Vsauce, Veritasium, Physics Girl and Joe all uploaded in a 24 hours span? My brain can only handle so much awesome science!
Vidcon is coming. Probably something to do with it I suppose.
So true
So much science!

lucky
Tesla Coils absolutely DID revolutionize our lives.
The first radio transmitters were spark-gap tesla coils that sent EM pulses extreme distances (like across the ocean extreme) to transmit messages. My Samsung phone charging wirelessly right now is essentially the same thing as a Tesla coil but at much lower voltages. Tesla was the MAN.
Sure was. The leaders of the world/government and scientific community were cruel to him, they did not support his ideas, especially not the wardenclyffe tower.
now this is the real deal in electro music.
This video is pretty… electrifying. It was so great working with Dianna, go check out her video!
u got first
you're so punny
You got first
Electrifying? I'd say you were very Hans-ON.....eh?
Yeah, I'm a dad.
+It's Okay To Be Smart best part of this video(to me) is that you are showing that the midi format is still in use, and second, that it has a "practical" application.
shocks me as i have been working with midi since i was 15(44 now), and still use it to make music to this date.
put it this way... i still use a soundblaster live 5.1 soundcard with user hacked drivers to make the wavetable for the midi work in windows 7 (they stopped making soundcards with wavetables with windows vista.
not to shamelessly plug, but check some of the midi's i have done and played through my soundcard on my channel(they are karaoke style parodies)
Very interesting way to make music, though not necessarily the safest.
Or energy-efficient
Or limited on its production of toxic gases.
not safe
HI! I Love your videos about physics, I just want to thank you for the detailed and precise scientific knowledge you bring that many other physics channels on youtube lack!
It is totally safe, just don't touch the lightning. Like in the traffic, don't jump in front of a moving car 😉
TWO of my FAVE science communicators
I saw them live once.
The experience was.....
Highly entertaining.
.....
And ELECTRIFYING!! AAYYYYYYY!!
FullyAutomatedLuxuryLGBTplusTranshumnistSpaceAnCom way to get the pun last moment!
This is an Arc Attack. This an Arc Attack. THIS IS ARC ATTACK!
Fantastic video!!! That's why the UA-cam is all about! I would never had the opportunity to view something like this in my life and thanks to your channel I was mesmerized by the science again.
*I got a raging boson for Physics Girl....and it's gaining in mass every second....*
Baby, if there was no Gravity on Earth, I'd still fall for you...
But there is. So how bout we get that booty to accelarate to my bed at 9.8m/s^2. ;)
Some dudes have a project called Lightning on Demand where they wanted to build two twin Tesla coils, 100 ft tall. The idea was to have scientific shows, science experiments and other stuff. They even wanted to include a restaurant at the top, so you can actually see things from INSIDE!
But they never managed to secure funding for it. Such a shame.
Your smoking robot reminded me of pranks we pulled on unsuspecting technicians (each other) when i worked at Tektronics, in the early 1970s. The techs took newly built instruments and powered them up for the first time, repaired any problems and calibrated them and then they coild be packaged and sold. Occasionally a circuit would fail and sometimes a resister would burn up releasing a well known, easily recognized odor that we named "the ALLEN-BRADLEY smell", after the name of the resistor company. That was the key to the prank.
---> We all used small wattage soldering irons that had a replaceable tip that was pushed onto a hollow heated metal tube. Putting that fact to good use, we would come to work early enough to set up the prank. We would sneak into the victim's work station, and remove the tip of the soldering iron, insert a 1/4 watt resister with it's leads cut off, and replace the tip.
---> When the tech came to work, he would turn on the power to his bench and begin to power up the next instrument. It takes soldering irons around ten minutes to heat up, and that give the tech enough time to power up the instrument, before the 1/4 watt resister would start to burn. The tech , upon the first whiff of the ALLEN-BRADLEY smell, IMMEDIATELY kills the power to his work to minimize the destruction and begins the repair sequence by trying to locate the faulty circuit.
---> The more he looks for the source without success, the more frustrated he becomes. By this time the whole room of techs, who were all "in" on the prank, lose their self-control and start to laugh. The Victim realizes he was "had" by the prank and awards a point to the prankster on an imaginary scoreboard. A now the pressure was on the victim to come up with a revenge prank.
---> When I was the Victim of the ALLEN_BRADLEY trick, I got back at the prankster by coming in early and sabotaging his work bench. I unplugged it from the power and plugged it into an extension cord, which I ran back to my bench. I plugged my end into my VARIAC (a variable transformer to adjust the AC to any voltage 0-150VAC). I left the power at the proper 117VAC, until I saw the tech begin to check the new equipment for proper operating voltages at various test points, throughout the circuitry. Then I slowly turned the voltage down. The tech tried to figure the cause and I started turning it back up, then down, then up again. By that time the tech got wise and start looking around the room and everybody cracked up again! And those were the days of our lives... stay tuned for the next episode, as the stomach turns...
---> I realize these stories aren't exactly on topic, but you can't predict when an old memory will pop up, and besides it gives us one more view into Human psychology, with some comic relief...
Just shocking.
lol
Nice lmao
F
I'm subbed to you. Wow
I found it magnetic. Ohm my God this hertz. We must amp up the electric puns.
As time fluxes, I put a photon my desk and think of how static things become. Watt is the resistance to the waves of lightning fast change, truly tis a sad arc. I'm sure that the current electrocution induced the harbingers of change.
Two things that i love. Physics and Diana!
I knew it had to be ArcAttack. They are amazing.
Imagine turning extremely hard Dubstep to a Midi file, then playing it with them.
A Midi file only holds a melody, you would not get different sounds :/
ummm... firstgreendinosaur... midi holds no sounds at all... melody included. it is an instruction set that tells a midi device what sound to play, and for how long... and since i have been working with midi for 29 years(you can find 9 of the thousands i have made through the years on my channel), i can assure you, that the instruction set can EASILY handle up to 64 instrument instructions at a time.
(edit) and just to add, that when coupled with a wavetable... dubstep would be a walk in the park once you have the audio clips you wish to add to it)
Shawn Hufford Sorry I was trying to keep it understandable 😂
I said "holds a melody" just like Morse "holds a message", not a scientific way to explain
And thank you for sharing your knowledge because I clearly know nothing about all this :l
+Shawn Hufford that would be cool
Imagine making music with instruments instead of a computer program.
I loved the Johnny 5 alike robot! When I was a kid, I always wanted to have one, specially the toy version that appeared on short circuit 2. :-)
This is good electronic music... literally
Cool! Verry good explanations! Thumbs up!
And you see him, standing behind you... SHIA LABEUOF!!! lol
Good video, Hi to all from Croatia (middle Europe), country of Tesla!
this was in that old movie! the sorcerer's apprentice, with jay baruchel... anyone else remember that??
ArcAttack did the sound for that scene.
Aww, I love tesla coil music! It's so awesome :D
when the lighting hit his head cage, i physically recoiled
Man...Dang Amazing
Wow! So cool!
one of your coolest videos :)
I love how the SD card says Cage. I'm assuming they play some music by John Faraday Cage?
True electronic music
Tesla coil goes with everything
ayyy, this was in sorcerer's apprentice movie!!!!
This robot rocks!
0:42 Whip it! Whip it good!
1:43 Chia Laboof😂😂😂
very cool tesla coil
4:50 he’s got the power
2:39 is the funniest thing ever
It seemed really terrifying yet cool to have lightning to strike but not hurt you⚡️⚡️
Zeus approves!
Just....amazing
so much fun!!!
that electricity looks so weird this is so awesome
Electronic music at it's finest
To be honest............. I am SHOCKED XD
This should be called the real electro music wwwoowowww man this is cool
You, guys, are amazing! That's all I want to say. Hello from Kazakhstan! ( Just in case, it's the place where currently astronauts are being launched to space and the place where they land)
this is the real eletric music
Epic!!!!
I love both of you
Edison vs Tesla? What would the world be like it Tesla's inventions had led the way rather than General Electric?
XD he should've said, my body is ready
Too late now.....
Oh my shock!
You're walking in the woods. There's no one around and your phone is dead. Out of the corner of your eye you spot him:
60fps?
We want 240fps!
Tesla coil-
Hold my beer - 440hz
that's awesome
it looks like it was pretty hot in there, sweating like mad lol
It was brutally hot. And THEN I had to put on a 20 pound metal suit…
+It's Okay To Be Smart so I guess you could say it was
heavy metal
:D
:D
This reminds me of the movie the Apprentice
Jan 12 2017 at my field trip, at a show the sparks/Lightning bolts made music tunes like super Mario and that darth Vader song...
They showed something like this in The Sorcerer's Apprentice. I didn't think it was actually possible. :O
i defiantly want to study electrical engineering after watching this.
thats what i call , 'electronic music '
THEY ARE MY NEW OTP!!!
They should make "Still Alive" from portal
I laughed badly when they showed that swing thingy 😂😂
HE'S A WIZARD!
Wonder how many of you got that reference...
pretty old movie
+Yukino Takada 雪乃 鷹だ i know thats why i want to know how many people will get it
Wait. Wouldn't lightning just the same principle as feel a coils? That being resonance of small amount of static electricity in certain clouds, causing it to just explode out, and ionizing the air, as it connects (or Attempts to connect,) to the ground?
P.s. I just googled it, and it's ionized water droplets that polarize clouds, and cause static electricity to build up, pretty much being a floating giant tesla coil
Also, that was no explanation of how the Tesla coil actually produces the music. I mean, MIDI file, SD-Card, optical data link - so what, that isn't the point! I'd like to know more about the actual physics behind that! How is the frequency of the music modulated onto the frequency of the tesla coil?
Fun!
when you are a sim 1:12
Good
The tesla coil wasn't a failure, he was told it was a failure because it would destroy J.P.Morgan and Chase CO investments into fossil fuels and coal. It in fact works, but no ones built one big enough and spaced them out. Tesla was in the process of building them when he was called a failure. Nikola is the father of electricty. This method is still plausible, as it does infact send electricity through the air.
So did we physics on 6th street? Great videos.
Midi can work with tesla coils I usually see midi in digatial keyboard or something
I need to hear the Doom ost in this format
That song with Joe in between the coils sounds familiar. What is it?
It's an ArcAttack orginal called beasts.
Giovanni DiPrima thanks, but now I wanna know what it's based on. It sounds like a organ song by beethoven
You two looks like brother and sister please make more vids together :)
You're basically Mare Barrow 😂😂
Coooooooool
Hold on... HOLD ON... with enough individual tesla coils you could make them talk... (A talking piano type thing)
0:43 I was there today
I request the Gravity Falls theme be played on Tesla Coils!
Search David Blane and Andrew WK doing this it's awesome
And that's what I call Electro music.
Hey you need to do a collaboration with Deep Look, that channel makes such epic content but it has a very low number of subscribers, not many people know about that channel but it has great content, I know that you both are from PBS, at least give that channel some help, thanks ;)
3:54 Nice xbox 360 controler :)
I'm fast Bois. let me think of a joke.
what? I just said I'd think of a joke
not share it
SHARE... IT... WITH... US!
NOOOOW!!!
Yeah do it
Sounds like castlevania theme music.
5:10 well, you wanted to shoot ligthings from your fingers... well at least you got one from your thumb.
TEXAS!
HMM! Arcattack sounds like Architect?
this seems like sorcerers apprentice
Madden Mobile Storm Arcattack apparently made the music in that film.
You can see the robots eyes blink from the AC current in the 1/20th speed video
I love your stuff, but please help stop the Hollywood usage trend of "dat-uh". It's Data like on star trek TNG.
Latin derivatives are cool too.
Just a note for those who may claim that the Tesla Coil wasn't adopted as a power distribution system due to some kind of conspiracy... nope. That wasn't the reason.
There are two real reasons and the first is because distributing power this way is extremely inefficient. Most of the power which is transmitted never gets captured and used, making the Tesla Coil an extremely expensive and wasteful power distribution system.
The second reason is because the Tesla Coil causes massive amounts of electromagnetic interference which disrupts radio and television signals, meaning that nothing which depends on these signals, including mobile phones, WiFi and Bluetooth, will work anywhere near a Tesla Coil.
So, sorry (not sorry at all) to disappoint you, but there are very good and practical reasons why Tesla's invention was never used to distribute electrical energy.
It makes a great loudspeaker, though... if you can put it where it won't disrupt anything important.
I dare you to play a black midi on that thing
At 2:49 - 2:54 you can see that the lightning consists of little parallel flashes. Why is that?
This has been done to death on UA-cam
Yay Zeusaphones.
These reactions
3:40 I think he should get his nose checked out.
