Alone At The Enrichment Center 4 | Liminal/Elegiac Portal Compilation [Part 4]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- An elegiac/weirdcore/dreamcore/traumacore/liminal image compilation of Aperture Science as it exists in Portal 1.
It’s been years. Aperture has gone silent. Not fully silent, but just quiet enough to hear all the things moving that cant move they dont move theyre moving now. help me. Where is this coming from what are the shadows all around me. Beauty emerges amongst the chaos where the structure of the facility goes so thin it bleeds in on itself. What will I be when I wake up
[Content warning for blood and disturbing images that may invoke various visual phobias]
Full Series: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 1: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 2: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Part 3: • Alone At The Enrichmen...
Most images are my original work, additional images provided by Ossy Flawol, Konclan, Soulmoose, and Adakam
Original concept by Allison Ghost and Soulmoose
I feel like this is how rattmann saw aperture
I’d like to think so too
makes sense
Right! He was also schizophren
Damn nigga you're on a roll
4:02 rus ой кажется что теория была правдой eng Oh it seems that the theory was true
I love the look of the chambers.
Hey Hey Hey, there's the man himself.
Might be worth a mention that users with trypophobia and traumatophobia/hemophobia should look out. This one has some imagery that some users may find shocking.
Added a content warning to the description
I think they are supposed to be shocking though
ah yes
that's the point...
"I remember them coming into the building and switching on the machine. When I heard the familiar mechanical wiring coming from the discs, My heart started pounding. When they left, I returned to my office shaking, knowing that this could bring the whole company down. In the end, it wasn't that ai that took down Aperture, it was another."
what is this story
we
have reached
the outer edge
I like to imagine that all Parts of this series are just normal things seen by an Aperture science employee [Not Rattman] slowly going insane not too long after GLaDOS killing (almost) everyone. All of the normal things he saw while he worked there only become more decayed and broken as time goes on. He starts imagining/hallucinating escaping the facility but can't really make it look convincing, hence why in Part 3 there was Aperture equipment in areas that looked like the outside world.
Thanks for giving me ideas for the game I'll *probably* make dedicated to this topic
@@yaroslavm.4061 please make a mod like that
This comment may be useful for People watching this Video on Mobile.
This comment contains notes of *almost* all the details you may have missed.
This comment is currently unfinished, and will be continued later on.
0:00 - Insertion of the first tape, followed with the following message saying:
" *_This Tape has been intercepted by the Michigan State Office of Surface Mining and the Abnormal Data Inspection Committee to be declassified for private analysis._* "
0:13 - Several rooms stacked on top of each other, with seemingly no ceiling nor floor, whilst two screens display a happy expression and **HELP** written upside-down further up the connected rooms.
0:34 - A slightly opened Door leading to a dark area behind it.
You can see some humanoid Individual through the gap standing right behind the Testchamber Door.
0:52 - A multitude of arrows pointing upwards are drawn on the white concrete walls, and a drawing of a cube with wings is displayed at the base structure of the sphere dispenser with **HE** written right beneath it.
1:01 - It appears that part of the testchamber seems to duplicate itself and bend downwards the further it goes, creating a somewhat interesting visual experience.
And if I am seeing this right, the Floor-Button appears to be coloUred blue instead of red.
1:23 - Dozens of doors cover the walls, while some walls appear to have writtings on them repeating " *_INTERNAL ERROR PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER_* " over and over again.
A multitude of clipboards can be seen at the floor surrounding the Pedestal Button, which appears to have a red dial-up telephone attached at the top of it.
There also seems to be a Dropper being lifted up on the right side & all the turrets lack their eye.
1:31 - The screen fades away back to the blackspace after wich a text is displayed, saying " *_We have come a long way. What follows are (the horrors I have) documented as I travel (past the threshold and my body becomes part of) the landscape._* " then fades away.
1:46 - We are brought to a Menu Screen, where we can see the Relaxation Chamber with landscape painted on the walls and the floor which has been replaced by grass.
It appears that there is a slightly visible image of the Relaxation Vault on top of the very visible Relaxation Vault, slightly rotated.
The Clock inside the Vault appears to have the Cake Signage repeated four times in it, whilst the Clock outside in the void seems to display black instead.
There is also a Signage displaying **00** , a Testchamber-Door and _something else_ floating in the black void.
1:55 - The Video glitches out, revealing more about the Menu Screen.
The Title now displays *_Portal Dream_* and the position of the Menu itself appears to be rotating around the Vault, presenting the Relaxation Room and the Objects outside of it to be viewed at different angles.
1:57 - A fuzzy image of a room filled with several Relaxation Rooms and Cameras glaring directly at you can be seen.
2:00 - Yet again, we see a Relaxation Room, but this time it is seen from inside the beginning of the Portal Testing Track.
It appears that numberous objects and some Textures appear to turn almost completely black, and the hanging light is seemingly floating mid-air as there is no cable to be seen attachted to it.
2:04 - the feed glitches out yet again, but nothing else happens as far as I can tell.
2:14 - It appears to be the Beta version of the GLaDOS Battle, with a lot of basic brush work and little to no texturing.
2:29 - A scene from a Testsubject just getting out of the Relaxation Bed, hands and fingers streched as the clock appears to start its count-down.
It should be noted that the Portal-Emitters have been replaced by basic brushwork. (Correct me if I am wrong, those are the Beta Portal Emitters, right?)
The Vision gradually begins to become very confusing and disorienting, making it partially hard to focus on anything.
2:44 - The Texture of both the Screen of the Clock and that of the Signage turn into the red Text repeating the same thing over and over, while the hands seemingly sustained heavy damage or deterioration of sorts.
2:50 - We now see a bright image slowly blinding us less and less, whilst we start to see the outside parking lot of Aperture Science through the Windows and hear the chirping of a bird nearby.
3:03 - For a few frames, all we can make out is a Signage displaying **22** .
3:04 - We are then brought to some sort of BTS of the Facility. (Which looks very welcoming.)
Towards the end of the feed, two shadows appear on-screen, seemingly sitting on the bench below.
3:08 - Hey I regonize this mod! (It is called *_Mind Escape_* if anyone is wondering.)
3:16 - The Doll is now on the shelf.
3:18 - Standing on top of a Floor-Button, we see some handprints and a hand-written **Over Here** Message on the Floor.
There's also some red line glowing past the button. Could that be the Laser of a Turret?
3:26 - We now find ourselves at one of the BTS Areas with an open Door leading to a missing texture dimension, and the Logo of Aperture Science being displayed reversed.
?:?? - *_boy I'm tired, I'll probably continue this later_*
MGD you good?
@@lambdalabs7807
Yes
am good
@@MrGermandeutsch | You sure?
@@lambdalabs7807
Yep.
I'm pretty sure.
@@MrGermandeutsch | If you say so..
are you going to make any more of these? these are so unique and they brought something innovative to portal and the game definitely needed something to keep it fresh. I appreciate these on an almost poetic level, they brought a new flavour to the portal aesthetic that I think was there all along, but it needed someone to shove it in the right direction and it's honestly perfect. thank you.
thank for for such elegant praise! I have been thinking of how to make a 5th video, and collecting some images for it, but i dont have quite enough resources for it at this time. Maybe sometime another will be made!
I am very glad that they are loved, as many of these took a lot of time and careful editing to capture just the right feeling
@@AllisonGhost Will there be a return?
Crowded in the enrichment center!
@@AllisonGhost If you're still collecting images, might I recommend the observation room in the scrapped out of bounds area of Chamber 17 that still uses HL2 assets? It's a strange sight.
@@Awesomeness-iz3dh also the other rooms there are just totally empty, not even a door
cam is a cutie
I always really like this series, but I must ask you, where do you obtain such... imagery?
CamBen either makes them herself, or people (like me) have contributed them to her! It’s mostly only a group of people she trusts who gives her some images :)
I was under the impression that this was kindly donated by the Michigan State Office of Surface Mining and Abnormal Data Committee for proof of concept
👁
@@OssyFlawol I kind of suspected that, but i've also seen pictures taken from mods such as portal pro and portal epic edition.
@@Portal2Player those are rare exceptions that we do sometimes for images that fit the vibe, also, I’m the guy who made PEE, so :D
can we get a game where its just all of chambers and you just run around? No solving just pure dreamcore
There's actually a map for portal 1 released recently that's inspired by these types of videos. It's called "Isolophobia", you can find it on moddb.
Is this The Enrichment Center in 2021?
An abandoned, scary laboratory filled with unknown hauntings and unknown ghosts and entities?
perhaps
I really wanna see a mod like this. I know you’re working on Valhalla which is similar, but there’s something about the first Portal in particular which is perfect for this nightmarish stuff. I also imagine Valhalla would be a different kind of horror than this but I might be wrong.
Is there somewhere on the internet where I can find more of these unnatural dreamcore-esque liminal Portal Chambers or did you make all of these yourself?
These are a product of images that I and my close friends have procured for these videos
@@AllisonGhost Cool. It's been a while since I've seen images that evoked that weird feeling when looking at liminal space images I haven't felt since the original Backrooms image and the images being Portal related gives them an uneasy nostalgic feeling to them that I've never felt as strong as in those images of oddly familiar places.
As a Portal fan and also Liminal Space/Dreamcore fan, your work is genius and amazing.
While watching the video I came up with the idea that it would probably look scary if the camera was pointed at a wall as if the player was walking against it. And I thought with a bit of editing it would look scary because you would not know what is behind you...then this scene came: 3:46
Needless to say I was shocked.
The OFF music *chef kiss*
This is what happens when you eat those packets that say Do Not Eat.
5:22 The things with the orange eyes that are sitting on this black...wall thingy. Aren't those these unused things that roll around as seen in Karen Prell's presentation
bruh i legit don't understand why i find this weirdly nostalgic, or like i've seen it before.
>_>
that's the video's intended purpose. it's trying to make you feel this way
This is so good and simple but leaves me with so many questions.
What happened to Aperture? Why is GLaDOS absent? Who are all of the shadow people? Who's going into the facility? Are they from the HL/Portal world or from OUR world? What in the world is going on? And most importantly, what happened in test chamber 22? There's only 19 chambers in Portal 1, and we see the sign for this 22nd chamber a few times now, so it feels important.
And that, that right there is amazing for a video slideshow of different images.
Please, do more things like this, i love thinking like Portal is a horror game.
i knew it
The end might be close
The start might be far
You never know
What's waiting you next
The end, might, be close.
It's my own personal headcanon that these are the dreams that Chell was having while in indefinite slumber.
08:56 Oh ok, this is great!
I wonder how many of those are actual maps.
I can tell which ones are fake, but there are some that looks really like they were ingame.
i made quite a few new or edited maps for this whole series. a lot of the ones that appear fake are still taken ingame as a custom map, and edited in a similar fashion as the others
art.
5:23 I know what that background sound is from
Same here!
i have Autophobia, the fear of being alone, and this just hones in on it
What's the Self Esteem Fund Remix you used? I dig it!
It's a version of the original track I edited in FL studio specifically for that clip!
@@AllisonGhost Any chance you can upload it on RUclips and send the link?
@@MauricioJara i will consider it!
just looking down and just see something whitened in some kind black marker that says "over here" but then you realized its not a marker its some kind of liquid that you never seen before and at the last second you realized that you see 2 glowing eyes in the dark. (at 3:19 in the video)
looks like something that could appear in a portal ARG
nothing could prepare me for 4:01
How did you make these images?
MRI of he's dreams, that's really simple
Some good sounds here.
Your "Alone At Enrichment Center" series really remind me of an old flash site "Hospital Apoka" (here is a video, since flash is dead now ruclips.net/video/s7L-vtdzPdc/видео.html Sadly scenes are skipped, A LOT is not shown.). Really really missed those "this is haunting but I can relate" vibes. Thanks for keeping that feeling alive.
1:36 We have come a long way. What follows are there horrors I have documented as I travel past the threshold and my body becomes part of the landscape.
1:54 this would be such a good starting room for a portal mod/portal 3
I agree!!
Have I ever introduced you to narbacular drop?
thank you for making these
Note: this person also made the shit taker
It's alright, I didn't feel like sleeping tonight anyway.
Oh no, my stomach hurts again. (Girl how do you do this?)
these vids are crack
0:53 isn't this music from the office prank (chapter 3 nightmare)?
4:59 (this part goes like INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR INTERNAL ERROR)
I accept
I think this is the weakest entry in my personal opinion. It has some good moments, but most of it is choked by an overwhelming amount of visual effects and noise. I do love the series overall, though.
Was that Amygdala's Ragdoll from Ghost and Pals??? 5:24
It even had the holes.
shouldn't have dipped my portal gun in water
Id love to make a portal mod with multi dimensional time travel and have one of the bad endings be 1:50
When the neurotoxin really starts to kick in
youre alone at the enrichment center but youre not
Portal was the original liminal spaces
i really need to see chamber 22s lore
What was aperture cooking?
Looks like aperture
is hunted
alone at the enrichment center 5 when?
I should make something like this with my thousands of liminal Source screenshots. Take any map pack, there's always inbetween moments like this...
Am I the only one who want to see all 4 parts of this turn into some kind of portal 1 or 2 horror game because it would be scary
Allison ghost if you do see this, this series would make a perfect portal 2 horror mod, as it put the creepy nest like how Error (*another portal horror mod*) like the game should not be like this but you still want to play it
Wait was that a teaser for a mod at 1:56
0:48 looks like vsauce
Hey Alison, maybe you should do a follow up on this series with a video that highlights the mods or resources used in this series. This would be pretty good for those wanting to see these environments for themself
most of them are custom maps i made for the video, a few are from portal epic edition, a few others are from other assorted portal mods.
4:01, nice use of the OFF soundtrack, it always did a great job of being weird
Thanks, I haven't played it myself but bestie sent me a few tracks and I loved them so had to use em lol
I really want to see that as portal budget mappack for portal 1. Especially with raytracing to make this a bit surreal
5:54 THE CUBE
The first and second parts were the best. In the third and fourth parts, the atmosphere is already lost.
Great!
Today im nott gonna slepp™️
what's the song at 0:50?
gives off vibes similar to a webseries i've seen before
the one right on that timestamp is from the hl1/hl2 soundtrack, and the one after is from the OFF soundtrack
@@AllisonGhost By the second one I presume you mean the one at 0:53 I searched through the OFF soundtrack and cant seem to find it anywhere, which track is it from exactly since im confused lol
neat
i'd like to see a mod based off of these videos
