[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thank you for sharing your talent and passion with us and the world!

[@hoodheisenberg]

Beautiful. Always stepping their game up. Triple murrine pick up, collar, blow in. And a gorgeous half round to top it off. Impressive.

[@opitaylorredgirl11]

I can't stay away from this channel

[@caseyworlton6962]

I've added seeing this live at the museum to my life goals.

[@anayah8521]

That is a beautiful piece! I recently started watching glass blowing videos...They are so relaxing to me! I would love to see a demo in person! This piece is beautiful! #Kudos

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching!

[@amys3168]

Excellent narration!

[@GCGeekArmy]

This is the best one yet. Thank you for posting.

[@frankbai4694]

Nice commentary, great commentator that knows what is happening.

[@diegovillalobos5364]

So inspiring! If I was the owner of this vase I would not know where to put it. All that hard work makes it priceless!!!

[@monicagilvin8843]

This is amazing

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching, Monica!

[@MrJohnblaine]

Beautiful bowl

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching, John!

[@radodrill]

At 1:22:38 the narrator is incorrect in saying that glass is always a solid. When it is molten in the crucible it is in fact a liquid and during the hot-working process it is in the transition between liquid and solid phases. In fact, amorphous and non-crystalline are redundant terms as amorphous means without form/shape i.e. lacking structure/order characteristic of a crystal.

[@alphahawk2542]

I dont understand... but damn the products you creates are so beautiful... i enjoy every video from this channel... so mismerising and help calm my mind

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching!

[@hotmoon226]

Really a piece of art!

[@MultiPotatoGirl]

amazing!!

[@andydunne2517]

why was it half made already? . would have been nice from the start

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Great question, Michael and Josie started working at 5pm because they knew that it would take that long to create the piece, however this video is only a recording of the live-stream that ran from 6-7:30pm. Thanks for this feedback and for watching!

[@RavenRose88]

how do u have a camera in your oven?! I'm new here. amazing work!!!

[@corningmuseumofglass]

The camera behind the furnace is protected by a sheet of fused silica glass and cooled with a stream of air. Fused silica is a high-temperature/low-expansion glass developed by Corning Glass Works (now Corning Incorporated) in 1930. It is made up only of chemically rendered silica and melts at 3800°F, or 2000°C, and can easily withstand the 2300°F heat of the furnace. Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching!

[@poelgeestglass]

Do you use Didymium type filters in front of the camera objective? Or other kind of filters? This also applies to the other cams you use to film the works.. Are they commercially available?

[@sotnos90]

I was going to ask abote the same :p

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Hi, here's the answer from Jason, our Lead Digital Media Technician: For the Hot Glass Shops we are not using any filters on any of the cameras. We adjust for brightness but are not filtering the image at all. We have only recently started filtering one of the two cameras used for the Flameworking Demonstration. This is for the live demonstration at the Museum only, not for any streaming currently. There was an event last year all about scientific glassblowing and we did employ didymium filters on one or two of the cameras used. They were 6" square sheets mounted onto the camera. We don't have the exact source for the ones that we used, but yes they are available commercially and here is a site with some information - www.phillips-safety.com/glassworking/glassworking-eyewear/shop-by-frame-style/shields-and-visors.html

[@poelgeestglass]

Corning Museum of Glass Thanks for the reply, very informative. The event last year all about scientific glassblowing, I unfortunately missed, I hope some is available as videos? My background is scientific glassblowing so I look at glass subjects always with an engineering point of view: all dimensions exact to specs etc.. I might need one of those filters/windows for my own video's, so thanks for the pointer!

[@GCGeekArmy]

If someone wanted to buy a peice like this, how much would it cost?

[@corningmuseumofglass]

There are multiple factors that would weigh into how much a piece costs, and because of CMoG’s non-profit status, we are unable to appraise items (provide value estimates).

[@nippleswing]

couple of thousand probably, there should be some of his work or at least a link to his website on the Corning website.

[@karensaladbar.]

I hope the narrator knows that she is great at what she does! Pay no attention to those negative Nellys!

[@jorgepinoalejandre3939]

hola me encanta el diseño. Cuanto es el costo de estas obras, y quien es el que compra estas obras de arte. Gracias lindo dia.

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Hi Jorge, you can see Josie and Michael's work for sale on their website: www.vetrovero.com/. Thanks for watching!

[@hermanwood1696]

how do you change the color of the glass in the furnace. I heard they recharge the furnace nightly but if you add a diffrent color do you have to talk out all the glass. then the next day add a different color in? or if yoiu want to layer 2 different colors or 3 different colors how is that done with one furnace that has the molten glass.

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Great question - we typically only have clear glass melted in the furnace, and then color is applied in different ways. This video kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2m2nGOjjqmomNU explains how glass can be colored. For example, we can melt a small batch of colored glass in a crucible to be used (seen at 0:30 in the linked video), use a bar of colored glass (1:15), frit is small bits of colored crushed glass that is rolled on to give color (2:13, and also this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2m2nGOjjqmomNU), to get color using the overlay technique you'd drop colored glass over clear (3:50). Thanks for watching!

[@busyhockeymom1100]

Why do they brush the hot glass?

[@corningmuseumofglass]

When they pick up pieces that have been resting, they're often covered in kiln wash, which can get stuck and discolor the piece. The glass is brushed to remove this dust. Thanks for watching!

[@geardragina]

Quisiera comprar una obra maestra como esta

[@ashleydick1924]

Cool

[@caseyworlton6962]

She didn't mention cornings huge role in the amazing spy planes flying super duper fast

[@frankbai4694]

Not the most impressive work, but the most impressive commentary. So jealous those local people got to watch that live

[@OOOHBILLY]

Frank Bai I think you got that backwards... Her commentary is obnoxious

[@DizzyDevil-ms1ni]

this would make a pretty lamp shade.

[@Utopian_Fir]

Since spectrum is going out of business where are you planing to get your clear from? Just curious as I work out of a small shop in Colorado and we're still looking into where we are going to get out clear.

[@corningmuseumofglass]

We use multiple suppliers for both batch and cutlet so we can't comment on that specifically.

[@belacickekl7579]

Wow, I'm pretty sure that at the end there the poor guy who had to put that in the annealing oven was bouncing it up and down in an effort to cool his arms lol. Very nice piece

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching!

[@BlurnGanston]

No foot?

[@vjgrevem]

I love these videos, but I wish you would edit out some of the repetitive time spent reheating the glass in the furnace. I know it's an important part of the process, but it gets old seeing this over and over and over.

[@borderreiver3288]

brilliant.annnoying when the sound keeps coming and going....so you miss what is being said....

[@suse2424]

I don't want to be stuck in an oven all the time 🙁

[@skiboyscuba]

Saweet

[@8656737s]

Corning is one of the most snoby places on earth to live! I can say that because I lived there for years barf! The glass is beautiful though.

[@stormangelus6638]

I'm not trying to be disrespectful to anyone, but the young lady's voice becomes irritating as you keep watching. She never goes quiet for any length of time, and she's talking constantly. There's a gentleman, an older man, who does narration on some of these and his voice is much easier to handle. He also seems to know the value of being quiet at times, letting us, the viewer, simply absorb the process instead of constantly trying to concentrate on what someone's saying. I'm trying to pay attention to her and focus on what's being done, and she's droning non-stop. I think she may have just been nervous? Forgive me, I'm not trying to sound moody or be mean or anything like that, no way! But perhaps the young lady could take a lesson from the older gentleman and learn the value of pausing every so often, allowing the visitors and viewers a chance to focus on what the glass artist is doing. Merely a suggestion! Otherwise, please don't stop doing these broadcasts, they're so informative and I can sit here and literally watch for hours. Thank you for posting these!

[@MsJerkinbabe]

Storm Angelus I agree with you! she should pause a little bit and she was running out of breath.

[@stormangelus6638]

Sofiya Bae Thank you for being understanding! Yes, you said it perfectly - her voice moderation was poor. It was almost as if she had a cold and was trying to talk through it.

[@lalalandhigh]

I understand what you mean, but for me, as someone who doesn't know anything about this, it worked out great because she explained everything there was to explain and it didn't leave me wondering about anything. I enjoy the other videos, but this was much more informative and detailed and it was something I needed.

[@stormangelus6638]

lalalandhigh I can respect your view. And I do understand - but there's times that her voice became very droning and the pitch of her voice was bothersome to me. It's likely a personal thing, as well.

[@freannde]

Pretty sure students watch these. I mean you're just sitting at your computer, can fast forward, etc. These people specifically came out to learn about this process and there is a lot of repetition in this work that can get boring. Also, she does go quiet. She even turns the mic off many times. Guess you didn't really watch it.

[@DesenhosLT]

second

[@raulfernandezg]

Great voice and very nice commentator, but too much talking. let people rest for 2 seconds please!!!!! Great videos though...

[@RICDirector]

Just saw the one gal wearing shorts---bad safety practice, I'd think...!!

first

[@jeffreypick57]

I watch these videos just before I go to bed, as I find it so calming and relaxing. I do have tio say though, after the huge amount of work involved, the finished products are quite ugly. Just looking at it when finished, it is very plain and uninteresting colour wise and you would never know it had the three layers. With all the colours and textures of glass available, its a shame. There is another video of a tall vase with four heads around it - they are ugly and the master put a horrible green glass rim around the top which folded at the lat minute, showing how easily things go wrong even for these artists. It would have been much better removed - the green was horrible with the dull coloured vase.

[@OOOHBILLY]

It's annoying hearing her say 'we' when she isn't even doing anything. I realize it's a group effort, but she isn't doing anything other than talk too much.

[@epiatka]

I understood that as in "we" = "the people who work with glass" (...do it this way to achieve...) - as I suppose if she's commenting she had to do it on her own as well, to truly comprehend what she's explaining?

[@auraglasswerks4900]

Editing stinks

[@hygrometer]

fake glass. Get back to posting REAL glass and ill be happy.
