Thank you so much for making such a fantastic video featuring our book! Altamira is an incredibly rich and diverse biosphere, it's been super fun to open it up to so many fantastic artists! I hope everyone here will enjoy REFUGIUM in its final form!
Fun fact: Altamira is the name of a city in Pará, Brazil
@@victorrt WHAT?
@@victorrtIt is?
@@SStrawbery yes haha
@@victorrt I was just going to type the same thing lmao
I’m so excited you covered Altamira!! I’m an artist that gets to take part in this awesome project, I can’t wait for everyone to check this out!! This is the BIGGEST spec evo collab ever
It’s you I’ve seen you 😀
Leeeeeeettttttttttttsssss gggggggooooooo
Can you make a spec evo About my Profile picture. I know is a robot😅 But Make it organic organic. I'm a big fan of your work.
@@Terraformer-17 lol, lmao.
Sup cas3
ELEFANTITO LITERALLY MEAN LITTLE ELEPHANT, THIS IS SO CUTE
It means lil cute elephant 😂
@@OmarArias-mt8kmtimestamp 😭😭
It was a joy contributing art to this project! Awesome to see an entire video dedicated to it!!
The name came from altamira caves?
Can't wait to visit there! Pack your bags everyone, tickets are on me!
Thanks man
THANKS!!!😂
yayayay
Thanks for the tickets dude!
I'll take you up on that sir! or mama!
I love the cameos from other spec evolution artists in this project!
I like how the whole "Terraforming an alien planet to make it more suitable for human life" thing is basically one giant metaphor for real-world habitat destruction. Granted, in this case, they're technically just replacing an alien ecosystem with a more Earth-like ecosystem; nevertheless, the parallels are still very much there. There's even the Kicking Wolverton, which was arguably spread to Altamira by accident. If it was accidental, then they'd be a parallel to many invasive species of real-world barnacles, which were inadvertently spread to inland regions when they clung to the bottoms of ships.
It’s even more directly comparable to rats, which humans spread by ships to many regions they weren’t native too, especially islands where they dealt massive devastation.
That's not what the metaphor is at all bro
@@jelqsensei Then share what it is instead of just going "you're wrong", "bro". Unless you're just BS:ing, of course?
@@mokarokas-1727 you never read the bible heathen? the parallel they're going for is pretty obvious
Just think of Australia.
I'm in Europe, but I get anxiety sometimes thinking about how Australia's biosphere has been permanently altered, with the addition of so many placental mammals, that will likely never leave (foxes, rabbits, CATS, dingoes, horses, camels, deer, cattle, banteng, buffalo).
I love how so many spec bio creators like Koseman and Ries got together for this, filling in not just the artwork, but the biological info too. What a team!
Heck yeah, more spec evo content
İ did kinda miss it too, the philosophy vids are still good but i like these because they don't make me have an existencial crisis
This looks so cool! The blend of terraformed and not terraformed is always an interesting take!
Stuff like this brings me back to the good old days, reading Heavy Metal and finding articles in the 'Galactic Geographic' docu-fiction by Karl Kofoed.
The art and the way it was written like a scientific paper was such a joy!
You ever read fiction from the "Battletech" setting?
Life is horriflyingly and disgustingly beautiful
i love how all the artists get their own in universe rpg roles
Yes that’s SO cool!
Ngl i wish we got hour long vids in this channel, i would sit my ass down in heartbeat and watch em fully when they come out, the current short ones are great still, love em
Fuck! And I just beat my addiction to supporting amazing spec evo projects! Damn you CA! Damn you!
I saw Jay Eaton's research in their blog but didn't expect you to cover this project so fast! Great video, thank you for bringing more speculative biology to us
I'm so in love with Pinwheels!!!! Absolutely the best insect-parallel i've seen in spec evo works!
Ikr, I wanna get a board and stat collecting those lil guys.
Man, how sick would a video covering Eaton's Runaway To The Stars project be~!? That work of theirs is such a delight, being more slice-of-life than just some grand, galactic epic.
Your the first person I watch after I beat cancer!!!
Congratulations, Gabby!! I wish you a long happy healthy cancer free life!

“He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody”
Wow, this felt like the Super Smash Bros of spec bio creators!!! It is very cool to see so many artists working in such a unique and expansive project; congratulations for all the wonderful work everyone did, including Curious Archive for sharing it with us ^^
I loved this world and its lifeforms! I had seen some of the artist share their work on it on instagram a couple days ago, it was fun to see them portrayed here as researchers and experts!
Yes! More spec xeno and spec Evo!
This is SO cool, the Avengers of spec evo artists all together on a wonderful book, thanks for covering it man !
Makes me think of "what if" sun spiders in Oregon, neat! I love the pinwheel designs especially!
Curious Archive, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
Thanks
These videos where you cover some spec-evo or world-building project are my favorites.
Ah yes, canon of my Stellaris playtroughs.
Congratulations CA on being the first UA-cam channel I’ve actually turned on notifications for. I need my curiosity fix!!
11:44 the badger is so very cuuuute
Yes!!! Love seeing Simon Roy featured on this channel. Been a huge fan of his specevo work since coming across his dinosauroids design project years ago.
Alex Reis! Jay Eaton! Simon Roy!
This project is PACKED
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
It's incredible that all of my goats come together for this project 🐐🔥
I love this style of video where you document the flora/fauna if a functional world from the perspective of someone in the world. I loved your subnautica videos and this one is great, keep up the good work!
More spec evo, my favorite subgenre
I've loved your recent content but I can't understate how happy I am to see another world building deep dive video!
Some people watching this channel need to sub right now, it deserves way more subs. Thank you for divulging such quality content. I still appreciate learning about Simon Stålenhag from you.
Could you please make a video on the ecosystem of Dathomir
Always a great time seeing coverage of these incredible speculative evolution books
I've been thoroughly enjoying your recent video essays, but it's always nice to see a return to your roots, Archivist!
I really like the alien designs. They don't feel too earth-like but also not too alien.
As much as I love your more theoretical videos, it’s awesome to see you getting back into alien/creature biology!
The wait for your videos is always worth it , keep it up man
Welcome to planet Altamira! They can smell your fear
Fascinating insight into a terraformed planet
this is my favorite kind of curious archive video, in depth information on a speculative ecosystem, more of this sort of thing please
I want more of this type of spec evo related video's, please, explore more projects, its really motivating and also fun to watch.😅 And thank you for this entry in archive....
In a world dominated by model generated content, it's refreshing to see such carefully crafted material like this ! Thanks !
14:55 This is world building at it's peak, one of the most produced pieces of literature since the Industrial Revolution are Agricultural Bulletins, agricultural organisations collect better technics for planting and creating livestock, on a planet like Altamira this would be a crucial piece of shared knowledge for all colonists.
Your videos are always such a treat👍
This is so lovingly made! I love that it takes itself seriously at just the right moments to really sell the buy-in. I can't wait for this project to come out!!
Love the references to the authors and their other spec evo projects! This looks like an amazing spec evo project and definitely a book I would read!
Absolutely amazing, the fauna are all so beautifully drawn and realistic, truly think this is one of my favorite worlds yet.
this is just what i needed! THANK YOU!!
This one is loaded with top notch artwork.
This looks like South scrimshaw. Haven't watched yet but I'm always happy when I see one of your videos cover a project
This is awesome man, keep up the great work
This is my favourite UA-cam channel / independent media.
this upload just made my whole week ❤️
I AM SO HAPPY YOU RETURNED TO THE OLD FORMAT!
Please do more videos like this I really enjoy them
The art in this is gorgeous. I hope they have great success
Awesome vid man!
I’m so excited to see another SpecZoo project in the channel!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I am so happy you did this! Simon is a wonderful guy and such a creative powerhouse his world building is just brilliant ! this made my night! 😄
love your stuff, thank you for the entry
This project is SO cool, keep it up!!
*finally*, something to do that isn't scrolling
Fr, i stopped watching shorts just yesterday, and only watching long videos, to cure my brain, i feel much better already, next step is just cutting out social media all together.
Omg u have no idea
Love your channel
Instant classic, thank you
glad to see these classic speculative biology vids return!
Great video!
This has to be one of the most diverse and impressive speculative-biology projects yet.
I can't express how much I love this setting! 💚
It's just fascinating how people are coming up with awsome speculative biology that leaves your heads scratching.
Mr archive, thank you for making videos
Your videos are such a blessing. One day I am going to make my own world of speculative evolution, inspired by watching this channel.
Yay, Jay Eaton mentioned! I'm still waiting for the day you cover their setting, Runaway to the Stars. Not only does it have really interesting posthuman designs, it also has a number of nonhuman sentient aliens with complex history and biology all interacting with one another, which I think would be very interesting to see-- considering most projects covered so far only have one sentient alien species.
You have become my favorite channel in the scope of one 1.001 videos.
you know it is going to be a good day when you post a vid !!!!!!!!
More curious archive! motivation once more!
so happy that i recognized a lot of these artists!!
These fellas feel pretty fresh! Excellent stuff.
Your other work is interesting, but this video stands out to me being so fast-paced compared to your others. I like it a lot. I hope you do more like it. love your work CA!
This is so awesome 🤩
Keep up the good work
I backed this on kickstarter and I can't wait to read it!
The goat is back
i love to find more of Alex rise's work :]
Altamira sounds amazing!
New curious archive video 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
this makes me realise just how distinctive ries' artstyle is
Yo those are the legitimate best bug analogies ive EVER seen for a scifi project. Like theyre common enough looking that you can point one out and go "look a pinwheel" just like bugs BUT, they arent just like small animals or juat bugs again, they have a distinctly alien feel to them. And then you see the SPIRAL THORN QUEEN, and i was just flabbergasted at how creative and visually striking it was at the same time without lessening either. Madly impressive stuff here.
the name Altamira has to be a play on words for All tomorrow's
omg this is so beautiful!
Your vid are literally my inspiration ó//ò
i think you should make a video about Runaway to the Stars. the setting is super fascinating, and now that Jay has started publicly releasing their comic, it would be perfect time :D
Wow :O, I really love this kind of video. Biology is so cool :D
The intro is fantastic.
YAAAYYY HE UPLOADED AGAIN!!!
Good video
