“Anybody could’ve done it; many could’ve done it better, but they didn’t.” Is one of my new favorite quotes. It perfectly illustrates what art is as a whole. When you create something like a KZbin video or a song or a painting or whatever it is you create… you are the only person in the world to have made exactly what you made. And despite people saying, “I could have done that…” the simple fact is that they didn’t. And that makes all the difference

Art is created in two steps: first comes the idea, then comes the execution. Anyone can execute an idea, some better than others, but the same can't be said for thinking up an idea. That's all on you, and it's something to take pride in

[@foul-fortune-feline]

@@zeppie_ Ideas are cheap and easy to come by actually. Art is in the execution more than the conceptualization, and is an iterative process where the initial idea has a variable effect on the outcome.

What I'm really getting at is that generative AI doesn't make "art" and the fact we allowed that marketing ploy as a culture is shameful.

[@TheGold1knight]

I don't know anything about metadata but I assume if she did, the original gif would've tracked back to the model. Again though, I don't know anything about how that works so I'm probably completely wrong.

[@nikkiofthevalley]

​​​@@TheGold1knightNo, most likely not. Metadata is just extra stuff bundled in with a file that isn't relevant to the functionality of the file, like a description, a date of creation, or an author. A gif is just a video file, it has nothing to do with what 3D models you can see in it, so it would make no sense to add that to the metadata that you don't even see normally. I do know quite a bit about file structure and programming in general. I've written a lot of stuff over the years. Nothing you would have heard of, though.

[@Sheet_music_eater]

Interestingly, the trumpet is missing the first valve finger ring, which would influence tuning slightly when playing low notes with the third valve, and the pinky finger ring, which is extremely important in supporting the instrument. Here , all of the weight would rest on the middle or ring finger of your left hand, which would influence valve action slightly and make the third valve slide useless, as well as being uncomfortable.

[@karloveliki5373]

damn

[@Varaldar]

Definitely not, it would be a fine trumpet While yes, missing the tuning on the first valve would effect playing the low D especially, there are examples of trumpets without the tuning valve ring on either end. or just one on the third. though these examples tend to be older or custom jobs. i have, however heard of some professional trumpet players who completely ignore the first tuning slide And i for one have played trumpets with missing pinky rings on the top of the main valve. using your left ring finger and right thumb, its easy enough to lift the trumpet when you are doing those low d notes to kick out the valves. and when you aren't doing that you can just wrap your thumb and pointer/middle finger around the whole valve assembly This is ignoring the fact that the trumpet model definitely still has the pinky ring on the main tuning valve. I found senns original tweet and downloaded the converted trumpet file to look at it closer and for one, it still has the ring. And on the topic of the missing first tuning valve ring,, given the very interesting details they got right on it or that are too specific like multiple supports on the main tuning slide, details underneath the third valve, and certain shapes and curves to the trumpet that they just got right like rings on the mouthpiece and some of the subtle shapes and curves of the metal I'm almost certain this was based on a very specific trumpet and not just someone creating a generic trumpet. which would make me think this was not just *a* trumpet but probably a very nice trumpet, maybe custom made. i just simply can not believe that the designer forgot an entire tuning finger ring.

I'd argue the disagreement about "who made skull trumpet" towards the beginning is incorrect, but the difference is pedantic; since the 3D model is a component of the art rather than a subject of the artist, it's more like saying we don't know who made the Mona Lisa because we don't know who made the paint.

Just wanted to comment on the "you could buy the same CDs in the same building" thing: It's not as crazy as it would seem. From our perspective, for the skull trumpet to appear, someone would *have* to have purchased them in that exact year. But that's not really how it worked, Cathy perhaps didn't go to Siggraph (I'm making an assumption here that she did, in fact, attend) with the express idea to create the skull trumpet. If she didn't go, i would say it's still not that weird: someone attended Siggraph, bought many CDs, perhaps uploaded them onto the internet, where Cathy found them. Same website because of the same place of purchase. It's still a cool fact, mind you, but as with so many things, they get created with the tools available to the artist at the time.

The amount of good animations and the high quality in this video would make Cathy so proud, well done sir

[@TheRealLetharos]

Glad to see you're blowing up man. I've watched almost all of your videos and crave more. I'll prolly get shit on for this but Internet Historian is a plagarist and an far-right turd. If these are the type of people you are going to colab with in the future I'll probably, and sadly, unsub. Life is too short to have hateful people be involved with it. Nothing against you, dude.

[@pizzadoofus]

I find it ironic how jeff has a whole segment on how he doesnt want to take credit for something someone else did, yet internet historian has a cameo in this. Also good video btw, the editing was incredibly interesting and pleasing to the eyes.

[@Lamaneus]

I do think that that segment was also inspired by the whole plagiarism narrative that hhbomber guy set up. I do not know if was an unintentional jab to Internet Historian, who literally did the complete opposite of Jeff on this video: Both did a great video, with their own editing style and narration, about a cool story. However, Jeff made it very clear that he is only presenting the story, the ones who actually found everything were other talented people, and fully credits them. IH, instead, seemed to hide the fact that he did not researched the actual story, and insted of crediting the actual journalists that did (and also even wrote it and publish it) he makes it seem that he did everything, while he was in fact, as other have pointed out, ironically "reading something that others did", just as he did on his cameo of this video.

I'm happy Tomska got involved in this project

[@pyrostorm1700]

The production value of this video is fuckin nuts

[@wynoglia]

Some ppl can't appreciate that you're adding value in making these "lost media" vids I hope you don't get too insecure about those criticisms

[@ShadowMewto]

Why is Internet Historian in this video? I mean after the plaigarism and all that. Also I don't know how I missed TomSka's voice but did hear Whang's? Any way this is a great video from a man who is quickly egding his way ever closer towards becoming my favorite creator on the platform.

[@cozygoblin]

Enjoyed the follow up and I'm so glad to see so many great creators taking part in your video! However, I'd reconsider using internet historian in the future what with the whole plagerism thing... Can't wait to see what you do next

[@robercruza]

I have to congratulate the incredible quality of the video, great work Jeff! Just like many others, I found your channel through the prequel to this video , but instantly got hooked on many of your other series (love the SCP and Wikipedia iceberg videos in particular); and it’s truly incredible to see how you’ve honed your craft through the years. And now that you’ve finally been recognised by the algorithm (and gotten a sponsorship, you lucky fella), I seriously can’t wait for all the amazing things that are sure to come from you and your team!

16:54 that unexpected, out of nowhere nightmind voice just threw me for a loop love his channel! great to see him here :D

[@notzan5302]

I'm gonna assume the Internet Historian cameo was planned before the Hbomberguy video but even then yeesh. I feel like its been known what kinda guy he is for a while.

[@kieran_is_me]

The fact he had people call out all the Nazi dogwhistles in his video + the hbomb plagiarism thing and then he just went radio silent is pretty damning. It was a purposeful run away and wait for people to forget situation too, he has a trello board which at the time of the hbomb video releasing had multiple videos being ready to publish, on top of that he said he was gonna have a tie in video on his second channel a few days after when he released a main channel video. In between his main channel video coming out hbomb released his and the Nazi stuff came out and only now has he released that tie in video. It’s so pathetic

[@mirfalltnixein.1]

Tbh even if I had something like this planned and recorded, after the hbomb video I would have just gotten somebody else to read that part, or done it myself.

[@laz7777]

Its probably more so that no one over 13 years old cares.

[@kieran_is_me]

@@laz7777 sorry I forgot the age limit for hating nazis and plagiarism was 13 I take it all back

[@asadmalek6007]

@@laz7777 that's the median age of internet historian viewers. Also, since when was caring about plagiarism a kid thing? Have you seen most kids' school essays? I'm more inclined to think that kids actually dont care about plagiarism and other academic standards.

[@DissonantSynth]

You forgot to credit NightMind aka Nick Nocturne for his voiceover in the video description

[@oshuhua]

Nick is credited at the end of the video.

[@iau]

26:30 I feel all great KZbin content makers go through this phase of taking haters way too seriously. I'd say "just ignore them", but then we would have not gotten this absolutely EPIC montage of his avatar just standing there in old VHS videos. It's SO WELL DONE, like man, even the noise effects go on to of him perfectly. Such a flex. Love you man.

[@dhillaz]

In this case I think it's a direct result of him reading all 6,500 comments on the video. At minimum, I think the average person would curl up into a ball and cry.

[@AdyanHossain_]

its crazy how Tommy Tallarico single-handedly made all these assets blindfolded while on mars, thus winning him twelveteen new Guiness World Records

[@Crossark1]

“I don’t want to take credit for anyone else’s work,” hits a little different when one of your VO segments was done by Internet Historian lmao 😂 still a good sentiment to have and all; just a lil ironic

Was it really him? Could be just an AI voiceover because I dont see any credits in the description. now i dont know if im correct and i dont care if im not, but its a possibilty

[@CapslockGoD]

Featuring the Internet Historian in a video about finding and showing sources is ironic and disappointing. Cathy Jarboe is the exact kind of person IH would steal content from and pass it off as originally his, tossing her memory in to oblivion. Incredibly high quality video otherwise, you are a great story teller and the structure of your videos is amazingly good.

[@sagaevan9641]

featuring internet historian made me sad knowing he is a known unapologetic plagiarist

Yep same here. Apparently he sneaks alt-right stuff into his videos too. There's a pretty damning post on reddit about it

Don't forget hes also a probable nazi and/or white supremacist based on the shit hidden all through in his videos
