/Zefrank1 : The Time You Have in Jelly Beans (02:44)

Some food for thought. We really do have a very limited time on this Earth, and then we expire. This video is necessary every now and again to help us refocus our time. Life is fickle, and what better way to illustrate that, then in jelly beans?

/TonyZhou : Jackie Chan - How to Do Action Comedy (09:04)

Jackie Chan Kung-fu comedy can do no wrong. There are not many Jackie Chan movies that I don't like, and Tony Zhou does an amazing job in analysing the cinematic style of the world famous stuntman / funny man.

This is for you photographers and creatives out there. Pretty cool blend of great imagery and a dope sound track to match. Plus it's New York themed.

"Gothic cathedrals (and IMAX theaters) provide instructive examples of the conscious use of artistic media - space, form, light, sounds - to produce religious-mystical, i.e. psychedelic, experiences." - Timothy Leary Alison Griffiths "The imax is the contemporary equivalent of what was once the gothic cathedral."

/Shotsofawe : The Revered Gaze (03:28)

Shots of Awe is definitely a YouTube channel you want to check out and subscribe to. It does exactly what it's name describes, provides short sub 5 minute videos of inspiration, motivation and thought provoking ideas. This episode in particular mentions the transcendent qualities of cinema and in particular the effect of Interstellar. I previously wrote about how I had an epiphany whilst watching Interstellar which strongly relates to this and you should check it out if you haven't already.

This is the 3rd part of our documentary series uncovering the process of making Scandinavian Damascus steel or pattern welded knife. Our team recently has joined one of the most skilled bladesmiths in the Baltic States - Chris. This movie is a dedication to him with an honor to his skills and experience. Special thanks to the band Foreign Fields from Nashville for allowing us to use their song as a soundtrack for our documentary. "It is a tragedy of the first magnitude that millions of people have ceased to use their hands as hands. Nature has bestowed upon us this great gift which is our hands. If the craze for machinery methods continues, it is highly likely that a time will come when we shall be so incapacitated and weak that we shall begin to curse ourselves for having forgotten the use of the living machines given to us by God."

There is something that makes this video so soothing and mesmerising. Maybe it is the lost art of trades and crafts to modern manufacturing that makes watching someone hand forge thing's so compelling to watch.
