana. to just one square meter. the preparations take 2 months including online image research since the areas too large to capture with one aerial camera. then. painting. with the arrival of google earth everyone thought at 1st that the computer would replace everything anyway and people often try to depict a cycle path or a hiking path with those images on the end of it and you can do that if you have only one mountain but if you have a concept of a man and the space you're meant to represent is bigger and some things become more important or unimportant then no computer program can do that this kind of computer . around the mountains don't show us mountains as they are but as we and madge and their images like stories.
