literature invites us to see people in particular that i can see my son as the kids finds growing up. might object to what. he does or you go on you to. me. they say there's nothing better than a friend unless it is a friend with chocolate more on that tasty treat later on in the show. i really want to welcome to another edition of your own max with me your host megan leigh here's a look at what we've got coming up on today's program. we'll see how one artist

uses it in her expressive works. and we will raise alongside one of europe's fastest unicyclists as she breaks records. but we start off the show with folk songs which are making an unusual comeback now have you ever heard of sea shanties these folk ballads were sung by sailors who during their work it's see now you're probably familiar with this one. from oh what shall we do with the drunken sailor or one young scotsman decided to revive these centuries old tunes during lockdown in the coronavirus pandemic and what the again as a way to pass time for nathan evans has turned into a runaway success and has even landed him a record deal. see

there. was a simple rhythm and a centuries old melody has changed nathan evans live forever. well a man is a sea shanty evans' rendition of this maritime work song has earned the scotsman a spot at the top of europe's pop charts. i mean it's like a dream come true. i'm just we hope. that's because until recently nathan evans was a postman in the town of airdrie new glasgow in his free time he'd uploaded videos of himself performing pop or folk songs to tick talk at his followers request he started covering sea shanties like we've heard johnny. in

the moment. pining. late last year evans landed a surprise hit when his version of the new zealand wailing song soon made the woman come. i thought. have a good. move on to the next song. that i expect. a song that would bend the charts and all all into. this song made a big splash and soon the internet was flooded with people singing during the corona pandemic sea shanty clearly touched a nerve as it tells of the moaning that said see what you want to talk it is. a space so that everyone is stuck at home. everybody just. friends.

and everybody. show. yes just i think it. people. have been putting a smile on people's faces since the 15th century. would be out at sea for months so . chosen to lead the singing in response songs would sing the man and the rest of the crew saying the response. in the digital age the internet community has taken the place of abode using tick tocks function virtual sailors courses have sprung up all across the globe. even prominent musicians like us violinist lindsey stirling and british guitarist brian may have gotten swept up in the shanty craze.

i was speechless when i. seen all these people. just think. that. with a recording contract in his pocket nathan evans quit delivering to concentrate on his musical career he's currently working on his 1st album and eventually hopes to go on to. run aground. again. i would i would do the opposite and take this as an experience and take it

with me and i don't own job it's the only thing it also makes no difference to me it's to base an evidence has cost off his safety net and his seizing his chance he's now $1.00 step closer to his dream of being able to live from his music one even if the man is done. and sticking with a maritime theme this next piece is all about the surreal fashion created by the artist van narrow. this headband is just one example of her conceptual art but others involve actual fish and as you'll see soon she incorporates them into her masks and costumes to express or even hide her inner feelings now we met up with the artist in moscow to find out more. and raw fish be a fashion accessory. that's how russian armenian artist the

nearest sorrow of a stage is from model at a photo shoot in moscow. the fashion designers unusual combinations have garnered her international acclaim. i have no women with the material and. i can combine paper with law were always appreciate because with me i want to write the diary but for me it's for making a mask. to her masks are works of art and a means of self-expression. the new yorker's sorrow that has been working on her mask series since 2009 she's already made around 100 fanciful face coverings ever since she finished her degree in fashion design and moscow masks have played an important role in her creations by mask i cover my. real face and it

gives me a child protection maybe and a t. and the mask is kind of her future for me because i want to show my real emotions. on the face marmar phrase but i show my emotions through the textures the technique and the materials. the new yorker saw over designs costumes and props for theatre productions like this one in the russian city of perm in 2020. 3 years before she worked on the fish project at moscow's gorky park. and in 2018 she contributed to the moscow staging of book land. time and again the designer mixes materials that don't seem to go together. her current series fish and flowers is no exception because sorrow is inspired by fairy tales and surrealism fish are recurring symbols in her work ones that are meant to

cause people to stop and reflect. this dress with and always thought beautiful because it's combined with paul worse and then the white paper it's actually very beautiful but it is kind of ok but. alive and water is the head and. it's kind of. wild and. is on her way to nikolai gogol house a museum in the russian capital she was invited to take part in a group exhibition here entitled the islands each participant was given a room and free reign to show off their creativity. the new yorker's star of his installation features paper flowers printed with images of meat here too she makes

a connection between pretty plants and dead animals. paper is one of her favorite materials to work with. but what attracts me in paper . there's nothing more for a white sheet of paper. paper also plays an important role in her latest photo shoot. i never thought it was quiet. and that makes me do it again i'm always looking for perfection. because sorrow stage is surreal dream where. that unmask her passion for the absurd .

who doesn't like a nice creamy bar of chocolate well the swiss are masters when it comes to making it so what better place to head than switzerland for a lesson in our food series food secrets we explore what goes into european specialties that everyone knows and enjoys so for a glimpse into the secrets behind milk chocolate we met up with experts in the kitchen and in the field. whenever i go on vacation i always bring chocolate along always. without cocoa there's no chocolate no way around it.

there i think so magician only swiss chocolate is a kind of milk chocolate and we produce a dark milk chocolate which contains 56 percent cocoa how. i'm a co-founder of the floor chocolate factory people and we produce chocolate by hand to show. you how thing in the end the main ingredients for chocolate include 1st of all sugar soca them then we add cocoa butter which is the fat crust from the cocoa bean from the board that next is the milk powder so if we're making a milk chocolate it's just as we've heard. in cocoa beans are the most important ingredient for making good swiss chocolate. all regionally

from south america then i came to central america and eventually to africa. my name is christian velez i'm originally from colombia where i run a cocoa plantations i chose cocoa because i've always wanted to do something that connects my 2 countries of origin switzerland and colombia. to cocoa tree grows up to 5 meters tall grow on the trunk and multiple branches like normal fruits to. take the cocoa apart and cut it open and you find the beans inside the fruit. you place these fruits in wooden boxes and cover them with banana leaves this introduces eastend bacteria which initiate fermentation then 48 hours later you turn them over this process takes $5.00 to $6.00 days in all and you have to keep turning the fruit to different intervals and depending on when you turn them you can bring out certain flavors.

the 1st thing we know that to remove. when you when you peel the skins off and you end up with. pieces of the beans and this is where recipe starts. out on these baking sheet and then we roast them in the oven. each recipe requires a different kind of roast and. the. fish are made fresh milk. chocolate don't go together well so we can't work with fresh milk we always have to use milk powder. and. here i have the roasted nips. and this is a stone i mean. sure do the shy middle of the how this one has to granite stones

and they in the kettle turn it to think that i know which causes friction if you push a now up or in the coke an absent nice and slow scene i'm. but this time for the sugar. free comes a long time in my poor that and gradually as well if i'm to be when it's created a paste i can add in the melted cocoa butter cow both at the station. they made on sure the grinder works as a conscious at the same time you can cut just to show conch in means stirring the cocoa paste to mix air and to improve on that which reduces the acidity me tell you know that's what gives our chocolate this will very fine sweet taste using bombs and then using fishlock. to move the shaking table gets out all the air bubbles still trapped on the

chocolate we don't want to be bubbles in the chocolate bars. and i think we can make a lot of people happy with our chocolate and that's why this is my dream job. yummy and if you would like to see more reports about mouthwatering specialties from all over europe and make sure to check out our you tube channel w food. like you see these. stories. to see as them. the smell amazing the best chefs with their best chips from need to shift to be king diet and order recipe

secrets while. europe's diversity is a smorgasbord my list. subscribe and enjoy deep w. food. biking through town or on trails is tricky enough on 2 wheels especially when you pick up speed so you can imagine how hard it might be when and navigating on only one wheel now the producers of the show went to a lot of trouble to bring in a unicycle into the studio and this is where i could probably demonstrate for you but instead of breaking my neck i will leave it up to a young german woman who is breaking records on her unicycle. the unicycle back in can make up to 40 kilometers an hour.

and you call me nuts a combination of speed balance and the high risk is what fascinates me the most. just days riding high in the saddle bag can keep so concentration and her eyes on the road and the little good presents an obstacle. top gets one and. i do have a handlebar but it's mostly so i can lean into the wind and not for support on bicycles you can hold on to the handlebars the unicycle doesn't have anything to stabilize you say you have to find your center and learn to build speed and confidence without using your hands. it takes years of practice to learn to ride with this kind of speed and skill even as a little girl. felt magically drawn to the unicycle and began taking part in competitions. balancing hasn't always been well appreciated on the contrary.

as a kid i got in trouble for tipping my chair up on one leg and nursery school and rocking back and forth while. so they told my parents they suspected i had a movement disorder. my father was sure that wasn't true and he got me into sports that was the best decision he could have made and i'm very grateful to him for it. now what aged 20 she's collected medals and prizes the world over at the 2018 world unicycling championships in south korea she churned out 5 world champion titles in various disciplines. finally in 2020 she broke the world record for the longest distance covered in one. with over 33 kilometers on her unicycle she even beat the men's record. in fear in many of the physically demanding sports that's just unthinkable that was

another huge step forward and that's really special to me. yana tandem bag was born in the french border region. now she lives in berlin and hopes to study lol she set up a little workshop in her room in the apartment she shares she owns 15 unicycles to various purposes one even has started tires for off roading. as often as she can she takes off to go riding cross-country another discipline that yana tandem bag and hold the world champion title for. and the only one she's got injured herself doing. has been martin baca from his mountain biker hit my unicycle from behind in a mud hole and my leg got caught in between his crank and my shin bone. i finished the race and won but afterwards i had to go to the medic. was pretty small and up but that's the worst that's happened to me outdoors so far. in comparison the ride

home through means rush hour traffic is like a walk in the pocket a unicycle in town may be an unusual sight but it's quite legal and it helps keep you on a 10 i'm back in in shape for the challenges yet to come and get my one hour world record leave some room for improvement i'd say there's also a 24 hour world record in a cycle writing i'd like to go for that one too you can sit on the cycle for a long time you just need to practise. yana 10 on bag and decide she's practiced enough for one day in trade says so to a gentle stroll into the sunset. in this digital age we would expect that most anna mae. are done on the computer but some artists prefer methods that stand the test of time such as stop motion animation this technique of filming characters in movement has been around for a couple of decades and it is a popular way of entertaining the masses well i caught up with one stop motion

director in paris who showed me more. this is american actor leonardo dicaprio in a way you've never seen him before in stop motion animation action. this is the work of french director victor who makes animation films and adds in his paris studio. i really like stop motion animation because it's something very times you go again you can touch it you really feel what you are doing i mean with your hands. and those so i can to draw and i'm going to choose. we do wanted to make stop motion and i think this is the best way to make it a mission. bigger has been creating stop motion animation for 13 years he taught himself how to do it after stunning film in the czech capital prague that

missionary mission is a very long process you put the puppets in the position you make. you take a picture you make it as a movement you take a picture and so try to redo original movie you have in. this 5 2nd clip took 2 hours to make. his animations cover a wide range of schemes including this film featuring a 3 d. superhero. the other clips are simple loops made for fun for instagram. this animation highlights actor tom cruise's stunts from his movie mission impossible. and victor's bear often makes

other popular appearances on social media. but it isn't just for fun the artist or . and his money with animated ads for big international companies. green years ago i decided to. put on my work on instagram and to publish. loops every weeks. it meets a lot of success it was very unexpected but now i have more than 300000 followers. and i get a lot of commission directly via instagram. picture tries to find a sense of humor in his every day surroundings this is where he gathers ideas the challenge lies in bringing the ideas back to the studio and turning them into mini work smart the finished product isn't always what he expects when it's done i'm

very happy to look at it from my frame because while i was in the mating i was focused on what i was doing so sometimes i didn't notice i did so move was a move. after this time i keep surprising myself. and victor continues to surprise his fans as well with his unique and unusual classic form of animated photography. and with that we come to the end of the show but don't forget to log on to our website for this week's draw as always from me and the rest of the crew here in berlin thanks for tuning in and.
