I cannot tell if you're a girl or a guy or something else, and honestly, that's so real.
the secret esotheric third option.........
Programmer.
Aren't they a sandpond?
well you gotta give the 3d modelers credit, it's hard to work out from a disembodied voice.
"Oh no, they're hot!" I mean what? haha
I love the talking into the headphone jack at the start like it’s a microphone. I have no idea why but my brain just finds it hilarious.
And with a microphone stand in-frame at the same time.
Love it!!!❤
lmao, a detail that I wouldn't have noticed.
a perfect joke about the current "meta" of yt, where everyone talks to a mic they have in their hand ^^
Luke obvious lives in December 2026
Can we get a wellness check on Toad? He's been sleeping for nearly a year.
Well... the music was not loud enough to wake him up... maby he has something serious...
@@red_rassmueller1716 maybe he died
actually only 3 months based on last vid's upload schedule
@@DuringDark actually watch those videos and then come back. I am not making the joke you think I am making.

I’m beginning to notice that bird might have a bit of a difficult time to not make music, considering how musical these arrows seem to be.
its berd to you
@@corydonk very foolish of me 😔
I shall keep this in mind if I ever refer to berd in the future.
✨sonification✨ ^_^
what a time of my life to have a video repeat "come out" at me at 200bpm
Rooting for you
very lucky that I have a life and family where being able to come out again (and again) sounds great. I actually haven't come out to many people yet because I'm waiting to have conspicuous boobs to surprise people with but god if I got the same kick every time I'd become a gender reveal junkie
“This video will have no music”
*proceeds to bust it down with the most Fire release of 2024*
Berd is really berding in this episode.
Addendum: I had not finished the video when I made this comment. Berd please come back
This is an arrow. It might not look like it, but click on it and watch it play. It's the arrow of a new TodePond video!
I love how this series started as a semi-tutorial for creating a Cellular Automata, and now has devolved into "How many ways can I destroy reality with seemingly simple mechanics" while also bringing us a heartfelt story in the background.
My immediate question is if these arrows are turring complete... In which case this would seem to be a musical esoteric programming language
turing completeness isn't necessary for a language, often it's preferable to not have it
no more halting problems, we have enough
Do the three characters represent particular ways of engaging with subjects?
Berd always seems enthusiastic but clumsy, excited to create but ignorant of existing work, not very proficient, careless of best practices, and resentful of restrictions.
Bot(s) seem very knowledgeable, but stiflingly critical. They rain down comments on the animals' mistakes, constantly put Tode and Berd in boxes, and disappear into endless introspection when trying to define themselves.
Does Tode represent a synthesis between the two, someone patient and disciplined enough to learn but still motivated enough to create?
What does it mean then that they vanished... only Tode is still there, but asleep...
@@red_rassmueller1716 I'm not totally confident in Defining everything in a rigid way, but I think that:
Tode falling asleep after Spellular Automata may indicate that the current sand projects have reached a sort of local maxima and that Tode requires a pause to "dream up" something new.
Bot disappearing in Define Define may represent the decision to further broaden the Sandpond Saga with a series of videos and experiments, like Arrows, that are even further afield than normal.
These videos genuinely make me so happy and giddy, your art fills a connection between art and programming that is sincerely appreciated
Human body Berd is beyond cursed
Dude. This did not disappoint this is insane, as educational as it is existential you should be super happy with this project
This is an arrow of convolution. When an arrow it connects to fires, that arrow fires through the arrow it's connected to. Set up parallel worlds and travel through auditory dimensions.
babe wake up TodePond uploaded
I just love the vibe that these videos have, and I still don't know why not more people are subscribed.
Toad is still asleep and now Berd is MISSING??
uh oh
So... we have to wait for Tode to wake up... until then... no Video??
seeing other enbies both on the internet and irl makes me so happy!!
also your projects and videos are absolutely incredible, i’d love a more technical video that explains the code behind one of your projects
Enby programmers and an interest in art rise up!
represent!!!
These videos are simultaneously good showcases for these programs/projects, fun to watch, and really well coordinated when it comes to the parts where your voiceover is being affected by these programs/projects. Great job!
Edit: I also noticed that the music that berd made is credited as Pigen Palace. I didn't expect to see the framing device applied to the credits too.
New video every hour you say? Guess I will wait approximately 30 minutes or so
Let's hope it doesn't go to 3 picoseconds, that might be a bit too extreme!
This has exactly the same energy as the future of coding podcast, and I love that.
i wonder why that is
@@TodePond I wonder indeed.
Theres a LU PODCAST?!?!!
@@neftalydotcom futureofcoding.org/episodes/064.html i appear partway through that one
also i put out a weekly podcast on my patreon
When I was little, once a year we would drive 10 hours to stay a for a few days at my grandparents' place.
In the mornings, I would wait quietly until my grampa would wake up. He was always up before the others, and the mornings were when we would spend time together, just the two of us.
He would let me put on his shaving cream (and let me make a handprint on the mirror), and while he has shaving, we would play a game.
"Marco! What are the rules?"
"Hmmmm.... no singing!"
"No singing???" He pauses for a moment, and begins to hum
"No humming!"
He pauses another moment, then starts whistling
"No whistling!" and by now I'm giggling like a maniac.
Another pause, and he starts shuffling a little back and forth
"No dancing!"
He makes "ooh ooh aah aah" noises.
"No making monkey sounds!"
And so on. Every morning the rules were different. It's a miracle he never cut himself with the razor.
...
Grampa? Grampa, you can bring the singing, humming, whistling, dancing, and monkey noises back. Grampa?
Already the best video on youtube
The extesentialism is a great mix with the programming and storytelling and cinematography and oh my GOD I LOVE IT SO MUCH!
I was not expecting a cutie in a frog hoodie today
YES FINALLY HOLY SHIT DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING
IKR IM NOT EVEN KIDDING I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A VIDEO SO LONG MAN IT IS MY DYING WISH .. / .... .- ...- . / -... . . -. / .-- .- .. - .. -. --. / ... --- / .-.. --- -. --. / .... --- .-.. -.--
The infinity arrow hits different. now it's an actual ToadVerse
Really hyped for the new video in 10 minutes
I was expecting something good with this one.
I was not disappointed
I love this channel so much. For me, it is a way to escape from all the stress I experience. This is just a cosy place to chill, turn off your brain for once and enjoy the *not* music.
Jean Baudrillard would loose his fucking mind.
I was not expecting something this god Damb high quality from every aspect.
This is the weirdest product explainer I've ever seen. I like it.
- sand in sand in sand
- sands of time
"There will be no music".
Blasts my ears with Tech House, and I loved it.
I don't have any words other than wow, this is a level of immersion I was not prepared for... Subbed
Well that's a good way to make myself cry...
I loved it!
Everything about this is just genius. The best mix of art, programming, and videography I've ever seen.
I love how the sandpond saga has nothing to do with sand anymore
sandpond saga also has nothing to do with pond anymore so i guess we are left with just "saga" now?
Berd woz here
You told me there would be no music but then you played music during the intro. I'm glad you didn't wake up tode. 🐸 Berd also likes music though.
This is how death is going to look like: arrows everywhere in arrows
Great video! Tho, question: since bird is now gone in the arrow void, bot is stuck grabbing itself, and frog is still asleep, who's gonna make the next video?
uh oh... hmmm
Dont tell me... don't tell me... it's... the end of it😢😢😢😢😢
> we have to go back
Waiting for the next video in 45 minutes
new video every hour indeed
Bar none the best devlog series ever made. I think this is your magnum opus
I love how a series about creating a voxel simulator has evolved into this beautiful fever dream.
Can't wait for the next video in an hour.
Why does berd have smooth moves though like dang
I don't remember why I subscribed to this channel or what type of channel it is, and now I'm scared of checking the videos to collapse the unknown possibility space.
All your videos are art, and this one its one of your best one. Congrats!! 👏👏
I like the IRL shots you put in your videos. The meadow in this one was especially nice, I haven't seen a proper meadow since I was a kid which is a shame. I'm finally finished going through your backlog which was great fun so this is my comment because UA-camrs seem to like them. Thanks for the stuff :)
So youre telling me that I need to come out to ALL the worlds? Sheesh I thought only one world needed to know I was gay...
I had already watched demos of this on the talks channel but also on the Mastodon.
But it's nice to finally discover a more advanced version (I loved the concept of color and auto mutation).
In short, I really missed the videos and thank you.
Oh boy, new video every hour? Heck yes!
I don't know nor understand what I am watching. And this is exactly why I am subscribed.
Yay, another episode of my favorite fever dream.
to be frank, im not sure what i have watched, but i liked it
I agree Frank
first
❤❤❤
I'm eating homemade stew and watching the new TodePond video? let's goooooooo 🔥🔥🔥
Allowing the zoom-in into arrows seems like a clever configuration option but honestly I haven't deduced what it's for. If we try to automate a creation arrow, there's a missing parameter, namely where to put the new creation... but putting things inside the creation arrow seems like a way of telling it what to create, not telling it where to place stuff.
it's cos it's fun
I couldn't figure out how the subsets and supersets fit into the picture either. Do they subdivide a beat? Things got a little hazy around that point.
yeah will explore that more in a future video
Proper job! I do love a good youtube programmer/philosopher/general thinky person going down some crazy rabbit hole of thought. It happens surprisingly often, but you are certainly among the best
Just stumbled across your channel after seeing a video about Dreamberd and I'm addicted. Just wanted to let you know I think your videos and coding projects are amazing, looking forward to seeing what you create next!
I like that part when they go "berd"
This is definitely my favourite youtube channel
This is somehow the third... project? programing language? I have heard of in the last week that involves time travel.
Ooh were the other two interesting?
@@dranorter "Halt is Defeat" based on "Sphinx" is a very interesting language and project. "mariposa" is IMO a bit less interesting, it isn't really well defined and not quite as thought out. (both findable with google + "programming language")
The plot thickens!!! Who will host next episode?
I was absolutely caught jamming with berd to the music :o
Your channel is so unique, I'm absolutely in love with it. It's one of the few channels I have notificatons turned on
This is anxiety-inducing, but I like it
This Arrowverse somehow makes more sense than the other
I can't explain the feeling your videos make me feel, but somehow it's very emotional. Your art is so unique and inspirational! I hope you are as proud of it as you should be.
Honestly what a treat to witness the sandpond saga, absolutely nothing like it ❤
Just sent this channel to a friend and now there's a new video? Awesome! Love your stuff! :D
😂😂 the chances 😂😂
This video is so fun, time to watch 37 more.
TodePond is that channel I discovered when I was half asleep one night and I now get excited whenever a new upload appears
I just love the randomness that's actually something useful
I'm not entirely sure what I just watched, but I think I like it
in the absolute best way possible, your videos feel like fever dreams, and i love them
also the first time i tried writing this comment my youtube glitched…
your video broke my youtube… honestly if anyone’s video was gonna break my youtube it’d be yours
I love the style of animation. Sad that todepond got taken away by bot and we havent seen him since.
sorry to interrupt, i have just found out that i am sorry to interrupt. love this channel.
aa i love this channel!! this video was oddly comforting and confusing at the same time
also berd has some MOVES
This was a fever dream. A good fever dream. One with cute soft spoken narrator. Can't wait until next hour
TodePond: This is an arrow.
Me: Dear God.
TodePond: There's more.
Me: No!
berds just vibin
babe wake up new toadpond video
i want to play around with this so bad!! i loooove weird music programs
(i also love YOU, todepond)
Lu, I've just finished watching your videos from the beginning. I feel inspired, but inspired to do what? But that's exactly the point. This is a wonderful feeling.
I'm currently leaving my job, going to just work on side projects and enjoy my life. This is going to be a good year.
thanks! glad you like my videos. have fun
no berd 😭💔
thanks for the upload!!!
Loved this, thank you for making it. Really beautiful and fun and cool!
You create art, Straight up. This is majestic and wonderful and I cannot stop feeling in awe for your raw creative talent. Tode, Berd and Bot feel so real, It kills me every time they dissapear. Nothing but the utmost in love and respect
Honey wake up, TodePond just dropped a new video!
I just must say, after finding an old video you made on sand, I watched every video on this channel just in time for Screens in Screens. Your films stick with me every time, and I can't wait for more ways to make sand, its a full circle for me.
Also, I saw the Fractals easter egg, was that used for the zooming into the arrows?
This one fits so well, I loved the ways music emerged from all the arrows.
My mind has been thoroughly cleared and set on a path of thoughtfulness :) Love your stuff, take care
Matic
I live near some of those NYC and Central Park shots- your videos are in a class unto themselves.
Somehow, your videos make me so emotional. Your channel truly is something else... Something special. You have a way of connecting logic with emotion that tickles my brain in a unique and delicious way...
I don't always "get" your videos, but I love that you're doing something weird and unique, and I wish there was more of that out there
These are getting more and more absurd and I love it
YESSSS IT’S OUTTT
That was exceptional and beautiful, thank you so much for making this and sharing it. You made a very special part of the Internet that feels wonderful to explore ♥
Your work is always engaging, and thought-provoking, and reminds me why I love programming so much. This one, though, is genuinely beautiful. Not just "the music was pretty," - though it was - but beautiful in a "this artist is in their element and absolutely killing it," way.
Really cool to see it. Very glad you shared it.
