The Strange Tale of Jeffersons Mammoth Cheese Oliver Lugg 2022-09-17 | The birth of America. Palaeontology. Oversized dairy products. Believe it or not, there's a connection. Even more bizarre, it shines a new light on the American mindset.Join me as I delve into Thomas Jefferson's mammoth obsession and a whole load of related topics. Too many related topics, probably. This video started with one fact but I kept digging my own rabbit hole of historical weirdness. Hopefully the end result is fun enough to justify its lack of direction.Join my Discord server to discuss this video and more: discord.gg/AVcU9w5gVWFollow me on Twitter for video updates: twitter.com/oliveriver_555------------------SOURCESThis video began with the story of Jefferson's mammoth obsession described in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals by Steve Brusatte.

The Mass Extinction Debates: A Science Communication Odyssey Oliver Lugg 2023-06-29 | In which the dinosaurs go extinct and 66 million years later people get angry about it.What killed the dinosaurs? Maybe you think you know.Many others thought they knew. They saw hundreds of years of scientific progress, shifting paradigms, and explosive arguments behind them, and decided they were at the end. The K-Pg extinction was settled. Then it exploded again. And again. And it kept exploding way more than any layperson today really appreciates, revealing more about science and its communication than you ever imagined.This is the story of the mass extinction debates.Join my Discord server to discuss this video and more:discord.gg/AVcU9w5gVWGet music to use in your videos with Epidemic Sound (use this referral link to support me):epidemicsound.com/referral/cnceagSpecial thanks to Alex Grab for the awesome rock arrangement of Fossils from Saint-Saens' Carnival of the Animals:youtube.com/watch?v=IIIgUV8hw7A&t=754sSpecial thanks to Dr Christopher Scotese for granting me permission to use maps from the PALEOMAP Project:youtube.com/@cscotese0:00 Intro5:17 Part I: The End28:40 Part II: The Record of the Rocks47:46 Part III: A Sudden Violent and Unusual Event1:18:29 Part IV: Exterminate All Dinosaurs With This One Weird Trick!1:46:42 Part V: Confessions of a YouTuber2:10:05 Credits----------------------LINKS MENTIONEDRecent review about the dinosaurs' extinction:onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/brv.12128Jefferson's mammoth cheese:youtube.com/watch?v=0RSR78RHm24Darren Naish on another palaeontological paradigm dust-up:web.archive.org/web/20120705194937/http:/blogs.scientificamerican.com/tetrapod-zoology/2012/07/03/world-must-ignore-reptileevolution-comMichael J.

Thrive Main Theme (Jazz Remix) Oliver Lugg 2022-07-02 | revolutionarygamesstudio.comThe upcoming Thrive release features a new art gallery feature, so I thought it was about time to realise my dream of creating a jazz remix of the Thrive Main Theme to act as light background music.

Hope you find it as infectiously rhythmic as I do.Art by Roseae.For my many subscribers who may be new to Thrive, see the above link for more information.

Thrive Jungle Combat Theme (Video Game Soundtrack) Oliver Lugg 2021-09-19 | revolutionarygamesstudio.comTwo Thrive themes in as many weeks? What is this madness?Again, this was one I had mostly lying around for some time. Patched it up a bit in the space of a few days and decided to release it before perfectionism got the better of me. This is likely the last Thrive theme for a short while at least as I have no others near completion.For my many subscribers who may be new to Thrive, see the above link for more information.IMAGE: The Jungle Adventure by Demon989 (commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_jungle_adventure.jpg).

FTL: Trolley Problems in Space Oliver Lugg 2021-08-17 | In which I commit war crimes to the sound of breezy chiptune.FTL: Faster Than Light may be known more for its pitch-perfect mechanics and design than its stance on morality, but in this video I'll be uncovering its secret ethical wisdom. What does FTL think is morally right? How can we find out? Why have I put so many references to long-dead British comedy shows in a video for a global audience?This one took far longer than it should have done, and honestly I'm not 100% happy with it.

His Dark Materials Main Theme (Remix) - Oliver Lugg Oliver Lugg 2021-01-26 | AKA how many crescendo fake-outs can I fit into four minutes?The BBC/HBO TV series adaptation of His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman has a pretty awesome main theme, so when its composer Lorne Balfe announced he was giving away the stems for free for remixing, I couldn't resist. More info and the stems here: twitter.com/Lornebalfe/status/1347204373785571330I ended up with a part ambient, part techno reworking of the main motifs in various ways. I even included the sound of the cave computer from the TV show. Overall I'm really quite happy with it, especially considering I made it in only four days and it's the first music I've completed in months (damn you tinnitus!).------------------------bokeh particles overlay | Sparkling bokeh particles | Wedding video background | Bokeh light leaksRoyalty free footagesyoutube.com/watch?v=3Poguy72eWY

(And what am I supposed to do?)It’s over every single day (And what am I supposed to do?)All the stars have gone out of your eyesAnd I’m left here to wonder whyYou ignited your fires upon your shoreAnd I’d breathe no more‘Cause I’d need no more‘Til then I’d never known what’s worth fighting forBut that’s all in the past nowIt’s gone for sureAnd now I knowThe only thing that’s trueIn cold ice skies becoming blackYour memory’s a fleeting crackYou’re gone I’ll never have you back----------------------------------------CREDITSCrickets At Night SoundMike Koenighttp://soundbible.com/365-Crickets-At-Night.htmlBest TV Static Animation with Sound EffectsYouToogleyoutube.com/watch?v=NYWTlVD4vDsflying accros the cloud green screen free royalty footageHDgreenstudioyoutube.com/watch?v=7foVWIoAg4A
Diplomacy: The Game of Knife Oliver Lugg 2020-06-13 | In which I attempt to rationalise my love of betraying my friends by insisting this board game is in fact a deep exploration of our lives.Join my Discord server to discuss this video and more:discord.gg/AVcU9w5gVWIt's taken a year, but I'm back with another video essay. Remember when I said I'd probably never make one again? I lied.Like ParaWorld, Diplomacy is a semi-niche game I've played for many years. Also like ParaWorld, I have a burning need to tell the world about it and all the ways in which it's phenomenal. This video is what came of it.Editing has improved in general, though I'm still annoyed at my own voice. Guess I'll have to live with it.If the world leaders playing Diplomacy scene makes you want to gouge your eyes out and pray to Cthulhu for an escape from this hell, I don't blame you.Reddit post on 2012 World Cup: reddit.com/r/boardgames/comments/3zx275/the_2012_webdiplomacy_world_cup_final_has_reachedMatthew Colville on Realpolitik: youtube.com/watch?v=HWt0AQWjhPg2012 World Cup Timelapse: youtube.com/watch?v=2oLlb5TndQs0:00 Intro3:27 What is Diplomacy?6:30 Part I: Particles of War17:23 Part II: Mind Games26:32 Part III: The Meaning of Knife35:00 Conclusions37:03 Credits----------------------FOOTAGE100 Years of History in 2 Minutespwnweryoutube.com/watch?v=MxC5a7QrstkBest TV Static Animation with Sound EffectsYouToogleyoutube.com/watch?v=NYWTlVD4vDsCauses of WW1: AlliancesMr Allsop History Clipsyoutube.com/watch?v=rYkFFOXJlW0Community: Conspiracy Theories and Interior DesignNBCimdb.com/title/tt1640874Cuban Crisis (1962)British Pathéyoutube.com/watch?v=VNW8IVIiXIQDiplomacy, Running the Game #40, Politics #3Matthew Colvilleyoutube.com/watch?v=HWt0AQWjhPgDiplomacy World Cup 2012kenneth gordonyoutube.com/watch?v=2oLlb5TndQsEurovision Song Contest 2019 - Grand FinalEurovision Song Contestyoutube.com/watch?v=Dsx4pVjUth0FlamesPixabaypexels.com/video/flames-856296Forrest GumpParamount Picturesimdb.com/title/tt0109830Golden Balls - £100,000: Complete End Round Pt2GoldenBollocksyoutube.com/watch?v=7FbkwrhW_0ILife in lifePhillip Bradburyyoutube.com/watch?v=xP5-iIeKXE8Paradox Interactive's Diplomacy (Full Austria Stream)DiploStratsyoutube.com/watch?v=KtaVLVrZ0Gw"Remain Indoors" emergency broadcast – BBC ComedyBBCyoutube.com/watch?v=wnd1jKcfBREThe Start of WW1 | Frightful First World WarHorrible Historiesyoutube.com/watch?v=oEvuMhP2CuATsar Bomba DetonationTsar bombayoutube.com/watch?v=BBNhYOmEgy0VHS Rewind Effect - 4K Green screen FREE high quality effectsANFX // Free Media!youtube.com/watch?v=Hx1GCt28he0WDC Recap 3: Fall 1901DanceScholaryoutube.com/watch?v=2QZQoWjy77QWorld War One – Footagekilltronyoutube.com/watch?v=ZVDUXPB_sTs----------------------MUSICCarmina Burana: O FortunaCarl OrffIt's a Long, Long Way to TipperaryColdstream GuardsIt's a Long Way to TipperaryJohn McCormackAmazing Plan Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensecreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0Monkeys Spinning Monkeys Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensecreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0Onion Capers Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensecreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0Penumbra Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensecreativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0X-Files ThemeMark SnowBigger Than UsMichael RiceLa VendaMikiThese Constants Into MorningOliver LuggVictoria II SoundtrackParadox InteractiveBrain DamagePink FloydSisterS!stersGod Save the QueenTraditionalState Anthem of the Soviet UnionTraditional----------------------ARTICLESventurebeat.com/2020/06/10/deepmind-hopes-to-teach-ai-to-cooperate-by-playing-diplomacyhttp://www.diplomacy-archive.com/resources/calhamer/militaryintelligence.htmreddit.com/r/boardgames/comments/3zx275/the_2012_webdiplomacy_world_cup_final_has_reachedeurovision.tv/story/eurovision-2020-in-rotterdam-is-cancelledlesswrong.com/posts/jkf2YjuH8Z2E7hKBA/diplomacy-as-a-game-theory-laboratoryhttp://www.diplomacy-archive.com/resources/strategy/articles/more_about_convoys.htmboardgamegeek.com/thread/386460/diplomacy-classroom-massive-report-pics-video-reflwebdiplomacy.net/datc.phphttp://uk.diplom.org/pouch/Zine/F2007R/Burton/statistician3.htm

Amber of the Moment (Official Video) - Oliver Lugg Oliver Lugg 2019-12-19 | "Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why." - Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse FivePre-order the album: oliverlugg.bandcamp.com/album/amber-of-the-momentBandcamp: oliverlugg.bandcamp.comSpotify: open.spotify.com/artist/3bcH8U87S26UOuPDd8rfod?si=nr3jw5vfReyb-Bl7_jQZtwThe second single from the album of the same name, Amber of the Moment is my attempt to auto-tune myself into a song that doesn't cover it up with zany weirdness (sorry, T.R.O.Y.) and instead tries something a bit more emotional and sincere. The vocals are perhaps a bit broken in places, but I'm very happy with everything else.Apologies if the video makes you dizzy. I shot it on a phone and had no idea it would come out so blurry and wobbly.My aim is to spend the Christmas holidays working on a load more songs, so expect the next single early in the new year. Meanwhile, the album goes up for pre-order with this song, so head on over to my Bandcamp to pick it up.Happy holidays everyone!

Hmm.For the first time ever (ish), I've released a song where I'm actually singing. Auto-tune is a godsend. And it's far and away the weirdest thing I've ever made to boot, video and all.What do the lyrics even mean? I'll let you work it out.If it's at all possible, enjoy.-------------------------------------------ROYALTY-FREE FOOTAGE USED:TV video Noise 2 - Royalty Free effect video Footage VFXAmitai Angoryoutube.com/watch?v=9_Zku1HxnWQTV Static VHS Recorder Overlay - 3D Colorfreestockfootagearchive.comyoutube.com/watch?v=N0OPOsN3kA84K Film Grain Overlay 32mm - 16mm - 8mmCreative Filmyoutube.com/watch?v=OBjPp2JVZrcBest TV Static Animation with Sound EffectsYouToogleyoutube.com/watch?v=NYWTlVD4vDsOutrun Grid Animation Loop - Creative CommonsRoyaltyFreeTubeyoutube.com/watch?v=pvomDfQmhWQ
