Day and night. I think its the combination that makes him so popular the standing man is also something balanced and calm about it and a clear design which clears and other traffic like that. 30 years after reunification the im to mention is celebrated as an east german success story. The traffic light men were 1st introduced in east berlin in 1900. Traffic psychologist carl piccolo wanted to design a pedestrian signal that caught peoples attention. Difficult to appeal to children and older people when using abstract pictograms. So i simply tried to translate their clarity into personified symbols. Lifelike and likable in the 1st designs the figure even had fingers on a mouse and karl big losses wife helped when it came to the half. Of the op the mention became recognizable symbols which in the 1980 s. Were used to teach children about road safety on east german t. V. And a friend who can help. After reunification in 1900. Step by step the west german pictograms gradually began to replace the east german complementary. Designer. Had just moved to the newly rina 5 berlin and witnessed the im to mention being replaced. After reunification i spent a lot of time Walking Around the former east berlin i was actually standing here at this intersection when they were changing the lights over there. And i thought id ask the workers there if i could have the old glass lenses. Good id be able to make something with them gradually i had the idea of turning them into lights. Because i may have saved the opposition from extinction because lights caught peoples attention in the former east people mourn the loss of their man. Along with inventor called pick all the colors and successfully fought to keep the. 1970 author mentions were recognized in the road traffic regulations in 20051 of the 1st east german traffic like many west berlin was installed in the famous quarters for. 30 years after german reunification a little better more than just traffic suggests the southwest was on theres Something Special about them they dont get standardized they look as if theres something particular to the capital but if you give the very friendly and project a nice image of our city you dont have them in other cities. For good and it creates a nice atmosphere weve noticed the mood of the it brings bill culture and history to a place such an for guys tradition. The green walking man and the red standing band are now world famous and popular souvenirs for tourists. And internets and among our International Customers its the japanese who like the op mentioned most they love little figures among us the up and mention are a bit like that and theyre crazy about that in japan the east german op ed mentioned are quite well known. Traffic light minutes random massacres and speired other cities 2 years ago feedback and has some installed an elvis pedestrian light the american singer was one station 2 years a soldier. And karl marxs life now shines bright in his birthplace. Some european cities now have traffic lights women. And same sex trafficked like couples. Sometimes assuring theres a subtle way of spreading a message before no one really. Traffic like that look like. Just that they were green or red and resemble a man but no one paid any attention to the design of it now because the east german arpanet become so famous the awareness for traffic like men has changed worldwide on. Most international pedestrians are still feature simplistic pictograms. But maybe other countries will eventually follow these mens lead. The sound of new united berlin was hot and electric in the air also saw the birth of techno the clubs emerged overnight in disused industrial halls and a bend and spaces such as the bull go where im standing now on the former border between east and west berlin today it is the museum of art collectors cabinet. But shortly after you need to see the former air raid shelter was the center of the techno scene d. J. And adrian from west berlin used to play here and experience firsthand how the city became a huge magnet for techno fans. Now an alien is a techno i kind. Of head of a record label born in west berlin german reunification was a defining moment in her life. For me reunification was like an explosion. I got to experience what id always longed full mavic of the wall was gone and i could communicate and live with the people on the other side. Of your live crowd. Really and has performed all over from new york to hong kong for close to 3 decades shes been a berlin techno ambassador. As a teenager she was into hip hop but in the early ninetys she discovered techno. I like techno because it reminded me of berlin of how the wall fell and i walked around hearing the noise of the streets for me the sound of the city i was taken to. After the wall fell rivers took over empty buildings near the former border in clubs like trends or young people from the east and west celebrated techno as the new sound of freedom trees were open in 1009 101. 00 and launched the careers of deejays like paul fein diet from the former east germany. Ellen alien soon began spinning records here too and other top clubs being a d. J. Wasnt enough so she hosted a radio show in berlin and founded a music label i was right down trying to delegate the work i have my graphic artist and my booking agency i have someone helping take care of my label i delegate stuff to friends and people i can rely on. To. Today berlin is a cosmopolitan city but while it was divided alien found the atmosphere oppressive that changed when the wall fell in 1989 and germany reunified a year later. Fast we had to hit him with not impressed me very much emotionally was finding out how different east and west berlin is where. You know and also to live through the phase where we became one. And. For years clubs like they are kind and watergate have cemented berlins reputation as. Techno capital but when the coronavirus pandemic struck last march the party was suddenly over. It was a nightmare for d. J. s like alien who make their living travelling around the world and bringing people together to dance this summer she spent a lot of time traveling on berlins waterways trying to process the new normal. It was awful it was absolutely horrible because i was ready to go on to a full tour. So it was a big shock i must admit that i cried a lot. Of go by him. But instead of sinking into depression she took action in june she released her 9th studio album an hour and began streaming live d. J. Sets like here from berlin t. V. Tower. Berlins techno scene isnt giving up either its returning to its improvised roots after german reunification and like then finding empty buildings the club reveres it almost has opened on the grounds of a former brewery covers wear masks and socially distance cameras are not permitted so when i had to look for the festival opening up a club in the corona era in 2020 is very brave of dahl that the owner here. It gives us a huge energy. And gives us something to show off to the world in berlin a club is opening up in 2020. 5 homes like this i think. And of course ellen illian is performing here as well.

This is news live from berlin u. S. President donald trump speaks from the hospital where hes being treated for covert 19. I came here wasnt feeling so well i feel much better now were working hard to get me all the way that they have to be back but he says he still faces a critical next few days in his fight against the coronavirus well get the latest from our correspondent in washington also coming up. Germany celebrates 30 years of reunification president Frank Loesser steinmeyer hail to the last 3 decades as a triumph of democracy over oppression but he warns against populism and extremism. Im michael okwu thanks for joining us u. S. President donald trump has spoken out for the 1st time from the hospital where hes being treated for covert 19 he would least a video message on twitter adding that the coming days will be the real test of his fight against the krona virus earlier the president stopped or also said he was doing well but followup question shifted to focus on the timing of trumps infection and diagnosis the world doing his best to reassure the United States i came here was in feeling so well i feel much better now working hard all the way back and i have to be back. Because we still have to make America Great again weve. But we still have steps to go. Back i think ill be back soon. Finishing up the campaign the way we started we are things happening that look like were miracles but admitted the coming days will be crucial so i just want to tell you theyre starting to feel good. I dont know over the next few days i guess thats the real test so will be seeing what happens over the next couple of days. Earlier on saturday the president s medical team had also given in update explaining their decision to transfer him to a Military Hospital and reported yesterday consultation with this group i recommended we bring the president up to walter reed the precautionary measure measure. To provide state of the art monitoring and any care that he may need. Just 72 hours into the diagnosis now the 1st week in a particular day 7 to 10 of the most critical in determining the likely course of this illness but that clarification caused confusion 72 hours into the diagnosis would mean he was confirmed infected on wednesday. Trump only announced that he and the 1st lady had contracted covert 19 early on friday the president s doctor sean conley later issued a statement correcting himself. Following an event at the white house rose garden last week a number of prominent republicans have also tested positive. Including 2 senators from the Judiciary Committee who are due to consider trumps new nomination for the supreme court. Vote trump is reportedly on the mend his chief of staff says the next 2 days will be critical in the president s fight against covert 19. Joining us now is our correspondent in washington greetings carolina we just heard the president say hes doing well did he also defend his decision to continue containing without a mask. Well in this video of the 2nd one he released from the hospital his 70 trying to kill the room or as we heard yesterday saying that his Health Condition was quite serious we dont know though if this is going to change anything on his position towards the measures to stop the infections in the states like wearing a mask or keeping keeping a social distance we have to consider that the mask has almost become a political symbol in this country trump has treaties ice the mask and even made fun of joe biden for example during the president ial debate because he always wears a mask is he now going to change that position openly perhaps after having been hospitalized for several days due to his 1000 infection so we dont know as you know more people in the president s inner circle have tested positive in recent days how certain are we that that rose garden event was in fact a super spreader moment within the president s team. This is not being called here that ceremony last week in the white house was the place where several people got infected but we do know that at least 6 people including 2 public and senators with 10 at that event. Are being tested have been tested positive for it and 19 so it is highly likely that this might have been the event where they contracted the infection also we have seen in the images that we got that they are not wearing a mask and they are not keeping social distancing so this could be the spreader event yes how are these infections affecting the Trump Campaign team a month now from the president ial election. The impact on the campaign is huge specially for republicans to cancel his Campaign Events for this week and in the video he published he says he thinks he is coming back very soon and that he wants to continue with his campaign to make America Great again as for now he has stopped the campaign and all the events by this campaign by the way said the kind of a joe biden will get tested more frequently and will now continue in Person Campaign his results of the tests are going to be disclosed every day. Carolyn a few more in washington force thank you so much carolina. Since donald trump announced his diagnosis on twitter late on thursday misinformation has been spreading on social media about the president some are even questioning if trump is actually ill who can we trust when it comes to the president s health reporter. Joins me now to talk more about this where do we begin to lay i mean to tell us about the theories that are spreading on line you know 1st of all there is of course no evidence that trump was lying about his diagnosis is now being treated in hospital for covert 19 and as with any Conspiracy Theory it would have taken a lot of people to be in on it if it were if if their theories with what truth it is fair to question a statement that comes from donald trump Washington Post at their latest how they said he had made 20000 false or misleading claims in 1220000. Might get to 25. 00 by the end of by the end of october. And so when this news broke on wednesday social media really exploded with with theories on both extremes of the political spectrum to be honest on the on the left you have the documentary Filmmaker Michael Moore for example he suggests that trump was faking this to somehow has postponed the election this was saying that he was faking it to get out of more doing more Television Debates of the chaotic debate earlier in the week obvious again said it was a distraction from his tax scandal on the far right conspiracy theorists there suggest that this was part of his grand plan to take down the washington elite somehow the details of that are a bit murky were not going to get into those details but there are plenty of theories so given the on line theories that are written raising up all over the place and the fact that throughout history administrations have been shall we say careful about disclosing all medical details about the president can we. I believe the information thats coming out of the White House Well yes and no take the statement yesterday from his chief from his personal physician he did not on the question about oxygen and whether the president at any time had been on oxygen he didnt oncet those questions clearly the white house the white house has also not been forthcoming when it comes to the timeline you know that hope picks the aide who 1st had symptoms she had symptoms for 24 hours before the news broke and when the news of her positive test broke that did not come from the white house that came from Bloomberg News we also know that the president went to a fundraising event in new jersey off he knew that hope pics had tested positive and as you said in the past this white house especially has not been very forthcoming when it comes to the disclosing medical records there was a incidents a few years back of a letter written by a chumps forma personal physician saying that he was that good health turned out that had been dictated by trump himself and there was also an unplanned hospital visit to the same hospital in november last year to which we still have no explanation was it so important that we get accurate information. The health of the u. S. President is very important its the biggest his the leader of the biggest economy in the world the markets were rattled this this week when news of his coded broke if he is incapacitated say if he isnt oxygen if he is on a respirator thats a matter of National Security especially if you imagine how some Decision Making process is happening in this white house sometimes the president will make decisions and his people below him might not even know about them so you you could see a breakdown of communication. Its also of course an issue for Peoples Health it was a. This week saying that donald trump himself was the biggest the biggest source of misinformation about the corona virus in the us and a lot of people gets most if not all of the news from social media so were dealing really here with differing realities differing versions of the story the physician yesterday said his. Condition was improving the chief of staff said that his condition was very concerning and the president himself said we would see the severity of the illness in the next few days so who do you believe well whoever you believe i have a feeling that this discussion will continue long after donald trump gets out of the hospital. Thank you so much for that lets turn now to some of the other stories making news around the world at this hour hundreds of demonstrators have taken to the streets of chiles capital santiago to protest against inequality and Police Brutality the demonstration was called in response to a video which appeared to show a Police Officer pushing a young demonstrator off a bridge during clashes on friday.
