Who'd believe that a photography review channel on RUclips would be the best cyberpunk Blade runner-esque futuristic visionary arthouse on the platform. Bravo GxAce. You outdid yourself.
like I don't even have the money to understand the hardware he is talking about but i fucking love his videos
@@edgarego5813Pretty sure this is a video about AI photography and he made up the glasses to tell the story just fyi
He continually out does himself, and I’m convinced he is one of the best creators on the platform currently. Brilliant work always too notch. The scripting too, pulled from all
The best cyberpunk pop stories out there. Bravo!
WORD!
That's quite brilliant. GX satirically skewers himself, while skewering AI generated art, and also being a bit mad.
Also, skewering nostalgia chasing as a primary subject in imagery. Great satire of the "film look" hype. 9/10 because there was no AI images of gas stations or motel signs at night, or basket ball hoops looking hazy on a summer afternoon. 😂
@@-grey I think the film look hype is partially justified because a lot of film has a dreamy vibe to it and looks like memories.
This is why the Ace is worth waiting for. Please remain safe in your time travels and remember us all back here in the 20's. Much love from East Tennessee🙏🏼
wait i thought Tennessee didn't split into two states until the 30's😅
@@uprktk is this comment from the future? did the algorythm mess up and displays it for me even though its wasnt written yet?
aye a fellow East Tennessean!
"There's something about grafted retinal interfaces that you just don't get with direct cerebral links"
Your best work yet, bravo sir
Ah yes, vintage AI.
I honestly would love to see someone create a camera that creates a filtered midjourney recreation after a shutter click.
That’s how this broadcast was made ;)
It does exist! I forgot the name but they made one, i just don't know if it uses MidJourney
@@GxAceground breaking every time mate. If you’re ever in Bangkok look me up.
For a second I wasn’t sure whether I’d seen this sort of thing or if it was just a bad dream - but I’m afraid Apple has done something very similar to this with Vision Pro. When you get on a facetime call with this thing on, it creates an artificial image of you for your conversation partner and vice versa. And let me tell you... it’s not great. More like dumpster fire type stuff, actually. You can see some of the fake footage in their launch video, where they have the balls to call it "realistic".
this literally already exists. Google “Paragraphica”
"There's something about grafted interfaces that you don't get with direct cerebral links" - - - I've been saying this for YEARS! Thank yoU!!!
The actual craftsmanship of these devices you are showing in your workshop is just insane to me. The level of world building you put on the table with these videos is... complete. Well done.
Dude, your imagery and visuals are always otherworldly. But this felt like I was in a video game with quality beyond anything money can buy 😲
Thank you so much my friend! This was definitely a fun one to make :)
This is it. This is the content I've been wanting to see from you. To see you start to slip into the vintage/analog shades of yesteryear. I'm tired of the overly-synthetic, heavily processed slag of modern interfaces. I have no idea how you're making this stuff backcompat, but keep going. I need to see more.
I (a french fellow admirer) just learned a world from you comment, didn't know ''yesteryear'' was a thing and I think it's beautiful, thank you
I love how you just predict the future and basically have your own lore now, Ace. Truly a mad visionary lol
This is a great parody of the nostalgia wave in camera tech. I especially liked the nod to the uncanny hyper real impressionistic quality of Gen I AI over the newer realistic rendering.
So, 6 dismembered fingers on each hand is the AI equivalent of whack chemical white balances you see with expired film?
I can see people adding extra limbs to AI images like they add muddy green tone to their photos. 😂
I'd love to see what Leica would do with one of these shades. Keep the manual blink function, because frequent 0.2 seconds of black out is more natural.
Think this was closer to the social satire of Black Mirror than the most recent season of Black Mirror.
Dude, I stumbled on your channel about a month ago just randomly looking up old cameras. Your style of cyberpunk/bladerunner is my cup of tea all day long and is what is missing just about everywhere and I can't get enough! Everything about this is so so refreshing to my soul.
i simply cannot believe how good this video is
One of the best short films of the last 10 years without a doubt. Stunning and thought provoking.
What did i just watch? I never knew something like that existed, netherless you creating it, my favorite channel when it comes to cinematics | gear | stills.
You GX, made my night, and blew my mind at the same time..
Keep up the good work man!
The atmosphere you create with the colours, images and music is so immersive. Can't wait for the full length movie!
What a wonderful way to display your artwork!
You definitely have your own “look”, and I enjoy it tremendously!
I love how these things are resurfacing these days, but man, used prices will skyrocket after this video! :(
Such a cool vid
Didn't expect you here!
We know what you did Schlatt. Give yourself in, you will be treated with decency.
This is what art is all about for me. Brilliant work! Exploring these topics with this amount of production quality is always so interesting!
My god, I'm in love with the concept of your channel. Watching your videos makes me feel like I'm living in the future. I don't even know how to describe this other than you're on the next level. Truly amazing work!
You've just taken us on a journey, and I bloody love it! I'm 100% invested in this lore.
I love this short film. I love your style & older camera videos. This one took me to 2123, I was taken away from what I know now and got a glimpse back of what of may be remembered. Excellent job, I will look forward like you have.

This one somehow slipped under my radar for 2 months. Next level creativity.. superb work.
Your designs never fail to bring out the tactile obsession within me. You understand a medium that most people can barely even put into words and you continue to create new constructs showcasing that train of thought with amazing simplicity and yet mind blowing complexity. If I didn't know any better I'd say you had spent your career as a prop designer instead lol
The weight in your shots keep getting heavier and heavier and I am here for it, btw started adopting your 65 x 24 aspect ratio and it has really made my images into something else entirely. From the bottom of my soul thank you for that
This right here just makes me yearn for an entire project with this spirit. You have me an enjoyable head scratch.
I love this. The concept and the parallel to your regular content plus the shots are just crazy as always. SHEESH
A masterpiece, love the world building he is slowly doing in his videos, let’s see where it ultimately goes!
From the onset I was immediately immersed in the future past. I have followed your channel for a while now, but here my good sir, you took it beyond the next level - you set a standard, and an exquisite one at that. I can't wait for what's next.
GxAce is actually a time traveler reviewing old tech from our future
this is beautiful
thanks for the upload
Dude this was sick. I’ve been wanting you for o do more stuff like this. Stoked Friday.
That was so good! Thank you!
Love the creativity, story telling, visuals. Thanks for making this such an entertaining channel.
This channel keeps getting better and better. I love it.
Dang bro, I was waiting for you to drop another video and it was so worth it.
LOVELY JOBLY !! thank you for sharing your imagination with us!! that after credit sequence was pretty cool too!
Your soundscapes are so textured and CRUNCHY I love it
Hands down some of the best story telling on RUclips. Gx creates cinematic masterpieces
Awesome video! I love this distopian future you paint in your videos!
I now understand what you meant when you said “The best camera is the one you have surgically grafted to your retina” 👏🏾👏🏾
Ah yes, a future of creativity - where artists are replaced with computer nerds typing in prompts.
Another amazing piece of work! Loved the creativity and the imagery.
This is perfect! From one Cyberpunk artist to another, I applaud you!!!
This is great. Commenting to push the algorithm.. you deserve the views. Keep it up, man!
This actually makes sense. Because of how proprietary Apple does things, they're next to useless when the time comes for post-apocalyptic scenarios where people need to piece things together from scrap.
We'll be piecing together the inevitable knockoffs that anyone can afford.
This is mind blowing. You have artistry. We wish you further success.
I know your work centers primarily on the visual, but the music and sound on this is magnificent as well.
I love how hey hits us with a patreon post credit scene every time 😂
Great work as always
Super glad to meet you in Ningbo, I thought this might be the time for new Japan video relase! Love your new musk !
Hello! Yeah dude that was so crazy running into you there hahah. What are the odds of that?? Cheers, glad you like it :)
We need more of those.
Absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece of art.
I was searching for older CCD fujifilm cameras and this popped up. I could not swipe away. Incredible talent combined with unbelievable quality of the content in your productions. Look forward to seeing further episodes 👍
Damn it Ace, the price of the N1s are gonna fucking skyrocket thanks to this broadcast.
Awesome video man. Amazing work and creativity.
That was great always have liked your cyberpunk opening scenes so this one was a nice surprise to see you finally do a review of your shades.
You went all in and we are there for it brother 🙏
This is insanely good ! Those images are breathtaking. Your art is very unique in a saturated 21st century. Masterful 🌌
Your videos are insane and such an inspiration ❤
Am I the only one who always finds the Patreon read with the spinny hologram heads the most hypnotic part of every video?
This really does look like a peek into our future, I have to be honest. Every single one of these videos I see from you, I'm constantly and consistently inspired by them. I even bought my 50mm Sirui because your video convinced me way back when!
I guess I'm just stuck here now with my old-rule neural net shade from the Casio prefecture, I hope someday I could afford one of these fancy new ones!
10 out of 10! I'll take these over traditional gear reviews / demos ANY DAY! This level of creativity and aesthetics is EXACTLY why I am subscribed. Excellent work!
This was so good I had to rewatch it.
As a creator you continually out do yourself, and I’m convinced you are one of the best creators on the platform currently. Brilliant work always too notch. The scripting too, pulled from all
The best cyberpunk pop stories out there. Bravo!
Bravo Bravo! The vibe is so prime!
Best and most underrated photography/cinematography channel by far.
That's the best sci-fi short I've seen, ever.
Your cinematography, colour, composition and sound create such a nostalgic feeling in your videos. One of a kind! ❤
This is brilliant. Thanks so much.
I love these videos I love the vibe always a pleasure to watch these
This look into the past from the future. Love this piece
I was grinning the whole way through. This is just excellence :-)
And this is why I stay subscribed to the channel: some of the best Cyberpunk content available anywhere.
Btw, I'd totally be in for such a wearable device with the feature to provide real-time image processing to provide the kind of Cyberpunk aesthetic of this vid.
Loved this one… the images ❤… thanx for scratching the itch of cyberpunk 👌🏻
HOT DAMN, another GxAce video!
The best reaction, Blade Runner style, to Apple Vision Pro. This is so well done and I love the Patreon appeal at the end!
You are one of the most creative youtubers I have ever witnessed. Keep the the great content!
Me in the future when looking up reviews for my cyborg body modifications:
This is some real cyberpunk ghost in the shell type shit
Man, your vids are something else, I'm surprised you don't have a million or more subs, YET.
It's obvious your mastery of the visuals but I also want to note the amazing sound design and soundtracks of your videos. Sublime work.
Wow man. That is some real creativity right there. I respect it.
I’m working on scripts for a yt short film series rn that’s kinda partially cyberpunk and these films have been massively boosting the inspiration meter
thanks so much bro 👊
wow! so much stuff, self reference and commentary, I love it!
Exquisite art. Many thanks for sharing your visions!
Super delicate niche blending in such a unique way the cinematic gear review + fantasy storytelling + Ai, superb.
I have to watch this again on my desktop when I get home. My phone does not do it justice.
Your works are inspiration! Thanks for that!
Very well done!!
the real nightmare with continuity isn't that Apple isn't in the future, but that Patreon apparently is
I'm jk, this is insanely good work, love the concept.
Picking up where Shirow left off back in the 90s. Fantastic work.
aaaa the production value is off the charts!!
Get so stoked anytime you post a new video.
I f@cking love your content, keep going.
i love it, i love it, i love it, i WANT more thank you gx.
I genuinely had a smile on my face when watching this. Bravo sir🙏🏾👍🏾
I loved your sci-fi world building from the first time I saw one of your baked-in "commercials" for old computers in your earlier videos. And the new headset looks cool as hell
Took me a second, but then… brilliant work. Truly - amazing. 👊🏻
I have to applaude you! You managed to make a review of the best non photography photography tech available at the time of writing this and didn't forget the homage to the best camera available to humans.
Just so darned good!
