Coming up. The type of fast chinese style how the beloved varian beer fest is celebrated in the city of qingdao and how an architect from south to row brings modern architecture into the mountains. As a kid you often have all sorts of weird and wonderful fantasies that parents usually tell you achievable but whether its flying around in a bath tub or making a hovercraft out of a dinghy the socalled real life guys have built it and shared their inventions online the 20 year old german twins phillip and Johannes Macon Becca have gone in a massive following on you tube with almost 1000000 subscribers so theyve actually been able to turn their crazy hobby into a full time job we went to see what else theyve got in the works. Philip macon baca is stopping by to pick up a few bread rolls at the bakery. And. d says the homemade flying past is just one of about 20 was wacky inventions by the hip to twins who call themselves the real life guys this time 22 year old philip in your hundreds making back i want to pit a childrens paddle cart against a compact car 1st came out a motor on to the cart as always its all to do with yourself you know going weve never had any training along these lines weve taught ourselves everything we know from you tube tutorials or google that our father helped out a bit 1st converting bicycles and stuff. There workshop is actually your parents garage near frankfurt to fix the pedal card so it can carry the weight of an adult the brothers with extra steel frame the motor is battery powered. The problem was that an immense amount of current flows through here so the controller exploded on us it took us ages to find a motor and controller that are actually made for that much current. I just hope it doesnt go out on us again when we tested. The twins began posting their d. I. Y. Inventor videos on you tube in 2016. Now they have the support of sponsors for most of their projects ideally the real life guys would like to motivate others to get active. Nowadays many people just sit in front of their computers and never do anything outside i think doing something yourself away from the computer is still a 1000 times better than experiencing it virtually. Their you tube channel now has over 940000 subscribers and. For both of them to make a living from it even quicker engineering studies they prefer the practical side of things. Designing and building a motorized 360. 00 degree rocking chair for aged kids. We took it to a skate park once and wrote it down the ramps that was pretty spectacular we really almost got sick doing that. I. Thought. This contraption also raised quite a few eyebrows and this is our submarine its the best known invention but also the most dangerous thing weve ever built. Heres a hole where lots of water comes in i try to hold it shut but it doesnt help. That was close. Sometimes we do Dangerous Things but we always try to assess whats too risky and what we can try. I think happened here we had a diver along an oxygen tank inside and a cable hooked on behind so it was pretty well secured. On to the next challenge the pedal cart is now fitted with a 20 horsepower motor and ready to go. Your harness will be racing his brother philip will be driving a 90 horsepower compact car. Were on this newly built road to race against a fabia im really excited but i think ill make it the acceleration on this is really sweet but the top speed not so much we have to get off to a good start. On the method a number of good. Friends often help out they stack up a wall of boxes at the finish line 200 meters down the road. On your mark get set oh. Wow congratulations. How was it what do you think i never believed it would accelerate so fast it was very close the acceleration is fantastic but i couldnt keep up the final speed for long im at 1st it takes off but at the end i realized how much faster i was going it was close. We ought to make it more powerful yeah. These twin inventors arent worried about the. Out of ideas their next plan on flying cars. About to an inventive repurpose saying of a very old and established resource these branches from a willow tree since the stone age they have been used to make baskets among many other things when theres soaked they can be bent into shape quite easily and that inspired a british artist to use them in her cruft have a look at the stunning sculptures of laura ellen bacon. It looks like thousands of twigs only intertwined but this is no natural phenomenon its a sculpture made over willow switches handwoven by laura allen bacon dont let go is the sculptures title the artist created it in coventry central england. If it just helps pay paul see their environment and a different way thats terrific hopefully people are. Maybe just question initially whether its is whether it is a natural form or whether its. Just a level of intrigue is something that i like to bring to an area. The sculpture takes shape from the pour out the words beginning with the 1st loop then laura and bacon ties knots and leaves the willow switches on to it always in paris. The only tools i use really is. On fire. But otherwise its just its just my hands but it is quite a jump for motion and media lots of the work from the shoulders actually he holds the willow quite likely. That you move it through the shoulders as. The artist has been making her sculptures for 20 years now in green areas as installations on buildings. Or inside. She allows viewers to touch them and makes them big enough to walk through an experience 3 dimensionally. Laura ellen bacon grew up in county darbyshire in the east midlands where she still lives and works shes been fascinated with nature and creating spaces since she was a girl. Well i started making things when i was about 11 because i just used to enjoy taking myself outside and. Having them i am good at building a tree house which was the very 1st tree house was built with very thin. Very thin pieces of wood which i was actually as it happens able to weave around myself. She starts every sculpture by soaking the switches in water for a whole week that makes them rubbery. Lorelle and baking discovered them as a material when she was studying art she developed the techniques herself. The willow how long fibers that run all the way from the base 3 to the tip and if you give them a bit of a twists as you burn. The fibers. Give. You. Twist it into the shape. Of her studio she only builds models of the sculptures themselves only take shape at their final location. First shes kept as what she envisions. The work is always designed for a particular place and to do a lot of sketchbook drawing some time in between or jawing the process. I really enjoy working with charcoal this is well and charcoal which is made from the slime along with. The artist adds the final touches before she leaves dont like go at the mercy of its environment. If will be a natural habitat for insects while ever ive been making all of my work i always see there are tiny little spiders that move in 1st of all often then you see little birds that come and they feed off the insects so its a bit of a cycle its really great actually when you feel that its made a home. A creature are and imo. Its a home for creatures and a vision from a dream laura alan bacon wants to bring humans and nature together with each of her creations. Now thats finally get to the reason why im dressed like this today its october 1st time in munich once again around 6000000 people travel to the bavarian state capital every year to drink in the culture im just course the beer box there are actually copycat festivals all over the world and weve been travelling around to show you the most unique takes on october fest.

This is the 10th time for it sends out working the chinese a tobar fest so far its the highlight of the year your hometown.

Get this has your head about that. Beer is every bit a part of ching does october fest every guest drinks a number just one these are almost as much as patrons of munich but you wont find any german brass music at. The loudspeakers blurr chinese pop you sick on lots of techno. The food is also adopted the chinese tastes the prophecy comes across a little bit sweeter and the grilled chicken is. Been replaced by octopus on a spit. Over 1400. 00 fridays appear from all over the world are offered at the festival but the favorite by far is the local qingdao peter the bodys a piece of german chinese history. Been 1907 the germans occupied the chinese city and developed it into a trading base 6 years after the germania brewery opened the germans themselves may have not been popular in china but their beer certainly was still brewed according to the old purity laws under the name change down. The beer that the core do resemble munichs october fest the lighting visitors from you with the original if you dont like the germans the atmosphere and spirit in germany are great and of course world famous german beer too. But that is what i like most here is the beer on tap from jingo it tastes exactly like kurdish it makes me feel like im in germany even though i mentioned.

City tour on all fours. Got a hobby even. A new hobby cuddling. Happy grumbling funny cap job leaseholder together their power squad burlap the series with carolyn or bite. On facebook dot com slash d. W. Gen x. Now we move up into the mountains and meet a pioneering architect when it comes to the tricky task of building in the alps venit soul is a real expert his ambitious projects of 100 International Acclaim and into n. T. 16 he was named italys architect of the year is designs are truly unique and we had the pleasure of meeting him in his element for a personal tour of his work. The tamils york pass the scene of hard and groundbreaking work more than half a century ago the high all pine road connecting austria and italy was opened here architect very natural knows how extreme conditions can inspire extreme feats especially when those extremes are in nature. In the 2nd year in this magnificent landscape look around and youll see everythings a sculpture and you cant respond to it with architecture all architecture fails so we try to respond with sculpture. Like a great stone slab come to rest charles past museum just saw it from the barren rock a 2500 meters elevation protruding into south to roll from austria its a borderline experience in stone. The feel is the mind the architecture is always communication its there to look at and to bring people closer to the land and make it comprehensible 1st and we have for example when someone walks through this building and looks out from the other side of the view they get a very different view of the landscape here. And if they stand here and turn around in a circle its not at all the same as looking at one perspective through a picture frame so to speak in this way they experience the landscape more intensely. Then a troll regards the mountains the way a movie director might. In fact the south to role native originally wanted to study film directing. He calls himself a minimalist even if the feelings involved are monumental. The story is architecture is emotion pure emotion theres one single idea one single concept to a building and it shapes every last detail is that it. Has designed 6 truck chairs for the tamils youre going experience as. Called along the alpine road. Another of his projects was dedicated in autumn 2018 on the south to raleigh inside the timo Transit Museum it was a revival of a historical building. And we were dealing with an Old Customs Office building from the 1960 s. Thats how it functions and now it functions just as well as a museum but its hard to speak a functioning. Id almost rather say form follows landscape landscape. The architect avoids putting up entirely new structures hes seen as a master of revitalization his work on sigmund scorn casimir built on 0 made his name far beyond south to roll his futuristic concepts have also drawn widespread attention. Completed one of his boldest projects in 2017. He built his own private residence high above where he was born. For this i get a house designing for your own house is different from designing for someone else or for a contractor designing for yourself always means pushing the limits of what youre able to come up with i was thinking on. A wrap around the last facade allows the house to blend in with its surroundings the landscape is the star here not the architect. Than the 9 feet on the one if you make a mistake its your own fault. For someone else you cant experiment with certain things that be a problem. So these are things you can try out on your own house. Is high say they say the craftsmanship suffers on your own house some things never quite get finished and. Thats the case with these holes that are part of the concrete structure. Im sure ill think of something more artistic down the line to make them look better and seal them up and. You know you always see your own mistakes youll never achieve perfection you can always come up with something new and improved things and thats the motivation to one day really become a good architect so thats the dream. In spite of his modesty very natural is trying nothing less than to alter the image of his home country with his architectural ideas. And you can find plenty more on the topic of alpine architecture on our website dot com slash lifestyle including a 360 degree video allows you to explore every angle of bennetts holes.
