About two years later I’m still deeply contemplative about this one. Scorpy’s got a real talent in making comforting but such unambiguously personal art. To be who I am now, to truly live, I think I had to give up nearly everything. I’m not the same person I was and I’m not sure if it matters
i can't stop thinking about the nightlight segment. the footage of the beach with peaceful music just abruptly stopping and cutting to *"What have you given up to be who you are now?"* was visceral.
I’m only 15 and it genuinely made me think of the relationships, hobbies, and experiences that I’ve had throughout my life and how few of them I still have now. How many things I will give up now to become who I will be in the future? Wild.
that whole ending section was really melancholy and sad to me personally. i know the video is meant to be funny, and it is, but all of those questions hit me
i lov how much scorpy's video projects feel like collages like i can imagine going to a museum w his projects being projected onto the walls n stuff. his artistic sense is rly inspiring :-)
Videos don't tend to make me uneasy anymore. This video still makes me uniquely uncomfortable. Every moment feels jarring, and then it just ends with a fucking CLOWN.
I'm glad that Among Us and also Hats are canon to the Benry Cinematic Universe. In all seriousness I was losing my mind at the absolute urgency at having to "destroy all these hats". The zero comment on the exposed brains and slowly rotating crewmate, complete with can for visor. The completely uncalled for transition from funny gmod ARG parody to high-quality analogue horror parody. This truly is the April Fool ever. I do feel better.
That's the best part: what we can't describe with words alone he manages to express through avenues such as this. Something you feel so strongly and that you want others to understand so badly yet can't say yourself due to the limitations of the written word. It's amazing.
This camera movement, random stuff on ground, random things in his inventory and lagging reaaally reminds of those 2016 sandbox videos i used too watch back in the day :))
There's definitely a science to creating this brand of unease. I can't tell how much of it is an involuntary knack for the stuff, and how much is conscious, deliberate choice. This is one of the most genuinely, viscerally artistic and harrowing things I've seen come from anyone in RTVS. And it managed to do so while containing fumny mungus
Everyone says the analog part was really creepy but I enjoyed the dreamy feel of it and the song in the background. It was kinda creepy but the cool kind of creepy
This is legitimately a beautiful piece of post-cinema/Internet art. Strangely moving and surprisingly deeply profound. Scorpy should be proud of the art he's making, it's really something else.
Your art brings me such weird emotions - joy, discomfort, melancholy, sadness? The entire portion from 9:53 onward was so beautiful and well done, I adore your mind and sense of creativity so damn much. It’s so interesting and almost haunting. But in the same way it’s still has those comedic tones at times. Nevertheless, I’m obsessed with your work. Keep up the amazing work, Mr. Pens.
Scorpy, you make the most deranged and amazing content I've ever seen in my life. Have you considered making something more spooky themed? The things you say and the questions you ask feel so out of left field, they fucking get me. There's something incredibly unnerving about them, and I feel like the sort of psychological warfare you employ by just being yourself would work really well in a horror setting. It challenges the way most people think in a way they aren't prepared to handle, and I absolutely love it
genuine masterpiece. all these joke/meme characters who fandoms have long taken out of the context of their original stories, then suddenly the first frame from his Top 4 Babies pic hung on the wall... there's so many great parts of this but i think that's an underrated bit. this is such an interesting reflective piece.
seeing Little Bear through that thick VHS effect along with the music made me feel an emotion I didn’t think I knew, like some weird mutated version of nostalgia
so, so insane to watch this live! it was the first time i had been that excited post-stream since around 2020/early 2021! im so happy i got back into watching all the RTVS streams that pop up, and im so glad i stuck around to watch this and the last scorpy stream. this was just epic. thanks dude B)
I think he’s…trying to tell us that it’s ok to let go. To let go of what? Maybe hlvrai? Or maybe anything that could constitute as the “good old days”. Perhaps both. Maybe neither. Either way, this video, this _April fools_ Video was very…very moving. May you live life full and all to its bounty, scorpy.
"when is it time to move on" I don't know if any part of this video was meant to be taken beyond a funny, but out of the small amount of creative things that I've done I often look back. Not thinking about the past as better than what's to come, but even then I find myself still looking back. I can't imagine the pressure that it's been to be a part of a project like hlvrai, or any major project of similar scale and to similar recognition. It definitely seems like the radio TV gang has gone on without being stuck in the past, but I wonder how often feelings like that come back for people who work on things in general. It's easy to laugh at bands like KISS or creatives who just keep recreating the same thing over and over, but I dunno I really wonder how the emotional weight of living up to past accomplishments effects individuals.
this feels like what youd see when youre in a motel and you wake up suddenly in middle of the night and stare at the old 90s tv they have not being able to process whats going on until you fully wake up, but extended for like 10 minutes
@@quantumblur_3145 oh no i am very much familiar with hlvrai and rtvs shenanigans, i just meant that ive been out of the loop abt this particular stream and that this video is incomprehensible to me (thats a compliment)
this shit ruled, the vhs effects were so wonderfully crafted, the sound design was great, and the visuals were really fantastic! thank you for all the laughs scorpy, this was a really neat april fools event
I don't usually comment on videos, but I have to with this one. man, your art is always so fucking cool and unique, this shit kicks ass. every time you share something like this, I'm blown away bc it's so unlike anything I've ever seen before and I end up feeling like my brain is vibrating thinking about it for like a week. keep making cool art 👍
It’s 2am for me right now, I spent the majority of my day sleeping but this is unrelated. God, I love this. I wish I had better words to describe how much this made me feel but the only thing I can get is that it feels like my heart has been rolled into a tinfoil ball and I’ve bitten into it. That feeling when you bite into tinfoil, but it’s an important part of you. Those little nightlight slides got me especially “what have you given up to be who you are now?” As I’m typing this I’m tearing up a bit at the thought. How much have I given up? To please others, myself, what’s been discarded over the years? “When I grow up” and “even if it’s milk reservoir is empty, steam may still remain the the boiler” also hit me in the heart. Milk reservoir is a kind of funny lead in to the sentence, admittedly, but the idea of “this is empty but it’s still going” is. Man the amount of times I’ve just had nothing left to give but I still have to keep going. God ok I’m going to make myself cry, but I wish I could say so much more about this. It’s a really, really wonderful piece of art and I’m very thankful to have seen this. This is an amazing piece of art, Scorpy, thank you for sharing it with us. It means the world
this was so so so cool to see live, and of course- i knew it was gonna be funny, but i can't understate how much i love seeing your analog editing skills and the art that comes out of it is genuinely some of my favorite work, period! there's something really hard about capturing the style and aesthetic of the 80s and 90s but you really capture it in an authentic way and i genuinely admire that
Coming back to this video again and thinking about how much it means to me, as another artist. Scorpy's art means so much to me because the themes around nostalgia and memory speak right to why I create art. I have devoted so much of myself to pursuing art, and it just resonates so much and is so inspirational. We try and try to relive something, but thats impossible, you're instead just becoming an echo. We can grieve the past, and appreciate how it made us feel, but we must let go. There's no way of knowing where the river will lead, but standing still will not make you know any better than you did before. It could lead somewhere amazing. So just, again, thank you for making your art.
I love your content and the stuff you've worked on so I was going through your videos LATE AT NIGHT, 2-3 AM. Saw this video and thought it was just going to be a silly Garry's Mod video, had a panic attack. 10/10!
i have the intense need to give this one long praise right now, so ill do just that. im a little late to this video i think with the work of yours that ive seen, what little bits of sense that get past the amalgamation of motifs and references is overwhelmingly beautiful, and this one takes that to the extreme. it feels warm, there was clearly lots of care put into this project, but i also get the sense of thinking abjectly, something that is without hope. youve combined both of these moods wonderfully to create a middle ground, being content with loss because you are stuck with it, almost. to speak less like an asshole ill sum it up with, this was so fucking beautiful, it truly is breathtaking and should be projected onto 10 foot walls.
oh i didn't realize you put this on youtube. managed to catch this live and was expecting...i dunno. something completely ridiculous for april fool's i guess. this absolutely floored me though. especially the nightlight questions segment. incredible work as always man
soccy, your videos have been a big inspiration for me to get into video editing. The vibes and energies you put into these videos have such a wonderful quality to them that it motivates people to create themselves. Even though there's not as much going on as in the other parts, I keep coming back to 7:55 to 8:45, there's just an indescribable comfort yet apprehension, like recalling an old memory right before falling asleep. Benny from AI invokes these feelings in us all.
i. am honestly just. speechless. im trying to reform my thoughts but im stuck on the beach segment with the music and cut ins is.. wow. i saw this live and i dont think its really left my mind, hence why i Had To come back and rewatch. honestly im probably going to keep thinking about this for months, not sure what conclusion im going to come to but. thank you
This was genuinely such a work of art, it's so impressive how you manage to produce such an eerie yet comforting vibe in your works and I aspire to create like you. Im so excited to see any future projects you work on man, keep being inspirational!
I didn't get to catch this stream, but I'm so glad I could watch this anyways. It really made me feel a broad spectrum of emotions that I can't quite put into words. I love your art, even if I don't always get it, and I wish you success with whatever you choose to make in the future :)
This impacted me in such a deep emotional way. The hat segment had a monotonous urgency that totally enthralled me, I was captivated by each image and the sound design was so finely crafted. Bravo.
i watched I Saw the TV Glow and the theming reminded me of the nightlight segment of this video (after 10:50). BTW, it's surprising to me that I hadn't commented on this video prior to today. it holds a special place in my mind.
hey I’m commenting this almost a year late but scorpy dude your stuff reminds me of norman mclaren’s work when he was at the NFB. gives me the same “feeling” as neighbours or la poulette grise do. beautiful work and your art is so wonderful to follow

This is an accurate compilation of Scorpy’s recollection of hlvr
this is actually just what he was seeing during the streams
love that he confused coomer with bubby
To be fair, Benrey probably did not differentiate between them at all.
scorpy is a genuinely clever and creative person who equally as good at masking his power level
About two years later I’m still deeply contemplative about this one. Scorpy’s got a real talent in making comforting but such unambiguously personal art. To be who I am now, to truly live, I think I had to give up nearly everything. I’m not the same person I was and I’m not sure if it matters

gotta say inserting jigsaw into other random media is my favorite rtvs meme to date
thank you for the 3 total captions in the video. they really ass to the experience

I like too think this is how benrey experiences everything
it was scary to see a clown in this. but i was relieved when little bear finally severed the blood vessel to his heart

I think Scorpy’s too good for analog horror personally.
@@Crembaw you're just saying that he could do better than analogue horror, which would be even better
This was simultaneously cool, beautiful, chaotic, slightly eerie and inspiring all at the same time. I don't know how but it was.

The later half of this scared me in a good way
I love the "low-quality letsplay from 2013 with 27 views" vibe in the first couple minutes or so
