I Am Sitting In A Video Room 1000

[Vinomadd]

That sound will haunt my dreams.

[ted3681]

EAR RAPE

[it549]

So you're saying we invade china?

[magnificentjosh]

Alvin Lucier, using analogue tape, ended up producing a beautiful, reverberant ringing noise. Digital encoding produces this...

[jlsrobinson]

this guy has ALOT of time on his hands

[ingersollturok]

I have a filter in Adobe that can do this in like 5 seconds.

[Ligermorph]

Must. Kill. John Lennon.

[kill40001000]

It actually took him a year to do this :O

[Squidpus]

I wonder if the result would be the same if filmed in 1080p with YouTube's new options.

[ZachHale8]

Awesome! What a new way to make a homage to Alvin Lucier!

[sitwosaints]

Completely wonderful.

[djscottdog1]

in soviet Russia video up load you 1000s times

[abi17kiss]

1061 Videos! WTF? do u have a job?

[Zeraziel]

@abi17kiss Why is that every time someone sees (but fails to fully comprehend) the end result of what another person put many hours into doing, they need to insinuate or blatantly accuse the person of "no life" or lacking any "serious" commitment?

[blazendz]

this made me very thirsty

[BroOpGaming]

This sounds like Spermswamp.

[Anestheticum]

I want this in 720P.

[That0neHippie]

crystal clear HD

[stupidaable]

Why don't you continue to download and re-upload this video until the rest of your life...

[scratchneck]

so fucking exciting

[colbakbr]

Someone shoulld use it in a grindcore song.

[ShadicoTheHedgehog]

NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS NESS

[LichKingpro]

@xSteigix Dude idiot

[MrJamo11j]

please continue. I would love to see and hear the possibilities at 1500 or maybe even 2000, if you have the time.

[TeChNiQuEVx6]

lol fish language

[kargaroc386]

atleast this has to be the smallest video on youtube, in terms of file size

[AlecMier]

He should go over 9000!

[WolfgangNS]

This should be autotuned.

[Coinwalker]

In soviet russia if you upload 1000 times a video, the video gets high quality

[GreenTeaGoku]

This is what will happen to the rick roll if posted enough

[inu5450]

@GreenTeaGoku Thing is no one reuploads rick roll, posting it doesn't lose the quality either

[GTModified]

sounds a bit like a prawn from district nine...

[samuelmorrison]

thumbs up to wasting 1000 hours of your life

[Multiman96]

-_- Why is this in 360p and the others was in 480?

[Qkumber1]

proof that youtube screws up audio

[blueluny]

the inportant thing to note is that they will all be here soon and intend to take mankind prisoner.

[Spongeb0bSqu4repants]

this is kinda scary

[rogeliogonzalezmarti]

Me quedo con el resultado estético más que con la lección técnica. ¡Muy buen homenaje! felicidades.

[babyfoxgrant]

go for a million

[theSuperMetroid]

@babyfoxgrant Yeah, or at least 10,000. I want to see how long it takes before the sound is nothing but static and the picture is just completely black with a white smudge in the center

[QFuzzle]

@babyfoxgrant That would be a mess.

[paindoll]

Shit that creeped me the fuck out

[YouNoob04]

It scared the crap out of me!

[srpollisimo90]

is he talking in vagina language????

[amaloveable]

@srpollisimo90 yes. and LOL!!!

[amaloveable]

@srpollisimo90 YES O.O

[Saelleris]

You guys clearly don't understand the historical significance of this project. Do a little homework on Alvin Lucier. Maybe learn a thing or two. As to you, canzona, grats on having the time and patience this must have required!

[Megamichael214]

I AM SITTING IN A VIDEO ROOM WATCHING THIS DUMB ASS WAIST MY TIME.

[TheVoltaTrio]

@Megamichael214 "waste"

[Zentj]

@Megamichael214 waste* get it right...

[Megamichael214]

@Zentj Oh yeah cause in order for me to post a comment in YouTube, i need to have a perfect grammar, even though i wasn't English, right? Learn how to NOT be a Grammar-Nazi, and a dumb-ass.

[P4INKiller]

@Megamichael214

Learn how not to be a douche.

[Megamichael214]

@P4INKiller Defending my self makes me a douche? Shit, i learn new things everyday.

[DisturbedThePast]

i did the same thing

[MagnusRush]

Featured*

[MagnusRush]

Why was this feautured?

[alfanzzo100]

this is annoying

[SilynJaguar]

You realize that codecs and compression algorithms are written by humans, right? Still human. And the same effect can be made by taking the original and reencoding it at 1/1000th the original bitrate.

Fail is you sir.

[ArtificialSouls]

@SilynJaguar "Still human" FAIL

The process used is human, and the person depicted is human, but human qualities within the image and audio are diminished by a human process.

In addition, simply diminishing the bit-rate would increase the degree of separation, to it's source reference, which was the work of Alvin Lucier.

By simply diminishing the bit-rate, you would not be imitating his work, and thus would make it less relevant.

[Redkiller66]

wow. congrats on being lame. This proves what? that converting a video 1000 times is going to destroy the quality? No shit sherlock....

[InsaneEditing]

Lol is it just me or does the vod pic look like a cencored dick lol

[bellaandedward1610]

Why did that make me want to throw up??those noises.....

[Dalek22comments]

Basically, the guy makes a video, he downloads it (mp4) then he re-uploads it again,

then does the same thing.

[theTGproductionz]

If you read the description-this is a vlog he did and ripped of of YouTube and processed it over and over again until it was literally COMPLETELY digitalized. Nothing human remained.

[mswoonc]

Idk why... But I just want to knock this mofo out for wasting my time.

[darklord809]

I really dont get it lol .

[Brendanbj101]

i guess for a lot of people downloading a video and re-uploading is too hard for them to understand

[dmb1995ta]

homo

[MultiSTeV3n]

@ForceRecon198 agreed! It shows how amazing technology may be

[michaelclarkII]

did some pink blob just tell me to kill myself?

[TheSkate4food]

[CantTopMyStyle]

[Fuduwahluz]

THE HIVE CLUSTER IS UNDER ATTACK!

[MostafaFathi1]

should i try reverse sound playback or slow it down to understand the secret behind that video ? :D

[thebuzdar]

@MostafaFathi1 what he did is get a normal video of him talking and upload it and then download it from youtube 1000 times and now it looks like this... thumbs up so people understand

[rysliv]

horrible quality

[Darkstar7300]

@rysliv READ. WHAT. HE. WAS. DOING. YOU GENIUS.

[amandarosefelix]

@rysliv thats the point.

[stephanesca]

If you're stumbling upon this video from the features page, it might not make a lot of sense. Read the description first. It is not an entertainment piece, but an art piece. The artist is exploring how digital media distorts reality and humanity. He is using what's known as the photocopy effect wherein each successive copy of a copy degrades in quality.

[wildchris6979]

Iam sorry but I don,t Speak Star Wars

[BbyCKx]

@wildchris6979 LMAO

[3456thedavid]

[xStarfrostx]

Hahhahahaha wow I'm sorry but some of you ppl are just so dang retarded! The dude who made this video said it was an experiment with digital noise! Too big a word for yah? Why'd u click on the video? Didn't like how the video looked? Again, why'd u click on the video? Hahaha I swear some ppl on here are just soooo freaking dumb....

[xkruulx]

[UlaughYouLose]

@Blockygraphics it seems, these days, that is true for the majority of YouTube.

[OMGOMGOMGOMGxD]

Ok i don't want to go through all 1000 videos 1 click @ a time so can you make a playlist. K THX & GL

This reminds me of the Predator.

[hope4acureforcancer]

[gamergirl132]

Thanks for ruining my Old Spice watching ;n;

[TheFrUiTyBuBbLeS]

...

[Despoilah]

Ill try to upload it somewhere, or even as a vid. Problem is that its over 2-3 gigs in size and im afraid a heavily compression will destroy whats left of it.

[canzona]

@Despoilah Wow, how long is the audio? Or is it at a very high sample rate?

[canzona]

@Despoilah Wow, the last one is amazing! It sounds like an entire crowd of people all simultaneously crying. I'm willing to bet the WAVs are way more amazing than these mp3s. But you should still put something up on YouTube. Thanks for sharing this with me!

[Danny7930]

@canzona Whats the point of this project? besides it kind of looks cool :P

[canzona]

@Danny7930 I just wanted to see what would happen.

[Relemsis]
