Thank you all so much for watching this video. I'm really proud of it. If you have some art that you've made, and you're proud of, please feel free to share it here. I would love to see what you all have created.
ua-cam.com/video/Lln41Q7rLCU/v-deo.html I'm getting really good at animation these days and I've been practicing with music videos here's the last one I made if ur interested. The music is also me.
Thank you for making good art!!! ❤️❤️❤️ This is the first song I ever wrote, written for my dead friend Sebastian Blake Stott: ua-cam.com/video/txz_YcAzJwA/v-deo.html Thank you if anyone watches/listens to this!!! ❤️❤️❤️
you should be so proud of this! not only are the points excellently argued and interesting, the amount of hours that must have gone into this edit is phenomenal. it's really pushing the standard of what video essays can be and it's been awesome to see your channel develop in this way. bo burnham and your channel are 2 things that i get a ton of enjoyment from. i was blown away when I first saw Inside and it was really cool to hear your analysis, it felt kinda like seeing it again for the first time - viewing it through someone else's lens gave me appreciation for stuff i hadn't considered before! likening the Funny Feeling non-sequitur's to scrolling through a phone - wow!!! i stumbled on your channel when you did the Led Zep videos and was so impressed with the way that discussion was handled. they're one of my all time favs and i hadn't ever been able to process a lot of the controversies as I got older and heard about them for the first time. so thanks for those videos! i myself edit for a number of YT channels as a freelancer (i love my job a lot!) and i can't fathom the amount of care and passion you have for edits like this. so i just wanna say thanks and that it's really noticed and really appreciated, and i feel inspired by it. the constant motion shots such as with the phone screens must be some incredible AE comps, I bet they were super addictive to create once you got into the build of them!! fantastic work :) it's also awesome to see you ask people to share art they're proud of. i love songwriting and have a few on my channel that i loved creating! it feels lame to plug that here hahaha but nice of you to prompt people to do so!! please keep pushing yourself in the work you do - seeing experiments in the edit like this video are such a breath of fresh air and really set you apart from everyone else on YT. you have a great artistic eye and it's a joy to see edits like this. thanks :)
Hi, great video essay! I have created 5 albums since 2020, the most recent one came out two weeks ago. I am happy with and proud of them, and I have so much more music coming. Here is a link to “Stories”, thank you for the support and keep making great art! ua-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_lx2z5u2DgKhmUq2KfrFAcRfXkIxVCHoBc.html
I was so struck by your video that I've been playing this song of mine at my live performances today, about finding the way out of isolation in the modern world ua-cam.com/video/lNeaTqRGkv8/v-deo.html
I wish UA-cam had a "save this frame as a high-res image" kind of function on pause. I'd have saved several of your compositions. Beautiful work! You really are one of the UA-cam channels that produces actual art, and not simply video content.
If you're trying get specific frames for wallpapers or something, you might have better luck downloading the video in high rez and then just copying the frame in a video editor.
It's truly a gorgeous thing to see a critic seeing their job as an art in itself, and highlighting that elusive feeling of true spooky human connection at a distance, as the main "point" of art.
The comparison to 'empty calories' is really apt I think, I've realized there's a special kind of shitty I feel when I've been scrolling all day long and overall I've been feeling much better after deciding to majorly cut back on sites like Reddit and Twitter. 'Social media is bad' is so overdone lately that it sounds hollow and preachy but I think it's worth taking the time on realizing what it actually means and the way it affects you specifically, even just to reflect
Spot on. The benefits of social media for individuals and marginalized groups is much more evident than the negative effects, which gets little or no attention these days. Individual responsibility is vital, but the impact of mass addiction on brain chemistry, social behavior, and societal structures needs more attention ...more than just an excellent, thoughtful, well-crafted video on UA-cam... Oh the irony ; )
the emptiness and true futility of life you experience once you realise you spent 5 hours on the internet doing nothing instead of going to sleep is immeasurable
Funeral is probably one of my favourite indie albums ever and not many bands have come close except Black Country, New Rd. Feverishly waiting for this premiere!
Really love that one and You & Me by The Walkmen. They're always connected for me for some reason, probably the orchestral indie rock sound and the hugeness of it.
I have not heard of or heard Black Country....thanks for the recommendation. That Funeral album is unique and amazing, one of my all time favorites also.
This was.... incredible. As an artist who struggles with depression, anxiety, addiction, and lamenting the art that I struggle to create, Bravo. This was like having someone explain my own mindset to me.
INSIDE made me cry the first time that I watched it because it made me come face-to-face with the honest, cruel truth: I'm a victim. I'm a victim of the system that has been built by monetizing our time and lives. Yet I'm also the perpetrator. I keep on going back to these platforms and post useless stuff that doesn't make me or anyone else happy. I've been trying to restrict my screentime and get back to the real world, but it's surprisingly difficult. But I'll keep trying, and I'll keep on picking up my guitar and my pencils and my books in the hopes that one day I'd rather pick up any of those than my phone. A+ video!
Dude you didn't have to go so fucking hard on making this. Absolute S tier video. As someone who has too much experience with friends and family (and myself) considering suicide, this speaks to me. Some of the most important songs of my life are songs that are brutally honest with clear intentions as to what they were saying. Sometimes you need to see a painting that looks how you feel, read a poem that reminds you of yourself, or hear a song that lets you know that people have been through the same thing and lived. Clear communication and honesty is the key to a healthy relationship, and I think that applies to art as well. I believe that honest art has saved thousands and thousands of lives.
Arcade Fire and Bo Burnham are amazingly talented. Glad they are making content about the Dark Side of the Internet and Social Media. Hopefully a Video about the Foo Fighters and Taylor Hawkens.
Man, I´m crying my shit out with that final, thank you. The last months i´ve been feeling without any peace of inspiration in my life, with a lot of shit in my head. Now I feel super inspired, so thanks man. Love your content.
Stumbled on this video after listening to basically nothing but Reflektor for a week. Inside hit like nothing else because I felt understood, or that someone else understood what I understood, what people seem to try not to acknowledge. "We're going to go where everybody knows." The numbness is getting worse. It's getting harder to keep up the daily pretense that the things I'm doing mean anything. My attention is shot and nothing is satisfying, and all I am is bitter for the dying world we've been condemned to. Maybe it's time I gave Everything Now another chance. Quick addendum: thank you for this video, I think I really needed to see it at this moment. I really ought to get round to making some of that good art.
Oh my god. I gasped when you shouted out Contemporary Color. I participated in one of the featured color guards a few years after the documentary was filmed, and was taught in a few different local orgs by many of the folks you might see on screen. I owe everything I know and love about the art form to a handful of those featured in the documentary, and in addition I happen to be a huge fan of David Byrne. I haven’t been able to do color guard since 2020 for reasons including but not limited to the pandemic, but I love to see it mentioned and would love to be involved again someday. Editing to add that I am aware of the irony of me watching this beautiful, honest, insightful video about two pieces of media I love only to leave an excited comment about the ad and talk about how I really like David Byrne. Welcome to the internet :) (screaming)
Watching this was like having a mirror held up to the existential horror rattling around the back of my skull, then being told there's something good I can do with it. This video is an amazing piece of art and I'm very glad it exists.
You've always been such at the top for quality video essays but this takes the cake man! So innovative and a feeling I've struggled to put into words for years. Well done! :)
Idk if anyone is talking about this, but adding the picture frames on those stills from Inside really amplifies how much effort Bo puts into the visual aspect of his projects
That essay was beautiful and really struck a cord with me. I am still amazed by Bo Burnham's brilliance even after watching this special 9 times, and I think your video just captured the essence of Inside perfectly. I have been a fan of Arcade Fire since I was 15, and the links you found between their songs and Inside were super interesting. I saw about all the videos on Inside and this perspective felt very fresh and captivating ! I have been wanting to reconnect to my inner artist and create more, and conquer my insecurities about it, and I hope to do that in the near future. Your video really touched my heart, thank you for your words and for sharing your honesty. Amazing work !
Amazing video, which hit the nail on the head for me. I felt like the issues regarding society and capitalism you discussed within this video were something I already understood, due to my studies in political science and the sort, but the endless content loops that I keep finding myself in really distract from being able to do anything consistent to change these issues. Your final statement of just finding ways to give this anxiety an output within art was an eye-opener. I used to play the bass guitar and left it in a corner for some 5 years now, but this video made me think to start again, finding some others to jam with, and to just forget some of the problems we can't change on our own anyways. Thank a bunch, and keep doing what you're doing!
For what it's worth, as bad as social media can be, it does have its upsides. Not all 'content' is empty, vapid and soul-destroying. Sometimes it's uplifting, transcendent, and meaningful. I'd place Polyphonic videos in the latter category. Hell, I love your artwork and animations so much that I'm actually considering using some of it as inspiration for tattoos.
'uplifting, transcendent, and meaningful'... Indeed! The upsides are more evident than the wide-ranging downsides from changes to brain chemistry (addiction), social behavior, and societal structures. I do not think you will find many people these days who have not experienced the benefits of social media (especially post-pandemic). It's the detrimental, fundamental changes to society that demand attention. Agreed, Polyphonic is solid. 🙏
it's honestly weird to see.... and be a part of, so many people drowing, wether they are aware of it or not, in this endless flood of content we can acces at any point, just to take away the most valuable thing in this world. Time. Thanks for making this video, and for at comment about these video essays, is that you reach an audience who wouldn't or couldn't normally be introduced to these masterpieces. This video put problems i've had for months now into words. Again thanks.
I rewatched Make Happy recently and the ending songs are so connected to Inside and really help to show his first attempts to vocalize the themes he touched on later with Inside. Also a lot of people who aren’t chronically ill/disabled didn’t understand how being isolated in your home despite all the tech we have is so soul sucking and well, lonely - and how the world with all of its tech is still not accessible to those who are stuck so often in our homes. And many people still don’t understand that many of us can’t go back to normal like everyone is urging us to. And now those once granted access needs are being yanked away from those who still need to stay inside because non-disabled people don’t need them anymore. The stark reality that your peers and fellow humans don’t give a damn if you live or die. It’s a lot..just a lot.
I never thought about it through the perspective of someone w disability, thanks for sharing this. Personally, make happy spoke more to me than Inside despite having the exact same experience as bo in Inside throughout lockdown (as I am sure many of us did), the final song and Can't Handle This resonated with my constant need for making others happy and viewing every interaction as a performance.
This is a great way to explain a concept album and the visuals are just so good and you can see how much work goes into theses videos amazing work polyphonic.
Beautifully written and also beautifully EDITED!!! I've always been so in awe of people who are able to communicate their passion for art so clearly that it's art in and of itself. Thank you for making this.
you're right there are probably enough video essays out there analysing Inside, but speaking as somone who has watched A Lot of them yours was one of my favourites. great work!
Bo Burnham's inside is my comfort content to watch whenever I am just overwhelmed by content consumption. I enjoyed hearing your perspective in this video. Keep it up!
I clicked on this because of 'Bo Burnham' and 'Infinite Dread of the Internet'. This was truly incredible. You've somehow managed to articulate all of my thoughts about.... everything... so precisely and coherently, which I've never been able to do. I am excited to go listen to arcade fire! They sound really cool. another form of content to consume, which is JUST what I need right now! But seriously, thank you so much.
Samee, i thought everyone in the comments was here for arcade fire and already knew their entire discography, finally found someone here for bo and new to arcade fire!
This was actually one of the most moving pieces of art i have seen. The way you respectfully yry to understand the works of these artists, put them into a greater perspective, but ultimately taking it down to the very core of this perspective; you. It is beautiful. You have a tone here which speaks honestly about the paradox of trying to push through the static of the infinite content, with the very tools that you so eloquently put forward as the very problem. I work as a librarian and lecturer at a university in Sweden, teaching (trying to) students how to navigate the information overload and making informed choices on what information they read, use and reky upon. This video might actually be something i will include in my lectures, to show how content works, and how it just might hinder creative thought and critical thinking. So, with this overblown essay: Thank you! You are a beacon of beauty and thoughtfulness!
i am in love with the visual presentation of this video!! the cut out faces, the collage-ish look, and the thematic imagery!! im sorry im a bit of a design nerd and obsessing over how awesome this looks
I have been watching your videos since about 2 years ago, when I started listening to Led Zeppelin and discovered your videos covering them, and I want to thank you for what you do. Your videos never fail to generate genuine curiosity in me and I think about the topics that you discuss long after the end of the video. I have discovered many artists, songs and albums from your content, I even went and watched “Inside” after this video. You’re one of the creators of honest art, honest content, and I wish there were more content creators like you!
This is just great. Your best work so far. I appreciate you having moments of openness about your personal struggles with mental health. You’re awesome keep it up man
I've struggled with anxiety and depression and likely something else that's gone undiagnosed for a couple decades. I think you are spot on with your assessment of how commodification has had an effect on mental health. Everything is commodified but I find it much more difficult to find value in much of anything. Before everything was "free" on the internet, there were albums I would buy which I wouldn't appreciate at first but would grow to become touchstones. I think a big part of that is simply the fact that I bought the physical thing with my own money, so I was invested in giving it every chance I could. Sometimes listening again and again is the thing that made it all click. But the last time that happened to me was probably over 10 years ago. I can honestly say over the past year there was only one new album that I actually listened to all the way through. It's just too easy to skip if you don't like how the first 20 seconds sounds to you. There's always another. And yeah that's basically what social media turned human relations into for me. I interacted less with the physical versions of people and more with their online versions. It became my preferred way to keep in touch with family because then I didn't have to see them or talk on the phone. But then again social media made everyone that much more skippable. Even the people I agreed with were becoming unbearable, their voices amplified and distorted by the nature of the medium. And I was becoming unbearable to myself, causing my own anxiety by continuing to participate in pointless arguments with people I either didn't care about at all or cared about so much that it hurt to realize how differently they saw the world. So 5 years ago I deleted everything but youtube. I try to avoid all of that on here, even though I slip sometimes, I'm finding it much easier to let things go and tell myself it's just a youtube comment. But now I avoid talking to anyone any time that's possible. It hurts. Especially because I miss my family and I know it hurts them when I withdraw. I've felt alone for such a long time that it feels like that's the only way life is or can be. But sometimes there's good art like Inside, and Everything Now, and this, that helps me know it's not just me. Great work on this one.
This has been by far, the most influencel video for me. After hours of 'doom scrolling' I came to watch this and it was just the push I needed to delete my youtube and to start consuming on my terms. Which means for me getting a subscription to nebula and only watching when I want to, and not going on youtube. Keep creating art, it's wonderful.
This video is amazing! I'm currently struggling big time with some mental issues and Everything Now makes me cry everytime, such a good song. I love Inside as well, listened to the album on repeat a lot last year.
Wow, what a video! I like how you look at everything the way it is, and offer your thoughts. Watching your channel is a nice break from all the other social media posts that we're forced to see! I never would have known about a lot of these things if you didn't bring light to them! Thank you!!
I'm making some uni work about 'post-digital' and I was wondering where some of my ideas came from for my project. I saw your video and was reminded of such a strong touchpoint of this level of self-awareness and recognition. I genuinely needed this level of inspiration to get through. Maybe loads of people have made essays, but it was this one that got me through my final project at uni ever so slightly easier, and for that I thank you
I usually try to avoid people who analyze Inside - there's part of me that wants to keep my interpretation as my own. Seeing Arcade Fire included got me curious though and I'm so glad I watched this. This whole topic has been lingering in the back of my day to day stream of thought like an itch. Thanks for scratching that itch!
If you’re looking for even more discussion about Inside along this same vein, I can’t recommend checking out CJ the X’s video about it enough, CJ is pretty eccentric so it might not be for everyone but it’s a revolutionary dissection of the special.
I really really loved this video. I just want to point out, though, that referring to the world we are living in as "collapsing" or "apocalyptic" can be pretty harmful when interpreted by an unknowing audience. While we do need to create a sense of urgency in humanity to act upon the most pressing issues in the world today, trying to do so by making people think it's hopeless only achieves just that... hopelessness, which makes people give up instead of work harder. Hank Green made a video on Vlogbrothers about climate change that talks about this paradox, and how we have to create a sense of urgency and emergency without making people feel hopeless, and such strong words such as "collapsing society" or "apocalypse" can send the wrong message sometimes, whether you meant to or not.
100% agree. The way CC has been presented by many people has almost solidified the fact that we'll probably not be able to help much. Like it's completely wrecked mine and many others mental health, even in indirect ways. I've had to leave groups because people kept doomposting about CC and it became too much for me to handle.
In my humble opinion this is easily the greatest video you have made, and I love the content you create. You attempted to make good art and you went above and beyond. Thanks for the dedication and passion
As somebody that grew alone and sad, I found colour and life in the internet, but now, I struggle with the human side, the interaction, I have become so much of sporatic, jump from one topic to another, lunging for attention of anyone and I am more depressed than never before, because If I go into the internet, I feel sad because I am not doing anything to fight my bad side but when I go out, I just wanna be eternally inside, I dont look people in the eyes and I just wanna hide. INSIDE - Hit me so hard but yeah, mental illness sucks major ****. If you took time to read this, thanks for reading my small rant. I am just another comment on a page of a youtuber, I am not even human, I control my emotions and my sleep with pills. So, again, thanks for reading. I love you even tho I dont know you.
Arcade Fire are my favourite band of all time, and they have released albums at stages of my life where the direction of my journey on this planet seems to match the sound and themes they're going for. For example, Reflektor released when I went to university, they reinvented their sound at a time when I reinvented myself. Everything Now released when I was in a 'happy' relationship, one where I was unhappy, but appeared happy on the outside. Posting our lunch to Instagram, pictures of us on holiday. I'm now at a stage where I am single again, lost in an uncaring world, alone. I fully expect 'WE' to soundtrack my attempts to reach out to family and the few friends I have left, the soundtrack of the difficult days of my late 20's. Awesome video, btw.
Your graphic art chops are absolutely mind blowing in every single video you put out. If you sold displates or posters of some of your major compositions from videos I'd buy so many of them holy crap.
I'm not a creative person, and I don't think I could ever be an artist. That being said, I deeply appreciate artists because your art adds to my human experience. I think Inside did that in many ways for me and it affected me in ways I can't fully articulate, but I think a tangible effect the special has is how many conversations it started. I think it's great that you and other artists made and still make videos discussing Inside. Each and everyone of you relating it to another piece of art, media or to personal experiences that are different in one way or another added to how I viewed the special. I saw people using clips and music from Inside to talk about their mental health, others to talk about their art or quarantine or personal relationship with the internet. All this is great. I think artists are continuously inspired by each other, and I find this to be a vaccinating quality. Art brings people together and creates connections where there has been none before. Thank you and all the other artists for your work. I'm glad you made this video.
I've seen all of your videos and really appreciate your growth both from a production perspective and from an analytical perspective. Thank you for creating such thoughtful and beautiful works of art. This might be your best work. Thanks again.
I have been publishing music since December 2020. I love making my music. I’ve made music about my own struggles and issues using tools like FL Studio. I know it isn’t the biggest thing in the world but really all I want is to help someone who’s dealt with the same struggles and issues as me with my art. Because then, that’s when I know I have made it in life
Dude, you are literally my favourite creator and you seem like a genuinely cool person and I look foreward to your videos more for your personality than anything else (the visuals and actual analysis are amazing too) and you genuinely seem more human than most channels and I really appreciate and respect that.
Holy smokes, man. This is probably the best video I’ve seen in a LONG time. This coming from someone who has, unfortunately, seen a lot of content. If you do happen to see this, please know that this video means the world to me. Your honesty here was a breath of fresh air. It’s good to see other people having the same funny feelings. It’s a life saver. Anyways, thanks.
I definitely agree with what you’ve said about ‘that funny feeling’, but i think there’s so much more to it than that. To me ‘that funny feeling’ is a kind of an inherently indescribable ironic tension that exists in the space between all the things that bo is naming. I think it’s the humbling understanding of exactly where the path we’ve chosen is taking us, and the recognition that there’s just too much noise (be it endless content or infighting, etc.) for anyone to really be able to say anything meaningful that can cut through and help us turn things around before it’s too late. I think it’s all that and more. Like the Tao, it is inherently indescribable, so all bo can do is name the things that give him this feeling, to draw it out in us, and once it’s there, call our attention to ‘that funny feeling’. Bo really created a deeply depressing masterpiece with that one.
When I think about what I want to create, I'm always in a battle between what I want, and what the consumer wants. More and more over time, what I want has shifted to align with what the consumer wants. I write stories that I know people want to hear, rather than the ones that I want to write. I've scrapped dozens, maybe hundreds of ideas because they don't live up to the infinite well of competition out there. If something doesn't seem like a million dollar idea from the outset, it's hard to bother with it. But I'm also in a lucky place. I don't struggle to feed myself, I don't have major responsibilities. More and more lately, I've been reminding myself that I don't have to yield to what is expected, and I can just do what I want. I don't need to take brand deals, I don't need to appease the algorithms, I don't need to make money. I can just focus on making my world better, and hopefully sharing that to others. This video really helped me find a footing not just on what I /want/ to do, but /why/ I should do it. For myself, and for others. Part of that comes in this comment - Normally I'd rewrite it to start off more punchy, or be more targeted, or whatever is expected of me, but really, this isn't for anyone but me. I'll probably put this in a document somewhere and revisit it in the future.
I have been struggling for years with the problems described in this video(combined with other emotional damage) and when I experienced Inside by myself, both as album and in its entirety i resonated with the whole thing but couldnt understand why. This video helped fill out so much of that I couldnt put to words so im grateful for another amazing polyphonic video, thank you so much for making an artistic expression that can help me feel less hollow to this absolute insanity of a world.
You did an amazing job speaking to everyone and expressing just how important it is to make sure everyone makes honest art. I know it did for me and it is something I am very thankful that you shared and brought to the forefront. Thank you.
This was amazing, great work Polyphonic! This one really hit me and I related to a lot of the emotions you described through your analysis. Thank you for your art.
I gotta say, usually I can't watch a video longer than 8-ish minutes (how fitting huh?) But theres something about your videos that just drags me in and I can't stop watching it
This was genuinely such an inspirational video thank you so much for your work! Honestly got me emotional and motivated at the same time, never had quite an experience in all my years of endless content consumption. Keep making great art, Polyphonic!
Poly, that was an incredible video. Gaiman is also my favorite writer and I was thinking of the exact same speech before you quoted it. His work was part of what helped me get through a whole lot of stuff in 2020 and 21. Thank you for all your good art.
We need art. Art is human. Art is soothing. Art is what we cling to when the lights dim. Art inspires people to get up and change the world. Please keep making these videos. They have gotten me through my last few years of depression. I love them. I love talking to people (offline) about them. Honestly, you have no idea how many dinner parties and pub nights we've discussed things from your essays. It helps us understand the world around us, collapsing or not. It helps me regulate my dopamine. It sounds trite, but it pulls me back from the edge when things get too much. Thank you for your content.
Thank you all so much for watching this video. I'm really proud of it. If you have some art that you've made, and you're proud of, please feel free to share it here. I would love to see what you all have created.

Hi, great video essay! I have created 5 albums since 2020, the most recent one came out two weeks ago. I am happy with and proud of them, and I have so much more music coming. Here is a link to “Stories”, thank you for the support and keep making great art! ua-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_lx2z5u2DgKhmUq2KfrFAcRfXkIxVCHoBc.html
I was so struck by your video that I've been playing this song of mine at my live performances today, about finding the way out of isolation in the modern world ua-cam.com/video/lNeaTqRGkv8/v-deo.html
I wish UA-cam had a "save this frame as a high-res image" kind of function on pause. I'd have saved several of your compositions. Beautiful work! You really are one of the UA-cam channels that produces actual art, and not simply video content.
If you're trying get specific frames for wallpapers or something, you might have better luck downloading the video in high rez and then just copying the frame in a video editor.
“Actual art” is a nebulous phrase, but I agree!
You could pause and screenshot
They do, it's a screenshot
It's truly a gorgeous thing to see a critic seeing their job as an art in itself, and highlighting that elusive feeling of true spooky human connection at a distance, as the main "point" of art.
The comparison to 'empty calories' is really apt I think, I've realized there's a special kind of shitty I feel when I've been scrolling all day long and overall I've been feeling much better after deciding to majorly cut back on sites like Reddit and Twitter.

Individual responsibility is vital, but the impact of mass addiction on brain chemistry, social behavior, and societal structures needs more attention ...more than just an excellent, thoughtful, well-crafted video on UA-cam... Oh the irony ; )
the emptiness and true futility of life you experience once you realise you spent 5 hours on the internet doing nothing instead of going to sleep is immeasurable
I'm an addict to UA-cam. Thinking of removing from my phone and just watching it on the big screen at home. Being more selective with my watching
@@letsgocamping88 go for it, definitely!
This is why I don’t keep social media on my phone. It only exists on my computer at home.
Funeral is probably one of my favourite indie albums ever and not many bands have come close except Black Country, New Rd. Feverishly waiting for this premiere!
I think I prefer Neon Bible but on the whole, I agree. Funeral is a classic album. Nothing else feels like that record does.
Really love that one and You & Me by The Walkmen. They're always connected for me for some reason, probably the orchestral indie rock sound and the hugeness of it.
@@HotStrange Agreed. 😎👍🏼
I have not heard of or heard Black Country....thanks for the recommendation. That Funeral album is unique and amazing, one of my all time favorites also.
@@williamrayburn5314 oh god William, you’re in for a wild ride.
Thank you so much for this video! It was truly artful and Reflective! Big fan of Arcade Fire, Bo and now of you as well!
Reflektive*
This was.... incredible. As an artist who struggles with depression, anxiety, addiction, and lamenting the art that I struggle to create, Bravo. This was like having someone explain my own mindset to me.
INSIDE made me cry the first time that I watched it because it made me come face-to-face with the honest, cruel truth: I'm a victim. I'm a victim of the system that has been built by monetizing our time and lives. Yet I'm also the perpetrator. I keep on going back to these platforms and post useless stuff that doesn't make me or anyone else happy. I've been trying to restrict my screentime and get back to the real world, but it's surprisingly difficult. But I'll keep trying, and I'll keep on picking up my guitar and my pencils and my books in the hopes that one day I'd rather pick up any of those than my phone.
A+ video!
Me too. This was perfect, thank you.
Stockholm syndrome moment
Dude you didn't have to go so fucking hard on making this. Absolute S tier video.
As someone who has too much experience with friends and family (and myself) considering suicide, this speaks to me. Some of the most important songs of my life are songs that are brutally honest with clear intentions as to what they were saying. Sometimes you need to see a painting that looks how you feel, read a poem that reminds you of yourself, or hear a song that lets you know that people have been through the same thing and lived. Clear communication and honesty is the key to a healthy relationship, and I think that applies to art as well. I believe that honest art has saved thousands and thousands of lives.
Arcade Fire and Bo Burnham are amazingly talented. Glad they are making content about the Dark Side of the Internet and Social Media. Hopefully a Video about the Foo Fighters and Taylor Hawkens.
Man, I´m crying my shit out with that final, thank you. The last months i´ve been feeling without any peace of inspiration in my life, with a lot of shit in my head. Now I feel super inspired, so thanks man. Love your content.
Stumbled on this video after listening to basically nothing but Reflektor for a week. Inside hit like nothing else because I felt understood, or that someone else understood what I understood, what people seem to try not to acknowledge. "We're going to go where everybody knows."
The numbness is getting worse. It's getting harder to keep up the daily pretense that the things I'm doing mean anything. My attention is shot and nothing is satisfying, and all I am is bitter for the dying world we've been condemned to.
Maybe it's time I gave Everything Now another chance.
Quick addendum: thank you for this video, I think I really needed to see it at this moment. I really ought to get round to making some of that good art.
professional-grade video editing. also loving to see the gradual radicalization of polyphonic. better start posting some comrade content soon!
Oh my god. I gasped when you shouted out Contemporary Color. I participated in one of the featured color guards a few years after the documentary was filmed, and was taught in a few different local orgs by many of the folks you might see on screen. I owe everything I know and love about the art form to a handful of those featured in the documentary, and in addition I happen to be a huge fan of David Byrne. I haven’t been able to do color guard since 2020 for reasons including but not limited to the pandemic, but I love to see it mentioned and would love to be involved again someday.
Editing to add that I am aware of the irony of me watching this beautiful, honest, insightful video about two pieces of media I love only to leave an excited comment about the ad and talk about how I really like David Byrne. Welcome to the internet :) (screaming)
The Polyphonic-ified memes were brilliant.
One of your best videos hands down. Makes me realize how much I would love a Father John Misty video if there wasn't already one that I missed!
Watching this was like having a mirror held up to the existential horror rattling around the back of my skull, then being told there's something good I can do with it. This video is an amazing piece of art and I'm very glad it exists.
You've always been such at the top for quality video essays but this takes the cake man! So innovative and a feeling I've struggled to put into words for years. Well done! :)
god i just finished the video and the nail gaiman speech just bought me to tears. make good art.
Idk if anyone is talking about this, but adding the picture frames on those stills from Inside really amplifies how much effort Bo puts into the visual aspect of his projects
And he did all of it by himself, I can't believe he is real
This is a masterpiece. I love Polyphonic videos in general, but this one is on another level of quality and passion. Amazing. Keep doing great art.
All Arcade Fire songs played in this video:
05:12 , 05:50 Reflektor
11:43 , 12:14 , 12:43 Everything Now
17:14 , 19:13 , 21:43 Creature Comfort
This has to be one of the best edited video essays i’ve ever watched and the themes resonated with me deeply. You’re amazing!
That essay was beautiful and really struck a cord with me. I am still amazed by Bo Burnham's brilliance even after watching this special 9 times, and I think your video just captured the essence of Inside perfectly. I have been a fan of Arcade Fire since I was 15, and the links you found between their songs and Inside were super interesting. I saw about all the videos on Inside and this perspective felt very fresh and captivating ! I have been wanting to reconnect to my inner artist and create more, and conquer my insecurities about it, and I hope to do that in the near future. Your video really touched my heart, thank you for your words and for sharing your honesty. Amazing work !
This is again, a blast. Thank you for all the organised deep toughts and giving spotlight to works of art you enjoy deeply for good reasons.
Amazing video, which hit the nail on the head for me. I felt like the issues regarding society and capitalism you discussed within this video were something I already understood, due to my studies in political science and the sort, but the endless content loops that I keep finding myself in really distract from being able to do anything consistent to change these issues. Your final statement of just finding ways to give this anxiety an output within art was an eye-opener.
I used to play the bass guitar and left it in a corner for some 5 years now, but this video made me think to start again, finding some others to jam with, and to just forget some of the problems we can't change on our own anyways. Thank a bunch, and keep doing what you're doing!
This video just changed my life, wtf. omg I even cried
For what it's worth, as bad as social media can be, it does have its upsides. Not all 'content' is empty, vapid and soul-destroying. Sometimes it's uplifting, transcendent, and meaningful. I'd place Polyphonic videos in the latter category. Hell, I love your artwork and animations so much that I'm actually considering using some of it as inspiration for tattoos.
'uplifting, transcendent, and meaningful'... Indeed!
The upsides are more evident than the wide-ranging downsides from changes to brain chemistry (addiction), social behavior, and societal structures. I do not think you will find many people these days who have not experienced the benefits of social media (especially post-pandemic). It's the detrimental, fundamental changes to society that demand attention.
Agreed, Polyphonic is solid. 🙏
it's honestly weird to see.... and be a part of, so many people drowing, wether they are aware of it or not, in this endless flood of content we can acces at any point, just to take away the most valuable thing in this world. Time. Thanks for making this video, and for at comment about these video essays, is that you reach an audience who wouldn't or couldn't normally be introduced to these masterpieces.
This video put problems i've had for months now into words. Again thanks.
I rewatched Make Happy recently and the ending songs are so connected to Inside and really help to show his first attempts to vocalize the themes he touched on later with Inside.
Also a lot of people who aren’t chronically ill/disabled didn’t understand how being isolated in your home despite all the tech we have is so soul sucking and well, lonely - and how the world with all of its tech is still not accessible to those who are stuck so often in our homes. And many people still don’t understand that many of us can’t go back to normal like everyone is urging us to. And now those once granted access needs are being yanked away from those who still need to stay inside because non-disabled people don’t need them anymore. The stark reality that your peers and fellow humans don’t give a damn if you live or die. It’s a lot..just a lot.
I never thought about it through the perspective of someone w disability, thanks for sharing this. Personally, make happy spoke more to me than Inside despite having the exact same experience as bo in Inside throughout lockdown (as I am sure many of us did), the final song and Can't Handle This resonated with my constant need for making others happy and viewing every interaction as a performance.
This is a great way to explain a concept album and the visuals are just so good and you can see how much work goes into theses videos amazing work polyphonic.
Thank you so much for bringing Bo Burnham's Inside to my attention. It was probably the best piece of art I experienced for the last years.
made some honest art bc of this video. thank you polyphonic
This is such a nice video to watch. The progression of the aesthetic is amazing!
Beautifully written and also beautifully EDITED!!! I've always been so in awe of people who are able to communicate their passion for art so clearly that it's art in and of itself. Thank you for making this.
you're right there are probably enough video essays out there analysing Inside, but speaking as somone who has watched A Lot of them yours was one of my favourites. great work!
Bo Burnham's inside is my comfort content to watch whenever I am just overwhelmed by content consumption. I enjoyed hearing your perspective in this video. Keep it up!
I clicked on this because of 'Bo Burnham' and 'Infinite Dread of the Internet'. This was truly incredible. You've somehow managed to articulate all of my thoughts about.... everything... so precisely and coherently, which I've never been able to do. I am excited to go listen to arcade fire! They sound really cool. another form of content to consume, which is JUST what I need right now! But seriously, thank you so much.
Samee, i thought everyone in the comments was here for arcade fire and already knew their entire discography, finally found someone here for bo and new to arcade fire!
This was actually one of the most moving pieces of art i have seen. The way you respectfully yry to understand the works of these artists, put them into a greater perspective, but ultimately taking it down to the very core of this perspective; you. It is beautiful. You have a tone here which speaks honestly about the paradox of trying to push through the static of the infinite content, with the very tools that you so eloquently put forward as the very problem. I work as a librarian and lecturer at a university in Sweden, teaching (trying to) students how to navigate the information overload and making informed choices on what information they read, use and reky upon. This video might actually be something i will include in my lectures, to show how content works, and how it just might hinder creative thought and critical thinking. So, with this overblown essay: Thank you! You are a beacon of beauty and thoughtfulness!
absolutely transcendent video
i am in love with the visual presentation of this video!! the cut out faces, the collage-ish look, and the thematic imagery!! im sorry im a bit of a design nerd and obsessing over how awesome this looks
I have been watching your videos since about 2 years ago, when I started listening to Led Zeppelin and discovered your videos covering them, and I want to thank you for what you do. Your videos never fail to generate genuine curiosity in me and I think about the topics that you discuss long after the end of the video. I have discovered many artists, songs and albums from your content, I even went and watched “Inside” after this video. You’re one of the creators of honest art, honest content, and I wish there were more content creators like you!
"INSIDE" is genius and it grows stronger every year.
It's not even been a year since it came out lol, but i get what u mean
This is just great. Your best work so far. I appreciate you having moments of openness about your personal struggles with mental health. You’re awesome keep it up man
I've struggled with anxiety and depression and likely something else that's gone undiagnosed for a couple decades. I think you are spot on with your assessment of how commodification has had an effect on mental health. Everything is commodified but I find it much more difficult to find value in much of anything. Before everything was "free" on the internet, there were albums I would buy which I wouldn't appreciate at first but would grow to become touchstones. I think a big part of that is simply the fact that I bought the physical thing with my own money, so I was invested in giving it every chance I could. Sometimes listening again and again is the thing that made it all click. But the last time that happened to me was probably over 10 years ago. I can honestly say over the past year there was only one new album that I actually listened to all the way through. It's just too easy to skip if you don't like how the first 20 seconds sounds to you. There's always another.
And yeah that's basically what social media turned human relations into for me. I interacted less with the physical versions of people and more with their online versions. It became my preferred way to keep in touch with family because then I didn't have to see them or talk on the phone. But then again social media made everyone that much more skippable. Even the people I agreed with were becoming unbearable, their voices amplified and distorted by the nature of the medium. And I was becoming unbearable to myself, causing my own anxiety by continuing to participate in pointless arguments with people I either didn't care about at all or cared about so much that it hurt to realize how differently they saw the world. So 5 years ago I deleted everything but youtube. I try to avoid all of that on here, even though I slip sometimes, I'm finding it much easier to let things go and tell myself it's just a youtube comment.
But now I avoid talking to anyone any time that's possible. It hurts. Especially because I miss my family and I know it hurts them when I withdraw. I've felt alone for such a long time that it feels like that's the only way life is or can be. But sometimes there's good art like Inside, and Everything Now, and this, that helps me know it's not just me. Great work on this one.
This has been by far, the most influencel video for me.
After hours of 'doom scrolling' I came to watch this and it was just the push I needed to delete my youtube and to start consuming on my terms. Which means for me getting a subscription to nebula and only watching when I want to, and not going on youtube.
Keep creating art, it's wonderful.
This video is amazing! I'm currently struggling big time with some mental issues and Everything Now makes me cry everytime, such a good song.
I love Inside as well, listened to the album on repeat a lot last year.
keep 'em bo essays comin ppl i'll watch all of them
Wow, what a video! I like how you look at everything the way it is, and offer your thoughts. Watching your channel is a nice break from all the other social media posts that we're forced to see! I never would have known about a lot of these things if you didn't bring light to them! Thank you!!
I'm making some uni work about 'post-digital' and I was wondering where some of my ideas came from for my project. I saw your video and was reminded of such a strong touchpoint of this level of self-awareness and recognition. I genuinely needed this level of inspiration to get through.
Maybe loads of people have made essays, but it was this one that got me through my final project at uni ever so slightly easier, and for that I thank you
I usually try to avoid people who analyze Inside - there's part of me that wants to keep my interpretation as my own. Seeing Arcade Fire included got me curious though and I'm so glad I watched this. This whole topic has been lingering in the back of my day to day stream of thought like an itch. Thanks for scratching that itch!
I am so amazed by the quality of this channel. Thanks a lot for the countless hours of work for such a beautiful and moving video.
If you’re looking for even more discussion about Inside along this same vein, I can’t recommend checking out CJ the X’s video about it enough, CJ is pretty eccentric so it might not be for everyone but it’s a revolutionary dissection of the special.
This made me cry 😭 I really needed to hear this. Thank you. 🖤
I really really loved this video. I just want to point out, though, that referring to the world we are living in as "collapsing" or "apocalyptic" can be pretty harmful when interpreted by an unknowing audience. While we do need to create a sense of urgency in humanity to act upon the most pressing issues in the world today, trying to do so by making people think it's hopeless only achieves just that... hopelessness, which makes people give up instead of work harder. Hank Green made a video on Vlogbrothers about climate change that talks about this paradox, and how we have to create a sense of urgency and emergency without making people feel hopeless, and such strong words such as "collapsing society" or "apocalypse" can send the wrong message sometimes, whether you meant to or not.
100% agree. The way CC has been presented by many people has almost solidified the fact that we'll probably not be able to help much. Like it's completely wrecked mine and many others mental health, even in indirect ways. I've had to leave groups because people kept doomposting about CC and it became too much for me to handle.
Man, you are extremely great at putting hard-to-communicate thoughts into words. Really enjoyed this essay.
Bravo, this is my favourite content of yours! Being a fan of Arcade Fire and Bo also helps. Keep up the good work ❤
Your videos always have the best graphics. Very relevant topic too. 10/10
In my humble opinion this is easily the greatest video you have made, and I love the content you create. You attempted to make good art and you went above and beyond. Thanks for the dedication and passion
As somebody that grew alone and sad, I found colour and life in the internet, but now, I struggle with the human side, the interaction, I have become so much of sporatic, jump from one topic to another, lunging for attention of anyone and I am more depressed than never before, because If I go into the internet, I feel sad because I am not doing anything to fight my bad side but when I go out, I just wanna be eternally inside, I dont look people in the eyes and I just wanna hide.
INSIDE - Hit me so hard but yeah, mental illness sucks major ****. If you took time to read this, thanks for reading my small rant. I am just another comment on a page of a youtuber, I am not even human, I control my emotions and my sleep with pills. So, again, thanks for reading. I love you even tho I dont know you.
There are far too many video essays on youtube, but you continue to create some of the few worth watching. Well done.
This is easily one of the best videos I’be ever seen. Great job poly.
This is an incredible video.
Arcade Fire are my favourite band of all time, and they have released albums at stages of my life where the direction of my journey on this planet seems to match the sound and themes they're going for. For example, Reflektor released when I went to university, they reinvented their sound at a time when I reinvented myself.
Everything Now released when I was in a 'happy' relationship, one where I was unhappy, but appeared happy on the outside. Posting our lunch to Instagram, pictures of us on holiday.
I'm now at a stage where I am single again, lost in an uncaring world, alone. I fully expect 'WE' to soundtrack my attempts to reach out to family and the few friends I have left, the soundtrack of the difficult days of my late 20's.
Awesome video, btw.
This might be the best video you've ever made - so raw and powerful.
I've watched possibly all of your videos, and this my friend is your masterpiece. Meaningful, well thought and beautifully presented. Well done sir!
Your graphic art chops are absolutely mind blowing in every single video you put out. If you sold displates or posters of some of your major compositions from videos I'd buy so many of them holy crap.
I'm not a creative person, and I don't think I could ever be an artist. That being said, I deeply appreciate artists because your art adds to my human experience. I think Inside did that in many ways for me and it affected me in ways I can't fully articulate, but I think a tangible effect the special has is how many conversations it started. I think it's great that you and other artists made and still make videos discussing Inside. Each and everyone of you relating it to another piece of art, media or to personal experiences that are different in one way or another added to how I viewed the special. I saw people using clips and music from Inside to talk about their mental health, others to talk about their art or quarantine or personal relationship with the internet. All this is great. I think artists are continuously inspired by each other, and I find this to be a vaccinating quality. Art brings people together and creates connections where there has been none before. Thank you and all the other artists for your work. I'm glad you made this video.
I've seen all of your videos and really appreciate your growth both from a production perspective and from an analytical perspective. Thank you for creating such thoughtful and beautiful works of art. This might be your best work. Thanks again.
I loved the video! The other thing about Everything Now is that the album perfectly loops, creating an endless album of infinite content
I have been publishing music since December 2020. I love making my music. I’ve made music about my own struggles and issues using tools like FL Studio. I know it isn’t the biggest thing in the world but really all I want is to help someone who’s dealt with the same struggles and issues as me with my art. Because then, that’s when I know I have made it in life
One of the best product I've seen on UA-cam this year
This is one of my top 3 favorite videos from you. Thank you so much for this
Dude, you are literally my favourite creator and you seem like a genuinely cool person and I look foreward to your videos more for your personality than anything else (the visuals and actual analysis are amazing too) and you genuinely seem more human than most channels and I really appreciate and respect that.
Holy smokes, man. This is probably the best video I’ve seen in a LONG time. This coming from someone who has, unfortunately, seen a lot of content. If you do happen to see this, please know that this video means the world to me. Your honesty here was a breath of fresh air. It’s good to see other people having the same funny feelings. It’s a life saver.
Anyways, thanks.
I definitely agree with what you’ve said about ‘that funny feeling’, but i think there’s so much more to it than that.
To me ‘that funny feeling’ is a kind of an inherently indescribable ironic tension that exists in the space between all the things that bo is naming. I think it’s the humbling understanding of exactly where the path we’ve chosen is taking us, and the recognition that there’s just too much noise (be it endless content or infighting, etc.) for anyone to really be able to say anything meaningful that can cut through and help us turn things around before it’s too late.
I think it’s all that and more. Like the Tao, it is inherently indescribable, so all bo can do is name the things that give him this feeling, to draw it out in us, and once it’s there, call our attention to ‘that funny feeling’.
Bo really created a deeply depressing masterpiece with that one.
When I think about what I want to create, I'm always in a battle between what I want, and what the consumer wants. More and more over time, what I want has shifted to align with what the consumer wants. I write stories that I know people want to hear, rather than the ones that I want to write. I've scrapped dozens, maybe hundreds of ideas because they don't live up to the infinite well of competition out there. If something doesn't seem like a million dollar idea from the outset, it's hard to bother with it.
But I'm also in a lucky place. I don't struggle to feed myself, I don't have major responsibilities. More and more lately, I've been reminding myself that I don't have to yield to what is expected, and I can just do what I want. I don't need to take brand deals, I don't need to appease the algorithms, I don't need to make money. I can just focus on making my world better, and hopefully sharing that to others.
This video really helped me find a footing not just on what I /want/ to do, but /why/ I should do it. For myself, and for others.
Part of that comes in this comment - Normally I'd rewrite it to start off more punchy, or be more targeted, or whatever is expected of me, but really, this isn't for anyone but me. I'll probably put this in a document somewhere and revisit it in the future.
this is hands down the most visually pleasing polyphonic video
Superb stuff once again, man. You really are one of my favourite creators on this platform
Thank you for the introduction of "Arcade fire" . Loved Bo and now I can watch something related. Liked your overall analysis.
I have been struggling for years with the problems described in this video(combined with other emotional damage) and when I experienced Inside by myself, both as album and in its entirety i resonated with the whole thing but couldnt understand why. This video helped fill out so much of that I couldnt put to words so im grateful for another amazing polyphonic video, thank you so much for making an artistic expression that can help me feel less hollow to this absolute insanity of a world.
Such an incredible video. Very well done, Polyphonic! Thank for this piece of honest art 🙏
You did an amazing job speaking to everyone and expressing just how important it is to make sure everyone makes honest art. I know it did for me and it is something I am very thankful that you shared and brought to the forefront. Thank you.
This was an amazing video that deserves more views, thank u for making it man
This was amazing, great work Polyphonic! This one really hit me and I related to a lot of the emotions you described through your analysis. Thank you for your art.
I gotta say, usually I can't watch a video longer than 8-ish minutes (how fitting huh?) But theres something about your videos that just drags me in and I can't stop watching it
Your style is incredible! Thank you for making good art.
This is genuinely an amazing video essay. It truly made me get up and make art.
this is my favourite video on youtube
Man, I love your work. Feel it to the bone. You're getting better with every video. Much love and respect!
Beautiful video, man. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Continue making good art.
I uh ... I love you man. Your work is wonderful and I'm filled with emotion after every video.
This was genuinely such an inspirational video thank you so much for your work! Honestly got me emotional and motivated at the same time, never had quite an experience in all my years of endless content consumption. Keep making great art, Polyphonic!
Poly, that was an incredible video. Gaiman is also my favorite writer and I was thinking of the exact same speech before you quoted it. His work was part of what helped me get through a whole lot of stuff in 2020 and 21. Thank you for all your good art.
Oooooo boi oh boi. This hit close to home. Thank you so much for making it. One of your best works.
This is probably my favorite video of music analysis ever. Never before has the internet influenced culture and how we think and behave.
This was good art.
This video is a valuable masterpiece and i mean this: Thank you.
Phenomenal video as always. Thanks Poly!
We need art. Art is human. Art is soothing. Art is what we cling to when the lights dim. Art inspires people to get up and change the world. Please keep making these videos. They have gotten me through my last few years of depression. I love them. I love talking to people (offline) about them. Honestly, you have no idea how many dinner parties and pub nights we've discussed things from your essays. It helps us understand the world around us, collapsing or not. It helps me regulate my dopamine. It sounds trite, but it pulls me back from the edge when things get too much. Thank you for your content.
Another great video, once again! Polyphonic also keeps making better and better graphics 🤩
