Three videos a week
Curious things, explained
Society, behaviour and science, taken apart in 16-bit. Fresh angles on things you thought you already understood — no filler, no cliffhangers, sources on screen.

What this is
A smart friend explaining something properly. Conversational and accessible, with real intellectual authority — not academic, not silly, never a hype machine.
Pixels are the point
The name is the identity. Every video is illustrated in 16-bit pixel art, in colour or black and white. If an illustration would still make sense with the audio muted, it is doing its job. If it only decorates, it gets cut.
Numbers carry a source
A statistic without a citation does not ship. Every claim in every video is written up on its own page, including what was hedged, what was cut before the script was drafted, and which sources were refused.
No bait, ever
No fake urgency, no shock typography, no countdown teases, no artificial cliffhangers. The opener states the surprise directly, and the video spends the rest of its time earning it.
Six things we dig into
Every video belongs to exactly one of these. The colour is not decoration — it tells you which pillar you are standing in.
How the physical world actually behaves, including the parts still being argued about.
The rules nobody wrote down, and what happens when enough people follow them.
Why people do the thing, measured rather than guessed at.
Small strange facts that turn out to explain something much larger.
What happened, why it is told wrong, and who benefits from the wrong version.
Queues, networks, incentives — the machinery running underneath everyday life.
One more?
New videos three times a week. Subscribing is the whole call to action — there is no newsletter to sign up for and nothing to buy.
