Thanks for having me on again man! :)
i love your vids hope your doing fine
Wait, were you the same person who worked on Secret of Evermore?
You're welcome
Yo jorge
You're welcome
Just so you and your veiwers are aware the internet archive is at risk of being shutdown and or restricted! We may lose tons of data from the past if that were to happen.
This ^ Most important comment on this video. As an IT professional, I can’t count how many times a day I use the archive for old drivers & manuals when fixing old pc issues, restoring old hard drives, etc. We simply cannot sit idly by & lose the most valuable resource on the internet. Its the digital Library of Alexandria
@@TheoryAugPleb
@@TheoryAug Womp womp.
Why is it at risk? What have I missed?
@@TheoryAugsmooth brain behavior.
And if several massive corporations have their way, you won’t have an Internet archive anymore to view. the whole thing makes me mental thinking that private corporations are trying to shut down basically what would be considered everyone’s virtual library. The Internet archive is an extremely important tool for all of us.
Instead of just talking about it, make sure you voice your anger to your local representatives
Won't be the first nor the last backup db to dissapear, mangatraders was the best example, when you prefer copyright aka capitalism over humanity this is the result 💁🏽
@@Ebanii don't agree, I just think that certain politicians don't want dirt dug up on them from the past, so they want to erase and rewrite history first by getting rid of internet archive
I don’t disagree. But what happened is poor leadership at the Internet Archive playing a game they had no chance of winning. Even people at IA or funding it didn’t agree with what they did during Covid. It was fucking moronic to pick that fight and jeopardize the site as a whole.
Fahrenheit 541 is a really good book on all of this ngl
the internet archive is in hot water right now...
what do you mean
what do you mean
what do I mean
@nuggetkindgudind3548 You’re able to pirate certain games and media using it and some of the bigger companies are trying to sue over it even tho they already have plenty money
@@hayden980 Actually that's simplifying it a little too much. Essentially what happened was the Internet archive runs a public digital library for free use by anyone who'd want to access it. The way it works is the archive will buy a book and then rent it out to one user at a time to be used for a limited time frame, while the book is with the user it can't be lent to another user until it is given back. In that way the Internet archive was operating in a similar way to a public library, just via a digital format. The problem arose when the Internet archive lifted the restriction on lending limits for some of the books in the library as a response to COVID-19, as people couldn't leave quarantine. The free spread of books became cause of concern for large book publishers which then sued the archive and won, though the Internet archive intends to appeal the case.
Sorry about the long winded post lol, just felt like I had to give a bit more context to this for anyone not in the know
fun fact! there is still a huge push in the gorillaz community to revive the plastic beach website. i know that in the official gorillaz discord server, the mods had gotten word to the band's management about taking steps to bring the website back. as of now, that has been sidelined but hope is not lost! it is possible we'll see a revival of plastic beach sometime in the future :)
Even just two seconds of Dreamscape by 009 Sound System was instantly recognizable...
This is what happens if your only mode of storage is digital. If your machine breaks down, or if solar flares take place... you lose everything (and by the way solar flares have occurred throughout Earth's history). I personally lost all of my photos from the early 2000s which were stored only on my computers and not printed. But I still have all my photos from earlier times taken with analog cameras in photo albums... even photos of my great-grandparents are still around in the albums.
Lol
Similarly, if your only mode of storage is physical, it's at risk due to oxidation and whatnot. This is why you should always keep at least two copies if possible, one physical and one digital.
Carbon, Jorge and Nick Crowley would be the dream team
Could add billy styler to it also
And Nexpo
Don’t forget nexpo
Then we got Nexpo, together they could probably make the biggest collab of the lost media genre.
@@supremelylargewaffle5858 And Mr.Ballen. Together, they'd make the world's most terrifying boy band.
EKT WAS FOUND
*ahem* NEARLY found. Still don't know the vocalist.
@@theokkali467 i thought vocalist was the Christopher Booth guy
@@bluex217 Christopher booth was a writer of the song, including another booth.
@@theokkali467 Ahh I see, so it wasn't Christopher or Phillip Booth. Chris made a post on his FB but who knows if he remembers the vocalist. That is actually almost 40 years ago
@@theokkali467we need to find the female vocalist in the song 😂
Gorillaz has a bunch of lost/unreleased media they actually planned and cancelled movies and tv shows as recent as 2020. A big reason why fans are especially interested in plastic beach media is because they did plan to release stuff but because they ran out of money a lot of things had to be cut. For example they originally planned to make a music video for every song in order to tell the story (every album has a storyline) but because they couldn’t they instead had Murdoc host a radio show where fans would get updates. The album itself wasn’t as successful as the previous and because of internal issues between the creators Gorillaz went on hiatus. I think that played a major role as to why plastic beach never got sea sides
A multi millionaire artist can't release their media because they "ran out of money"?? This millionaire should start a GoFundMe
being one of the people who discovered all the stuff about the Slender prototypes, so happy that somebody is finally talking about it.
The minecraft chapter is so dreamy and could be part of dying worlds
Classic virtual carbon narration
It's pretty crazy but I played one of the earliest versions of roblox, I can't remember the exact one but it must have been between 2005-2008. I absolutely don't have the files anymore though and I only ever played it once when looking for an online lego game.
Thank you for using my track 'Forgotten' 💙 didn't expect it to be right at the begining haha
Thank you!
my man says "in the early 2000s" and shows a desktop with a minecraft icon on it
Also says "late 2000's" and talks about
"Slender the 8 Pages"released in 2012. Lol
Well early 2000s makes sense since 2011 is pretty early still 88 more years to go give or take.
Now idk how that 1 year to 2012 took up so much of the century but I’m not a timeologist
@@shaneiles5672 Well, 2000's usually refers to the years between 2000 and 2009, 2011 and 2012 would be considered "Early 2010's"
12:58 oh god I really can’t hear the words grimace and shake in the same sentence normally anymore
I really love the editing and narration in this one, particularly in the Minecraft segment. Usually I'm not spooked by Minecraft horror stories, but the way you presented it is so eerie that it actually got me on the edge of my seat.
You deserve so much more attention man, you're on par with nexpo quality wise
Idk if Jorge’s original video is nostalgic yet since it’s not been ten years yet but only…9…and I was a freshman in college while a ton of you were…children….
God
Now this collab...
ITS LEGENDARY!
i love your videos so much, this might sound weird but i have trouble sleeping most nights, and these videos genuinely help to have in the background!’ the content is also always so well made i love the editing:3
Incredibly based of you to play "corner folk" at the start of the Roblox segment. Never expected to find AJCW's werk or even the _Monument Mythos_ soundtrack anywhere else but here we are.
What a great video!! Usually for lost media videos they’re presented as scary/ominous, but you made them really relaxing and pleasant, really cool!!
SAVE THE INTERNET ARCHIVE
wonderful nice to hear jorge again
Well he did recently collaborated with Sakura Stardust in a video about Japanese cryptids
@@Markiegee55 i think i have seen it, if not i will give it a go tomoro as its after 10 in scotland and i cant keep my eyes open lol thanks for the heads up
My god, you're on fire! Thanks and great timing, time to chill out with Virtual Carbon! :)
YOOOOOOOO I needed a good lost media video tonight
The old minecraft gameplay was so nostalgic. I completely forgot that they changed most of the textures
This gigachad uses sleep/meditation music for his background audio :L perfect choice this hits good with earbuds
Lets goooo new Virtual Carbon upload!
The atmosphere of your videos are brilliant. Melancholic, lonely, mysterious, and strangely comforting.
Great video, loved the format and storytelling, keep up the wonderful work VC!
I was literally about to Check blameitonjorge channel since I haven’t gotten many updates in a while and this just pops up after I subbed a hour ago 💯
I brought him back for u
You’re in luck, Blameitonjorge just uploaded a new video
@@LonelyGamer4 Hell yeah, thx much
@@VirtualCarbonThanks lol
@@tudoriaCool, I’m subbed to a number of channels but RUclips updates are horrible these days even with the bell.
Thank you for this video! Very inspiring for nostalgia content! You have given me a lot of ideas for my next videos!
Yo, interesting topic. Wouldn't you mind if i recommend? Can you please make more parts of "A journey through dying worlds" I really love that topic 🖤
Dying worlds in games and rabbit holes is also cool topics!
I will!
Congrats in getting to 125k! Last time I saw you you had 80k
The forbidden lands setting of the original shadow of the colossus captures this feeling really well 32:53
Love your videos man, your channel hits the spot!
amazing editing, well put together, and pleasant to listen to :). incredibly informative and well researched.
I love how they used Sneaker Pimps in the intro for an example clip. That brought me back. 👌
Glad to see you getting up there my man. Your content is great
I vividly remember the plastic beach dropping and the videos that coincides with the albums, so good
i'd seriously like to congratulate you on finding your niche and succeeding at it. you are an inspiration to me!
This is the collab we need 😎 what a good day to watch this on my bday
Thanks so much for using my track ‘Is there anybody there?’ during the Crazy Frog segment!
Super cool to be a part of this… super cool and spooky video too! 👻🩶💚
Thank you JHB!
Perfect, a new Virtual Carbon upload just before hittong the bed, dope as always!!💪
I immediately recognized the retrovex song. Great video!
Man this was such a cool vid especially sense I was really young or did not have internet access when some of these took place thanks for making a video about all of it!
thanks for using my music, love the video:)
love the music!
as a liminal space lover, seeing videos about anything like this makes me so happy
You have an absolutely pleasant voice and generally exude a special melancholic atmosphere in your videos (together with the sound). I love it. Let someone tell you this who has listened to thousands of podcasts and video essays and is very, very picky.
Your voice complements the videos so well.
Among these pieces of lost media I've encountered are various mods for EA NHL games of years gone by, and several pictures of players in Russia's Kontinental Hockey League from the late 2000s.
yooo im early, love ur content dude. saving this for my work day tomorrow
What an awesome collab!!!
I watch your channel now ae a newbie but man like i always Start crying watching these lost media vids....im a 1991 baby and this makes me feel good and just ...sad but happy....like i wish nothing changed like before.. everything was affordable and the brst we wanted and had was flip phones pre 2012 even ....😢😢
I Hate this modern cold world but wen i watch these vids i at least get help in getting to my old happy memories as a child..i love u wlln love u too son amir
This was a fascinating video as always! Though I will admit, this part toward the beginning made me wince:
0:22 “The majority of communication was still done through chatrooms!” *shows an IM program, not a chatroom, and makes no mention of forums*
Instant Messengers were not chatrooms. You could create group chats, but you had to be invited to those. Chatrooms were (and are) on things like IRC servers, and anyone can join them. Also, TONS of communication was done over forums! They still exist today, but are sadly less used due to the rise of social media. Which is a shame-there’d be a lot less internet drama if we stuck to forums, IMO.
It's insane when the slender chapter started, I could tell what it was going to be immediately based on the footstep sounds and the crickets. Haven't played that game in close to a decade probably but it's still seared into my mind
the internet archive or an archival resource is essientially for both historical and cultural purposes which is why companies endangering the internet archive is disconcerting.
30:51 i appreciate the 2kki music so much 🙏
the part about minecraft made me realize someone could make a really compelling minecraft arg. something with that liminal nostalgic horror vibe to it that those old versions have
you hit the spot like nexpo, much love
Ooohhhh baby!! God bless you! I was just searching for something to watch!!! Hahah tonight's gonna be amazing!!!❤️
I remember we had a WebTV and in like 1997 or 1998 we went to Conan O'Brien's website and there was a game called "if they had mated" and you picked 2 celebrity's and they're photos would be mixed together grotesquely looking and that's what they would look like if they had mated 😂
as someone who started playing roblox in 2008-9 ish, i wish i remembered it more 😭 but i had no idea it was lost
I wish I could figure out how much of my feeling towards old Minecraft is just nostalgia and how much of it was actually different. I sometimes look at opd Minecraft and almost feel like it was a completely different game. I think a large part of that is because of it starting as an indie game as well. Regardless, I miss the feeling the old game used to give me.
I LOVED the LifeSavers mini-golf game! That brings back so many good memories.
That game was awesome
Damn this upload had great timing. Just got off a 12 hr shift. Hell yeah.
Garfieldgames - closed over decade ago, hosted various puzzle/card/crossword games. Lost media AFAIK, not on Flashpoint, seen a few dcr files, but they didn't seem to work... I have personally recreated a few of them (by rules, not by appearance) in my pet C# project.
I think about the minecraft far lands OFTEN. It was one of my first encounters with that type of nearly liminal horror and it captivated me. I never made it to them in early minecraft, but I was so fascinated by them just existing out there was so disturbing to me.
37:40 That definitely isn't one word.
Man, I didn't get broadband until 2005, 2006. Such simpler times.
19:43 CRAZY CHEEBO! THE LEGEND HIMSELF IS NOW NOT OBSCURE
phenomenal video, yo! subscribed. :)
I can’t get over how this guy sounds like the weekend. Just imagining the weekend having a niche RUclips channel that covers internet oddities makes me chuckle
Have you played or looked into the game Interior Worlds? I feel like it's right up your alley and you'd make a great essay about it or including it....has an essence of liminality and dying worlds aspect
Not Jorge creeping me out with Gorillaz lost media 💀
I think I might have played some of the early versions of Roblox and Minecraft shown in this video. Some of the 3D Groove games also looked familiar. If I can get the hard drive of the old computer to work, it's possible I could help with the search for some of these games.
Hearing about Internet Archive being in trouble fills me with concern. It's where I pirate most classic anime and modern books. Luckily I've gotten several things downloaded before that'll be happening, if it even does.
"it's where I pirate". Yeah, that's the problem. It's not a library if you're just stealing.
Who remembers Zip-Zaps? The hot wheels size rc cars
*dark murky blue filter*
*ominous drone*
*muffled nyan cat*
*thanks to todays sponsor*
This was amazing thank you. I feel really inspired now. One day I hope to be working with you on a video ❤
Anyone remember Wildtangent games on WIndows XP home edition?
I remember playing some game demo of a top down game where you upgrade a mining hovercraft and reveal dark parts of the map seeking out resources and killing alien creatures.
I loved that game and wish I could play it today.
Edit: I found the game, it's called Dark Orbit 2001 and sadly despite downloading the files I can't get it to run on Windows 10.
So Marble Hornets came out 3 years before Slender the 8 Pages. Pretty sure that had waaaay more of an impact on Slender Man's fame than that terrible game.
This whole video called me old but the Minecraft and Slender sections made me actually FEEL old. 💀
My old account from 08 is still up but the earliest version I could possibly have has already been found.
Pay per view has soooooooo much
Lost media.
From sporting events to fight shows.
Adult too.
Yes!
The name sea-sides is pretty good, especially considering it looks like with the naming scheme Gorillaz was using, it wouldve just been named P-Sides
When I think of the early internet, I think of the internet from the mid to late 90s, or basically the time before RUclips.
such amazing vids.
Please make videos about the dark side of Club Penguin and the Craigslist Killer.
90% of the things from your childhood will be forgotten to time. It’s unfortunate but inevitable. Only the tip of the iceberg of what was most popular will be remembered.
And even then, a lot of it becomes distorted with personal bias and things misremembered… Like as much as 90s nostalgia is en vogue right now, people tend to forget the frosted hair, Jnco jeans, awful horror movies, and the terrible nu-metal takeover…
If anyone has seen dr Seuss’s midnight paintings can agree with me when I say the Minecraft Farlands give me heavy callbacks to some of his midnight works
surprised no ao lost media exists. That Orange was everywhere
3:05 Vinesauce Joel moment
I love old mine craft it was my first love
Amazing
It's odd that it wasn't mentioned that the Slender 8 Pages game was based on the Analogue Horror Marble Hornets, even straight up copied the pages from that ARG over into the game.
3d groove and postopia were fun games playing as a child
