I moved into a new shop with some massive blank walls. I thought I would break in the new space by building a robot to paint a huge mural for me. Hope you like it!

    "If at first you don't succeed, reduce your expectations until you're a success" šŸ¤£ this is the best thing I've heard in ages
  • @starduck2
    The fact that you keep trying to impress your wife with random inventions that are not made for her, makes you my hero!

    The machine yelling out "HELP" over and over again made me bust a gut laughing omg

    We must connect Janksy to a livestream and let the chat choose the pixels
  • Thatā€™s a really cool projectā€¦ but my simple lizard brain was way more enamored by the kiwico lockbox. I might have to pick that up for my son. Congratulations on the successful move and the coming addition to your family.

    Ahh, variable dot size technology. In my years in commercial huge format printing that was the buzzword. The ability to get smaller and smaller dot sizes for sharper, clearer images. Plus we went from CMYK to CMYK plus light CMYK, to CMYK plus light CMYK plus white so we could on the fly adjust for the colour of the substrate to maintain brightness. So we had 9 coloured inks and variable dot size.

    You create amazing things and you're an inspiration. Thank you!

    I am again utterly impressed. What impresses me the most is your absolutely insane pace with these projects - normally I would expect each of your projects to take at least 6 months, with 3 people and at least 10 update videos. Instead you release a completed project every month (okay, this time two months, but including a complete moving!!!) How do you manage to be so fast and efficient at it? Are you actually doing everything yourself or are you getting some help with stuff? In any case, its mindblowing.
  • The ā€œhey itā€™s me, Destinā€ killed mešŸ˜‚ love the content you both put out and canā€™t get enough of the casual brilliance you both put out into the world. Thank you.
  • As you were talking about color theory and light, I was like ā€¦no way heā€™s going RGB. Heā€™s gonna do CMYK for sure. And then you adjusted and I actually felt super smart. Cuz like this is genius level stuff and I canā€™t even compare.

    This is basically how impressionist and expressionist art works. If you did this with actual paintbrush strokes you could create impressionist masterpieces on your wall.
  • @Nifty42
    ā€œRemember kids, if at first you donā€™t succeed - reduce your expectations until you get to the point that youā€™re a success!ā€ Loved it.
  • The random cameo of Destin from Smarter Everyday because he was a genuinely nice person and helped you move just makes me like Destin more
  • @SJL30
    Shane I dont know exactly how to tell you this. But your a freaking Legend. Your mind just works in a way all of us normal people will never understand, but wish like hell we could. Thanks for all these projects you come up with and all your hard work to complete them no matter how many plan b's or little tweaks here and there it takes.
  • @InservioLetum
    Honestly this is just magical. If I had a partner do this with my face, I would be in tears. On the one hand admittedly nerdy beyond ALL caricature, but on the other, so ineffably sweet and heartfelt, that I can't help but be jealous of your partner. I know he may be tiresome sometimes, but you have an absolute prize of a partner here, hun.

    The reason black is "K" in CMYK is that K actually stands for Key, which is actually any dark color. We usually use black because it is neutral but you can change it to basically any dark enough color and get different looks!
  • "If at first you don't succeed, lower your expectations" is actually good advice. People tend to set the bar too high. Then they quit, thinking they aren't good enough. You have to learn to walk before you can run.
  • @taktlos1743
    The "K" in CMYK stands for "Keycolor". As you mentioned, the mix out of Cyan, Magenta and Yellow won't be black. Therefore is the keycolor, in your case black. While printing you also could swap out the black keycolor for an other special color, a metallic gold for example. You still print CMYK. :)
