I adore these. Even tho I'm younger and wasn't around when these videos came out, they give me an other worldly feeling of nostalgia. TY!

[@RaverOperator]

Me too! And since I've gotten into music production I listen to these videos and find a huge array of brilliant sound bytes to sample! Sleepy TV, interesting, and musical properties to the uploads make this one of my favourite channels on KZbin!! Do you also find it a scary insight into information advertiser's and governments do their best not to mention these days?

[@UserHandle0001]

@@RaverOperator yes! It's a little creepy and almost sinister bits of info that make me stop and think. That stuff didn't disappear, it's adapted into today's world and things that we have no idea about. I'll have to try sleepyTV, thanks!

[@RaverOperator]

@@UserHandle0001 :). Sleepy TV was a reference to this channel and how I feel sometimes watching it! I'm not sending you on a rabbit hole looking for something that doesn't to my knowledge exist! But glad you get the same feeling sometimes with the retro (but still current info!)

[@UserHandle0001]

@@RaverOperator hahahaha 😂 I figured! I actually looked it up and there's 2 channels w that name but not even in English! I was like oh duh, she was talking about pics n portraits lmao. I do still need recommendations for good channels tho, my feed is pretty awful lately lol

[@RaverOperator]

@@UserHandle0001 😂😂😂 Shrouded Hand, Explore With Us, Thoughty2, Charles Veitch - all good channels to check out!

[@ryanmorrison3699]

I don’t know what it is, but there’s something about these sleepcore/retro-futurism videos that creeps the hell out of me.

[@ferociousgumby]

If there is one thing I love more than badly-damaged film, it`s warped soundtracks.

[@rujo2k]

Ah yes, I remember the trusty old classroom projector... and let's not forget getting to watch that beat-up old footage in reverse after said educational film was over😁Good times!

[@MaGiKRat420]

Lots of wow and flutter, and the film is probably warped bad

[@ferociousgumby]

@@MaGiKRat420 I love those sudden jerks mid-sentence where you literally lose several words. Sounds spliced, ,almost.

[@ferociousgumby]

@@rujo2k Watching people eat. . .. oh boy! And am I the only one who LOVES film leaders, that magical countdown? I've done whole videos on those.

[@isaiahromero9861]

You should check out Boards of Canada, thats basically their whole aesthetic. Music Has The Right To Children is a great album by them

[@elinderfler9358]

"A civilization overwhelmed by its own technology"......Nailed it

[@harmanx.]

I almost thought the segment with Jennifer Grey was a documentary, because she's such a good actress and seemed genuine (and I didn't recognize her at first). But then they started interviewing the love interest guy, who wasn't quite so natural an actor, and it gave it away.

[@Lethgar_Smith]

I had the exact same reaction.

[@ZacharyCusanelli]

The documentary at the beginning is great! 😊

[@MarcusAgrippa390]

The DCX segment seriously reminds me of SpaceX Starship. The testing and bellyflop for reentry are spot on.

[@kiwitrainguy]

That thing failed once when they went to land it and one of its legs didn't deploy. It just fell over and burst in to flames.

[@Datan0de]

​@@kiwitrainguyOn the next try it worked perfectly, though. The cancellation of the Delta Clipper program still hurts.

[@neightneight1280]

Amazingly curated compilations... I'm up half the night, drawing on iPad / Wacom for work and fun - these vids help make it so Chill

[@user-account-not-found]

One of the best parts of the net is this series.

[@jeremyknifley]

I am very glad that it is a real possibility that we may be able to own personal flying saucer shaped vehicles someday soon.

[@Naltddesha]

This was great, thanks for all your wonderful uploads!

[@yogisie]

This is really good! This is the type of content I subscribed for!

[@gregorm9183]

Awesome interesting stuff. Thanks for taking the time to put these clips together. New subscription , Bells and all !.

[@NoirpoolSea]

The short clip from "Beyond Immortality" (thank you for the archive link) from the 80's perfectly recaps our advances in health over the recent centuries.. and a perfect way to possibly inoculate those anti-science individuals just how much better their life is now, and what they are trying to revert us to with their hatred of science and technology. And no, you didn't add the warped audio in your clips I discovered.. they were in the source!

[@christophermichael.w.7577]

I like that show "lost in space" and I used to read "the mars chronicles". I remember that when I read the mars chronicles I thought that it was unrealistic that the characters traveled by reusable rockets instead of a space shuttle.

[@LeXx_LeCryce]

Thanks for the new video

[@RSEFX]

Looks like Paul Julian artwork in that opening animated segment, FREEDOM 2000. He illustrated the great short THE TELL-TALE HEART in the mid-50's/narrated by James Mason, if I recall correctly.

[@madnar9]

Those were the days when every HS kid had a Quantel Paintbox in their bedroom.

[@rayceeya8659]

The only word I have for this is prescient, but it's not strong enough. "Overwhelmed by there own technology". "The changes were so gradual". We are so screwed.

[@abundantYOUniverse]

Jennifer Gray and Shatner you gotta be kidding! Fantastic.

[@pjd4268]

"...Which takes us back to the future of space flight.." Right.

[@samr.england613]

Love the part about, "Galaxy 238"! What the writers really meant, I hope, was "solar system 238". Hehe! Still love it tho, and all retro sci-fi.

[@johnrettig1880]

GOOD GOD Someone just made me feel older than I am . I remember every single one of those videos but they wasn't clumped together like this . Each one was a program by its self and either a 15 minute too a 30 minute video . 🌎 🚀

[@RSEFX]

Would be great to see the full version of FREEDOM 2000. That's famous actor long associated with SF films, Richard Carlson, as the male robot's voice. Carlson was involved in several science-based tele-show specials around the late 50's early 60's, in partnership with Dr. Frank Baxter.

[@abundantYOUniverse]

These are the best.

[@gorymarty56]

This was a cool episode

[@MsLila44]

That was a sweet intro!

[@bryandawkins]

in the cartoon where they investigated the destroyed civilization they found nothing of value was lost. I really dig these visits to yesteryear.

[@arvo.]

[@eddiemunster4094]

And that's how mankind will end through wars and total annihilation 😬

[@pjd4268]

DCX. I'm sold. Checking Amazon now..

[@GeekFilter]

Ok, I thought the first planet they went to in Freedom 2000 was going to be Earth with a 'Planet of the Apes' kind of reveal

[@vylbird8014]

Even when that was made, 'earth all along' was an overused cliche.

[@kiwitrainguy]

"You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!"

[@deeman1643]

thanks!

[@Kurzula5150]

7:37 I wonder if futurist Peter Schwartz predicted the rise of beards in the 21st century.

[@user-ul3lx2sl1q]

I ❤ the beginning of this! Why didn’t it go on? I wish I could save just the beginning.

[@trainluvr]

The future is video projectors!

[@gorymarty56]

Shatner n the robots.

[@BrokeBrain42]

Spaceships without seat belts...70s scifi for sure.

[@ferociousgumby]

That is NEVER ``Jessica Scott``. That is JENNIFER GREY, soon to be world-famous in Dirty Dancing and Ferris Bueller`s Day Off. I know that`s her, it couldn`t be anyone else, but I don`t know why a budding young actress would pretend to be some random high school kid when she could be boosting her fledgling career.

[@aaron2709]

Damn this is kool.

[@rujo2k]

Imagine being psychoanalyzed by a Commodore 64😅Yikes!

[@Dresdentrumpet]

The only thing missing from that first cartoon was them finding the Loc-Nar

[@didierpuzenat7280]

Sadly the first planet of the video is the most probable future of Earth, and indeed the people on this planet knew, and they had the time to change, but they did not.

[@johnny-ko4mm]

Dude at 10 min is definitely a murderer

[@liubei7276]

9:32 Hey, isn't that the annoying sister of Ferries Bueller? :D

[@christalcrawford6542]

Is that Jennifer Gray from Dirty Dancing?

[@abundantYOUniverse]

Sure is!

[@ferociousgumby]

@@abundantYOUniverse I can`t find this on her IMDB profile. Hmmmmm. . .

[@curbyourshi1056]

Definitely. Looks like she's having the time of her life with that expensive computer drawing stuff that she's not trying to sell to anyone.

[@donkeyslayer4661]

Like we didn't see that one coming. Ha Ha Ha.

[@richsackett3423]

Thumbnail: Is they what people used to wear to wash their BMW 2002? Seems like a lot of trouble.

[@ginger55085]

Quite interesting first animation - got many things right but failed to see man's fatal flaws in the end

[@jobella2656]

He said information will be the new kind of wealth; to bad he didn't studied history as in the dark ages the Middle East was ahead yet it wasn't wealthier just advanced.

[@krebsomaticfourtwenty]

8:23 Is that actress Jennifer Grey?

[@ferociousgumby]

Oh yeah! ``No one puts Baby in the corner.``

[@I_stand_with_Israel.]

8:32 Isn’t she Jennifer Grey?

[@SteveMacSticky]

Jessica Scott looks like Jennifer Grey

[@gorymarty56]

Lady with what sounds like a computer acting as a shrink? Wow .

[@tremorist]

Nice video. You should consider correcting the audio levels. There is some nasty clipping.

[@BritishPatriot662-4]

The 1990's Delta clipper no SpaceX Elon Musk

[@honkleretta1050]

I'll bet greta said ......"HOW DARE YOU", when she saw this

[@BlueZooTycoon]

What year was that cartoon made in?

[@picsnportraits]

1974

[@mikemasterson5437]

Is that Baby?

[@galloe8933]

I just wonder how old this cartoon really is, they were close with calling out how we Earthlings will end our game... Except heat domes, they said nothing of heat domes wich is sad because they make it hard to walk my dogs as the ground burned their paws. In the future as in our present time, we don't actually care about dogs.

[@leafloaf5054]

Those young folks seem to be full of live compared to todays youth who couldn't speak one clear sentence whilst staring in to nothingness. Btw I'm 25yo.
