Why do you watch my videos? Get paid to say why!

My videos belong to a genre called ā€œSlow TVā€, where thereā€™s no talking or music and the video shows usually an ordinary event taking place. Even though my channel is smaller, thereā€™s a lot of engagement for this kind of videos on YouTube. Some people just donā€™t get why do people watch such videos, so much so that PhD students like Kees Smeets [1] are doing research on why do people watch these! Right now, Kees is conducting one-on-one chats to understand this better.

If youā€™re interested in helping Kees with his research by answering his questions in an informal chat, heā€™ll send a 10$ Amazon Gift Card as gratuity, upon completion. The chat will take about 30 minutes and you donā€™t need to show your face. If youā€™re interested, take a few seconds to fill the qualifying survey below [2] and he will get in touch with you if thereā€™s a good fit!

NB: Please note your participation will not result in any financial gain for myself. Kees has requested if Iā€™m happy to share about his interviews, and Iā€™m doing just that!

Recently, I've spent some time in and around Galle. Expect me spamming more coastal vibes!

My next video will be a sunrise drive through a forest road, recorded sometime back - when petrol wasn't a rare commodity.

In the video, sometimes, there's so much sun glare and I was hoping if I could put down a sun visor even while editing!

Yesterday, I've walked on the streets of Kandy, and recorded how they look like during the current economic crisis. I'm hoping to post it today.

Spoilers: Fuel queues throughout the streets and very few vehicles driving, hence, literally walking "on" the streets.

Hey everyone! For the past few months, I couldn't be as active as I would like to due to some personal reasons - I've been doing two jobs (and still do). I'm back again and hoping to find some time to post again consistently!
