the powerful water masses and foaming spray the rhine falls portrayed in a 360 degree work of art. visitors can emerge themselves in these images of the art installation reality the rhine falls in 4 seasons the project which brings the waterfall to life has been set up as a panoramic projection in an industrial hall right above the real waterfall close to the swiss city of shop homes on the rhine river plunges some 23 meters into the depths a site that through. to this day the swiss artist grew up here. for $50.00 and job for 15000 years this water has been flowing down here but it's. retreated it's always an impressive site so it humbles you at the top. it has such an hour but it's also tranquil in a way. some places are really shallow and soft.
12:33 am
whether it's the gentle rush of the water or the deafening roar of the the multifaceted grind phones attract many visitors. for 5 generations thomas manley's family has been transporting tourists across the rhine falls basin they've always respected the force of nature you talked about sort of inflation of the fascination for the rhine falls off stems from the spectacular nature here in the may the force of the water dog water is the element which beats all others more powerful than stone or fire or anything else and to see this fascination in the visitors eyes is what motivates me every day. most of the around one and a half 1000000 tourists who visit the rhine phones every year only experience it as a snapshot. they are tony only those installation aims to show how the phones change over the seasons. yeah your the immersive or the immersive art
12:34 am

12:35 am
a huge undertaking for bad tonio no lasting nearly 3 years now visitors can experience the rhine falls in a completely new way. as is that this is a it's a synergy that we as artists have the means to show what people might not notice standing here corporate moment you've got a spot on a bed afterwards up if you experience it through these technical or testing it made us you say hold on i didn't see it that way at all got me further because you might be immersed in less natural phenomena now in a different way you do if you up to a. day out tony orlow has added a new chapter to the history of the rhine falls visually stunning and full of poetry. from the poetic we move on to the mystical all reports on my computer is searching for a unicorn it's believed the myth of a hold white horse originated in india now. proven its existence but all over the
12:36 am
world people believe in this mythical creature or at least want to believe in it in scotland it's even the country's national animal but it's a town in southern germany which claims to be the secret capital of the unocal. my search for the one and only unicon has taken me to a town in southern germany this is the whole town of the unicon at least they say so so let's find out if this is really. cool but it's not like you find one on every corner. i was told i would see you everywhere in the streets and on the bad things they've been the town's heraldic animal since the 13th century. local resident michael salmon has agreed to aid me on my quest of course it's a bit hidden it doesn't come right up to you like other things you have to look for
12:37 am
the unicorn. but the unicorns are really everywhere almost every company that enterprise with this town has a unicorn in its logo or even in its name. often saying we need some unique on ice . to the $60000.00 plus residents that unicon is a part of daily life one even seems to have grown up in the park. out of it and. you have to look for them with your heart of people you love with your mind and reason you've already lost that's why the unicorns tend to turn out here in places where you have to look with your heart. to shine a unicorn would hardly want to hike right in the center of town so i try to well no luck i've examined every white horse because yes we know.
12:38 am
where are the unicorns where. back in town i had told the museum there's an exhibition about the unique recent evolution into kitsch . alongside interesting facts about the unicorns of yesteryear back in the middle ages some artists depicted unicorns as gold like animals. over time these mystical creatures only began resembling nimble horses symbol of self purity innocence and much this museum director max tema explains. do you any cons exist and how do i recognise them. if you'd seen a frog or that's
12:39 am
a tricky question. so cording to medieval legend only virgins can see unicorns of highest so that means we'd have to focus on that group until we wanted to spot the noise. so all i can do is make a unicorn. can you make. yourself more. first off we need some white ants some cherry flavoring confectioner be hard i can and i mixed it all up until they get it tasty. we can mold the stuff into any shape want as long as it's their hearts if we wait too long the muss can turn problem. finally my very own unicon so it's.
12:40 am
only gone everywhere what do they mean to you mark i like them mark i like their shape my really grew and i like getting them and i've seen some in the film. and in our shop the last unicorn died here are saying she was given rights most likely at the market square. so it seems my search is over. the life of a lollipop unicorn is quite dangerous enough just because of the rain. if there are really. pretty good. because people and this sounds german town feel a very special connection to these mystical creatures. next up we're off to lanzarote see one of the canary islands to find out more about the local wine the popular holiday destination boasts year round some sandy beaches on
12:41 am
the rocky landscape shaped by volcanic eruptions and so locals claimed that wine is made from the fire of the volcano while that's not quite true the vines are cultivated using a method that is entirely unique we took a closer look at the annual great populist. this is my head yeah the wine producing region on the island of land so. vines grow in 3 metre deep craters designed to protect the plants from harsh winds. wind grower pedro limits and his family have been farming in this land for 3 generations the grape harvest is done entirely by hand the volcanic ash plays a vital role in nursing the plants. what's important for the harvest is that the volcanic earth mixture stores the humidity of the rain for the entire year.
12:42 am
that's why the vines grow so well and are so fresh. wheat fields used to cover this land until a major volcanic eruption hit the island in 1730 lava spewed for over 6 years destroying the agriculture later it was discovered that the earth here was full of minerals conducive to growing grapes. ignacio remeron is a qualified biologist for him preserving the traditional methods of farming is the main priority. people had lost most of their land and so what they had to do was to continue surviving in this difficult terrain that's why they started to dig holes knowing that underneath was part of. something they planted the blinds in these holes and it turned out to be a real success and that's in a place where it hardly rains the ash storage $150.00 millimeters of annual rainfall the surface. each crater can produce up to 20 kilos of grapes or 20
12:43 am
bottles of wine the vines here are all organic some 100 of the 1000 wine growers on the island have abandoned chemical pesticides and instead of focusing on ecological methods to protect their crops pedro lima says one of the farmers who receives advice from her marrow on organic farming methods. the biologist explains why lime plays an important role at the malls where observing here is lime which in traditional organic agriculture is used to combat caution ale and sex symbol it has traditionally always been used but when people began using chemicals as a pesticide that tradition was largely forgotten well the logo for this is organic because what i use is sulfur and the line i wasn't getting any results with chemical fertilizer it just didn't work at all so i went back to sulphur which is what my grandparents used. to roll to enjoy the temperate climate all year round
12:44 am
the annual wine harvest here begins at the end of july taking place much earlier than elsewhere in europe farmers offload their grapes to the local wine cellars which in turn produce about $3000000.00 bottles per year alone number by industrial production standards around 75 percent of the wine stems from the mouth of a serious grave and it's sold across the canary islands the red and white wines are made for immediate consumption. if you know what i wine from lanzarote tale is unique in an outstanding way it comes from a very harsh climate with a lot of wind a lot of dryness a lot of heat and so the vines absorb a lot of intense tropical mineral aromas you know which we then also find and the wine. 250 years of wine making in an unlikely environment. but the traditional methods used on land to roast and has

a houseboat actually you really have to see it to believe it we met the polish artist in berlin where he showed us his unique process letting us inside his camera . if you encounter this boat on the river spray in berlin it could mean it's currently taking photos of you look how beautiful it is perfect sky. for this new feature i was hunting 2 years and only made it happen 2 weeks ago. when everything was perfect and this is what his voto of berlin spota museum looks like instead of carrying a camera with a polish photographer a much a market which stands inside of one his boat is a moving camera obscura a large scale pinhole camera the boat is equipped with a lens which is permanently fixed onto one of the both sides macia uses it to take
12:47 am
photos of landmarks such as the obama or the berlin cathedral. his color negatives can be up to 2 by 3 meters large and are directly exposed on of photo paper. this is my view finder and i am trying to find the motive in in the viewfinder once the motive is here. i press the shutter open click count 8 seconds and after a 2nd to close the shutter. early in the morning he wants to take photos of the berlin hike start. at 6 am the light conditions are perfect and most importantly however he's got the reverse way to himself the camera is moving when i think people are so so there's always this mystery until i recess the paper through the machine i never know what is going to be like. with his floating camera much
12:48 am
she has already taken photos of many european cities. in the back of the boat is his little photo chamber the exposure works according to the laws of physics analog and without electricity the world outside is projected on to the opposing wall in a mere inverted image through a lens unadulterated snapshots that much a market which leaves mostly to their own devices. as a photographer as we are almost. always or need to be in control of exposure up her chair or conceptually you have to be very today as it's very you have to be very strong about what you shooting and why but here i just let the camera do the it's all work it's not only about light and whether that matter much in markovitch needs a lot of patience to for each shot he has to fasten the photo paper in complete

darkness and. it's one of the most laborious ways of shooting photos from. light is perfect we are perfect slow 123. he's been using pinhole camera. various sizes to expose images on to photo paper since 2008. is unique. the negatives look like x. ray images and you seem to see right through the depicted motifs. in 2017 much a stream of having a camera obscura boat came true participating in numerous international photography festivals he uses it to travel through europe the boat has become his home including a kitchen and a folding bed. in the exposed photo paper is brought to
12:50 am
a lab for developing. now markovitch can see at this photo of the berlin and i stock has come out well. he never edits the photos by choice. whatever happens it's there and i don't do anything else except make sure that it's protected because even if i do another step of the process it will just dismiss this directness and immediacy of the process the beauty of just light inside the room being exposed to the piece of paper. for much the markovitch there are still many more motifs to be discovered for his next project he'd like to visit london to take photos of the city from the river thames. from photography to design now our next report takes us to italy to meet. the designer calls himself
