Bonus Videos & Content Update!
Added 2017-07-19 16:46:38 +0000 UTCHey Patrons!
Let us start with the pleasant things! Here are three short bonus videos! We made them for the Royal Tyrell Museum in early 2016, they are permanently displayed there in an exhibition about evolution. We finally got permission to share them. Hope it is a small bonus – let us know if you would like to see more things like that.

OK! Content update: A few weeks ago I mentioned that we were going to take a critical look at our process and see if we can get more efficient. Producing videos this year felt like walking through sirup.
We just kept spending more and more and more time on things that were not worth it. We got too picky. We still invest a lot of time into everything and I think this is the way to create truly great stuff. But there is a limit at which this stops making sense.
So we got together and talked about all these things. We made plans, drew diagrams, switched responsibilities around, got a few calendars. We set ourselves more deadlines and limitations. Lots of grown up things happened.
It worked. Our output exploded. Instead of holding us back it actually boosted our creativity.
So yeah, the long pause will soon be over. New video next week. In August there will be at least two videos (should be three but that is actually not entirely up to us). And for the rest of the year we are pushing for two videos each month. We don’t know how all of this will develop, but right now it feels good and I think we’ll push out a lot of stuff until christmas.
Thank you so much for staying with us when we got slower. -Philipp

2017-07-21 12:25:26 +0000 UTCWe're loyal to you guys because the content on the quality is great. More frequent posts would be great but I wouldn't want that at the expense of how good your stuff is. I guess what I am saying is, don't work your staff to death lol.

2017-07-20 14:56:48 +0000 UTCWith the massive die off of species, or species that are so few that they are actually called the walking dead, I wonder what will happen to the niches that they occupied, off cause they will be vacant, but what impact will the niches have - will it be closed shop or uncontrollable expansion as we have seen with invasive species in different places?

Erik Ensing
2017-07-19 19:02:40 +0000 UTCsadly the Youtube algorithm is favoring quantity over quality (Veritasium made an interesting video about that) so I hope this doesn't hurt your channel growth

2017-07-19 18:04:52 +0000 UTCIf the new process remains successful an overview of the types of things changed and why might be a good article or even video topic... Or an excuse to do a crossover with CGP Grey's Cortex podcast.
