Chapter 6: How does the concept of aphantasia affect the hosts?
And if you don't know who that is, I'm not going to explain it. My name is Bob and I'm your host. And this is distractible. I'm hosting because I won the last one because the way this shit show works is, I mean, the way this show works, regular show works, two people compete and one person hosts and whoever wins between the two competitors, they host the next one.
Unless they don't, which has happened before, but not a lot, but it can happen, but it won't. But it could. But I'm joined by today's competitors and future hosts, Mark and Wade. Hello, I'm Mark.
I'm the other one.
Chapter 7: What are the challenges of visualizing smells and tastes?
Hello, other one. I'm dad. Hi, dad. Oh man, that's a sentence I've not gotten to utter in 25 years. Yeah, hey, wait a minute. Holy moly, man.
Not quite the reveal in the last season here.
I can't believe that's the bombshell for the last episode ever. I've been doing that a lot with James lately, so sorry, it just leaks out. How do you cut the black in real life? Do you have like a curtain you carry around? Yeah, it's just a big blanket. You know the trick with the birds where you're like, oh.
Chapter 8: How do motor skills and imagination intersect in performance?
oh and then you throw it up and you run away and then the bird is all what the fuck i say with dogs not birds but i know what you're talking about it's all the same babies birds dogs it's all the same they're all the same before we get into the main episode topic we do small talk how you guys doing i've reached a funny new level of fame what's so funny about it where every sentence i speak can be misinterpreted to make a headline for an article
Not that this hasn't happened before. Mark, why are you sparking so many controversies? What are you doing? Oh, man. I don't know. I don't know. So I get a text from Wes, you know, of Burning Tractor, the VFX company for Iron Lung that did all of that. And he tells me, hey, I know what you're talking about here, but I'm getting a lot of messages asking why you fired us on Iron Lung.
What?
So for those that don't know, Wes is the owner of Burning Tractor, a company that I've worked with on VFX for all of the bigger projects I've done with Heist and Space and now Iron Lung. I was on a separate podcast called The Lemonade Stand with Doug Doug and his various friends of whose name I definitely remember. And this isn't a bad look. Here they are now. Alien Atriarch.
Wait, Markiplier left Distractible to go to Lemonade Stand and then he burned a tractor and fired his VFX team? Yeah, that's pretty much it.
That's the hard-hitting news we report here. Oh my god. See, the headline of this article is Markiplier ditched the Iron Lung VFX company over budget and turned his own bathroom into a render farm with old servers from eBay. Which is not what I said at all. What I said was, we were subcontracting a VFX company to do some of the simulations for the blood and the opening sequence of the movie.
The problem was the iterations that I needed because there were some translation differences between hiring them and what I would say I want and what they would execute upon. The problem with simulations is they're incredibly computationally intense. They require a lot of hardware specialized for just doing simulations. It's not just about GPU power, it's about distributed CPU power.
So the fidelity of the shot, it's like, this is all me in. I'm reading my own quote, which is in this article here.
And I remember that that was accurate. That was just a quote because I did actually watch that. And I somehow I'm remembering word for word what you said about that part. He said he fired his blood company and forced his fans to donate blood for his movie. Pretty much. While you were saying it, I was thinking, man, Mark complained so much about how much he fucking hated Wes.
