neil postal on the green. and to me it's clear remains true. the solutions are out there. join me for a deep dive into the green transformation for me. for the pounds. quid. down the covered 19 pandemic. deciding how close to get someone to stay away. can be a question of life or death. is a real and they communicated subconsciously through body language.

considering how. well the coronavirus is rob does about most meaningful ways to connect with each other it's a little sad it can be stressful to having to take so much into consideration every time you leave the perceived safety of your own 4 walls. the coronavirus says turn the world upside down how has it affected us since the lock down in my researches from the university of basel have been using cameras to document how we adapt to daily life how we behave and how we act and moved during the pandemic. i must constantly decide with my body which is and and these the micro decisions the bodily movements should i sit here 5 centimeters federal way so these are the things that we're recording the. give you all from him and.

since the pandemic began our body language has gained new meaning every day behavior is suddenly risky must be renegotiated or even dropped a lot of nonverbal communication is going on between us all the time. and sure here is a good example of how they are placing themselves naturally in a way in which they can also take their distance and these and micro decisions he will make constantly. that can stand where studying the activity of paper distancing themselves how they really do it moment by moment and one second it times like smoke from. a few days later the experts analyze their findings at the university of bottle they discuss and try to interpret every dialogue every action and every tiny bodily movement like one scene

at a time image by image. the ones who were. the findings from the 100 hours of video material should one day help to better understand humans are social beings the coronavirus pandemic is almost a stroke of luck for this unique research project. yet. we've hardly had 2 waves now so what's really going to happen will there be a 3rd or 4th wave constants are they were tains that will remain in the long run. that's what's interesting about human interactions. they've already discovered one thing in basel we constantly adapt our interactions to a given risk situation and we do it quickly that's a finding that could also benefit coronavirus strategies understanding how people really tick. devise rules and measures that people will actually follow.

and let's talk more in depth with the rents of $1.00 whom he saw in that report as covert 19 fundamentally change the way humans interact with each other. yes of course it seems to have changed. things now in order to understand these changes i think we have to think about social interaction as even though it might seem a bit counting sometimes as having its own organization it's all new order and what could be done. is the arrival of a lot of external norms. for prevention for early earth saves. and one of the motives of the change but those are the problematic change is that sometimes these measures my in through with external normatively in the end dodgin was organic order. and this is why i'm fascinating

that we are the present i mean. what about cultural differences. in the germans or get way too close to me often invading my personal space. enjoying having older space because of the pandemic. yeah. sure immigration is is a big big things and put her. on certain these he made things easy for certain kinds of groups rather than others if you think the example of greetings that we have. in my college and pushing things are usually par. but if you look at. those functions aspects of things you will see that each culture has the same problems to solve we are going to receive process when we commission and.

organizing the entry interaction you know who are unique and when there are the kind of basic principles that. in a way make make possible. with formatting which may make made possible might be subject to huge and so if you will if you will you'll be rather in your culture or happy for months fulfillments way you. can close these times you might have more difficulties then in that culture where i have to go for months i'm not school. at the end of the day it's a connection where i have severe in the impacts of social distancing human connection. yes it is what the science is we are pretty critical of the notion of social distancing because what we are witnessing with will be that is a physical distance which is not what it is and not. you know as

of course a social aspect is a cultural aspect but we have to think about the fact that. is variable in so how to live their activities that are actually this them to all or which new unity and the problem with cold really is that we have these measures. to meet. these terms which are perfectly implementable for 7 activities much less for others and a decision how to implement these measures. but this is a let people must think locally and the generally interesting but. normal dynamics people are prompted with some sort of this is going to be. telling some of this him to say. well of course you are going to say their response is going into different directions why does that mean there's

been i've heard that tory experience for us are scientists but also isn't about what is fundamental in sociality we want so we want to come back to our normal sociality and you know what do those i do where in these people before and probably does make. conscious of but they're also all the things that have emerged during. the match the laboratory for experimenting under 90 forms of social life and some of the most creative we. thank you very much. thank you. time to answer more of your questions now over to our science correspondent eric williams. how with a pandemic and. only when the entire wilkins vaccinated. when

it comes to predicting the future really your guess is as good as mine but if i did have to hazard one i'd say there are a couple of scenarios to choose from the 1st and least likely in my opinion is that will somehow manage to begin coordinating efforts on a hitherto unheard of scale to stymie new outbreaks before they can spend out of control like they have already in country after country any return to anything like a prepared demick normal at least on a global scale will require speeding up and extending vaccine drives in every corner of the planet now and not later and of course the virus would have to play along by not mutating too quickly or or dramatically so soon imaginable scenario one that

a lot of epidemiologists think isn't going to happen. more likely they say is that vaccines won't stop at 19 transmission completely but they will slow it in many places anough to manage the virus like we manage other diseases just think hiv aids or or measles in that scenario sars could be too would become endemic and possibly seasonal like the flu and would have to be held in check by active measures like like regular vaccine updates and as yet undeveloped medications people would continue to be infected by it and continue to die from it but but over time as large fractions of populations acquire some degree of immunity for at least a while through infection or vaccines a lot of experts think the disease could grow less deadly at least at the societal

scale so instead of thinking about when the pandemic will end to me it now makes more sense to formulate this question as when we get back to something approaching prepare demick normalcy and i think that could happen by the end of the summer in some places like here in europe and many others barring new developments i expect it to take several years that's my guess. finally the games get underway in tokyo in a couple months and organizers have been trying out for the newest additions skateboarding athletes met at. sports pock to show off their tricks no spectators strict hygiene measures though to keep covert at ballet concerns about hosting the big event continue to grow $350000.00 people signed

and later walter became a household name depicted in comic books that once flew off the shelves fast forward to present day sorry i vote where one bookstore owner is intent on rekindling walter's memory and spreading his own passion for comics. evil nazis and heroic partisans every child growing up in the former yugoslavia knew the story while to defend sarajevo as well as the film it was a comic book that had millions of fans around the globe. comics were hugely popular in the former yugoslavia and me a shadow which hopes to preserve this tradition has been a comic i'm through z. asked since childhood he founded design publishing company this courtyard in sarajevo is home to coffee comics as well as a shop which sells comic books and graphic novels there really is more of a refuge. with the dallas fort worth i do think anyone in bosnia today would

enter the comic trade purely as a business venture workable through you need to love comics or the children can bring in a comic they've already read and exchange it for another she had it and nothing from this but he says that's not important he's too busy trying to salvage whatever he can his collection of comics is now larger than the one held by boston as national library. in the 1960 s. seventy's and eighty's with everyone in yugoslavia read comics the break of yugoslavia also spelled the end of this comic culture since then sales have been sluggish back in the early seventy's a comic issue could easily sell 800000 copies. today young artists like and it's cheap have

a tough time living from their work chief says the market has been decimated even though the internet is creating new opportunities he says what's missing are publishers like challenge and his publishing company. colleagues or for our audience. is doing with a graphic comics so with the publishing house on the comic book store is a good step towards creating what bosnia lacks a gothic comics has brought out a new edition of wall to defend sarajevo the story has also been republished in german and chinese in china the tale of walter the resistance fighter who took on the nazis is well known chinese tourists visiting sarajevo flocked to his memorial there though until the end the nazis never knew who walter was you know who water is tell me his name at once. be sure to take i will show him to you. you see this city. this is falter.

in sarajevo walter is once again a symbol of resistance now against the political corruption that paralyzed bosnia for decades. within those who were the more people are sick of having to just survive on their own. and walter's message to fight for others to fight for others or their lives and all of us work with the other 3 goals of those to make something of our lives here in sarajevo and in bosnia i mean she held each his optimism in the face of all odds is reminiscent of walter's message never give up even in times of great resistance. as someone else who is staying strong in the face of adversity is french d.j. i tell you who when the phones stopped ringing during knocked down the electronic music maestro picked up his decks and carried them up

a mountain he's now released this video filmed in the middle of the swiss alps it 3000 need to see it could be the world's highest. now this building looks like a nuclear power station that's according to britain's prince charles in fact it's london's national theatre it's a classic example of brutal ism a no frills architectural style popular in the 1960 s. and seventy's often called bleak and institutional many such buildings are at risk of demolition including this form of the boa tree in berlin now thousands of people have signed a petition to rescue it from the bulldozer as the part of a growing movement to preserve the city's architectural history. the architecture style known as brutal ism can be described as monumental colorless

and inhuman these edifices tend to polarize to some their eyesores while others a growing number of architecture aficionados the world over are rediscovering bertil is a. brutalist most of us i find burchill isn't so shaznay thing because it's so antagonistic and controversial on the one hand the buildings of written off as ugly and many of them do take some getting used to. but once you look behind the scenes and begin to understand why these structures look the way they do it's a whole architectural cosmos opens up if. you take a course most. of this is 17 story apartment block in berlin was designed in 1057. by french swiss architect. the man who coined the term bird was an architect or historian and photographer felix tar car sees that as one of the city's principal

examples of the style. the building with its 530 apartments has been called a machine for living. museum was unable to carry out his plans for the interior but this one apartment was later remodeled to reproduce the architect original idea was based on his color theories. graham said color the same importance as the floor plan and layout hendrix pedler and bought the apartment and most of its furnishings. we were not going to change the colors of his apartment never it's like a house of cards everything can just fall down if you if searching too much. also left unchanged since the late 1970 s. the checked embassy building in downtown berlin the architects even designed the lamps tables and armchairs. recently a british publisher put out a series of city guides focusing on brutalist felix torker curated the berlin

edition increasing support for brutal ism on social media put a hold on some demolition plans including at this former animal testing lab nicknamed the mouse bunker in the 1960 s. when these buildings were planned a great number of structures from the mid to late 19th century were torn down buildings that we think of fabulous today and a horrified at how much beautiful old architecture has been lost at the time many of them were only around 60 years old exactly the same ages these buildings are today so we have to think about whether or not we want to repeat the same mistakes . all the while new concrete buildings are going up in the neo brutalist style this berlin apartment building called the. no book blog has already won several awards. it's unfinished look was meant not only to be stylish but to reduce construction

costs and to keep rents down. more than 6 decades after it hit the scene brutalist architecture still polarizes and fascinates people today. they say just 15 minutes spent petting a dog can lower your blood pressure pets can also keep you company and she you up as many people have found out during the pandemic down sent the demoing fashionable companions soaring when human commissions dried up for 1000000000 based photographer he found himself and he projects. as the saying goes dogs are man's background and these dog owners regardless of gender loving their canine and the family seems to be willing to help. but that's not heard promises here

locked doesn't have a dog and never has for this. one especially i've got to admit that i'm a little bit scared of dogs the bigger and more boisterous they are the more they scare me so it's a challenge for me now but it's always good to learn something new in life. timing is an art that thomas really has the market for this project. not all dogs love to be photographed. bribery is the main ploy to get the perfect picture. in comparison to human beings are the easier subject. to do that this type of the congress meeting dog and owner and i'm. going sometimes the similarity between dogs and their owners is quite amazing when you see them next to each other. the similarity. is resemble the dog so why is a bird. but i haven't really seen that. with the corona
