      he might be good at not dying in his projects, but the concept of making cotton candy is just too novel for him
      to be fair, if I was given a cotton candy maker I’d probably look at least as confused as he was, then promptly die in a horrible lab accident that I have no business getting into

    Im not a scintest but ive tried my hand at making cotton candy from other types of comercialized candies. One thing I think caused the diffrence in density and burnt taste is the size of the sugar. Large peices of sugar can cause for an uneven melting process. Which can cause peices of the sugar to burn and become dense. I would suggest blending the sugar into small granulated peices. This might make a more balanced heating process; eliminating the burnt taste and fluffier cotton candy.

      You should check out some of his videos on his Nile Blue channel. They are less formal and he talks with more emotion in his voice. You kind of get a little hint of that in this video when he is tasting the sugar and making the cotton candy. I think the voice he uses for most of his Nile Red videos is his "Educational Narration" voice.

Sure he makes some fun "just cause" experiments, but he still speaks in a serious way and doesn't speak like the typical clickbaiting UA-camr. Definitely still feels like a chemist who originally decided to make an educational channel.

  • @ryanawol77
    @ryanawol77 3 роки тому +3297

    While it is fantastic that you're trying to be more independent with your monetization, I think it's also OK for you to continue getting sponsorships. This is due to your "long-form" content relative to the typical ~10minute UA-camrs out there. These youtubers would spend 2-4 minutes talking about a product they may or may not use/like, then proceed to give us 6-8 minutes of content including the intro and outro. So because of your channel's long-form videos, it is very appropriate for you to have it sponsored by a company or 2, given that it wouldn't eat up a bunch of meaningful video length.

    • @lindsey2542

      Of course alchemy is just chemistry, in today's world people look down on that word, but in the year 1500, there was no difference, alchemists were just chemists, and some of their goals may have been infeasible or impossible, but others were not, same as it is today I'm sure, it was simply two famous notions that were misguided at the time, that other metals might be simply turned into gold and that there may be some quick life hack to curing aging, but chemists are wrong about things today too, we don't as a result define them as being something other than chemists.
