    Jay Springett talks with first-generation digital filmmaker, artist, and The Spirited Man creator Van Neistat about aphantasia, the mind’s eye, YouTube filmmaking, and the imagination as an editing bay.Together they explore cinematic “hard cuts” in thought, visualising lost objects in physical space, text and video as raw material, setting creative boundaries with AI, and why the YouTube algorithm might ultimately be a mirror of ourselves.Also in this episode:* Typewriters, ribbon ink, and treating text as physical raw material* Why traditional cinema is Formula One, but YouTube is professional skateboarding* Van Neistat on The Spirited Man, Tom Sachs, Casey Neistat, and first generation digital filmmaking* Visualising to find lost items in physical space* Creative constraint, AI boundaries, and the “good enough” threshold* Tom Sachs’ Crusty Seal of ApprovalQUOTES“The camera is a hard drive, and the way you write on it is by showing it things.”“The algorithm is us. That’s you buddy. You have a problem with your algorithm? That’s you.”“The cinematic world either works like the real world, the perception world, to such a degree that we aren’t even conscious of how we go about perceiving things; or it just works like the dream world.”“A feature film is 70 ideas. These long form videos are 20 ideas, and figuring out how they fit together, that’s a fun part of the process.”ABOUT THE GUESTA pioneer in digital filmmaking, VAN NEISTAT made his first internet video, The Holland Tunnel, in 2000. He went on to collaborate with New York City artist Tom Sachs, directing a series of short films shown at the Guggenheim Museum in Berlin. Van has since directed dozens more films for the Tom Sachs Studio. In 2010 HBO aired The Neistat Brothers, an 8-episode series of short videos made entirely by Van and his brother Casey Neistat. For the past decade he has collaborated with masters and traveled the world as a journeyman filmmaker, conceiving and writing his latest project: THE SPIRITED MAN.LINKS* The Spirited Man on YouTube* Follow Van on Instagram* Support Van on Patreon* The Spirited Man Shop* Kevin Munger’s YouTube ApparatusSubscribe to Experience.Computer* Apple Podcasts* Spotify* Pocket CastsIf you enjoy Experience.Computer and want to support Jay’s independent research and production, consider supporting his work or picking up a copy of his zine, Start Select Reset.PERMANENTLY MOVEDPermanently Moved is an audio-only podcast about computers, their consequences, and the worlds they make possible.

    Host Jay Springett and guest Marco Giancotti explore aphantasia, SDAM, and spatial memory. They discuss writing as thinking, cognitive frameworks, and why looking at a picture of a sour plum (Umeboshi) doesn't make everyone's mouth water.Then they discuss:Aphantasia: Navigating spatial presence without a "mind's eye." • SDAM: Living without the ability to "re-live" past personal memories. • The "Swoosh": Using mental maps to trigger sudden cascades of information. • Digital Reality: Why browser windows feel as "real" as physical books. • Thinking Tools: Using "Framing" and "Virtual Physics" as cognitive rule sets. • Culture & Code: How Japan's cultural framings change the "feel" of apps like Line.A huge thank you to Marco for responding to my Bluesky DM after I spent an afternoon and evening binge-reading his fantastic blog Aether Mug. Which is definitely not about science, philosophy, philosophers, languages, Japan, or picture frames, or boxes, (though you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise).QUOTES“ I tried but no image no picture appeared in my mind.”“My perception of what I feel that is happening, is that there’s a separation between this the actual sensory information, and how you accept it and how you internalise it ”*During COVID, I was flying and I went to Italy and then flew back to Japan. We had to take a test to see if we were infected, and basically, we had to spit in a little vial. There was this little cabin or space where you could spend a few minutes producing your saliva. In each of these little cubicles, they put a picture of Umeboshi. Which is a kind of dried peach—extremely sour. For most people, just looking at it is enough for them to produce a lot of saliva, so it makes it easy for them to spit into the vial. For me, it didn’t do anything at all.”“I have this definition of framings as the things that you take to exist in a certain thought. Because you cannot think about the whole world and everything that you know about the world at any given moment, you have to focus on a few things depending on what you're trying to do.”ABOUT THE GUESTMarco Giancotti is a thinking-tool artisan, writer, and engineer.He is the author of Plankton Valhalla, a collection of deep essays about the Universe, and Aether Mug, his blog about cognition, science, culture, philosophy, and other mysterious things like that. He lives in Japan and has aphantasia, just like Jay.IN YOUR MINDHas this interview sparked any thoughts or questions about your own mind’s eye, creative process, or inner experience?

    Jay Springett leads internet culture reporter and ethnographer Katherine Dee through a series of imaginative exercises.

    Then they discuss:

    * Early Internet experiences

    * The weight of words in software programs

    * The feeling of being inside/outside online communities

    *  The need for experiencing silence and boredom

    Big thanks to Katherine for coming on the show! She actually came down with something right after we finished recording.

    Experience.Computer is a slow-radio programme exploring aphantasia, creativity, and the imagination.

    QUOTES

    “I’ve given so much of myself to the internet. I tasted the fairy food, and I am returning to a mortal world that is different than the one I left.”

    “When I hit publish, it feels separate from me. It feels like it’s not mine anymore.”

    *“I’ve always been a big proponent of the internet as a place. Especially in the early days, there was a sense that you were going somewhere.”

    “Silence is so valuable. Just a few moments a day where you’re not scrolling TikTok or looking at your phone changes how you think.”
