passion drama competition rivalry marketing numbers atmosphere. intuition love hate money. fans friends fans fans and fans. on you tube. if you come across a polar bear on one of these. you don't have a car and i think. pretty much. hand on that no hello and welcome to another edition of your own max i'm your host megan leigh will find out later on if our reporter actually came face to face with

a polar bear but here's a look at what else we have in store. with that masha sawdust and bark me think kitchen wizard to step on views now. and he won't let himself be pinned down the violinist is kind are a big giant plays across all musicals on. but 1st as you know with the right photo editing software you can perform magic on just about any picture and that is what russian instagram artist igor the chance k. has done with album covers now he likes to incorporate himself into legendary scenes of the beatles madonna and guitarist tom petty among many others for the results are a funny take on the original cover and they're proving to be quite popular on instagram there's a closer look. baring her next 2. and one is david bowie up to. the russian

instagram a chance he gives famous album covers a new back story and gives himself a role in music history. from one of the in thing for me is to make people laugh and sometimes i think i managed to do that with the pursuit of comments that people write sometimes people take a joke even further or joke about what they see and that's the best feedback i can get. from. human creativity and a willingness to improvise a key cheering photo shoot chance he's covered as. today the idea is to turn the band queen into a 4 headed giant holding him in its hand. the 24 year old poses in front of the green screen that makes it easy to insert his function into the covers later university student. helps him get the idea shaped.

he meets him regularly at a university photo studio. but it's all extremely spontaneous we usually don't even prepare props or anything and during the photo shoot we figure out that we need something a piece of clothing or an object to find something in the studio with. the 2 friends usually edit the photos together. they try to match the details to the original and to get the proportions just right they only take about an hour to work on each cover live chance he started this project almost 2 years ago now he uploads a new photo every few weeks he has nearly 27000 followers on instagram already. from hip hop to classic rock will take on any style of music and any musician.

everywhere he goes live chance is always listening to music his favorite genre indie rock and hip hop he's been living in volgograd since he started university concerts by international bands are fairly rare here even though more than a 1000000 people live in this city on the volga river. nevertheless music inspires e-coli chance in all areas of his life including in his work as an advertising copywriter. by making these album covers i try to become part of the music scene part of the culture. i don't make music myself i'm not good at making music fonseca covers a console her be closer to the musicians and i love that. if chance he is always hoping for a reaction to his album parodies most of all from the musicians themselves he takes them in his posts and has even gotten

a few lights from the stars for him cover art isn't just something for vinyl collectors there from the age of the internet album covers are still very important because they are the face of an album is the 1st thing that a listener comes across even before they've listened to the music even if they've streamed it online or. after more than 80 edited chance keep. still enjoying his project just as much as when he started. the instagram already has a lot of ideas for his page the next one is to try and edges himself into music videos one thing is clear chance his creativity music will always remain a jumping off point. now things are about to get cold and dangerous in our new series euro max to the max we send our reporters to some of the most challenging destinations around europe and today we are visiting a small town that is home to just over 2000 people and they share that space with

polar bears now it's not an easy place to live as our reporter nicole firth found out. it almost seems like the north pole is just over the horizon a last outpost of civilization in the frozen north you may well be wondering where on earth i am i'm in long here and small part. i'm in your northern most town and that is by far not the only record long european holds this norwegian city is a place of extremes and today i want to show them all to you. just getting here as an odyssey from berlin i make my way to oslo from there it's another 3 hour flight i reach my destination there i am greeted by the archipelagos most famous resident

the polar bears. the south hard lines about halfway between the northern tip of norway and the north pole longer being with a population of around $2100.00 as the largest settlement is on the $78.00 north parallel no other settlement with over a 1000. residence lines farther north. time for a 1st look around but i'd rather go in the company of my guide frederick frederick and tess rifle polar bears could be anywhere here real ones this time. this is the best thing to with you when you go outside this town no secret trick to scare them away you know as to different kinds of bears in the world black. and white bears. if it's well laid out if it's black fightback if it's white good like it. not all animals

here are quite a scary longer being is home to about a 1000 huskies odin's out it takes care of a 100 of them. as of these are the no young came here in $24.00 a team from mainland norway for about a year now he's been running the sled dock kennel even in summer when there's no snow on the ground he and his employees take the huskies out every day in any weather. it's so dramatic all the time even if you just if you look about them over there we can still see it but in certain situations here as well but with the snowstorms and the weather that could be a point where you can't get help if something goes wrong i call that this you can make a bonfire if you get cold here you don't have a fire with because there's no trees. the lack of firewood isn't the only hardship and this former mining town. due to the

permafrost all of the homes here are built on stilts. it's practically impossible to raise livestock or farm still someone was brave enough to try benjamin vit martin a chef from the us. green by the way he planned. herbs and vegetables and his polar greenhouse. can even tease in the arctic. as i go to. benjamin 1st came back in 2007 and fell in love with the place the only problem was the lack of greens but i wasn't happy with the food situation you know you pay 50 kroner for iceberg lettuce that's a lot of money for iceberg lettuce and the stink in home i would never even eat i wouldn't even need if somebody gave it to me but here i'm like iceberg lettuce you

know you have to eat because you don't have anything else and i just was so frustrated so you know this is i have to do something either i leave or i have to do something. now he supplies local restaurants like the group a lager at which is our boss here fine dining is served up in a former coal mining warehouse head chef philip has served the likes of the norwegian royal family. philip has lived in longer being for 3 years as a chef year he's got to meticulously planned every meal well in advance. or the amount for a month to hit and very often we run out of something and you don't have a place where you can go and buy it. so we have this good gratian here we go the restaurants. so if i run out of something i will go out they can get a restaurant. the next morning i prepared to make an expedition.

fredrick fred back takes me to one of the nearby fjords. he wants to show me the wall of the tonight brain tidewater glacier. every time you come to a small boat or get out and make sure they like this different and that's makes it very special because it's like seeing a new place every time your thought. i'm truly impressed with long here being the northernmost town on earth. here in longyearbyen i've encountered far more extreme than i could have hoped for no polar bears but i did meet a bunch of extremely kind hearted people who all seem to share a deeply rooted passion for this truly extraordinary place extremely worth of this . group.

his friends and family know him as parents have fallen but the rest of the world knows him as d.j. bobo this was a music producer made a name for himself in the 1990 s. with a string of dance hits suspect because the magic doing the work never ceased like the movies were trying to get started. in europe max sat down with d.j. bobo for an exclusive interview to talk about his life and career. to you both about it we brought some pictures for you can you show us the 1st one sure i'm curious. for. to fish is that classic d.j. but that's it because sure the ringmaster that's from 2014 i like that yeah that's me. you've performed all over the world which audiences have you most enjoyed the latino latinos when you perform in europe it's a bit like

a football game 1st you have to deliver the goods and the audience will give you something back if you don't play well the crowd will stay firmly in their seats but if you play well there on your side. in south america the audience is in charge from the very start they're louder than you are. so you have a very emotionally charged intense relationship with them and they have got another . oh no that's how the way giving me a bravo auto award. that was a long time ago but you can still feel stadiums what's your secret. actually been trying to figure that out ourselves for years i always say to my people guys to stay ahead of the game that's where we're going to. i don't mean just in terms of success but in terms of growth we're always driven to discover

something new and put it on stage and i think a lot of people come to our show to experience that fusion of big hits and innovation at least i hope they do. and hopefully this is. what you prefer champagne. smoothies. say the sports car the city of the countryside the countryside cooking and baking. i can't do either even though i trained as a baker. baking is definitely easier. baking the mountains of the ocean the ocean. and we've got a photograph for you. lovely africa where was it taken. must have been ethiopia. business i'm. going thought about us i was visiting a school nutrition project was programs to run for the us you were there with the

un's world food programme yes what can we learn from africa. says today enjoy life these are the people they respect in nature most of us here in the west are mainly concerned with things that really aren't very important things to all they have to take care of the very basic matters like making sure they get enough to eat to see being part of their communities is. not a special forces what we can learn is that they're probably happier than we are because we're constantly wanting more and more standish for me to really think in najaf the folks in what you're proudest achievement. of to my 2 children so they're the best things i've ever done. thank you t.j. thank you thank you. and you can see that interview again on our you tube channel turning now to another swiss innovator chef chef on these now when he strolls through the forest in his

native switzerland he takes home everything you can find with him from haiti and stones to wood or action and it all ends up in his kitchen now in his search for new flavors the star chef works together with forester's perf you murs and archaeologists we join him out in the woods to find out how to cook award winning dishes with sawdust. out in the swiss mountains with his. they're looking for some tasty pieces of wood this spruce tree seems promising. with pretty much all the trees that grow in switzerland almost all of them are edible i was forced to sniff. today. pine. the 1st thing he does is if it. does it is turtles fabulous

stone by the yard for. the trees or will be captured in addition he's planning. home turf. for ingredients. these pieces of pumpkin have been lying on and. give the pumpkin an added flavor. a wonderful citric because of all the produce. better than limits. for the last 25 years and his team at the. in the village of. have been serving up swiss nature on a plate sometimes some heavyweight appliances are needed the pine is turned into shavings and put in a cooking pot. and heats shavings over an open fire.

distilled into a very good that has a delicate taste. uses the vinegar as flavoring. for example it goes well with venison. the garnish is roasted. they did like him and stone pine nuts a dish composed of 100 percent natural ingredients the 2nd course is the 4 make acid flavored pumpkin which is supposedly also very healthy these now wants his dishes to appeal to the senses his signature style has earned him all sorts of. stories the kitchen alchemist or the sorcerer. is just a few of the ways people have described me so. he works his magic in an old barn and this is where business stores his ingredients. he called.

this pine bark dates back to the stone age it's 14000 years old there was found in a prehistoric forest buried in loam. we use it to smoke and. he also finds a use for rusty nails and horseshoes and even stones the inventive chef turns them into flour made of swiss light iron ore and granite. style. flour made of rock or minerals is very healthy so long as you don't eat too much of it already granted every day and it does me a lot of good. today he's using it to make a dessert ice cream made of stone flour and served on stone.

that this business might be a sorcerer but he's quite a showman too. and his shows can be quite spectacular he prepares bone marrow and full view of the guests they love it and so do the critics on the sneers ancient cuisine has earned him a michelin star and 17 tokes. that. stand not to forget the experience they say later they can remember every single thing there and that's what's so special there's nothing else like us. rowing number of chefs try to copy stuff on trees near style but they can't keep up he's always refining his technique and recipes and he's not likely to run out of ingredients any time soon. and finally we take a look at a musical prodigy violinist is congar with jaya began playing the violin at the age

of 4 by the time he was 11 he had been accepted into the college of music in berlin well now at $32.00 he's performing on stages all over the world. did. the many faces of these kind of jaya a musician who doesn't like to be pigeonholed either musically or personally the berliner with indonesian roots is an exceptional violinist who finds inspiration outside the world of classical music some call him eclectic but he says the news it is all that matters. all to madly we make music to touch people to move them and to reach a point where we ourselves are so touched on stage that we can move others it doesn't work any other way than a method of. indonesia is kind are we jaya visits his

parents' homeland regularly he's a major star here. appearances in commercials and t.v. shows have made him a household name in indonesia here he performs in big concert halls like last year in jakarta at this benefit gonna for tsunami victims. i tried performing this balancing act popstar in indonesia classical artist in germany hardware but a while back i decided i only come as a package deal in him so even if i'm performing entails and in the nature and playing for the president i try to remain true to myself and be as authentic as possible. at a club in cologne germany. doesn't just perform classical music he plays everything from johann sebastian bach to

a cover of chandelier from pop star. pieces speak to me and it doesn't matter to me which is genre they belong to that's my goal in concert to break down this compartmentalisation people who come to my concerts should know everything's on offer. as in his music we john likes to try out different things and play with his image and not just during photo shoot. on stage i like to wear outfits that underline my interpretive approach so they can

vary a lot from extremely simple solid black and totally minimalist to totally over the top the it that's what i like in music to the one i was even close to. this kind of a giant began playing the violin when he was just 4 he was inspired by his grandfather who was a composer. after studying violin at berlin's university at the arts we jaya began collaborating with world class conductors like. 'd in berlin he met up with composer geoffrey ching who was born in the philippines and now lives in the german capital ching ri composed a piece by beethoven specially for him he's going to is the most amazing musician i admit because besides his absolute technical preparation in the most difficult and challenging contrapuntal classical works he has

a personality all of universal appeal. here he is recording demos for his next album which will boast a colorful mix of styles among other things the musicians are. experimenting with the piece by italian baroque composer pietro antonio look at tammy. mylan this is kind are we jaya a musical maverick at home in many different worlds. and with that it's time to say goodbye as always thanks for joining in and we'll see you again soon.
