I've been posting short videos on youtube showing specific turntable sequencer setups, extracted from my phd technical video but also showing extended versions. Partly for people who might not be interested in watching the whole thing, partly cos the clips had to be very short in the original and some of them merit longer viewing/listening, and partly so try and stay afloat in the algorithm (a single long video will peak in a day then drop to a trickle of views very quickly).

This one is probably my favourite, and I'm surprised it hasn't got more traction. Three separate sequences on geared platters driven by the main turntable. Drums, chords, bassline. Ratios 1:2 and 3:4
The chord sequence changes slightly by the end of the video as one of the plastic arc segments slips out of position a bit.

Also interesting to see youtube's stats. clip which has had most views was featured on a content aggregate site, so drew in a lot of new views from outside of the platform.

@grahamdunning one of my most-watched videos is a recording of a sewing machine I made, which was randomly linked in a long-form reddit story.

@yannseznec Yeah that happens. A friends' art group's very old project, a weird re-enactment of Star Wars Episode 1 whilst wearing masks, or something - got hundreds of thousands of views after someone on Reddit found it.
