1984 Book 2 Chapter 2 - Black & White because I stuffed editing :P

Please enjoy this episode of 1984 by George Orwell. In this chapter Winston and Julia meet and some things happen...

____________________ Personal message & why this video looks weird

As you may have noticed.... this episode does not have a proper background. I made a rather stupid mistake! But don't worry, this is due to the fact that I am really quite stupid.
I may have used a green light... on my face.. when filming on a green screen. You can imagine my horror on my face while I watched myself fade into nothingness while chrome keying the green in the background....
I literally broke rule 1 of green screens. Don't put anything GREEN in front of the SCREEN. What a silly silly boy I am.

I have decided to set this video to black and white, to at least make it a tiny bit visually interesting.
Thank you for sticking with me even though I sometimes make really stupid mistakes like this :P. I'm dumb, but at least I'm ugly too! xD

____________________ My thoughts on the chapter

This chapter has a lot of interesting themes, and is really quite intense. Though not actually in the same way as the rest of the book. Unlike the majority, this book is a victory. Though very symbolic and not practical - this victory to both Julia and Winston does seem to be significant, and definitely motivates Winston throughout the novel.
The act of sex, not even romance - but the animalistic lust involved in sex is something which gives Winston hope that people will revolt against the party. There are many things which it is possible to manipulate and brainwash out of people. Winston hopes that base sexuality cannot be brainwashed out, and will continue to secretly undermine the total authority of big brother.

Hope you liked the chapter!

Nineteen Eighty-Four is public domain in Australia. This video is intended as a public service, to educate and entertain. To provide a relaxing and effective way of communicating one of the best works of literature to a target audience (being the ASMR audience).
I have decided to put a little more production value into this series. The first series I did on my channel was of Animal Farm, and to honour this tradition I thought it right to increase my efforts. #1984 is a classic, it is mentioned all throughout culture. #Orwellian is a popular description, basically describing a situation in real life which is negative in George Orwells eyes to having a good society - as depicted in his writings.

What does ASMR Mean?
Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), sometimes auto sensory meridian response, is a tingling sensation that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. A pleasant form of paresthesia, it has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia and may overlap with frisson.

ASMR signifies the subjective experience of "low-grade euphoria" characterized by "a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin". It is most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control. A genre of videos which intend to stimulate ASMR has emerged, of which over 13 million are published on YouTube
(Wikipedia, 2020).

Its basically a tingly and relaxed feeling you get, caused by certain cues we call in the community 'triggers'. #ASMR is a massive trend, its videos, its not a job (asmrtist :O) but originally it describes the feelings of #tingles.
