About
Science, fiction and thought provoking ideas. With a little imagination and inventiveness it is possible to improve the world. All provided by your host M J Murcott, some viewers come here for the ASMR, but I am not deliberately creating content for those wanting to experience ASMR. If you like what you find here feel free to share it with your friends, if you think there is a topic I should cover feel free to comment, I am always looking for new subjects. From the 5th Feb 2016 I have been using an upgraded camera, however due to the large number of videos using the older equipment these will still be retained even if the quality isn't as good. Recent changes in lighting have again improved the videos so they look less "ghostly" as one person described it. The channels page now features "the toast train" a podcast I did a couple of interviews on which can be found on the live section of their channel.
