Hey my name's Michael and your watching the DONG channel here on Youtube.
I have been traveling the country with Brain Candy live. It has been amazing. I've met hundreds of you
every night and it makes me realize how much you all carrotmuseum.co.uk/carrotcolours.
A crunchy DONG, something you can do online now guys.
Put your hands in the air and Flag Waver like ya just don’t care.
Cuz this site is a lot of fun.
You can either upload a file or paste a URL of an image and watch it flow in the wind.
There are a few factors to change up like whether the wind is on or off.
You can even choose where it waves from.
Hey look at my DONG flag flapping around.
What a beauty.
It looks good waving from the right, left, top, and Bottom…
North Carolina, Netherlands, and Netherlands Antilles.
These are the three places in the world called Bottom. Us.geotargit.com gives you the chance
to see locations in the world that share a common city name.
Where are you from?
I’m going to assume you're from Planken, Liechtenstein because it has a whopping population of less than
500 people.
Oh look there are four places in the world named Planken.
Two in Belgium, one in Liechtenstein, and one in Germany, which of course is not near the North
or South Pole. Those poor poles get treated so poorly by the Mercator projection.
But on Mercator Extreme, you can give them better treatment.
You can avoid cutting off thousands of miles short of the poles which is the case in normal Mercator
projections, by using this map to display the infinite magnitudinal distortion as you look
further away from the equator.
If you write in the coordinates of the South Pole this feature of the map is kind of...well it's not great
because it’s difficult to detect distortion when looking at an abyss of ice.
However, if you plug in somewhere like Nairobi, Kenya this distortion becomes much more evident.
Look at the sizes of the houses and buildings closer to the equator, and now look at them
closer to your chosen location.
These are some big buildings.
In fact even bigger than spain...but of course not in real life. That's just an effect of the map's distortion.
Zoom in and then out to see the distorted poles relative to the more accurately sized
objects close to the equator.
Now let’s roll this map back into a globe
For 2050.earth which actually looks nothing like the map we just saw.
This site has collected predictions from artists, scientists, and more, and consolidated them
here.
Click on the yellow hexagons to see where cities, objects, and events of the future
are visualized by someone.
White hexagons only show predictions.
For example if you click on this one you can see a prediction that in 2040 there will be
a large amount of new micro-satellites travelling through our solar system.
My prediction is that in the next few seconds you will go to
Spectrum Analyzer which is an interesting way to see harmonics and frequency intensities.
You can select one of these sounds to see it at work.
Now, look at the violin.
You can see that for each fundamental frequency there are many harmonics as represented by
these brighter areas.
The darker colors are indicative of lower decibel frequencies and are more difficult
for your ears to detect.
Other sounds have fewer harmonics like whistling.
You can upload your own sounds as well but in order to accurately read the spectrogram
you’ll need an eye for color so go to
Pickr, a difficult game where you have to select the square that is a different color
from the rest.
Starting at level one can lull you into a false sense of security but don’t get too
comfortable because as it goes it gets nearly impossible to distinguish.
But if this was easy for you than you’d probably be a great painter.
So check out fluid paint.
This is just like any other painting site.
WRONG!
The site emulates the texture of real paint using a variety of factors.
Lower quality paint makes it look all gloopy.
And look what happens when you set it to low fluidity versus high fluidity.
You can change the bristle count as well as color.
If your painting doesn’t look like mine, well that’s just because you are as unique as
the robot you choose on
Robo boogie.
Your originality doesn’t stop there because you can make him dance however you’d like.
I’m gonna make his head move left to right more powerfully and have his left arm swing
around like this.
Why not have him thrust his hips around too. Excellent!
Now Robo Boogie is a little known DONG but if you want to
visualize larger DONGs go to Icons of the Web.
Here you can type in the URL of websites and see how popular they are by their size.
Links to all DONGs can be found in the description down below.
Please subscribe for more DONGs and as always, thanks for watching.
