Rosemary Ainslie Circuit Demonstration June 29, 2013 Video Segments

[TinselKoala]

The NERDs actually managed.... sort of.... to put something up on the 29th. I was able to record the four hour demonstration stream on YouTube... but the quality was very very poor. They actually used a _cellphone_ to video and stream the demonstration, and there were many audio and video dropouts and glitches. Plus, they simply bailed, put down the phone and then hung up for over an hour, about 2/3 the way through, then just when it was getting really interesting again.... they stopped, literally in mid-sentence.

So I went through the four hours and excerpted the tasty bits. I think I got all of the actual action that actually was actually sent out on the YT, but there must have been more, because it seems like they kept on talking after the YT feed stopped. Of course I have no idea what went on then.

So anyway... this thread will hopefully discuss the video, the demonstration, the results, what it means for Ainslie's claims, and etc.
There is a lot of comedy here.... you will see what I mean when you watch the videos.

I have NOT edited these clips other than clipping them out of the main 4-hour video. The quality is as you see, and is not my fault. The audio sucks and you might have to turn up your volume, but on the very last one, the Weir episode, you will need to turn it down again. (Weir episode coming in a few hours.)

First a few of my videos for background, illustrating the Figure 3 problem and my guesses as to what is up with that.

The last one is particularly important as it shows the test Weir used at the end of the Ainslie demo.

Next we start the Highlights Reel from the Ainslie demonstration itself. I have tried to restrain my ...er.... editorializing but these first two... I just could not resist.

Scoposcopy 1: The Ainslie presenter Donny Martin doing something... I don't know what.... to the oscilloscope. don't feel like you have to watch this one to the end.... only her live audience was forced to do that.

Next: Frequency Determination using the Digital Oscilloscope.  This is the funniest thing I've seen in quite some time. Definitely you must watch this entire clip. Turn up the volume.

 A Little more background from me, so that you will be a Little more prepared... much more prepared than the NERDs... for the Little surprise coming up ahead.

Now, at last, we start getting into the meat of the demonstration: the attempts to produce the Figure 3 scopeshot, and Donny's Rap.

That is all I have ready for now. The rest are longer: Rosemary's Swan Song, and Mister Weir Takes Charge. These will be up sometime later this afternoon, if I can manage to stay awake.

Please: comment, discuss, laugh, poke fun, analyze, tell your friends, ask questions, whatever.
