Posting this here too and a little update. Thank you to all that bought a Gneiss Box, the last ones sold out quickly and they are all on their way. Total proceeds were about $2,667 and I rounded up to $3k and made the donation.
I’m headed out to do some remote field work in Australia for the next month and have some re-edits of the coal and diamond episode as shorts that will release while I’m away. I have some videos on color theory, mountain scale, and others that I’ll be working on when I get back.

The first batch of gneiss shirts came in and all the rock descriptions written. Thank you cards are also done and I’m assembling everything and shipping them out tomorrow. The second batch of shirts will be here in a few days so all the Gneiss boxes should be on their way soon.

Hey Everyone! If you bought a Gneiss Box and didn't tell me the shirt size in the message, I need to know that. You have an email from me, please reply. If you don't know what I'm talking about, at the end of the April fools video there is a product, its real. There are some left if you are interested and all proceeds are being donated to the nature conservancy.

The Loosest Of Gooses did an interview with me recently and part one is out on his channel. We discuss my background and thoughts on color theory and look at a few of my builds. The second part will cover more of the geology topics we discussed. Check it out and check out goose's channel.

Hey everyone, hope you are doing ok. I’m busy working on a bigger geology episode which will be coming out in a few weeks, but in the mean time I made a video with Amos Redstone talking about adding weathering mechanics into Minecraft.

I spent two weeks working with some paleontologist in Montana last month and I recorded a few videos talking about what I was doing and why. Nothing scripted but I put together a quickly edited unlisted video from it. I'm close to finishing the world for the next geology video, its taken quite a bit of time to figure out some of the effects but I think it will turn out pretty well. watch video on watch page

I wanted to follow up on some things from the education video. The Education Edition developers contacted me to discuss the issues I brought up. We had a short meeting and I might be assisting them in some capacity to make improvements to the material reducer.
Several people have asked me to post the unlisted extra gneiss episode on education here instead of discord, which I understand. I added it to the original video description and I’ll place it here too.
