One thing to point out with the gigameter, and it's function, is that similar to the PKE meter, the microphones on the front pulse and move whilst detecting the source of the the pyschomagnetheric spike. You can see this on the street scene as they leave Dana's, the microphones are pulsing and moving trying to determine the source of the reading. As the move to the centre of the road, the microphones stop and point forward, indicating that they're on the hot spot. At this point, the user is able to use the dome to gather a reading of the source site. You can see it performing this way again in the Art Gallery as Egon is walking around, the microphones are moving and pulsing as they've not fixed on a location yet.
One thing about the PKE Meter is it has no numerical read out. Ray's reading in GB2 was done with "the audience doesn't see/know" approach. It works like a divining rod. The wings rise and fall as one gets closer or farther away from the PKE source. The Giga Meter is specifically calibrated to measure psychomagnetheric energy, which is paranormal hence the PKE's ability to detect it too. A chapter in the novelization has the GB's responding to an office executive who had unknowingly been drinking from a water cooler with mood slime in it. His angry outbursts kept causing spontaneous combustions in his office. This means that ingesting it causes psychic influences similar to when the GB's were covered in it.
I gotta tell you, the way you thoroughly and logically explain the functions and specifications of the Ghostbusters equipment/mythos is something Egon Spengler probably would've been proud of!
@@SpaceWizardCosplay We definitely stayed! Maybe tonight we'll do a Stranger Than Fiction on our thoughts. I came home and took a lot of notes for future videos.
I love your explanation of how slime works, I was hoping you'd go into how the positively charged slime makes people feel good/happy/ sense of well being.
Not just three pronunciations of giga, but where to put the inflection: giga-meter, or gi-gameter (like how we say ther-mometer instead of thermo-meter).
Hi there, can you please do a video on the equipment on Ecto 1?? Truly my favorite parts of the new movie were the scenes with Ecto 1 in it, one of the most iconic vehicles in movie history. But I don't think there is a video anywhere that describes all the gizmos and canons on top of the vehicle.
Awesome work. Think you can do a more in depth look at the slime itself. Namely the Pink, Blue, Yellow, Green, and Black slime itself. That would be fun
I Really Really Really Really Want You To Do A Video About All Of The Pages In The Ghostbusters Ectomobile Owner’s Workshop Manual And Show It To Us Please And Thank You
@@ChannelingSpirits thank you so much for answering my question I just looked it up on Google and was checking it out and wow that is so cool after all these years of wondering what that was
As someone who knows radiation. Especially ionizing radiation. You are basically saying its ionizing radiation. x-ray/ gamma rays. So that means this slime is highly radioactive. All the ghostbusters would have gotten sick and died from radiation within the first day or so. Dont get me started on the chemistry of a high ph and what it does on the human body. I think you need to rework your slime theory. Lastly humans dont put off ionizing radiation. We put off thermal radiation. IE heat.
What? Next thing you'll tell me a cyclotron of that fits on a backpack wouldn't produce a proton stream that visible which undulates and is sustained at a distance! Either Ramis/Aykroyd knew that 2.5 GeV's was a lot of energy (which they likely didn't considering one draft said an average human produced 3 GeV's) or the joke is, yes, the radioactive damage would kill them. As for it being highly alkaline, the 2009 video game addresses this. Black Slime is caustic and my theory is Ivo found a way to temper it to make it pink slime. You're more than welcome to spend hours of research, writing, recording, and editing to present your slime theory.
@@ChannelingSpirits I am for suspending some disbelief. fyi a backpack cyclotron with a visible particle stream is every viable. But your channel is to scientifically explain how it works. I just saying this explaintion doesn't fit science at all. And it needs a different that at least better fits particle physics and health physics. Its more the ionizing part of the radiation that I have issues with.
Makes sense that when they drop the Gigameter in the abandoned train station in the first script it was melted Down. Because of the hot negative slime. Means these ghost are evil and Hot fresh out of Hell in thee afterlife.

I will never get tired up these technical breakdowns

My wife said she wanted to drink the mood slime (seeing it in the court room scene), but I told her I thought that would be bad.

Just got home from watching Ghostbusters Afterlife in the cinema a few hours ago and really enjoyed it.
We are going to see it in an hour. Can’t wait!
Lucky
@@ChannelingSpirits tomorrow is the 19th
@@ChannelingSpirits Awesome! I hope you enjoyed 'Afterlife'. Also hoped you stayed for the 2 end credits.
And maybe a little review would be nice. :)

I guess this device can be used to detect and measure someone with “The Shine” from the Steven King series
I love Channeling Spirits,! You make the Ghostbusters world Real for me

Love this channel! Keep up the great content. Love the Beetlejuice stuff as well!
Goodness. Get Heidi a nice bonus for all the technobabble she had to rattle off this time.
When ray Stanz got possessed by vigo is the most number one possessed me too and that image didn't go away
Great job with the research. Perfect time to come out with this video right before the new movie comes out
Not just three pronunciations of giga, but where to put the inflection: giga-meter, or gi-gameter (like how we say ther-mometer instead of thermo-meter).
I refuse to abandon my DS9 pronunciation of Odo-meter.

I love the slime-cut of Ghostbusters

The word psychomagnetheric appears in works on the subject such as Thomas J Hudson's "the Law of Psychic Phenomena", written in 1908.
Do you know the specific chapter? I've found topics on psycho-theraputics, psychometry, animal magnetism, but nothing on psychomagnetheric.
OK you got me. Subscribed!
You guys gotta get a hold of Aykroyd sometime to pick his brain about all this.
If you've got his number, we'd love to chat with him!
@@ChannelingSpirits Sorry, not allowed to share vital information over the internet.
This one was dope af!
Love these vids and the love put in them!
In a story I wrote, I had Kylie Griffin ask Roland Jackson, "Did you need gloves?"
Absolute quality content!! Why don’t you have waaaaaay more subs?!?
We have no idea! Tell your friends, family, pets; we’d love to have more viewers!
Ray totally slept with it.
(Goes looking for a GB/East of Eden mashup video, for what Ray’s been up to in between GB2 and GBA…. GONG!)
Egon slept with the slime, not Ray.
5:17 Someday I still want to know why they had Louis wearing a colander on his head.
It was wired to read his brainwaves and psyche.
2.5 GEVs, in the street scene...
Where a human presence wasn't noticed, but almost enough to be a full humans worth of energy.
I Really Want You To Make A Video About The Corcoran 995 Jump Boots
Thanks for the video Heidi or is it hydie or heidi / ie
Thank you! It’s Heidi :)
We're can I get one of those gig meter, anyone know
Ok what’s the spiny metal thing Ray uses around Vigo. It was never mentioned just shown as far as I know.
Its a Globuscope panoramic camera. Ray seems to be using it as some sort of sensor so it's not clear what exactly it does in universe.
@@ChannelingSpirits oh awesome thanks
--> 8:40 --> Where does the slime put the Uggs and yoga pants?

Hey fellow ghost heads! 👻
Who here is ready to listen about slime! 😉
ME 😝
Hmm I wonder what will happen if you show saddness around pinkslime
IS OOZIE AND SLIME ARE THE SAME THING OR DIFFERENT JUST ASKING 😏
Can we take a second and talk about what in the hell Ray has in his hand when they're at the Museum and he's scanning the painting
It’s a Globuscope panoramic camera. He seems to be using at a scanner of some sort but it’s an actual camera.
