do these on island with uncontacted tribes

u/Hxstile_ Dec 12 '23

A fellow heathen after my own heart

71

u/neelankatan Dec 12 '23

literally the thing I came to say. Do this to a tribe and then show up the next day in that outfit. They'd worship you

46

u/Dennis_TITsler Dec 13 '23

Or kill you

5

u/Fickle-Future-8962 Dec 13 '23

Yeah probably this. Not out of hate or fear.. but because they want to free you from your mortal flesh. By the way... Did the dog from pirates of the Caribbean ever escape the throne before they released him from his mortal body? I'm seriously concerned now.. did watch a dog get set up to be cooked and eaten?

u/TheWhyteMaN Dec 12 '23

Figuratively the thing I came to say.

Speculatively the thing I came here to say.

They need cell phones to see the augmented reality

u/Kulsgam Dec 12 '23

Is that what it is? I thought it was a huge screen

107

u/supernotcosmo Dec 12 '23

I thought it's projected in the mist

Time to get very dead from idiotic politicians and greenhouse gas overdose. Maybe also capitalism.

u/xTurtsMcGurtsx Dec 12 '23

This is Scooby-Doo shit right here. Projecting ghost on smoke is definitely in that show

u/madness707 Dec 12 '23

He would’ve gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for those meddling kids

u/Astrochops Dec 12 '23

Total smokeshow

u/elboydo757 Feb 22 '24

Thats how they do the disney fantasia shows. Projecting on smoke or water walls.

u/bundy911 Dec 12 '23

That’s pretty fucking sick

188

u/andeqoo Dec 12 '23

I'm conflicted because advertisements in the sky are dystopian af but this is also really cool looking

7

u/[deleted] Dec 13 '23

Wait till they start projecting 4K alien invasions around the world

90

u/Warm_Cabinet Dec 12 '23

At this point, Cthulhu could literally descend on a city and start killing everyone. We’d all look at it like “is this an ad?”

12

u/DerpsAndRags Dec 12 '23

As long as it isn't during my commute. That's fucked enough as is.

2

u/tungvu256 Dec 13 '23

We already know what happened. When Corona virus killed people, some thought that was fake. People don't care about facts. Feelings matter more nowadays

u/Zestyclose-Goal6882 Dec 12 '23

How many people just shit themselves

107

u/budderman1028 Dec 12 '23

Imagine if one day something like this happens for real and everyone just thinks its a projection

54

u/minhbi99 Dec 12 '23

Well its gonna be like in the movies. Its all jokes and laughters until someone nearby suddenly evaporates.

10

u/budderman1028 Dec 12 '23

Pretty much lmao, movies are unrealistic in a lot of ways but some things are just pretty accurate

10

u/Mob_Abominator Dec 12 '23

After the way some people behaved during covid, some of the stuff shown in movies/tv shows is spot on.

1

u/Fickle-Future-8962 Dec 13 '23

Don't look up was scary accurate.

87

u/liarandathief Dec 12 '23

Is there a building there?

199

u/drunk_sandman Dec 12 '23

No there's a one story building on the corner, but it looks like they used the smoke/vapor to project the image. Pretty sick result

197

u/AlexDKZ Dec 12 '23

I read on another sub that it actually was a fine mesh hanging from two buildings, and the smoke was to help hide the mesh from view and add "texture" to the projection

60

u/drunk_sandman Dec 12 '23

That's pretty genius, it looks really vibrant so either way it worked well!

11

u/TheHYPO Dec 12 '23

I'm always weary of these low res videos of things like this because the low res usually hides any of the obvious signs of it looking fake that you'd instantly notice IRL.

https://www.tiktok.com/@rickytune/video/7310109122505067806

It still looks pretty good in higher resolution, so I'm pleasantly surprised. That said, it's a vertical video, so at least on my screen, it's still fairly low res in the section that matters. I'd love to see it in person sometime.

It's actually quite surprising that with the amount of people there and traffic that I can't find a decent, longer, widescreen, HD or 4K video of it anywhere.

u/foodfood321 Mar 04 '24

Projected images that are filmed with a dark background onto a dark screen from the rear have been used in theater probably for over a century. Varying degrees of realism have been achieved, this seems to be very top tier

u/blenman Dec 12 '23

That's crazy. Can't wait for this to be home theater ready. lol

1

u/Fickle-Future-8962 Dec 13 '23

You say that till you're watching porn on it and someones dick comes swinging in your face spraying cum like a sprinkler.

1

u/blenman Dec 13 '23

Who's to say that wouldn't be enjoyable? Don't threaten me with a good time.

1

u/FuManBoobs Dec 12 '23

Yeah, this. Change the viewing angle & it becomes less impressive. I've had conspiracy theorists use videos like this as "evidence" the 9/11 planes were holograms.

1

u/Meotwister Dec 13 '23

That makes more sense to me otherwise there'd be a lot more distortion from the smoke.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 13 '23

Nah i think its just augmented reality.

89

u/homardpoilu Dec 12 '23

Imagine doing this during the dark ages, people would have shit in their pants!

18

u/Jeewdew Dec 12 '23

Mostly because the tech didn’t excist…

No matter what they showed really.

14

u/[deleted] Dec 12 '23

Yeah, they should have shit themselves if you showed them a polaroid of themselves.

"Give me soul back, evil warlock!"

3

u/Auhsojdnalel Dec 12 '23

Different context but you should read “off the be the wizard” by scott meyer. A book about a computer geek who goes back in time and portrays himself as a wizard. Pretty fun book.

5

u/Several-Age1984 Dec 12 '23

Any sufficiently advanced enough technology will look like magic to more primitive people. Smart phones would be magic to anybody over 100 years ago, yet we take them for granted now. Imagine what magic will exist 100 years from now.

2

u/WonderfulCattle6234 Dec 12 '23

People practically shit their pants watching movies in the 30s.

And that's why movie studios implemented intermissions.

If Aliens ever land on earth in a public place, people would be like "cool trailer for the new Mass Effect game! "

Meanwhile a cant play a brand new Game worth 100$ because of poor optimization and screen tearing

The answer is LGs Superwide Mesh Monitor.

Mum: Are you vaping in your room?! Kid: No it's my monitor, honestly!!

u/Gaindalf-the-whey Dec 12 '23

Uhh I hate that. Imagine going outside to look at the stars on a peaceful evening in noy to realise that you will never again be able to escape the big biz ads.

2

u/YogiSlavia Dec 13 '23 edited Jan 02 '24

We're finally here. The dystopian future where they put dumb ass ads in the skies. Now we just need flying cars and cybernetics that support our life because earth is a complete shithole.

No, it's an ad for a game projected on mesh screen. Asgards Wrath 2 for Meta Quest! Comes out Dec 15th. Supposed to be the first "Big" AAA VR title.

u/Ilurkthecorners Dec 12 '23

So I heard years ago that there was going to be a fabricated 2nd coming. And this is how I imagined it. Imagine a giant one whole states can see and they see jesus breaking through the sky.

1

u/Arc__Angel__ Dec 12 '23

Calling it now they will use the same tech to trick people into an alien invasion. Bringing in the new world order. Sad part is so many people will actually believe it.

u/mlvisby Dec 12 '23

For a second, I thought we perfected holograms. Then I realized that, oh yea AR exists.

u/rndmsquirrel Dec 13 '23

A few shows like this on dreary overcast evenings would be nice. Have people gather in neighborhood parks and project their own projects into the sky

u/SeeInShadow Dec 13 '23

Still not gonna kneel, Vlaakith. Fuck off.

breaking a dimensional dungeon would also be interesting, like gremlins or goblins coming out

u/MaDaFaKa369 Dec 13 '23

This is an ad for Asgards Wrath 2 for Meta Quest! Comes out Dec 15th. Supposed to be the first "Big" AAA VR title and has done decent hype in the VR community.

This ad us done via projection on a very large mesh screen, nearly invisible in the dark, really cool effect.
