One of the most endearing computer generated cats I’ve ever seen. You managed to capture the spirit of the animal perfectly with only a handful of polygons. Wonderful video
This shows up at a time when I sat down at the computer and said “let’s turn it off and take a break from the internet” and here I am on my cellphone watching a cat and crt in a room filled with static.
I have a little media streamer box I bought years ago, that can mount SMB shares from my main Linux box and play videos on my living-room TV. There is this TV series from the 1980s called _Max Headroom_ where, during the opening credits, there is a few seconds of random video noise. And my streamer would always get stuck at that point, to the point where I had to power-cycle it to make it work again. Luckily I could fast-forward to after that point, and it would play OK from there.
It would be really cool if RUclips analyzed videos and determined what bandwidth they needed. This video could remain standard def but use the data rate of its 4K specs.
@@yopachi You could save some time by just learning exactly what the compression scheme they use is. I think it's just h.264 with a certain Kbps data rate limit.
A room dedicated to a repeating low-poly cat rolling out of a floating TV would be absolutely wonderful. But with these static walls, I'd probably lose my mind in under five minutes.
hm… this got me wondering, is it possible to record to VHS with transparency? like, if you had a blank VHS, or recorded with random static from a TV, could you record only at the points where the beam would be touching the parts of the picture with animation?
Short answer: No. Long answer: Probably no. But it is an interesting question. My knowledge of VCRs is not the best, but if I were to make a guess on how to do it, the first step would be removing the erase head. Then I suppose if you hooked up some very high speed switching circuit, controlled by a computer, that turned the head on and off as it rotated, you could time it so that it made an image (or gaps). You'd have to make sure that the control track remained intact. I don't know. It might possible in theory. VCRs are such finely-tuned sensitive things. They don't take well to modifications. It's amazing that they work at all.
I used a Canopus ADVC-110. It can do analog-> digital and digital->analog video conversion. There are plenty of other hardware devices capable of doing this as well.
truly an animation worth being repeated 20 times!
it isn't
on the 10th runthrough out of 12, the cat inflates
@@PlayMakeReview my deepest apologies

Thank you. I'm sure I took a bit of inspiration from Club Drive (an Atari Jaguar game).
This feels so chaotic yet so calming.
The CGI quality and style feels very reminiscent of the Money for Nothing video, the TV especially looks like it was lifted straight out of it!
That was the peak of computer graphics in my opinion.
@@japhyriddle Undoubtedly.
it's like each time it repeats, I appreciate another detail about and even my brian invents details too
: )
This feels like a fever dream lmao

Ha ha ha. Thanks for watching. But yeah, we should all just go outside.

Whoa, I can understand the quality going to shit from noise, but crashing? That's a poorly designed device.
Every time you do a crime
You get sent to the static dimension
At least, that's what I think this animation is about
Edit: also may or may not inflate
that cat destroyed my homework
As someone who experiments in this medium I understand the 4k upscale trick very well. This one holds up quite well considering the tv noise

@@japhyriddle absolutely. New video idea: generation loss by re-uploading to RUclips. HHAha

this video summoned my real life orange cat. 10/10
mrrrrow
JESUS THAT ONE SCARED ME
oh, the foreshadowing
This liminal space seems nice.

mrrreow
I want my MTV 😮
Sigh. What a sad fate MTV had. It was amazing while it lasted.
cool
michiiiii
*tv*

1:33 did anyone notice
I don't think most people's attention spans are that long.
how did you record this to vhs?!
