Tenet || A Basic Inversion Visualization #1

Super basic inversion visualization (SPANISH Subtitles)
This may help wrap your heads around some basics represented in the film.
Like why do people sometimes seem to 'disappear'.
Including some movie clips as examples.
Cheers
HERE are some good videos by other youTubers that take it even farther! Keep this visualization in mind as you follow their diagrams.

[@CuivTheLazyGeek]

There's a similar mechanism in The Talos Principle (having to do some actions and then later cooperate with your past self and the past objects it interacted with). The whole mechanism is already very mind twisty (so if I go there and do this, then that object will be available to my future self and he can use it to open this door but that means I need to get back to this point to hold this open so that my future self can now go back to the start area). But at least both you and your past self move forward in time, it's just that NOW became a mix of the NOW of the past self and future self (and related objects). Adding actual inversion wouldn't work since "what happened, happened", including effect before cause, and the game can't predict that until the cause!

[@ubahfly5409]

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

I work from home now at a computer all day. It's easy to keep tabs of comments :) thanks!

[@whatbrettdid]

Here's my question (great channel by the way, really helps), in the Tenet universe, are members of the public shocked when they see highway chases with cars moving backwards, or they see two dudes walking backwards through the middle of the city, or is it like 'Ahhh well, I'm late for work, I ain't going to query that?'

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

They certainly should be. I can think of only one instance in the movie where someone reacts. When TP/Neil return to Oslo airport and run , inverted , back past the burning plane, we can see a fireman do a double take st them as they run by (backwards) . But he quickly turns back to dealing with the fire.

[@dr.netfreak]

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill Nice catch, I'll have to watch that one again

[@lanhod]

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill once more when TP was in the Saab. One female pedestrian looked at him/car going backwards with a confused face

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

@@lanhod absolutely right! I forgot about that. That one is even more clear.

[@Mircalla]

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill The reason he goes back to dealing with the fire is because from TPs inverted perspective, he's moving back to a time before the fireman noticed TP. From an inverted perspective, effect comes before cause, so from TPs perspective, the fireman reacts to TP /BEFORE/ he notices him, then un-notices him.

[@enriquecomas933]

What makes it difficult is understanding the two timelines both on the same linear thread. And that both TP's, Neil's and Sator's are cognitively aware of their inversion, so they are not just fleshes moving in reverse. Sator going through the gate together shows the switch, and inverted Sator now knowing his past, to help him get the piece, because of the interrogation. He then flees to Vietnam, remaining in inverted state. They are necessarily going "back in time", if anything they are presently, "walking through their past" to gain advantages of events that already occurred. Why there are 3 Neils in the final battle, 3 TPS and 3 Neils in the airport and 3 Sator's in the Highway scene. One is the past, one is the future performing the advantage and the last one is the present that achieves the goal. Why you need Blue Team to explain the battle, red team to perform and Neil to switch and perform the extract, but he switched one more time to save the mission knowing he had too. Thus his sacrifice for TP so he can create Tenet after all this.

[@wasimakram93]

What?!

[@johnpaulboudreaux9569]

this is the most conclusive explanation I've seen. I felt like I already mostly understood the concepts but this was that last 10%

[@TuriGamer]

I think this is the main point confusing most people The guy isnt time traveling in the regular sense he is just moving backwards

[@El-Duderino-His-Dudeness]

@@TuriGamerThis is where I get hung up though. If he's only moving backwards, then why does Sator disappear in that scene? If he's only moving backwards physically, should we see an inverted version of him exit? But then wouldn't he be playing out the interrogation in forward motion sense it happened in reverse? Explanations like this video focus on this concept of how you can only see the now. This sort of helped explain to me why you can't see him on the other side. Because since he's outside of the "now" then he's gone. This I think helped me a little. Like the reason why inverted Sator is visible, is because we're seeing it from a forward moving perspective, which can only view inverted people going in reverse. But the video I think makes it confusing because it shows like a transparent version of the Protagonist (standing in for Sator in that scene) reverse walking and then coming out the other side going back beyond present Neil. That's what conflicts with me on the explanation.

[@ppp5644]

Yes, and if you are inverted already and go into a turnstile, you would just appear outta nowhere seen from normal flow time. Because your inverted future is normals past, until he re-inverts, which is the earliest moment (forwards time) you are even in the room.

[@ryanod9845]

You can see an example of that at the freeport the first time around.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

Exactly. If you are coming from the future you Appear. If you are going to the past you disappear. Normal Sator goes in red side: disappears. Inverted TP and Neil go in blue side: Appear.

[@PauloEdson]

​@@WelbyCoffeeSpill I still can't grasp how this is feasible in TENET's universe...​

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

@@PauloEdson Think of it this way,. If you and your friend are at 10:00 pm and he steps inside the red turnstile, he inverts and now travels backwards in time to 9pm. How do you see someone at 9pm when you are at 10pm? You don't. He is not moving with our time flow anymore. But,..from 9pm to 10pm,..you would have seen your friend doing things backwards, ending with him reverse entering the blue turnstile at the same time he entered the Red side.

I never understood why they vanished to an outside observer but both came out of the turnstile in the reversed perspective.

[@octowuss1888]

How can you see or hear when inverted? The light and sound would be travelling away from your eyes and ears.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

All the movie gives us is a brief explanation, like you will feel disoriented, blurry, but your body will adjust. Only reach I can imagine is that, sound and light move away from you. But it still starts where it ended, like your eyes and eardrum. So those "sensors" are still being pinged. Just from the other side of the membrane. Hence, disoriented but adaptable in time.

[@timhold2016]

Same goes for how you would live. your blood would be flowing in the wrong direction.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

@@timhold2016 technically your blood is inverted with you when you go in the turnstile. So it would be pumping and flowing the same direction as you. You are inverted, the world is not. Which is why you need your own inverted air. Light and sound are the big questions though. As those are external from you.

[@babyyoda1462]

Technically, because the light is moving away from your eyes, your eyes have already recieved it, which means you can see. Just backwards. Same goes with ears.

[@mr_smellnice5724]

I had thought the same thing about sight/light - also if everything's inverted wouldn't gravity repel you upwards? This film also made me realise when you're going through life normally, you're never bang in the moment, always looking at the light coming from something which will take a certain amount of time however small.

[@drv4859]

Great explanation. Thank you. I always wondered how both Sators disappeared after they inverted in the turnstile

[@hiranom20]

That also confused me for years lol! It's simply that once you're moving forward through time on the red side, you can only see inverted subjects on the blue side. That's why we saw Sator ambling backwards into the turnstile before he went into the red side to invert. We witness the opposite play out in the first protagonist v protagonist fight scene, where he appears seemingly out of nowhere, but runs through on the other side. The moral of the story is witnessing inversion as a subject moving forward through time would be a highly bizarre experience to the uninitiated.

[@tomlouie2855]

[@gyanprakash7445]

I’ve started watching this for the first time today. Will watch it again yesterday

[@Sickboyfriend]

So the key is understanding why Sator "has disappeared". If you understand this, then you understand how the Turnstile machine works.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

Yes. and I don't think it is difficult once you get it. People have witnessed this countless times in other time travel movies in fact and understand it. Whenever someone time travels in other movies they 'disappear' and pop up in the past or future. But nobody questions that because they are used to it. They are expecting the "teleporting' aspect to be a part of it. In Tenet, it throws people off because subjects don't instantly pop to years prior or after. In Tenet, you don't leap through time, you just pull a U-turn in time.

[@shammendraeshwar433]

So by using the time inversion we get a reverse time clone to cooperate and execute temporal pincer maneuvers.this takes 'help yourself' to a whole new level.

[@sleepdeprived7780]

In Nolan’s world, you bless people when you sneeze.

[@krapeevids6992]

Lol, clever!

[@MartinBarreby]

I think what made it click for me was that even if you KNOW when they go through the portal that they are going into the past by going in reverse, we still look at it from the Protagonists point of view, and this kind of tricks the brain to instead look at it as a parallel time lines rather then the same going in reverse. So that is why people disappear suddenly from the point of view from people not going through since they have past the past already. So if the protagonist now go back in time and then goes through the portal again, back to non-reverse state, and goes somewhere else and wait there until the time he went through the portal the first time, for the people who stayed behind it will look like he suddenly teleported to that new location the moment the protagonist went trough he portal the first time. Try to imagine each persons point of view first, then you might see the bigger picture of it. This is a great movie, especially when you start to grasp the concept, but for me i grasped it to late which made me enjoy the movie somewhat while watching it, but a lot more when I finally got it, long after the credits roll. And that is a flaw of this movie, it's a to much of a mind boggling concept so it would need even more explanation than what it gives. I think if they would instead demonstrated this with people first, and from different peoples points of view, instead of objects, like the bullet, I think we could have understood it better. I realize that seeing the reverse bullet and other things gives it a really cool mystery at first, but I would rather understand the movie better while watching it rather than just see mysterious things. Sure, I might be too stupid to not get it quick enough, but if I can reach this conclusion after the movie by other means it could have been done in the movie already. Of course, this is very subjective, but it feels like many people are struggling with this movie.

[@waddefaq4325]

These are great! Ive seen the movie 3 times and ive read the script. You should make a visualization of the concept of last in, first out when going thru the turnstyle. It was something that was said in the freeport and in the script there are a few subnotes that specifically say that.

[@DevilSpider_]

Time travel stories tend to split into two categories: - "One timeline" stories (Tenet is an example of one), where going into the past overwrites the future, with slim chances of recovery. - "Multiple timelines" stories, where going into the past creates a new timeline, leaving the original intact. What if Tenet was a "multiple timeline" story? Every decision done by an individual splits the timeline into multiple, into the future, but every decision done by an inverted individual is rendered and multiple timelines connecting into one, preserving causality. Let's say TP enters the turnstile in this version of the story. Now, there's no need for the other TP to exist in this timeline, since the act of inversion splits the timeline into two. One "before" inversion and one "after" inversion.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

I am a huge fan of the One timeline approach, but For all we know there are a bajillion timelines constantly being spawned based on decisions. :) In Tenet we never see a situation one way, then another. Neil basically says "There is no way of knowing. If you are there to make a change you are not here to observe its effect". So our perspective in the movie is following around Protagonist, but there is no way to know if Sator lived in another, or Neil didn't die in one. We are stuck observing the one where it happened just as we saw it in the movie.

[@imwahyou2]

One timeline, especially traveling in reverse, still doesn't make a lick of sense to me. Suppose you invert into a small room where two people have been mindlessly walking in a circle, one behind the other, for the entire day. You shoot one of them dead. The guy still walking keeps walking in reverse until he trips over the dead guys body. What would you observe if you kept traveling back in time in reverse? The guy you didn't shoot is supposed be walking in the circle for the day but now he's trapped in the floor in a loop, acting out his life until he reaches yesterday and so on. How could he even be alive if he never left the room yesterday, or the day before that ect. to eat and survive ? And the guy you shot...He is also trapped in a loop and his dead body "was always there" right? So in reverse his corpse will never decompose, his blood will never evaporate. How would that affect the environment from micro to macro scale in reverse? What about all the people, surroundings, incidences that these two people chain affected in their lives? It seems like butterfly effect would occur in reverse. That is until you travel back far enough and you see that both of these men could not have been born in a hospital. The whole past would glitch out because important events did not occur. So the future never happened either if we are still using One timeline. Tbh, I think if it were One timeline, the simple act of inverting into the past and disturbing particles of space in reverse would trigger butterfly effect and the whole universe would end😂

[@geoffnaylor3734]

@@imwahyou2 The proving room sort of creates a "forced" consistency. Nobody is using turnstyles to do something that would create a paradox, and if they did, their actions couldn't have happened. Notice that before you invert, you check the window to see an inverted you walking in at the same time. I imagine, if you are walking to a turnstyle as someone who is going to do an action that will actually change things, you'll notice no inverted copy of yourself walking backwards into the other side. That means there is no inverted copy to "become" by using the turnstyle. So basically the turnstyle won't even work.

@@Leoheatblast no. Future people invert gold, put it under ground and gold starts going backwards through the time to the past because it is inverted

I know it before But after watching this, I can definitely say that you explains really well !! Well which software do you use ?

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

Its simple. But people kept asking the same thing about disappearing so I figures I'd bang this out. Thanks!

Oh, for software I am using Maya and After Effects.

My sister hated the movie until I sent her one of your vids (the car chase) to watch. After that, everything clicked for her so she watched the movie again and loved it. Thanks for all your posts 👍

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

Awesome! Glad it helped!

I had an idea of what's happening but this video made it very clear thank you! Great movie :)

Nolan should hire you immediately

[@jsc3417]

2:54 shouldn't the blue clock be going backwards?

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

I did that , and moved it down just to show that while inverted 'your' clock still moves forward for you. You still age and act forward from your perspective. I guess I could of made it clearer.

[@donotreach]

Please do a Neil timeline from the 14th (and maybe talk about if he's really Kat's son). There was like seven version of him on the 14th and I'm STILL confused about his death.

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

Huh? How did you even get to this video? It is set to unlisted. Lol.

[@TheAJ2501]

Neil is not Kat's son. No supporting facts from the film to hold up the theory. That's just a self-wishful theory. Although, interesting to see an animation of multiple Neils on the 14th. That would be reverse mindblown for Welby. lol.

[@donotreach]

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill it was in your playlist

[@donotreach]

@@TheAJ2501 I think it would be cool, if Max grew up to work with Tenet and The Protagonist. Maximilien has Neil inverted in the name and if he grew up into Tenet he would know TP for his entire life, explaining how he knows so much ab him

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

@@donotreach lol. I didn't know it shows up. My fail. Good thing i set my Stalsk12 work in progress video to private! :)

[@StefanTetelepta]

I finaly understand that Forward Sator en Inversed Sator walking backwards into the turnstile is the same Sator, that we only see because the proofwindow. The Inverted forward Sator is at the time Fprward TP see dissapeared is at that moment on the highway with Kat. I was confused because of the rpoofwindowd. I was wondring: Forward Neil follows forward TP and sees in the proofwindow backwards TP walking back. They can interact. So, in theorie Neil kan shoot forward TP just before he vanish in the turnstile. And can Forward Neil shoot backwards walking TP trough the glass?

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

If Neil shoots forward TP before he goes in, we would of already seen backwards Tp bleeding from a gunshot wound. If Neil shot and killed TP,..we wouldn't have seen backwards TP at all, lol. If Neil shot backwards TP through the glass if would be like backwards TP was shot with an Inverted bullet. Neil would of seen a dead TP on the other side who then rises up alive and gets shot! Just like in the ending scene in the tunnel.

[@ChristopherNolanOfficial]

Ok now I understand the film.

[@localyocal498]

Hey Fam podcast sent me here and I’m grateful for it

[@DmitriyRakhuba]

In freeport when TP enters turnstile while being inverted - thats more interesting from poinf of view in normal time

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

I was gonna do that, but the video was getting long. It almost the reverse of this. Maybe in another video. Thanks.

[@nerd6414]

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill hey I still don't understand how an inverted person going back to normal comes from nowhere, can you pls explain

[@WelbyCoffeeSpill]

@@nerd6414 using the movie as an example: TP and Neil enter the turnstile Room at 10:00. TP fights inverted_TP , who appeared out of nowhere, from 10:00 to 10:15. Ok, from inverted_Tp's view, he started the fight at 10:15 to 10:00. Then jumped into the turnstile un-inverting. So at 10:00 he is now normal, leaps out of the other side, pushes Neil out of the way and runs down the hall. They seem to just "appear" because they never existed BEFORE 10:00.

@@WelbyCoffeeSpill do you know how Neil knows that he has to go to the opera seige to save TP? Does future TP tells him that?

@@thecoolring6431 I don't think there is anything in the movie that explicitly says so. People seem to believe that yes, a future TP in charge of Tenet assigned Neil to go to the opera at some point.

Let's crowdfund this idea. If he was able to do such a great animation, why couldn't he create the sequels? ⭐ Either live-action or animation would satisfy me as a fan. 😍

To simplify : - Neil and PT is in 16 October -but there's actually PT who is inverted in 16 October who exist after PT who with Neil going into the time tube -and now he's moving backward in Neil persepective as inverted PT, and inverted PT will see himself and Neil going backward too in his persepective in the same day 16 October, -Inverted PT see the world is normal but if he look at Neil, Neil world is in backward -and Watermelon with Chicken seem delicious

Once the perspective “flips” around 2:55, wouldn’t it be more appropriate for the clock animation to run backwards? Assuming the clock is a representation of “normal” time and entropy?

[@wawanfromkonoha6631]

You guys can simply shot me in the head then watching this video 10 times over

[@Readyforfun14]

So it's kinda simple, thanks to this video. it's because in tenet universe, people cannot travel to the future, they can only go to the past, and as they go to the past, the current people cannot see them (because it already happened somewhere). And when TP goes through the turnstile, he's in inverted mode. if he would like to follow the current timeline, he has to go through the turnstile again. After the job is done, only then will he go back to his current state.
