In 2015, a mysterious YouTube channel appeared and began uploading videos at an alarming rate. Some were only a few seconds long, some lasted hours. Some were silent, some had audio soundscaping, some contained the muffled voice of a man reading out numbers and letters. The sequences of images were seemingly random selections of what looks like abstract computer art...
What does it all mean, if anything? What's with the connection to Greek and Roman mythology? Why does Matt sound suspiciously like the muffled voice in the videos? None of this will be revealed in the podcast, but we'll speculate about it all the same!
