A lot of creators who want to not commit algorithm suicide but do what you're describing wind up splitting the content for different audiences into different channels. The sad truth is, the nature of the algo is that it WILL punish you for diversifying content on a single channel, whereas having multiple channels for different things helps the growth of each channel since the algo heavily rewards hyperfocusing, even to the extent of punishing channels with WELL over a million subscribers for trying to do it all in one place despite their numbers going kind of crazy hard even when they don't publish for months, which seems paradoxical (that they would see steadier growth off old content within the hyperfocus if they did nothing compared to trying to spread out and follow their passions in one place) but it's about click-through rates and other metrics like that as to whether youtube serves your content up more or less, and those metrics are all just a lot better for hyperfocused channels (in part BECAUSE the algo serves them more as they hyperfocus, so it's sort of a snake eating its own tail). For example, if a music youtuber made a video essay of music criticism on let's say Glenn Branca and then they link in the pinned comment and description (and mention it at the beginning and end of the video) that they've done a one-person multi-track layering of themselves playing a hundred different guitar pieces to cover part of a Glenn Branca symphony or to do their own take on that post-minimalist totalist style of guitar symphony or whatever, each video can reference the other one (or if you want pure performance on the performance one, it can just be in the description and pinned comment) and it would likely boost the growth of each channel from cross-over clicks while not punishing either one and thus serving up the content from BOTH videos more to your average youtube user than youtube would normally serve up those two videos hosted on one channel. tl;dr I would highly recommend making videos across different channels for this idea, but linking them together by referencing videos from each channel on each other.
Dude THANK YOU so much for this detailed comment the way you have described it is so obvious I didn’t realize why I didn’t think of it. I’ll just turn my second channel into my performance/creative channel. Also sick idea about that Glenn Branca vid (one of the greatest to ever do it, without him no sonic youth etc) I am def gonna take this advice and pin this comment. THANK YOU BREH 🙏🏻
Can you make more videos on classical/art music? Your Parade video was one of the most well scripted videos I’ve seen; interesting, topical footage combined with a demonstration of your knowledge and interest in the subject made for a one of a kind though highly underrated video. Honestly I think you should create what you want and let your output speak for itself, rather than trying to cultivate an algorithm-approved audience. There will be people (like me) who appreciate your style, who share more than just one niche interest, and who eagerly consume your content.
@@NAETEMUSIC The AI networks that generate AI images steal artworks from artists without their consent. This also applies to most if not all Ai networks, so if you stopped using it in your album covers a lot of us would be far more comfortable supporting you, because your music genuinely slaps :) Anyways keep up the great content
@@magnusbeacon I hadn't considered this angle, thank you for your thoughts. I understand how frustrating that must be if you are a digital artist. Question: If I were to use AI to generate lifelike photorealistic images (not any particular visual art-style) would this still be ethically sus? As I would not necessarily be having a machine ape anyones art-style, just generate an image for narrative purposes with no distinctive features.
@@NAETEMUSIC So basically, ALL AI content uses real art. Photographers are artists Painters are artists Digital Artists are artists. These AI networks run off unethically and mostly illegally sourced art from real people, and trains off it. So essentially it uses styles and knowledge gained from all artists to create this image. So yes, all AI image creation is incredibly unethical, and disrespectful to real artists. Creating images from your art in Canva using ethical free assets is pretty easy, and a great skill to learn.

well put. i was gonna say something similar, but you explained it perfectly.

I needed this. You know what? I am gonna do that. Thank you for your comment I really appreciate that.
Thank goodness you're not closing the channel. You mean a lot to people mate.
Thank you man, that encouragement and support is invaluable to me. Thank you 🙏
Can you stop using AI images in your content
Can I ask why this is a problem, per se? If it helps move a story along as I am not a digital/actual artist myself?
