And if you can see THIS that mean Ep.1 of the series is out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4myaahni6yjh7ssi=QXwHDdqp-fHf5N3D

[@BenPatrik]

For what it’s worth, out of all the channels I subscribe to, you’ve always brought the most tangible messages to little my iPhone screen. Your past body of work isn’t a fake happiness machine. Some of your videos are my Dandelion Wine. Excited to see what you’ve been up to this summer.

[@minabani1]

WHAAAAT?! I can't believe I chanced upon this video. 100% appreciate this perspective, and giving voice to this mild uneasiness that I think a lot of people feel as they consume media that is beautiful but then essentially leaves them feeling a little depleted. SO GREAT

[@Devsterinator]

Without authenticity, what do we even have? I think this is the best thing you could do.

[@valentinflaten]

Easily my new favourite KZbinr! This is great!

[@bartekmalinowski]

Man “here” and “now” are a thousand percent the most incredible back-to-back two words in ANY language. Can’t wait for this series, seriously. ❤

[@ChristianSchaffer]

Love this idea. Can’t wait to see this series come to life

[@servnava6601]

Dude, don't take this the wrong way. I watch your videos like 5% for the adventure and 90% for the message

[@EricReding7]

You got your motives on lock. Learning from it! Excited for the series (: Will watch five times on five different screens so the mr. algorithm monster pushes harder lol. But on the real I want more and more people seeing your stuff because your leading your audience to a place worth going.

Feeling hugely inspired, excited to watch

[@interpre_ted]

I'm currently riding my bike across the country, and I'm looking into the themes of resilience, hope, and a responsible future, based on inspiration drawn from farmers, community organizers, and and regular folks across America. I appreciate your honesty and thoughtfulness in your approach--thanks for some inspiration!

[@chhhmaris]

Very nice video. It resonates a lot with my own thoughts, each one of us on our own path. "yes, it's beautiful, but so what ? what does it mean, what does it make me feel ? " Anyway, i've watched a few of your videos and i've subscribed to your channel, because i am very much looking forward to see what you want to share next!

[@eddieactualthings]

This summer is gonna be awesome

[@TheCookiemonster0430]

Hey Shaffer! Thank you for inspiring me with this video. My goal in life is to do the same. The appreciation of “here and now”. Through my writing, videos and photographs. I hope to join you alongside you on the journey! I’ll be checking your channel periodically for those 4mins ish videos even if KZbin doesn’t like advertising it. All the best!!!

[@coreyhetrick5006]

Art is the transfer of emotions

[@JeffJensen55]

So true. Paul O’Neill (founder of Trans Siberian Orchestra) once said, “Art must evoke emotion to be considered art.”

[@elliotsanford]

I'm always blown away by your creativity in filmmaking, the thoughtfulness in your message, and the timeliness of your videos. Thanks for the good you put out into the world. And I have to say how impressed I am that you managed to film a 15 minutes long monologue in a single take, eloquently and we'll spoken!

[@CaptainGnarkill]

Respect to the now. Cool video and rad insight

[@tristanrujano]

I don't know where you got it, but you got a lot of goodness in your heart. Thankyou for sharing

[@xgymratx83]

Ooph that Bradbury quote hit hard.

[@matthew.readus]

Heck yesssss! Crushed it again Shaffer! Glad to see you making this series, can't wait to watch them :-). And the way you brought it about with the reading of the book was really genuine and thought provoking!

[@vicwalke3096]

I can say confidently that your channel, and your outlook on life has given me the perspective that I need right now. Slowing down, enjoying the little things, and be open to criticism. Don’t be overly hard on yourself, but learn from your mistakes. Be a person that finds the beauty in what they have, and someone who is enjoyable to be around. That’s what I take away from your sincere and heartwarming content. Please never stop creating, or at least elegantly capturing the world we live in.

[@natpositive]

Yes, please make those videos - I'll be watching for sure 🤩💯🥰

[@ChristinaKey]

great video and looking forward your 3-4 minutes videos! Your work is pure inspiration, thanks so much for all your energy!

[@elmarieobrien7993]

I appreciate the heart that has gone into this project and I'm delighted you shared this video, it gives us the time to actually consider what an honour it is that someone cares so deeply about a message that they will dedicate their time transcribing it into another medium for us to enjoy! ❤

[@caseyatwater6762]

Having watched "Bikes" I can say you've already produced something that means a lot to me, deeply. ♥️🚲💯

[@tanktom19]

After the intro about the book I stopped the video. Got the book on audible. Listened the whole thing, loved it. Then came back to hear what you had to say. So thank you for introducing me to this incredible book. Thank you for the content you make. And good luck in putting together your series. I'll be hear for it, and for what there is to come.

[@matthewhogue67]

Man, you’re the one whose been good to us- keep it up man praying for you

[@watermelon_is_tasty]

Dude, can't wait to see your changes and love the 'here and now' aspect of everything.

[@JC-pk]

This sounds great, really looking forward to the videos

[@ShafferN]

Thank you so much I really hope you like it!!

[@SanMarin0]

I never regret watching one of your videos. They have some high nutritional content.

[@kylelitwack]

I’ll watch it for sure. Your last video actually meant a lot to me. I need to try new things.

[@slso3642]

This is incredible. Thanks for the reminder of the happiness of the present.

[@TuckerPearce]

Excited to see what you bring Shaffer, also stoked you are creating art that inspires you to create.

[@mubikishore]

I feel like i really needed this video shaffer. Thankyou so much. Hope i could meet you someday.

[@JBscripts]

Hey man. More than any other KZbinr your videos make me think about the here and now, so I reckon you're going to absolutely nail this 👌

[@davidglenday]

Stoked to see what you create with this series, Shaffer. I found out about you from dialed. I'm bummed we no longer get cinematic DH content, but watching you and Jake's videos on your channels I can imagine that was creatively limiting for you guys. Excited to see what you create this summer!

[@burgesssam]

Looking forward to the four. and fwiw, the past 6, 7, 8 videos of yours have all been super fulfilling watches

[@NathanielOjcius]

Loved the spot you picked for this video. Cool to see how the shadows changed so much in the same place within just a few minutes. Bravo

[@ShafferN]

Stoked to hear it's appreciated. It took me forever to find that spot so I'm really happy you caught how special that light window is.

[@JaySeidle]

Thank you so much Shaffer - Make YOUR ART!

[@kevinkenell]

I love this. I love being part of your creative journey because you are one of the purest artists I know of this day and day. So keep staying true to yourself and keep letting us into your authentic experiences, it's beautiful. Thank you for sharing! Excited to see these pieces but know also that this video was enough on it's own.

[@tammi_willis]

Your channel has been so impactful for me and I'm super excited to see this upcoming series. I laughed out loud when you asked we watch them if we see them come up, I've watched every single one of your videos to the very end!

[@Havenotats]

God tier monologue

[@Flu-q9s]

Thank you so much for your honesty and sincerity you put in every piece of art you make. I subscribed to your channel because you endowed me with these raw 'un-staged ' and true thoughts & emotions of yours through your videos. So now I'm really curious how it will feel like when you turn off the happiness machine...hehe :)

[@mepaulb]

I LOVE that book! I never hear anyone talking about it. Your content is always something I look forward to watchijg. Always thoughtful and impactful. Just joined the membership!

[@onleee]

dope. algorithm brought me here. new to the channel. but already super stoked for them movies :)

[@yasarheidt]

This is exactly what the world needs the most - Mindfulness and Presence. Love the idea. Pumped for next week!

[@arteriYT]

Extremely excited to see what you came up with Shaffer, you're by far one of the most sincere filmmakers I've ever come across, massive respect to you for putting out content that has heart

[@samuelsantos4438]

You spoilt the whole book bro, i hope i forget😂

[@Namaste8558]

Thanks again! Each one of your videos makes me think a lot about my life and people around. And this is good. Keep going!

[@mellistown]

Can’t wait ! Thank you for creating this kind of content! Made me feel ✨

[@fill_]

gosh I’m excited to see your work. thanks for all the inspiration you transmit. cheers from Paris ❤

[@BeatriceHarrods]

The here and now only seem to make us emotional when they are already part of the past and covered with nostalgia. It has been the drama of my life for as long as I can remember. Thanks for your videos Shaffer, you are my favorite creator on this platform. It's not only a pleasure to watch your cinematic skills, it's also a pleasure to listen to everything you have to say.

[@Die.Trying]

Your videos always make me introspective

[@christianreedcreative]

Super stoked for what’s ahead on your storytelling journey man. Love your work and can’t wait to see this series 💪💪💪

[@BatshevaDueck.]

I really like the idea of a happiness machine, and learning to turn it off. I also really like that title, Dandelion Wine.

[@dianafedoriaka1887]

Looking forward! Thank you for sharing your journey

[@BenPatrik]

Let’s go

[@lukasgarke9933]

To be honest for me at least you have made something great something that brings me joy but while watching I’m aware that it’s never gonna last forever but at the same time when I see that you have uploaded you brought a second sunset to my day and every time I’m very grateful for that

[@mradriiiian]

noooo where's the flying chaiiiir I'm excited for your series :)

[@pauljakeman]

This is going to be great. New subscriber here, so looking forward to catching your journey from now.

[@WestonWoodfin]

Really excited to see these videos come to life. Have a great summer Shaffer! I can't wait to see it.

[@sprucedesignconstruction5256]

You are a legendary artist. Very underrated. Stay that way :)

[@ONE11WN]

My favourite book also. Thanks for deep experience. I'll watch

[@chillydoog]

You're an inspiration. Bless🌻

[@levin1313]

I think it's a great idea. I love to see you turning away from making content that youtube likes and promotes. With that artful motivation you really stand out. I hope that you are also able to earn money from the way that you want to do your videos, because you deserve it. Keep up the unique work.

[@jakoblilje]

Im looking forward to the videos! thank u!

[@MaximilianRoof]

Already hyped about the coming videos.

[@VoxUrania]

Thanks!

[@ShafferN]

Thank you so much 🤘🫶

[@Tangereeeeen]

Love this. Can't wait!

[@JezTune]

Honey come here! Shaffer Nickel uploaded another masterpiece!

[@PebusGalacticus]

Damn I’m glad I watched this.

[@developingtank]

Cool idea. I've been wanting to see people make things with substance that aren't strictly educational. Which is hard to do if you're strictly focused on making a channel that will grow. Props to you for taking the risk to try and make something compelling that might not jive with what KZbin pushes.

[@WasabiNoise]

I gotchu covered, I just subscribed with bell notifications ON

[@JacobthePoshPotato]

I am not a consumer of travel content but as far as I understand it, its wealthy young adults with a cultivated image doing things everyone else can't afford to do. It sounds like you have some genuine spiritual awareness. I'll be interested to see how these stanzas are.

[@thedavidboland]

Excited to see these! ❤

[@marcus_bowling]

Stoked for this man!

[@SogeMoge]

Chapter ending is nuts, so vivid

[@yuliyanikiforets]

Can’t wait to see them!

[@AndrewPaul1]

love it.

[@dharmabum3037]

❤️

[@FullSenderson]

Stoked dude

[@OrangeBrick8]

Phone under towel might be my new default mic.

[@jakefelzien]

So excited for this.

[@tim_marshalll]

Hi, I'm Tim. Tim is Excited!!

[@brandon_krage]

Damn. Film! I just started diving into film myself. Will you do bts for members?

[@brandon_krage]

13:18 and you answered my question 😂

[@domwrinaldi]

SAD BOY SUMMER

[@HackerEXE10101]

Hi

[@lukasgarke9933]

I would love to join your channel membership but I don’t have the option for it on KZbin is it a KZbin membership or a patreon?

[@ShafferN]

KZbin membership! Should be a 'Join' button somewhere on my channel page.

[@eddieactualthings]

RAHHHHHHHHH

[@MudballDon]

:51 miasma is an unpleasant smell. The word I think you’re reaching for is amalgamation- a combination of things.

[@Ford12345]

What happened to the flying chair logo?

[@ShafferN]

I've got plans for the chair. It will be back.

[@RobertSimpson-y8f]

MAKE SURE YOU BRING A GPS TRACKER ON BIKE NIGHT SOMETIMES THEY GET WORKED UP AND LEAVE YOU

[@andrewharris6347]

When you described how the KZbin algorithm hates short form mundane videos hahaha You’re wrong … your videos will do very very well … time will tell of course but it was not the algorithm that presented your videos to us.

[@timroelofs5636]

Hello people

[@stuartb9194]

You'll never achieve your creative goal. None of us do. It's the struggle and journey that makes it worthy. Never stop striving for better.
