Sleepcore: Back to School | educational films and weirdness

Second! All my dreams came true!

I like the Periscope channel for sleeping….this is good too 😎

Pen & Paper 📝

Perfect timing, just got back from my late shift. Thanks, picsandportraits!

The first video is actually quite clever!

Oh cool, another Sleepcore! That's an automatic "Like."

I think I saw the laminar flow film

That is actually probably the most effective and intuitive demonstration of time dilation I've ever seen

That second video is really hypnotic

Am I still at a Grateful Dead show?

Don't do drugs, kids...instead, learn to trip to the zoo!

Your show updating is always a great feeling, I'd love to see a dinosaur specific episode. Thanks for the good work

♥️♥️♥️

i feel like bart simpson trying to learn stuff lol

I love this channel so much! BTW I remember that zoo film from when I was a kid. I think I saw it on 16mm when my teacher was hungover. I'm that old. We still watched educational films on 16mm and used 35mm film strip machines.

That footage in the laminar is amazing! Just think of how that was shot. First of all you need a steady source of smoke. Then you need really bright lighting against a really dark background. Then when you develop the film you have to max out contrast. Not an easy task with film. Done wrong the black doesn't stay black. You can't just overexpose everything because that would just make gray mud. Whoever shot that was a master of an obsolete craft and I respect that.

Seeing that Northern Lights video just reinforces how desperately we need to start archiving VHS tapes. I'm sure it was originally shot on film but this version came from a cassette tape. Ripping VHS and making it look good is really HARD. I know because I've tried.
