i, she's got issues with all say, well, great a ah ah ah, hundreds of drones take to this guys for a spectacular light show in germany's port city of hamburg. we'll find out what the occasion was in a moment. everyone welcome to another edition of your own max with me, your host. megan lee. here's a look at what else we've got coming up in today's show. find out from an expert
12:31 pm
what goes into a real scottish haggis and discover how one austrian designer is putting her own mark on vienna's fashion. see how 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,
12:32 pm
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 thought, think this real and existing dana of collisions meant the whole security concept would have had to be revised because it's concept law. 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 under as we break ours up says our 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 route. 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, 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 ways also means being bolt and doing something new. it
12:33 pm
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 moment of connection. ah, the 2 artists were among the 1st to create works, withdrawn born lights that imitate the motion of a flock of birds.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,
12:34 pm
it's mandatory that we feel the project. we feel the work. we don't know how to understand it, but it need 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 core themes, the connection between humans and nature. a work titled and 20 steps recalls the motion of birds in flight and the light installation fragile future 3 makes real dandy lie and seed head shine. back to the philharmonic. the building designed by stars with architect have song and melon had swiftly become a landmark of germany's major port city making art here with drones. a challenge. worst case scenario is that we for example, we have some radio interference unexpected and then you know, a couple of might fall out of out of the air into the water. you never know stuff
12:35 pm
like 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 sabotaged. no further performances of breaking waves were allowed to watch and we simply sac all of course that was a major disappointment or the oh thank goodness we had one great performance. but we've been expecting thousands of spectators for the next day. ships had been chartered that were booked up by the audience. all people were planning to come from all over europe to experience this hard work and the constructor label. so breaking waves remain just a one off, but no less impressive art event. it's
12:36 pm
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 as 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, an o p, that's my grandaddy museum. he taught me so many things about music. i was to come before you never thought a no har rico lashonda was 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
12:37 pm
what malick harris is going to do on may 14th. but in his case, it will be in front of some 200000000 tv viewing worldwide. well 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 justice . he plays all the instruments on his tracks. he will be alone on stage to perform his song crafted from the music critic influenced him since childhood and mix of
12:38 pm
hope, folk rock and ran all the war with all the thoughts all the think in all the parts . so exhausted, always brought up a sound like down some god damn 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 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. malik harris released his 1st single in 2018 and immediately caught the attention of stars like james blunt and tom oto, who invited him and told him what in 2020 he achieved what no german musician has
12:39 pm
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 about 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, sensibly look, well 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 ukranian entry on the woman. oh malik harris was that would
12:40 pm
be a welcome message or 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, this may be malick harris's ballard, about the good old days is also a content. the 1st place we used to be the rock stars, never thought a know with always, there was a way to go back in st. louis, coming out for something to eat. and for that, we are headed to scotland for something of an acquired taste to say the least. haggis 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 to experience, we met up with one man whose dedicated his life to the specialty.
12:41 pm
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 these 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 a 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 mis on the taste.
12:42 pm
traditionally haggis is made with sheep's 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. different texture liver is quite gay. me. 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. spicy was at off, kosky was an outer husk of nutmeg. so and we also add our own secret ingredient, which is 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 some body to,
12:43 pm
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 up in the stomach serves only as a cooking bag and is not meant beaten. this method can be traced back to ancient times in scotland, but used to be made with deer in it. to day beef and sheep bother known what happened in the hunt. so 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 be sir. really heavy heart carry out. so you
12:44 pm
actually need to, to, to actually share the load. but, but the 2nd thing is, is that you remove the awful from the beast to stop the, at the awful of 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 bends 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 one of the main galleries was gone. that's a high gasket august. what is true is that the haggis elite today is not from the little beasties now and those he won't eat any kind of meat, can always prepare
12:45 pm
a vegetarian or even reagan the 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 as the se. the proof of the pudding is in the eating. here is our hi gus. really, really nice combination. nice smell coming over as well. so traditionally or is i talking on pizza, nachos or scallops? how gus will taste the most often take in its homeland, in beautiful scotland? ah, if 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
12:46 pm

12:47 pm
a more great smell in me, and we work on these little details on it's actually quite quick to do this. given her in her piano 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 just 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 select the shit. so the far, my guess 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 by items that
12:48 pm
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. i mean, unless used to be a table health, this is 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 out. we tried to go for an image that works beyond the mainstream stream, so i like to ignore the international trends cuz it's like professions, lower sister. 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 wrong style these days, didn't work it. oh oh, 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
