this week, some comedy david from a writer and columnist for the atlantic magazine. he says the stakes were and still are frighteningly home conflict own in 60 minutes on d. w. d. w's crime fighters are back a little bit more africa. most successful radio drama series continues bring them all episodes are available online. and of course you can share and discuss on d, w, africa's facebook page and other social media platforms, crime fighters, tune in now. ah no show you. i will flag. i've been thinking about the idea of flying cities for a long time. some of our planets circles the sun i. we don't have it as humanity and all planetary speed. yes. photo and are traveling at

a speed of 76000 miles an hour of planet idea. the idea of flying cities isn't really that utopian from a cosmic perspective. we. i said if i told an astronaut about it, my, he tell me what we're already flying or. ready even in thomas, sarah centers are wax, explore the pressing issues of our times, reflecting on how we can live more sustainable lives and use our results his most sparingly. he's also interested in alternative means of travel and how aunts can inspire us to think outside the box. elizabeth? no, i didn't go i know with oh my god,

thank you. the argent tinian performance and installation artist takes an interdisciplinary approach to his work and regularly cooperates with scientific research institutions. like when he launched this experiment in bolivia to test out the possibilities of emissions free air travel. ah, this is sarah santo's, berlin studio, where he plans and prepares his many projects ah, ah. santa santa has always been fascinated by the interplay between arts and science. he studied art and architecture in argentina and then attended frankfurt state or schuler art school on a scholarship. he also took part in a nasa research project. he's become an internationally sought after artist, in part because his work ponders some of the most urgent questions we face to day,

such as, how can we shape our future and how much responsibility to we carry for our actions . your role can handle myself in a 4 way who is tomas at a signal. you might as well ask me about the sum of different parks go home or what makes some on the course on they are or you that will, that if i have the feeling we, as humans, crew tendency ourselves as extraordinary political as somehow superior to other species. ala how, but in reality, we struggle to afford real relationships with others. macy's, what was busy, but real relationships founded on solidarity fully that are essential to our progress. but it is one micro hinden santa center began experimenting with the idea of floating cities in 2011. that year he showcased his cloud cities project at berlin's hamburger bonham. if gallery this project likes him any other question, the way we live as

a society and envisioned new forms of human co existence and community. his berlin show featured a network of cloud like olds that visitors could climb into. what would it be night to inhabit such a floating city to live and work san ah, what masses to sorry, seno is that we realised everything is interconnected that way. just parts of a greater home. mm. busy synthesis good. does he have the feeling that all the attention afforded to him all his success and popularity goes hand in hand with a certain responsibility with a view of comic thou wilt. basil they caught little apollo to pensacola postalia. i

think responsibility can mean confronting certain problems had that americans. yeah . or they, we faced pressing issues like global warming for and then equality, common content. i mean, don't know what other cola this, what luxury, but also the extinction of certain species and people dying on this planet both. oh, my north, i'm in florida, delaware, but it's okay. i don't think it is enough to seek individual answers to these issues. my son of a new allowed follow that we need global, all encompassing answers and we're classes, he will pull up. that's why i'm always looking to forge new alliances. adopt new perspectives and take new steps that can bring about the changes our planet desperately needs set up where you are. look, i'm nuclear literate, and with a bill in autumn, 2018 santa saint o showcased his on an installation at paris is played to tokyo, contemporary art venue. it focused on the importance of ad and how we as a species, a polluting this title element,

ah, ah, santa seno set up $76.00, spider webs to make the add more tangible as it were. spiders have inhabited the us the hundreds of millions of years and ease air to spin that into cup webs. your kristen would have been going brother way less brighter webs. we're a starting point, the lad onion. i have been fascinated by them for a very long time. dr. is that they're connected to the spiders, but they are a part of their body to not. and you know, lighter can only since a small bug is near because of the vibrations it sends through the web, the engine replace and data without the webinar. but it could neither feel nor see it's trained in all the way i get. what is it on? most spiders that make webs are blind from a different super. by creating a web, they're essentially creating their own sensory ability. villa had ruffling,

allowing them to feel the world and other species around them with the installation translated, the vibrations of spite, as movements into audio signals, creating a kind of a rack, nit symphony. we mean here, tiny dust particles attract and also transformed into sounds. the more people pass through this room, the more the particles world around the spiders register these movements and sounds, creating a form of interaction between them and the visitors ah,

and proceed go. alex is another quality law in because it started with my obsession with spider weapon as him. so we set out making all kinds of them mackie, nat corner let technique. he also invented a machine together with the technical university of darmstadt game. they brought my idea to life at obviously length the basically the machine uses laser signal to weave intricate, well it for the article to read it, the less will complete us. oh, i think they went out. i mean, if we were something that got many academics interested and again we have some difficult but until then, lucas and nobody had managed to create such a detailed map of a spiderweb and was aligned to really my team. and so i got abided by the massachusetts institute of technology and max planck institute, or get into studies spiderweb williams and their surroundings. we to better understand these green trip if it hadn't been entered than that if amanda selina ah

to throw a hook on angie's ledge along with spiders and spider webs in recent years, they paid an important role in his are told us was exactly fascinated him about no doubt, and when did this fascination start that on? yes. or to call me to throw a hat on? is it what will jose you work with spiders? i always say no. if alice spiders work with me, you know, it has, they've been here for more than 200000000 years. and so we can only learn from them, not the other way around. out, my work is almost anthropological. an attempt to reconstruct today's image of what it means to be humanly this collection of bacteria and other inhabitants. because i'm trying to redefine our relationship to those with whom we share the planet and all together with natural scientists. santa seno has set up his own lab in his studio in berlin to study spiders and bad behavior. ah, i don't look at me, which i sent me personally clock in day. what strikes me at my studio is that many

people still suffer from a rack and a phobia with a terrible fear of spiders and are in a toyota oh, south wind. okay. look, i, we tend to, when people visit the studio and realize that it's largely populated by spiders and spiderweb has always say, many of them grow uncomfortable for these comfort. ah ah, him wish to know? sorry if we kept puppies or kittens here, people would say, oh, what? pretty kitty. you don't, they don't usually do that when they see spiders. to minister yet, spiders are very different. the less, you must aim, not only to differentiate between the various species, but to see what unites spider and what separates them from one another luck with a mother to discover the co relationships and synergies between species. he could buy something when he come into one of the spider nets have

a special symbolism because you see all these connections. these threads which go from one side to the other, ninette valley another route. so if you ask me, what fascinates me most about spiders, it's the special beauty of their web. no, as you're some lawyer, we have mm . in these installations which take up entire rims, santa senate continually plays with the patterns and shapes found in his spite as website visitors can even enter into a huge web and experienced the weld from a spider's perspective which i la soda. no, nope, nope. inside. okay, with many of my work supers, i'm not thinking about the speculator toyota. i'm also not thinking about the outside world, which makes us feel foreign or different little, okay, with these works. i'm trying to create something all encompassing for mental visit . so that's why i like to work with really large surfaces. anderson if you move around on one side of this,

well the people on the other side move to the local because when i move around visual, i cause vibrations which influenced the space journey learned. i me and the spiders respond well rather for maybe this will let us find a new way of communicating with one another. he knew it, my work is about creating these kinds of connection, a single product. okay. it's not just about seeing what's around us. thank tech centers. luckily, i'm interested in interactions and things on which are on a variety of levels and with different groups of people who bought again to know what can we learn about ourselves from working with other species? and does this change the way we deal with one another? sarah, senate doesn't aim to definitively own, says such questions. rather he uses his arts to get people thinking in his work algorithms, visitors enter an interactive network. they see and feel the vibrations triggered by themselves and others

think when he employees, many different disciplines in his arts, astrophysics, form, engineering, biology. he even explores musical composition with the help of spiders. so why is this kind of interdisciplinary work so important to handle forecast? any port thank that brought up you think that connects young discipline area code. one of these though, we put it out. i told him because it keeps opening up new world. so when you only look at a phenomenon from one perspective, you're missing out on all the other perspective, hilton, me as, as the other ways of syncing reality or thinking about it. and so it seems to me that these days, we often forget about these other realities. to prompt people, to change that perspective and encourage dialogue. santa center always presents the results of his exchanges with natural scientists and expense from a variety of disciplines. he wants aunt lovers to be open to and

engage with a broad spectrum of ideas. ah one that's captured santos and his imagination is humans long held fascination with flying. ready in frenulum aladdin. in our time, the dream of flight has turned into a nightmare uniform. that's due to the way we fly. does this look at that over the pattern over flying is a total disaster because we're reliant on fossil fuels, on lithium, so on batteries or other kinds of raw materials. expect to reach dr. pony out there, extraction and dangers, the survival of many species. eager about us again. barbara for we need to find new ways of making the notion of flight a possible dream. a go read north lake, lynn willow, communal police. when you for

years santa seno has been experimenting with flying arrow solis sculptures that a variety of locations around the globe. these free floating sculptures on lifted only by the sun and carried only by the wind and enable flight without the consumption of fossil fuel. a radical concept this is how thomas said, i say no, started to become interested in the possibilities of a new age. one he calls heiress, seen the aerial iraq. ah listen, think they must have propelled and i believe i think the term that best describes the era we're living in now is the capitalist. i don't see nicole, the age of ramp and capitalism bananas. they will hold the arrow seen as an epoch

of hope them in an age which is radically different from the cabin holocene. hey, good. i think i'm into the thin die. ah, capital zeno and toy locals are everything that changes our habits, but not the climate claim helps to usher in a new era rouge. one, we call the arrow seen a proceed. got an aerial age. it was a little an era in which we demonstrate awareness of one another and of the environment and work together to invent new rituals and new customs to create this iraq or to read and i book a whole door, se steender. tomas said, i say nose era, seen project requires a radical re think on all parts. dwindling natural resources, rising emissions, climate change on the extinction of many species or destroying the very basis of all life on us. but era seen places are not human beings at the center of things

protecting, not polluting. the element that keeps us alive is its main goal. a way of making amends to mother ref. while that may sound like a utopian ideal, santa seno and his team have already proven that some of their ideas work in the real world. in argentina, the iris seen foundation team has already set several world records. among them, the 1st mand fully so left free flight with a hot air balloon. it reached a height of 272 meters covered 1.7 kilometers, and was ab owen for over an hour. the team's next goal is to be able to transport several people at once, powered only by the sun's ultraviolet race and fulfilling the dream of emissions free air travel. conversely, london is ethical to when these sculptures rise up, the 1st thing people say is that how can that being it's mesmerizing magical moment

episode, but suddenly the sculpture turned and there's something on it that was written by another person who put his gaze on me. it's like an onion, the more layers you peel away but is the more questions arise as to how these things appear. it sort of always tackle with colin deena gomez, we've just got back from argentina, winnable. we were working a lot with indigenous communities there. and when we funded this, they have taken a clear stand against the colonial processes endangering their environment. our initial thought is that there is lithium mining going on in their territory and she lay argentina. she lay and bolivia bordered the area where this so called white gold as being mind. he said, okay, but i thought i don't. and for every ton of lithium, we know that 2000000 leaders of water are required. deslot condos, there are $71.00 kilos of lithium and one tesla wellness. again, this is an area already plagued by drought december 2nd. but i really don't know if

we start to excavate lithium to satisfy the consumerism of today's capitalistic society. and they go every one who lives on the edge of the sellers or the salt flat market will die allotted. he, along with the animals and the vegetation there. in the communities who live there will be forced to leave. it was a uniform i escal wasn't but in all, that's why we're asking, how can we change our habits? look so that it doesn't lead to climate change last october is erotic toilet us. what kind of habits and rhythms does the planet desperately require to regain its equilibrium, but it looks like he would go out of the pathetic ok. we can't wait for every one to agree golf tournament. air travel will have to be very different in the future. in waterloo, adolescent lighting for lighting time. okay. hello, cool. india. santa santos project has become a global movement artists, scientists, designers, and activists have joined the our scene foundation that he set up the

community has grown up. it's one that comes together and engages in regular dialog ah link and up is that again which will momento, can i like the thought of a community that works like a collective i. so i'm walking dell, although that's why we have established 2 foundations. filia, one of them is called iraqi filiano less and you selected. unlike arachne fopes, it's members or friends to spiders and their webs could have been it is a non profit organization that is working to save certain ecosystems steamers. and it is a kind of community of friends that also exists beyond the studio tomasetti santa latoya. what is this community is researching? how we can ensure the long term existence of certain ecosystems and life forms know that only those, hey look,

we'll say no to the 2nd community that has sprung up out of the studio is called aero seen. but i mean this to consists of people working in the studio as well as an ever growing impassioned community of people outside who are pursuing it as a hobby. they are people who believe that we can change our way of life and not just by changing individual mobility, but by founding a movement for change. pelk, i'm you santa center and the era scene community have developed an explorer in collaboration with mit and the red cross. it enables anyone to build a floating explorer sculpture and calculate its flight path and flight duration via e. so software each flight gathers data about air quality, temperature, humidity, and pressure, which is fed back into the software, giving us more and more information about our planets. and what said a center calls, it's highways in the sky. like the jet stream for instance. ever seen is open

invitation to every one who is fighting for a future free of fossil fuels and dreaming of a new kind of boundless, borderless mobility. sat a center slogan is from home, a sap eons to whom i flew, tanis. oh, glad to go for me, aren't always means and aren't going dialogue or in exchange going. and i, for example, the art involving the spiders and spiders, was won't, i don't know if al, yeah, we have to form new alliances and new ways of working to understand our world killer. hey, the categories that exists to day tend to separate us from one another rather than to unite us senior wortha capacity. though it seems to me that art can help us in this process for what they think art has this ability, this generosity, or this innocence is that the people who say no in art, you continue to search with child like innocence and noise. and it seems to me that that is exactly what can help us to see the world with other eyes reflecting that

a set of fennel is continually venturing out with childlike curiosity into the world limits he can better understand our planet and our cosmos. donnelly. oh, oh lord, given his project event horizon has taken him to the unique salt flats. in bolivia, the artist is fascinated by the way the horizon quite literally dissolves. with in the early hours of the morning, a very thin layer of water vapor hovers above the surface of the flats. and for just a few moments, the horizon looks as if it has been erased. the surface of the earth forms a giant mira of the universe that surrounds us. it's

a fascinating meditative phenomenon. you can even see reflections of light emitted by the lodge magdalana clouds and neighboring universe 163000 light years away. oh, that is actually she to reception about the future. is it central significance xyz land from and go? what plans does he have for his own food? check your plan to stay in bottles. samples, venue look, benefit wood flooring. was able to a 100 full co. any mas, my plans for the future are to continue working as we have done recently. soda lay fan at the same time to increasingly question the logistics of the art industry, the transport of artwork and my own mobility position, who to for and to consider alternative ways for us artists to be present as well. if, if, if we become conscious of our planet and its atmosphere, then we should also start to show solidarity with all of the others on board,

the co passengers in our world. blended. we need to consider how we can continue this journey together and we'll to who to theater. ah, me ah, mass santa santo's work is opening our eyes to what's going on here. and now it's also an invitation to engage with burning questions about of teacher here for dora went abroad. doyle, ben? oh, can i hope that the balloon that lifted off with 2 passengers and who he province will soon be able to carry 3 or 4 people out? i know almost, i will see him. and if we can already fly at an altitude of up to 272 meters for almost 2 hours. but then i hope that in the future you'll be able to travel to interview me from colombia, for example, without your having to take a plane that is that the lesson, i don't know, but the journey is the destination, the journey we will often lose our way on this journey happen,

but we will continue on with enthusiasm and hope according to sac lee. it bonanza. ah ah ah ah ah ah, with
