8:31 am
what goes into a real scottish haggis and discover how one austrian designer is putting her own mark on vienna's fashion scene. how do you celebrate the 5th anniversary of an iconic concert hall? well, one way is with a futuristic light show. in hamburg, hundreds of illuminated drones bathed the elbow, fell harmony in light to mark the special occasion. the performance breaking waves was the work of the dutch artistic do oh drift. and it took months of careful planning. but a technical glitch ended further performances. however, we were lucky enough to be there for the premier, an aerial light show to mark the l philharmonic 5th birthday. 300 drones rose into the night sky over hamburg for a celestial dance at the premier,
8:32 am
the audience had no idea that the 800000 euro light spectacle would have to be cancelled on the following 3 evenings. due to an alleged attack by other drones. if that's it, less real and existing, dana of collisions meant the whole security concept would have had to be revised it's concept, but there wasn't any time to do that. dr. bob, at the so the authorities had no choice but to cancel out. and it's on that as you break are up. these are flashback the idea for this ambitious project titled breaking waves came from the dutch designer team drift for their creative concept, learning a huge band and ralph. now the considered both the location and architecture of the landmark concert hall for the inspiration for breaking ways was in the, for me, the rooftop of the building. like the relationship of that with the water around it's a, it's is what you can also see in our work is his relationship between the, the nature and tact. breaking waves also means being bolt and doing something new.
8:33 am
it has not been done before to create a moment where we connect to building the frequency of the water, the frequency of music, the frequency of lights, and then the internal frequency of older public. oh, june. then for the same wave length to create a moments of connection, the 2 artists were among the 1st to create works, withdrawn, born lights that imitate the motion of a flock of birds. for example, at the 2018 burning man festival in the black rock desert and nevada, usa and in 2020 in rotterdam, the netherlands it's always very challenging to get juniors and technology to operate and acts as nature. and that is our mission as drift to work with technology to understand nature. it's
8:34 am
mandatory that we feel that the project we feel to work, we don't as hiring to understand it, but it needs to resonate with our natural rhythms. studio drift currently has an exhibition of their work at hamburg, museum of arts and crafts. these kinetic sculptures embody one of the artist, dual was cor themes, the connection between humans and nature. a work titled in 20 steps, recalls the motion of birds in flight and the light installation fragile future 3 makes real dandy lion seed heads shine. back to the l philharmonic. the building a design by stars with architect have song and de milon has swiftly become a landmark of germany's major port city making art here with drones, a challenge, worst case scenarios that we are. for example, we have some radio interference unexpected and then you know, a couple mindful out of out of the air into the water. you never know stuff like
8:35 am
that can happen with this technology. that scenario became a reality even after the sensitive drones had been checked, double checked and carefully positioned before the premier of the aerial light spectacle. some of them crashed. during the dress rehearsal. 15 drones fell into the water, but only 5 during the premier itself was at sabotaged. no further performances of breaking waves were allowed the authorities to recycle. of course, it was a major disappointment when it, oh thank goodness we had one great performance, but we've been expecting thousands of spectators for the next days. this is what we're bob ships, had been chartered that were booked up by the audience. also, people were planning to come from all over europe to experience this artwork. this construct or live. so breaking waves remain and it just a one off, but no less impressive art event.
8:36 am
it's that time of year again, for an international extravaganza of musical acts. i'm talking about the eurovision song contest now this year marks the 66 edition, and we'll see 40 countries compete for the title enabling. now germany has won the competition twice, once in 1982, and again in 2010 and this year it's pending its hopes on the german american singer, my leak harris. we met up with him for a behind the scenes, private performance. so we are these to be the rock stars, g m, and o p. that's my grandad in there for you. he taught me so many things about music. i was a couple different, you know, the thought a know heart, so this thing, eco lashonda. oh is there was a way to go back in whenever he came to visit or we visited him. we would play an instrument or sit down at the piano. yoga that sitting down at the piano is exactly
8:37 am
what malick harris is going to do on may 14th, but in his case, it will be in front of some $200000000.00 tv viewing worldwide. we are. these give me the rock stars. never thought a know why. so this thing he has been forming jimmy's entry for the eurovision song contest final interior in italy of info hope that most of all i'm excited. i love to be on stage and knowing that i'll soon be standing on the biggest stages. i get goosebumps just thinking about it. i'm really, really looking forward to assisting falk. the 24 year old grew up in the town of lance bag unless i could change. growing up in the idyllic bavarian countryside with parents from the u. s. and germany, he taught himself to play the guitar and piano from the back of credit. and just as he plays all the instruments on his tracks, he will be alone on stage to perform his song crafted from the music. critics influenced him since childhood,
8:38 am
a mix of hope folk. ralph couldn't read all the war with all the thoughts all the think in all the parts. so exhausted, always brought up a sound like johnson god them account the law somebody can about it. wow, young guy. he didn't write rooks dos specifically with the eurovision song contest in mind, but friends convinced him to apply for the national preliminary round of r o rockstars is about the good old days, and you go to the tie. it struck me when i was writing that we humans totally tend to only ever recognize good things when they're over as 2nd. and so we always only understand the good old times when they're over when they're finished and we look back on them advisement. and i think we should change that because actually the good old times never end, but we always recognise them too late. gibberish. malick harris released his 1st single in 2018 and immediately caught the attention of staff like james blunt and tom oto, who invited him and told him away in 2020 he achieved what no german musician has
8:39 am
done before him. when his picture was emblazoned on the billboards of new york's times square, malick harris is a musician who takes his stand in political and social matters. be it for black lives matter all women's rights. and he likes the eurovision basic message of diversity and piece of sorry, i can hear us over this peaceful coming together is a beautiful thing and all the more important this year. and i don't know many events or actually, and i can't think of any other event that really manages to bring the whole continent together like this and ya, johnson continental to sensibly. they'll grow, we are these to be the rock stars. the contest is being held under special circumstances this year. in light of the war in ukraine, russia has been excluded from participation. and the book makers, odd, saw, predicting a clear victory for the ukrainian entry. was malik harris was that would be
8:40 am
a welcome message. on the theme, and that's why i think ukraine as the winner this year would be a very nice signs. and i also have to say that i think the song is pretty cool. so i think regardless of the political situation, in my opinion, the song would definitely deserve it and have a need but you know, maybe malick harris is ballard about the good old days is also a content for 1st place. used to be the rock stars. never thought a know this thing finalized or was there was a way to go back in a time now for something to eat. and for that we are headed to scotland for something of an acquired taste to say the least, i guess will haggis contains the innards of a sheep mixed with onion and spices. now it scotlands most famous dish, but to get the real hardest experience, we met up with one man who's dedicated his life to the specialty.
8:41 am
cutting open a hut is, is always a special moment scottish dish of awful minced with oatmeal in spices and cooked in an animal stomach is just as famous as scotlands, rugged countryside with its mountain peaks and lakes. the thing i love, most of a high gast actually is it's for us, it tells you it's an unbelievably flexible food, 1st and foremost. but actually there is no, there is no right or wrong way to dish li rooney. originally, hails from island. he moved to scotland in the 19 ninety's and has been selling haggard through an online shop for 10 years now. in 2019, he started to haggard cooking school on a sheep thumb outside glasgow wasn't a i guess experience. my name is lee, i'm going to take you through the whole story of the miss on the tasting.
8:42 am
traditionally haggis is made which keeps awful, it tends to spoil quickly, so it has to be pre cooked as soon as it's removed from the carcass. hot liver and lungs are mixed with onions. yeah, different texture. liver is quite gamey. heart is very stake like these basic ingredients are put through a meat grinder. then come the dry ingredients. oatmeal. so hit salt and pepper and mason mace used to be the cheapest spice because it was the porman spice it was at off kosky was an outer husk of nutmeg. so and we also had our own secret ingredient which has garm asylum like every hi gus maker. in the country, they put girl twist on lots hours. it's not curried. it is just to give somebody to
8:43 am
to, to make sure the mixture doesn't get i. it's blended well and cooked in the broth, from the in it. that helps to develop the typical spicy flavor. this mix is then stuffed into the clean stomach. it simply is a bag. it's a natural clean bag, stuff it into and you tie it off and then you cook of in the stomach serves only as a cooking bag and is not meant to beaten. this method can be traced back to ancient times. in scotland, it used to be made with deer in it to day beef and she bother known what happened in the hands of old was that they would actually kill beast as a group than they would butchered on the spot. butchering on the spot is essential for a couple of things. one is actually the bees are really heavy, hard to carry out. so you actually need to, to, to actually share the load. but,
8:44 am
but the 2nd thing is, is that you remove the awful from the beast to stop the, at the awful or the contents of the stomach painting, the prime cuts the meat. it was scotlands national poet, robert burns, who propagated the cult of haggard as part of this simple life. his owed to a ha guess is often recited at the annual burns night in january. the haggis has even become the stuff of legends. you can't go to scotland and not come across a story about haggis, whether it's a matter of fact, people will try to convince you of all sorts of things. and you go to some of the galleries in scotland, that's a picture that we got from a kelvin grove, gary, which is when a man galleries was gone. that's a high school to guess. what is true is that the haggis elite today is not from the little beasties in them and those who won't eat any kind of meat can always prepare
8:45 am
a vegetarian or even reagan, the in of haggard ah, hagi says ready to serve in about an hour and a half traditionally it's eaten together with potato and turn it mash was the say the proof of the pudding is in the eating here is our hi guess. really, really nice combination. nice smell coming over as well. so traditionally or is i talking on pizza, nachos or scallops? hockey's will taste the most often take in its homeland, in beautiful scotland. ah, yes, it does taste quite good there. all right, visiting the austrian capital vienna is like taking a step back in time with it's broke architecture and 18th century coffeehouses. and if you look closely enough in some quarters, you'll also find fashion that reflects these time periods designer susanna
8:46 am
brozowski creates outfits that are a throw back to another era. in, according to her, her viennese chic collection will never go out of style. ah, clothes that reflect the spirit of a city the outfits these be, and these women are wearing gibbon nod of the traditional styles of the metropolis on the dan, you reimagined for the future the in these chic. that's what austrian fashion designer, susana be sub sky calls. her collections for the beautiful viennese woman. british come me on a v. i can't live without vienna and vienna demons my fashion. you just have to think a little bit about whether you are a beautiful b, unease. woman. no nodding, mom. i wish there are very small trade when you become very attractive very quickly . mm hm. a little more elegance and little more domina america. not
8:47 am
a more great enough in me. we work on these little details on it's actually quite quick to do this. this did a good fit. in her vienna's studio, the designer constantly experiments with those details. she combines the most diverse items and forms of clothing doesn't shy away from cliches and crosses borders to develop an independent style for the austrian capital riffles, looking at steadily trying to achieve what we want with styling had so guessed putting on a hat immediately turns and look into something completely different. ah. that's how you get this viennese chum. oh, really nice. she finished combed the telic dish bit. so the far my this is deconstructed lace used to be in rice. you'll pick the black and white look combined with the lace is typically the uneasy without a slightly playful. always contrast it with something darker. ah,
8:48 am
items that are often decades old are given a new life in the fashion designers dresses. she found the fabric for this skirt, for example, at a flea market as well. hm. either. unless used to be a tablecloth, as with how everything is recycled too hard because sustainability has never been a goal in itself. but for 30 years i've been reusing materials. give, are we trying to go for an image that works beyond the mainstream stream? so i like to ignore the international trends, can like, it's like profession, slower sister. hello. i'm showing things today that i made 30 years ago. i figure out, and that's how you know, that style, not fashion from kind of fashion comes and goes along style these days, didn't work it ah, ah, for 3 decades, she had set the tone in the world of fashion with her style at a fashion show in vienna, she presents her recently published book, which traces her career as
8:49 am
a fashion designer. susana be sub sky was all ready involved with traditional costumes, while studying fashion design. toxin palm was the name of one of her 1st collections in which she playfully developed traditional austrian clothing for i have tried to bring the language of garments that existed in the country closer to the people in a revised way live up to shows that can also be a different approach to traditional costume off that he's not just yielding and later who is an agenda, but that there are more interesting perspectives in the background. nowadays, she also designs costumes for the vienna state opera and puts up textiles sculptures and the city center. she's received a lot of praise for her commitment to giving vienna it's fashion identity, because if you look around everything as a copy, a copy of paris of london,
8:50 am
nothing independent. he goes. and susana is the only one who really stands out on her own paper. and these are man, she is a visionary, but always true to her in style. and for i think he's a role model for what i see is the current direct fashion. it's identity. sustainable fashion with strong regional ties we've got if you didn't meet that much, just a few good things so you should buy more local things in general. yeah, he was the beautiful, the unease woman. what is she wearing that sandwich with? we provide an image that really engages with the city because a lot of via needs chic, a timeless style that never seems to go out of fashion. and finally, when it comes to surfing, we tend to think of sun, sandy beaches and surfers in shorts, riding big waves. but in the old waters,
