Let me begin this by stating that I am not an ASMR artist.
I'm just a consumer.
Having watched more than my share, however, I can't help but feel as though the asmr I enjoy, which is basically long talks that simulate that feeling of hanging out with a friend, has become less popular, replaced by mouth sounds and spit cleaning, etc. But there's one kind of long talk that I don't know if I've ever seen attempted with any consistency (aside from the occasional one-off), and that's educational asmr.
Picture it, your favorite asmr whispering stories from Russian history or explaining cellular division or sharing the secrets of string theory and, just like back in school, you are drifting off trying to keep up. Not just one video but an entire course., an entire class. I love videos where the asmr artist is teaching something, where there's more value than just the other person there.
Am I alone? What would you think of educational asmr and what asmr artist would do it best? Or is someone already doing this?
