public is familiar with the sound of this forbear of the synthesizer from horror and science fiction films it's still used occasionally on soundtracks even now. because this tradition came about because when the fireman was 1st developed musicians played with lots of abroad even on the violin and other instruments. among us if you apply that to fareham and it sounds a bit spooky. carolyn i got her very 1st there and then at age 7 she learned to play from among others the inventor's own grandniece. by age 16 she developed a new technique that's now in general use worldwide that allows the musician to play with far greater precision the instrument reacts to every slightest movement.

7:37 am
wood candy. the christmas tree looks good enough to eat literally. on our christmas tree is actually a food with a very exciting taste that just stands in our living rooms and has never been eaten before. but let's start at the very beginning to its season and la is a woodland ecologist from austria in a forest outside of vienna he collects wood to use as an ingredient in some ingenious recipes trees aren't just for building and decorating they can be tasty treats or wood has an incredible variety of flavors everything really from the oak trees vanilla and chocolate to taste with a bit of coconut to the populars honey flavor or the alder tree with a touch of raspberry it's really an unbelievable range. just like the bark of a cinnamon tree species can also be tapped to use as spices his favorite is finally
7:38 am
ground plane bark. flavor is very interesting it's very intensive with a resinous touch to it as you might imagine but also if you know the taste of really dark chocolate the 100 percent cocoa type it also has a bit of that. the trees edible layer is called the can be and it carries water up the trunk into the branches and crown sees that allaah got the idea to sample the cambium while out canoeing one day and he observed a beaver family on the shore. a light bulb went on in my head who would know better about the taste of the tree than the beaver that list from it and always looks quite well fed. so i started to try out the bark and cambium from various trees. those are the parts the beavers actually eat the. ecology and eating. interests that go together quite well the woodland gourmet has
7:39 am
a rather original plan for discarded christmas trees. so it's now i'll show you how you can prepare the entire christmas tree by from the needles down to the bark cambium and even the wood. first of course the decorations come off then the pine has to be stripped down. 2 for the 1st course the needles are ground up and mixed with knots parmesan cheese and or oil to make a creamy pesto. to get to the juicy cambium the bark has to be peeled away from the trunk it can be fried in a while to make up crispy and surprisingly delicious chips. for dessert i'm sure dries the pine bark and beaks cookies with it. he has to grind it
7:40 am
up very fine. mixed with butter sugar and a little flour it yields a dove with a somewhat chocolaty flavor. or it's a good and lastly the ground dark is mixed in and the oven a wonderful pine aroma one fold. and so with a little preparation and a bit of imagination you don't need to sit down at an empty table you can have a 3 course christmas tree meal next year the old tree won't get thrown out but cooked baked served up and eaten the woodland ecologist has no doubt whatsoever. my business tree tastes better than any holiday dinner.

leaving. states can only be entered safety during the winter months when the ice overhead stayed after it warms up many of them disappear forever. in the summertime the temperature goes up the ice is melting. we've got water flowing this is cutting the ice which is creating the caves but also the glaciers are retreating because of global warming so when we go to the cave at the edge of the glacier the next year it's more probably gone it's a melted when we have to go looking for nuking. the next day i approached europe's largest leisure from another side. richard bellows taking me to another glacier tom . the higher we climbed the ice here and.
7:50 am
here i'm beginning to realize the true dimensions of this glacier. the ice reaches a maximum of 950 meters thick but like most glaciers these days the outlook is just retreating. likewise there was almost a top of that large. that was probably all of the ice here so it's gone mad. yeah i try to have committed the last 100 years it's a very fragile organizer if you want so when are that china going to last another sort of target of 300 years and then march that will be gone. on our descent the storm took us by surprise. at the foot of the volcano you could glacier confronted with the vastness of nature i suddenly feel very very small. blip was

good design has a lot to do with acrobatics a good ass a bag can manage to make things look elegant even if they're very complex. or complex in. the us design is a floor lamp that functions without joints instead to move will clips attached to an electrical cord and now the fiberglass rod to be adjusted to position the lamp is made of mostly recycled materials and can be disassembled without the use of tools it once defined deets the german sustainability award for 2021. we made i know it's lamp here almost 5 metres high we came up with this concept a flexible rod with a super lightweight shade attached and we tried to push it to the extreme. so we can put the lamp in a corner and eliminate a dinner table almost 3 metres away. the floor lamp to manufacture a mint guard is based on their well known model type 113

the german manufacturer of the khan was released it uses materials for undercarriage uncomforting production in the auto industry and was awarded the prestigious red dot design award the development took 4 years because of course you can't just walk up to b.m.w. or mercedes and say let's make a chair some designer they don't know approaches them with an idea and of course the company wants to know if they should invest in the project so for me a lot of time goes into this kind of research into finding a partner who wants to work on the project with the element of craft for him to do before studying industrial design he completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter today and he of munich studio together with 4 product design as he develops designs the top produced by such prestigious labels as my 15. i think design is primarily about a light touch even if you're in bishan for a project or project is immense you can't lead to imbue the process with havingness
7:55 am
. that has a lot to do with humor and you have to succeed in taking a playful approach. like that dietz has already designed around 50 products he likes to think outside the box and meanwhile has become one of the most important german designers working today his most recent project is a modulus sofa system the slip covers can be changed quickly and easily proving that. a flexible and sustainable approach to design never goes out of style. and that brings us to the end of i want to show but visit us online where you will find many more interesting reports as well as our viewer draw we're giving away this backpack full off goodies join us again next week by life long.
