Bonjour. Come on in. Welcome to my studio. Have a look around. I'm Jonathan Thunder, animator and artist. Welcome to my studio here in Duluth, Minnesota where I animate and create artwork. I've been blessed to have the opportunity to create animations that teach the Ojibwe language. So I was born in Red Lake on the Red Lake Chippewa Indian Reservation. When I was about two, we moved to the Twin Cities where I was raised. I knew that I wanted to be an artist when I was in the third grade. I was given an assignment to draw a happy face and a sad face. I didn't know how to do it. I couldn't figure out how to draw this happy and sad face. So I went home and I was sitting at the kitchen table, obviously flustered. Trying to do my homework and my mom said, what are you working on, son? So she comes over and I told her what the assignment was and she said, well, try it like this.  And then a circle with a little happy face in it. And like to my third grade brain, that was brilliant. Like it just blew my mind completely. I remember staring at it in such amazement that I vividly remember it being a child and thinking I want to be as great an artist as my mom is. When I start an animation project, I will be approached with an idea. And that idea often is turned into a script. So I'll get it in script form and usually go by the rule that one page equals about 60 seconds of screen time. Once we get down a game plan on how to execute it visually, I'll sit down and do a sketch similar to this sketch that I did with just a big pencil like that. This sketch I scanned into my workstation here with my scanner and then I pulled it up into Photoshop, which is generally where I do a lot of my coloring and layering and that will usually be in layers. So like the head will be a layer and then I'll go through and kind of make the body, you know, the arms are often on multiple layers so that way I can, you know, if anything needs to be animated. And then once I have that, then I'll go ahead and create an environment. So I'll put it on a bench, you know, kind of give it some shading. Also, you know, like to create nice environments for them so you can sort of see where they are in the setting to kind of give you a visual lead up to what, you know, the story is going to be about. From there, what I will do is open up a program called Adobe After Effects and After Effects is pretty much Photoshop on wheels and that's where I'll do a lot of my animation key framework, stuff like that and start to bring these characters to life. I'll get some voiceover work and then those show up here as these little individual voiceover files. This is a scene where this elder is going to be asking this young lady, look over there, what is, you know, like that bird doing or look over there, what are those puppies doing? So I thought it would be cute to have the elder sort of point with her lips before she starts to speak. Back home, I remember, you know, my grandma used to always point with her lips. It was kind of something that I really remember about her. I usually have about three or four different poses for the mouth. So I'll start to do the kind of the lip sync they call it. And then here you can roughly see that, you know, the lips are sort of moving and then what I'll do is go in and then just try to time it up to the voice and then I'll just give it a little test. Once I got an animation kind of in progress and it's looking good. I'll usually render it out so I can sort of see what my animation is looking like so far. This is it kind of in real time. Once that's put together, I compile all of the animations in my editing program. You can see that there's layers and layers of like audio sound design, which is like little ambient noises.  I also like to put in sort of ambience, which is always nice. These guys will be in a park, so I have this nice clip of, you know, like birds in a park or something like that. So then I line them up and then once I get things kind of all put together, what I'll do is I'll go in and from the script, I'll kind of put a placeholder subtitle here where the script is going to line up with what's happening on the screen. And then that's how I know where to put my VO and that way I can go through and check things shot for shot to make sure that we're like going down our shot list and taking care of everything that we need so that not only is the story being told for this particular animation being a lesson, you know, the lesson is being delivered in a format that makes sense. And once I get that all in place, what you have is... Animation magic. This drawing is based on a picture of my grandma that I have here. It was a gal who is from Red Lake, and she worked at Head Start most of her life as a gal who would serve the kiddos lunch every day.  So I got an animation for a couple reasons. So I was that guy who was in his 20s still watching cartoons. And at the time I was at painting school in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and I was studying to be a painter. I remember seeing this Pixar film called Monsters, Inc. And it was so brilliant to me. I just said, you know what, when I get done with painting school, I want to go to school for that.  And, you know, the reaction that I get when I show some of this stuff is just like, just seeing the look on people's faces is almost worth all the work. Any art form, including animation, is going to be a lot of hitting the books, a lot of doing research, find out like the heritage of animation. You know, like Ray Harryhausen was one of the first animators, Clash of the Titans. He made the Kraken come to life and did a lot of the Sinbad movies, you know, with like animated skeletons. Like no stuff like that, get to love it and just study hard and work hard, really hone your craft.  One day I got asked to illustrate this book called Not a Modding, which, you know, was written by multiple Ojibwe language speakers.  Like I guess I never really thought that I would be asked to be on a project like that. But I took it and, you know, I worked closely with the team that was responsible for writing the content. And it was a really rewarding experience, you know. I felt super blessed that somebody like me, you know, an artist like myself could find him himself on a project where I was going to be delivering artwork that would do some good. You know, like it would really like serve a purpose much bigger than myself. And it also kind of fueled my soul, you know, in a way that I hadn't expected.


Hello welcome to Film My Run, I'm Stephen Cousins. Today I'm going to be calibrating my treadmill. Now many of you may know that I do a lot of running on a program called Zwift. Zwift is an online game, it used to be for cycling but it's now for cycling and running.  I really enjoy it, I know a lot of people do, but a lot of people have problems with the pace that they're supposed to be running at and calibrating their foot pod and making sure that the treadmill is at the right pace and knowing whether it's right or wrong. Often we do find that treadmills are not entirely accurate and so one way of testing that is with some tape and a tape measure. So here we are inside in my shed in the back garden. You'll see I've got my Zwift set up here and so the treadmill there, I've also got the bike here with the kicker trainer which I don't use as often as I should do. I used to use it an awful lot but now that running is happening on Zwift I do a lot more running on Zwift than I do cycling. So I've got my big TV screen there to watch Zwift, I've got my microphone and my cameras for streaming and here is my treadmill. It's just a basic standard treadmill. Didn't cost me very much money, it's not fancy in any way shape or form which probably means it's more likely to not be very accurate as well. So we're going to try and test that now. So as you can see here I've cut out various bits of tape and stuck them on the treadmill and I've measured the distance between the bits of tape and it turns out that the length of my treadmill belt is 258 centimetres, so two metres 58 centimetres long. So that's the length of my belt. You also notice that I've placed a piece of tape on the edge of the treadmill. So now what I'm going to do is I'm going to run on the treadmill and each time this piece of tape here passes this piece of tape I'm going to count and it counts up to 100 and then we're going to do a little bit of maths. Okay so this is quite difficult doing it by myself so I'm going to have to look down onto the treadmill belt and count the number of times the belt goes round whilst also timing it on my watch and then we do a calculation of 100 multiplied by the belt length divided by the time. Okay so we know that the treadmill belt length is 258 centimetres or 2.58 metres and we know that the time it took me to run 100 revolutions of the belt was 1 minute 45 seconds or 105 seconds so let's do a little calculation. Alexa what is 2.58 multiplied by 100? I haven't finished the question yet. Alexa what is 2.58 multiplied by 100 divided by 105? Okay so the answer let's round it up is 2.46 metres per second. Okay so it's 2.46 metres per second. Alexa what is 2.46 metres per second in kilometres per hour? 8.856 kilometres per hour so we just about 8.9 kilometres per hour interestingly my treadmill was set at 9 kilometres per hour so there may be a margin of error there in my calculations in my measuring of the treadmill belt length or my counting of the revolutions so we could possibly round it up and say that the treadmill is running at 9 kilometres an hour when it says it is and all we could say it's just running slightly under but I've always thought my treadmill is way off so that's a very interesting result that actually the treadmill is not as way off as I think it is so back in the shed I'm going to run the test again I'm going to run for 1 minute at 12 kilometres an hour and count how many revolutions I do so it's slightly different way of doing the test but just to kind of confirm the result that we just got a minute ago so 12 kilometres an hour on the treadmill running for one minute counting okay so let's do that I can't hold the camera while I'm doing this so I'll have to show you in a minute okay so here's the button here's the 12 button here so we press 12 and up we go so that's the set the treadmill now says 12 so that's where I'm going to stop the camera okay there I'll just stop the watch and we counted 76 revolutions so in one minute at 12 kilometres an hour I counted 76 revolutions so let's go back in and ask Alexa the maths questions Alexa what is 2.58 multiplied by 76 divided by 60? Alexa what is 3.268 meters per second in kilometres per hour so you could round that up to 11.8 kilometres an hour so my treadmill is running slightly fast isn't it I am running slower in real life than my treadmill says I'm running so if I set it to 12 kilometres an hour I'm actually running 11.8 kilometres an hour that's what it seems to suggest


In this video, we demonstrate how to clean your area and your tools after working with Art Resin. To clean and reuse your mixing tools, wipe them down with a paper towel promptly after use, spritz with rubbing or denatured alcohol, and wipe down again for a final clean. If necessary, wash skin promptly with soap and water. If you've taped off the underside of your piece, remove tape carefully, no later than 24 hours post-pore. And voila! Behold your wonderful creation!


Hi, it's Bridget. Hi, welcome to Above Life channel. The purpose here as always is to inspire your spirit and to fill you with hope. Today, we're gonna have a conversation, a channeling session with Chadwick Boseman from the afterlife. All right, so I've decided that when I am inspired to connect with someone from the afterlife, I'm going to ask some questions that I think would be interesting to know instead of wasting our time with stuff that you can just Google up and find the answers to, let's focus on like the real stuff. So with Chadwick Boseman, I would like to do just that. And I think it's very appropriate with him in particular based on the way I feel him energetically. So let's bring his energy in forward. Oh, whoa, okay. When I connected with him a few minutes ago, he was really kind of mellow and he just literally came right forward as like a reddish kind of long, almost tunic-like shirt on, but there's no collar and he's got this black kind of jacket, a little prince-like kind of, but it's very simple, very simple. It's not textured or anything. And just like standing in just very stature, like a stature and like statues kind of coming toward me. Like literally feels like he's moving like a statue. Literally he's like showing me, I feel like he's showing me like a wax figure. Is he made into a wax figure? Do you guys know that? Put it below like Madame Tussauds or whatever. I think that's the only wax museum place, right? Is he gonna be made into like a wax figure? Cause it literally looks like there's this figure of him, like a statue of him. It might not be a wax figure, it might be a statue. I see it's like, like he's just like moving it toward me like on this almost like a dolly, like with wheels just kind of moving and it's just very stiff. I'm like, okay, it's a little creeping me out here. Then kind of pops up behind it. It's like, I'm here. I'm like, okay, he's funny. He's a little bit of a prankster. I don't know much about him from his human life experience. I know he's an actor. I know that he was in the Disney movie. Of course you guys know if you watch above life channel or if you watch me on fairy grasshopper, my YouTube channel, that's more like casual vlogging and intuitive stuff. You know that I love Disney. I am such a fan of that creative energy especially the Disney parks. So I have not seen the movie Black Panther. That's probably gonna surprise and shock everyone, right? But I'm kind of too cheap to get Disney Plus yet. So I haven't streamed it, but I know I should, I know I should. I know I hear everybody going, oh my gosh, you need to watch it. I know probably after this channeling I'll do that. But his work, his body of work was far beyond just that one movie I know. So I'm gonna share with you how I feel his energy and why I'm inspired to interview him as his energy comes forward. He kind of like wraps his energy around us in front of us like this.  He kind of brings us in on the forward facing, like in front, like he's kind of pulling us in in front. And he wants our attention. He wants our focus. So let's honor that.  So you are feeling the energy and I invite you to do that. Feel Chadwick Boseman as he pulls you in or draws you in. He's funny. He's got a sense of humor.  That's the vibe I get from him. And I also feel him as someone who I would describe him as kind of like a poet, like he's poetic and also inspired like combination between a poet and a motivational speaker. You know who he reminds me of, you guys? He reminds me of an energy that would be like an open mic night and he'd be like this rhythmic poetry, you know, like performance poetry, like that. Like that kind of vibe. That's how I feel him. He's great. And they showing me the south, like he's showing me Georgia. Now he literally, I kind of shows me the south like this and they say like a peach, which is my symbol for Georgia. Yeah, I know. Easy, you guys. It's gotta be simple, right? Georgia. And then he kind of pulls me over to Alabama. Wait, he pulls me over. Then he pushed me down in Louisiana like Mardi Gras and then I kind of go up to Alabama. So Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama. I'm not sure how this is significant for Chadwick's life, but Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama and like Louisiana like Mardi Gras because right now when I'm recording this in 2021, it's actually Mardi Gras or getting close to Mardi Gras time, I believe because it's the end of February, right? Isn't that Mardi Gras? See, I don't know that much about that stuff because I'm just not, I'm not well versed in partying and or a world traveler like that. So how does he fit with Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama? I'm not sure. It feels like home. There's gotta be a connection there. There's gotta be home or there's gotta be like a big break happening there or somebody that he cares about deeply has family there and that he shows me heart, love, I'm in love. He says, at the time of his passing, it feels like he was married. I don't know if that's public knowledge or not. It feels like he was married and deeply devoted, like really appreciative. He also mentioned somebody by like, so I hear a name, but I feel like, so he talks about this love of his life kind of person that he's married to. And then I feel, then I hear a name, but I feel this like adoration love of this person. But I don't think it, I don't know if it's the same person. I don't think so. It might be a mentory person. Tracy is the name. He's referring to somebody named Tracy that he looks up to that he really, there's this really, I admire and care deeply about like, that's like family, like the kind of family you choose. Tracy, whoever Tracy is, put it in the comments below you guys, right? Right, so that's that. And then I want it, so I want to talk to you, Chadwick, I'd love to speak to you about inspiration as we are here in this very tumultuous time, very unique time in our history. We could use some inspiration. What kinds of words of wisdom would you give us? Or maybe you can also speak into what inspires you. He says, that's a lot of different things for a lot of different people. He says, that's really a personal, he has a little bit, almost an accent. His dialect is a little bit different. I'm gonna try not to mimic that and trying to be very conscious of that. I don't wanna be, show me a grandmother. I gotta say something about it. It's personal, inspiration is a personal thing. So that's a personal thing. It's personal, it's personal. What are you choosing? What are you choosing to look at? He's like, what are you choosing to look at? What are you choosing to see? It's a personal thing, it's a personal thing. He says, sometimes it can be painful. He says, sometimes people can get inspired through collective pain, grief. That's relevant to the times you're living in. I don't claim to know all the answers even as an individual that you might think that I am from an afterlife perspective, it's much different than what you would envision this to be. I can say the human spirit is something that you have come to experience. That's one of the key points of being human. And I recognize it's a struggle and a great deal of challenge that can be insurmountable at times, not everyone needs to be on a big stage to get global recognition for their work, to be perceived in value by others is both a blessing that leads to opportunities. And it can be something that can take you off your center and to put you into a place of great darkness, a place where you question if the appreciation, the rewards, the recognition is accurate, if it is really for you as a person or for what others perceive you to be. You see, it's really important, so important for those who are in position of power to take on this recognition, influence and to lead by example, beyond a simple statement of kindness, an act that shows or demonstrates their commitment, but more in the way in which they live and the projects they choose and the products they support in the areas of their life that they put their weight behind. It's an important thing to recognize the power that you have as a person that is in the public to be aware of how you can influence. And I'm not just talking about influencing big people or big companies or those with money or those who have powers in addition to your own, I'm talking about the person living day to day going to the grocery store and going to their nine to five job and waiting at the car place so they get their tire fixed. I'm talking about everybody, people, regular people. That's the most important part of what it means to be in a position, a place where you have some kind of influence or power. That's the important, that's the most showing me like reaching down into the communities and actually helping at a grassroots level is what you're saying. You really feel like an activist. Like you guys, I'm really feeling like really the community and he's really focusing on like families and families that are broken and families that are the common family. He's like, look at the common family structures and focus on the needs and the neighborhoods. And he's like moving into, oh, he's moving into, I knew you were gonna move into stuff that I'm like, I don't even know how to talk about this stuff. I'm moving into neighborhoods where things are, he's literally showing me.  Oh, good God. Okay, all right, all right. Let me get a cup of tea and then we'll talk about this. The racism that is rampant, that's the plague. It's like, that's, he says, that's the plague. That's the plague, the racism. That's the plague. That's the toxins in the water. Why do you think Michigan? Why do you think Flint doesn't have water?  Might be a difference made. Oh, he's really, I can feel it. Yeah, okay. What else do you have to share? Yeah, you can go there. He's like really making me like pushing back on me. And it's good, I should be uncomfortable. I'm a white woman of privilege, so I should be. I should be. I'm gonna hold space the damn all best I can for you. It's not just about the injustice. It's about the sheer lack of commitment. Who's showing up? Who's doing something? Who's doing something? Are you doing something? What are you like doing? Who's showing up? Who's showing up? He's saying, he's getting really, he's like, whoa, it's like, I feel this energy of like, it's a combination of like what I would perceive as like a Malcolm X and a, because he's so eloquent, like articulate, really charismatic. And then a Martin Luther King was really conscious about how he's speaking. That's like the combination that Chadwick Boseman is bringing forward.  Don't give me so much credit. It's like people have to get back to their communities. They have to focus on the toxin in the communities. The families are broken. It's not just the money. The opportunities aren't there.  And what do you expect? What do you expect? He's like, it's got to change. It's got to be changed. It's got to continue to be difficult so that change is made. And he's like, show me again and again, don't give up. He's like, don't give up. Don't give up. You have to fight. These are basic needs. These are basic needs. There should not be excuses that are made. You need to elect people that can represent your interest, that have influence for you to have power and a voice and to say, and that's how it changes. That's how it changes. And the people, those who have the money or the social influencers, all of the different types of each of them, all the different types of power. The writers and the videographers and the documentarians and the scientists and the people actually in elected positions and the musicians and the artists and the famous people and the social media influencers have got to continue to highlight he's like showing me like the plague in the neighborhoods. He's like literally showing me like toxic, it looks like toxic sludge going through the streets, like hazardous waste, like nuclear waste going through the streets. That racism is that and it's leading to a whole bunch of other things. So he's like showing me sickness and lack of medical care and higher crime rates and financial insecurity, the inability to get loans, no credit, complete pay disparities and unfair treatment by landlords and housing agencies. And just all sorts of he's showing me all these things. He's like, all of these things are because of this.  That's what he's showing me. He's passionate. He's passionate. He's like, I'm not angry. I'm like, whoa, it's hard to say.  I mean, really? And so I feel this. I feel this like, you know, but it's not anger, you guys, is what I'm trying to tell you. He's not angry at me. Like, I don't have to back down from this and be ashamed or anything. I just have to say, okay, what do I do? What can I do? He's like, it starts inside you. You got to start seeing things for how they really are. You got to start seeing things and you got to start talking about it and asking some questions.  You need to be more worried about, concerned about listening, actually listening because you got values and beliefs and a whole bunch of structures that you don't even realize you have that are going to be all shaken up based upon what you hear and you're not going to want to believe. It's not about, we're not asking you if you think it's true or not. We're just asking you to listen. You got to show up and listen.  This is powerful. Yes, it is. I hear you. He says, you guys, he's so, God, he's such a good speaker. He says, it's not about, it's not just about, let me see if I can get it exactly. I don't know if I can get it exactly. It's not just about who you are. It's about what you do with what you have been given. I'm talking about your skills and your gifts and all the talents and all of the things, the everything. It's basically saying like how you show up, you know? Whoa, okay. All right, so social commentary. Wow, that's a big one, you guys. Oh my goodness, okay. I wanted to talk to you about some warm and fuzzy stuff like encouragement for life purpose, but I guess you kind of handled that in current events. And I guess you kind of just handled that, didn't you? Chadwick, can you give us some perspective about the afterlife itself? As in being a spirit, you crossed over into the afterlife. Can you talk to us at all about the transition and then now your perspective as an afterlife spirit? Okay, so he's saying I was in hospice care. I was in hospice care, he's saying. So my death was well-planned for, he's saying well-planned, well-planned. It's a strange thing to say, but it's true. He's saying I was in hospice care. My death was well-planned. And he says, I remember most of it. There are some times when I was asleep and I wasn't quite conscious. No, he's saying like cognizant. Like his mind wasn't quite working to be able to take in from a human lens what was happening. But he says, I could feel, he says I could feel my body dying. I knew that my body was turning off. He's explaining it like I'm cooling down. Like from the feet up, he said, you could tell because he said, I could tell it was, that it was getting near time to go. When I could feel like he said, I couldn't like really feel my legs anymore. It was kind of like everything was getting cold, cold, frozen and then you just didn't feel it anymore. Like that. Like that. He said, there's no tingling or anything either. He said, it's not like when your arm's asleep and all of a sudden you move in and you start tingling. It's not like that. There's no feeling. Just seemed, first the temperature kind of seemed really cold and then it just kind of came up the body, he says. It wasn't as painful as you might believe. It was more painful trying to live out the last few months, I'd say. He said, the last three months were the most difficult. And I think that was more emotionally to see the weight and the burden that was part of our reality. And he's showing me like, I think it's his wife. I don't know if they got married like right before he died or something because it's like newlyweds almost like, that's the vibe I get. I mean, maybe he wanted to marry or he didn't. Maybe that's what he's saying. I don't think that's right though. I think he got married before he died. I don't know if that, does that make sense to you guys? But I feel a sister. So I don't know if it's her sister that's helping her. And I also see like a mom or an aunt. And that's on his side. And, okay, so there's two names that are coming. There's like an Esther or a Eugena. And then there's, it's an E-U-E-A-S-E-S-T. Esther or Eugena, Esther or Eugena. And then there is a, can you say it again? Like a Loretta or Lorene? Not Lorene, I don't think. It looks like a Loretta. Loretta, Loretta, I think so. I think that's what it is. I don't know if those are people that are in the afterlife that greeted him, but they're family. Like he's showing me Ark of Family. And it feels like him, his mom's side is what it feels like. And then his wife and then her sister or sister. So it could be sister-in-law or it could be his sister is helping his wife.  Just so you know, like when I see a body and I see that and that's my association with cancer.  I think I know that. I think if that's true, right? You guys, like I heard that, I think he had cancer. So that's what I was thinking. And it's cancer in the lower body. So it's an organ and it's lower is what I see. And kind of surprising. He's like, it was surprising. It was a surprise, a surprise. But he's showing me heart something. Something's affecting his heart. So I don't know if it's his physical heart. No, yeah, physical heart. Like something with the heart. I don't know if medicine was affecting the heart or some kind of treatment was affecting the heart, but there was a heart thing. And then I see, okay. So no, no, here, here, here, here, here, wait, wait, wait. I'm feeling like the heart thing might be connected to a male that's crossed over on the other side. So like, could be a brother, a dad, an uncle, a good friend, a heart thing. So heart disease, a heart attack, heart something, okay? Somebody that has crossed over on the other side and they may have died since he died or before I'm not sure of the timing. I can't quite tell the timing, but I see that too. So if you know anything about that, put that below. Can you show me a young boy, a young boy, like a godchild, a godson or a nephew? I see that, he's acknowledging that. And for some reason he says, I don't know why I see this guy. I don't know if he, I don't, he doesn't feel, okay. So Chadwick Boseman does not feel to me like a comedian, but he's showing me like other comedians, somebody that looks like an Eddie Murphy, but I don't know if it's exactly Eddie Murphy. It might be somebody else, but it kind of has that, he looks like him or was well-known like he was. See, like focusing on my minds, I am trying to kind of just stare at my computer keyboard here so that I can kind of zone out a little bit. Usually I look up to do that, but the lights are really bright in here. The sun has come in through the windows and the tops. I can't tell who it is. It's not, it almost looks like a young Eddie Murphy or something is what it kind of looks like. Who's that? Is that like a friend of his or something or somebody that's like him? I'm not quite right on this. I'm not quite making the right connection. I'm not sure who this is. Somebody looks up to African-American, somebody looks up to, hmm, person of color. Let me say that correctly. So make sure I'm politically correct. I don't even know what politically corrected means anymore, but I'll do my best willing to learn. Somebody's singing or playing an instrument like jazz or something. I see that. Cause he's trying to mean the afterlife now. Okay, we're already there. We're just slipped right away. It's like, and he's trying to describe to me almost like, one of the times when I was unconscious that I just didn't wake up, like that's what happened. And then the body just slowly died and then it was done. He said, I just waited. I had to like, he's showing me like, I had to stand right next to the bed, like stand right here in the room, wait for the body to totally die so that I could like unplug myself and walk out kind of a thing is what happens. He's like showing me like a cord, which I've seen before, but it's like literally showing me I got to unplug myself and walk out of the room. And he's saying like solar plexus, like his spirit into the body unplug himself and leave, you know, that kind of. So he transitioned over, yeah.  He said, you go and check everything out, you know, see what it's like in the afterlife. Cause it's awesome.  So you just drawn into this.  And cause you make those agreements with those other souls that are in bodies to make sure that you help them through that. And so that's natural. So how long did you stick around? He says nine, 10 days, nine to 10 days. Showing me May for some reason, I'm not sure what May is, May nine, May nine. I'm not sure if that's a birthday anniversary, what May nine, May nine. That might have been another state thing. I don't remember when you died. I'm sorry, my friend. I know it was like in the last couple of years, but I don't know if it was during the COVID. Ooh, I just said it during the health crisis. YouTube doesn't like it when you say that. It's too scary, apparently. Reality is too scary. Oh, but there can be other things on YouTube. Just fine, but you can't say that. A medical term. Okay, so interesting afterlife connection. Okay, so then you went over to afterlife. People always ask like, who did you meet? Who met you? And he's like, I just told you all about my family. I'm like, yeah, okay. So that was the priority or the vibe, yes. As far as famous people go, he shows me musicians. Like the thing he was most interested in, like as a person, he wanted to meet like the famous musicians and stuff. Like it seems like that, like he wanted to hear the music and jam out, you know? Like a Louis Armstrong and just like, I really feel the jazz, you guys. I wonder if that's Louisiana connection. Jazz, just really like kind of music and just an appreciation. You just want to go sit and just listen to good music and just relax and just be, just feel all sorts of good, you know? Yeah, I feel like he may have died during the health epidemic because he's giving me the impression that my death was not a surprise, but it was like not the big news of the day kind of a thing. Like he's giving me the impression that it wasn't a huge news story because there was other things going on. So I'm feeling like it was last year in 2020. So it feels in alignment, let's say that.  And I always say to you, it's not about everything's right, accurate all the time. It's not about that. That's like perfection. That's like, it doesn't exist. That's not real, right? So I share with you what I pick up and sometimes I miss, but you always miss 100% of the shots you don't take, right? So cheers, at least I'm doing this particular channeling session because I mean, it's kind of sad. Like this man, Mr. Boseman, cheers to you. You were a great talent from what I can see and sorely missed. It's like, what other things could you create, produce, do, write? Cause I see you like writing. I see just so much from you that you could do a great many things and that you've inspired a great many people. I see young people, young people in the arts and young people with a chance or an opportunity. Focus on what you can, not what you can't. Focus on what you are and let that lead you to the next place for you, the next right move for you. Don't focus on what you can or what you don't have. Thank you so much, Mr. Chadwick Boseman for our conversation here on Above Life channel. So before you leave, make sure you subscribe to the channel so you never miss a new channeling video or an episode of our Sunday Morning Coffee, which is the podcast that happens on Sundays, of course.

And this is your life after all, so you have to live it, just live it. Thanks for watching.


Trees are really important to us humans. They produce that delicious oxygen that we love so much. They also clean the air, removing both pesky pollutants and elements like carbon dioxide. You know, those things that have been linked with sad polar bears and warming climates? And if that's not enough of a service to society, trees happily slurp up and filter rainwater as it rungs along the ground, protecting us from floods. And they even block our sensitive human exteriors from those outdoor elements like wind and sun. The importance of trees to us humans inspires scientists to measure and inventory them across the globe to identify where trees are and where they're not, where they've been damaged, cut down, or burned, and where they're growing strong. However, trees cover almost a third of the Earth's surface. That's 29.5% or 9.5 billion acres. That equals 750 million football fields of trees. So how does a scientist measure 750 million football fields worth of trees across the globe? Well, one way to measure trees around the world is to get a whole lot of graduate students together and maybe a few other volunteers in one organized tree measuring effort. But maybe that's not such an efficient approach. A more efficient way to measure trees and other objects, like buildings on the ground, is to use remote sensing technology. Remote meaning to observe and measure something from afar as opposed to with our hands. One type of remote sensing data used to measure tree height over the entire country is called LiDAR, the topic of this video. LiDAR stands for light detection and ranging. A LiDAR system uses light energy emitted from a laser to scan the Earth's surface and record the heights of objects like trees and buildings on the ground. The LiDAR also works together with a global positioning system, or GPS receiver, to identify the location of those things on the ground. The use of a laser to actively produce light energy makes LiDAR an active remote sensing system. While LiDAR technology is exciting, it certainly isn't new. In fact, the earliest laser remote sensing systems date back to the 1960s. During the 1970s, they were used to measure ground elevation and produce the earliest high-resolution elevation maps. But LiDAR still wasn't being used to measure trees. The most common early use of LiDAR data was to produce beautiful high-resolution elevation maps that clearly identified the dips and peaks of hills and mountains with a level of detail that hadn't been seen before in science. And talk about useful, they even documented where stream channels and roads were. The detail and accuracy that LiDAR data provided with these high-resolution elevation data sets made people excited to work with LiDAR-derived elevation maps. How could you not be? Now, in LiDAR's early stages, the vegetation information contained in the data was considered noise. And people worked hard to remove as much of the noise as possible in order to create the most refined topographic maps. But alas, it was realized over time that within that noise was valuable information about vegetation. And soon it was discovered that LiDAR could be used to measure things like tree height and vegetation density and cover. And so the value of LiDAR data to better measure topography, vegetation, and even buildings was realized and the use of LiDAR data in science took off. To make this a modern-day story, we can now use information about vegetation found in LiDAR data to study large-scale ecological issues. For example, we can use LiDAR data to estimate the impact of fire on a forest, identifying how many trees still exist compared to how many burned away. Or we can use LiDAR data to estimate where certain wildlife species might prefer to live and reproduce. We can even use LiDAR-derived tree heights to estimate ecological metrics like vegetation density or biomass over large areas. Information that can help us better understand carbon cycles and in turn relate to changes in our climate. But wait, there's more! We can also collect LiDAR data over the same areas using the same settings over and over again through time. Maps of vegetation created over time allow us to identify and quantify changes that have occurred. If that's not cool enough, LiDAR data allows us to create powerful visual animations that show trends in vegetation as it changes through time. Talk about a powerful ecological tool. So this ability to understand ecosystems over such large areas and through time makes LiDAR data extremely useful to ecologists. And this is why the National Ecological Observatory Network, otherwise known as NEON, is collecting LiDAR data that will be freely available over all of its core sites every year for 30 years. Now we can't wrap this video up without taking a look at some LiDAR data collected using the NEON Airborne Observation Platform. Here are some data collected over Harvard Forest in Massachusetts. Notice how you can pick out and potentially measure individual trees in this video. Now imagine measuring all of those trees by hand.


All right, maintenance of behavior. Let's not forget that we, as behavior managers, our job is to not be there anymore. If we have to come back, if we have to continue to teach people what to do, we haven't done our job correctly. So use natural contingencies whenever possible. In other words, we wanna try and trap the behavior.  But ultimately, you want that behavior to come into contact with the natural reinforcers. So you want to take your little training that you're doing and make that behavior that you're trying to get the person to do to be something that would be reinforced automatically in the real world, right? So natural reinforcers are going to then maintain that program response. So again, if you're trying to teach somebody how to use money, you could use my example earlier of speaking Dari with the shopkeepers. My friend that was teaching me how to use my numbers was actually a student of mine. And he's like, well, you need to learn this in order to function here. So we were in my, he'd come over to my hotel room and he'd do training sessions with me.  So, and he would be with me in case I got stuck, but I would have to ask the price. I would have to negotiate the monetary amount. And that just made it natural, right? I was able to successfully buy something without someone's help. And I didn't have to have a translator or anything like that. So that's an example of trapping. And he'd never heard of that before. And he did a great job of trapping my response and causing me to be very functional with regard to buying stuff. So much so that I spent a lot of money while I was there buying things like carpets and food. Of course, so. Change the people in that natural environment. You need the people in that environment to actually be the reinforcers, right? You need not just to be the behavioral modifier, right?  Ultimately, you want other students to reinforce the student. You don't want the behavior manager to have to be there the whole time. Let me get rid of this, right? The idea is that then, for whatever behavior that they're doing, they will be reinforced by the person that's in their natural environment. That's called the natural trap. That's exactly what you wanna do, okay? We can also use intermittent schedules for reinforcement. So for example, we start out with constant reinforcement, right, the continuous reinforcement, then we start to thin it out. So we start with you're gonna get reinforcers for the behavior you did today, and then you're gonna do it, you have to wait another day, and then eventually you have to wait five days, and then a month, and three months in a year, and so on and so forth, right? May not ever get to the year thing, but that's just an example of showing you what I mean by using intermittent schedules in this case, okay? And sometimes you do have to pop back in and continue to kind of redo the scenario a little bit to put them back in touch with maybe some contrived reinforcers if the natural ones aren't taken over.


This session is introducing the overall of the open source software and the security.  Looking back the overall situation of OSS security, and the briefly introduction of OpenSSF. Probably you know that well, but the OpenSSF is the main body for the activities related to OSS and OSS software chain security. So let me briefly introduce the OpenSSF. And I'm introducing some general activities related to OSS security in Japan. And then on Cybertros Japan, I'm from Cybertros. Cybertros Japan activities, I'm introducing that. So the discussion is overall and slightly focusing on the Cybertros Japan activity and conclusion. Right? Okay. I'm Mui Keda from Cybertros Japan. All right, so let's go. First is the overall situation of OSS security. Nowadays, many guys are talking about security and OSS security is very important. But this chapter is not limited to the OSS. This is introducing and looking back the overall situation of cyber security. Well, on Japanese government agency, I think IPA Information Technology Promotion Agency is staying every year on the top 10 threats for cyber security. And this table is showing to 2021 and 2022 on the right hand. The important point is first thing is the rank one ransomware. The boss year, the ransomware is ranked as top number one. So the threat of ransomware is continuing. And second thing is supply chain attacks. The green box, well, in 2022, supply chain attacks is ranked number three, third rank. This is ranked up. So the threat of supply chain attacks is, I mean, raising. The point three is vulnerability attacks appeared. Number seven in 2022, I mean, the vulnerability attacks means like zero day attacks or something. Well, the zero day attack is newly ranked. So in 2022, the three points are new or continuing. So these are very important points. Well, ransomware, supply chain attack and vulnerability attacks. This is the overall situation. And I think the ransomware is ranked number one. So let's look back the ransomware incidents recently. Well, the companies we know well listed, for example, this or Coca-Cola or something. And the summary is, well, before two years ago, three years ago, the ransomware was attacking some business logic. But recently, it attacks also manufacture. That includes some factory or something, that changing point. And the whole attack is counting on the lack of it over 50% of the incidents. And this is a characteristic phenomena. Well, the information leaking in simultaneously happens. That means the ransomware is of course a lot of information and require the ransom. But if the ransom is not paid, the lack of it, the county is sending a blackmail to leak the information. And actually the information leaking happens. Well, and stay back to the open source software. Well, right table, this is very detailed. I cannot read it to detail. But anyway, please feel that the table is showing that where the open source software is existing. In the area, for example, very detailed, but here is desktop or web server database, AI, big data or something. So what I want you to feel here is OSS is now existing everywhere as omnipresent. Some reports said that 98% of software product includes the open source software code. So that just omnipresent. And second thing is now OSS is utilized for critical infrastructure also. So for example, Tokyo stock exchange is using a Linux system. This is the very popular story, which is from Fujitsu Retaro. And bank or some financial industry, the account system is built by the Linux system. And of course, the many infrastructure we are using daily. For example, transportation, electricity, gas broadcasting or something are using the open source. That's the situation. So OSS is omnipresent now. So I'm saying that infrastructure is using the open source. So looking back the actual instant for infrastructure. Well, these are very big instant. Last year to 2021 colonial pipeline, which is a US pipeline company. I believe that is the largest pipeline company in the US of the largest. Yes. And unfortunately, the colonial pipeline was attacked by the ransomware and business outage happened. Well, there's some news and I was broadcast it. So probably you may remember that one week or one and a half week, the pipeline was stopped. And the citizens in the east coast, like New York or Washington DC panic because gas station doesn't work. And you said that colonial pipeline paid the ransom. But I don't know how, but subsequently the ransom 80% of 85% of ransom was recovered. And this year 2022 Costa Rica, this is government. Government was attacked by the ransomware and government operation stopped. Well, and the government declared the state of national emergency. That's a big incident. And you said that this is done by Conti and Conti probably the Costa Rican government did not pay the ransom. So Conti disclosed some confidential information. So information leaking happens actually. All right. So many incidents. Infrastructure was attacked. Open source is how many present. And of course, the OSS community is reacting. Before that, the more important incident, let me look back. SolarWinds, you remember that. In case the solar wind is a network monitoring system, very major system. And the US government is also using probably many Japanese customers. But unfortunately the solar winds was contaminated with malware, sunburst. And the sunburst set the back door. And the sunburst said that over 100 users are also the interusion. That was the end of 2020. Right. And local shell. The end of last year. Well, that's a big accident. Instant. So as you see, the local shell is a vulnerability on local J. And the local four J is widely used and even you have a user. I'm not sure if I'm using the local share or not. So probably many person is in trouble to talk with that. This big incident and community and the government had a reaction. So middle 2021 US president is stating the executive order improving the nation's cybersecurity. It has 10 sections and it requires the US government, each agency to adapt to enhance the cybersecurity and make a adoption plan or something. This year, January of this year, OSS security summit was held at the White House in Washington DC. And actually the OSS security summit was held twice. First is January and second is May. And very important statement was published. The from the first one project alpha omega. And from the second one OSS mobilization plan. I'm looking at OSS mobilization plan later. But let me let me explain briefly the project of omega alpha omega consists of alpha part and omega part. Alpha part is for critical open source software very important one. They select 50, 20 or 50 critical open source software and inject the investment and human resource to scan and fix the vulnerability of them. This is alpha and omega is for the ordinary many open sources other than the alpha objective. The objective of omega is estimated 10,000. So this is this cannot be done by by hand. So omega project is making the tool automatically to scan the vulnerability and of course fix is not automated. But that's to that's our omega project and mobilization plan is very general plan. So in my understanding the project alpha omega is merged into the mobilization plan. Some I mean chapter article mobilization plan is mentioning that alpha omega. So that's my understanding but it doesn't mean that alpha omega and it omega is alive. And in Japan of course Japan has a reaction. This is made of Japan economic security promotion bill. This is my translation so I'm not sure if this is correct translation or not. It's low but I mean created by the diet. This defined 14 critical infrastructure and government requires the company to operate critical infrastructure to be inspected by the government. I mean inspected for system. If the company is buying or some replacing the servers or something. In that case government requires to inspect that for cyber security. This is safe for now. And last but not least security summit Japan. This is a following meeting like OSS security summit at White House but it was held in Japan. I will talk about that later. So this is a timeline recent timeline of the related to the OSS security government OSS community and big instance. So this is looking back. And OSS security summit as I said it was held twice in the US and one time in Japan in August. Well that meeting is a I mean in the US one and two I did giant gathered and discuss but how to enhance the OSS security. Well I did giant includes Amazon, Apple, Meta, Google IBM so many companies you know well and including the government agency DoD that's a defense. DoC is a commercial or something. And as I said the two statement was stated for omega and second is mobilization plan. And in Japan the purpose is safe as a security summit in the US but of course attendees are different. In Japan's security summit Japanese big company IT companies are gathering like Hitachi Fujitsu and they see entity data Toyota. Toyota is not IT company but for the now the car manufacturer is using a lot of IT so Toyota is invited. And of course that attendee included the OSSF Japan members with Sabato Japan and Cyborgs and the businesses. Oh I forgot to say that that meeting was held by the Linux Foundation and OpenSSF. So that's the reason why we can join that right and discuss about how to enhance how to improve the OSS security. And many things is done by OpenSSF. OpenSSF is now the center of open source security I think. So here let me briefly introduce the OpenSSF. Probably you know well that but please be patient. OpenSSF is the project under the Linux Foundation. It's a cross industry community. The purpose is to improve and enhance OSS security. OSS and OSS supply chain security. The number is probably a little bit old but now it has over 100 members including Premier General and Associates. Associates like University or something. Over 100 but unfortunately there are only three members of Japan. Cyborgs Japan, we and Cyborgs and the RuneSus. And yesterday we had an open SSF day as a co-operation event about open source in Japan. And we had some talk and discuss about the open source security enhancement. Well the OpenSSF consists of the usual structures of government board and tech and under that there were seven or eight working groups. This figure is a little bit probably out of fashion. Because yesterday at the OpenSSF day the latest figure of the structure was shown. It includes that the SIGS store is a categorized as a top level project under the OpenSSF. Of course the SIGS store is independent project but the OpenSSF is focusing on the enhancement and development of the SIGS store. So the SIGS store is shown here. Oh SIGS is here. But now this point it was said that the associated project but now it is top level project. The OpenSSF is of course the open source community but what should I say, it's a box. So that's a member's trouble consideration. I'm not sure the right word but how to contribute that is not so easy to find out. I don't mean that the contribution is very hard. I don't mean that but the contribution point to find the contribution point is not so easy because it's just a box. So the OpenSSF is providing many ways to get involved. Of course it has many guitar repositories and mirroring these meetings. So meetings listed in the calendar. So you can check the meetings. And I recommend that you should find out the interesting meeting and to jumping and discussion. That's the first way to join the OpenSSF. And if you can find some interesting project you can get involved with the project. After that it is same as usual open source project. That's my recommendation, recommending way to get involved and collaborate with the OpenSSF. So please do that. That's a very general situation looking back at OpenSSF. And from here let me introduce the activities in Japan related to open source security and open source suppression security. After the Japan open source summit, open source security summit in Japan in August, we had small wrap up meeting among the OpenSSF members at the Cybertorps Japan's office. And the Brian Berendorf who is a GM of OpenSSF came to the meeting. And we had many discussion here. So I want to say thank you Brian. And thank you the member of OpenSSF member from Japan other than Cybertorps Japan. And this is my personal, not personal activity. Well, I'm promoting OpenSSF in Japan. This is a wild promotion. Recently I had three events and had speeches in each event. Japan's secret summit in October and HTECH November open source conference in November. In the Japan secret summit which is a virtual event for the World Cyber Security, my speech got the highest number of views. Congratulations. All right. And next is the breaking news. I stated yesterday this kind of breaking news. We decided to launch the OpenSSF Japan chapter. This should be open but initially let's do that as a small meeting. Well, we are gathering. We mean the OpenSSF Japan member, three companies gathering and LF Japan.  I will host the meeting. And at the meeting we will try to find the direction. Direction to what is a, this is what I said. What, how to contribute to OpenSSF? And what best way to contribute OpenSSF? How to grow like with OpenSSF? And after that we will open the meeting and we will public the message to anyone in Japan. This is also, I mean, of course the purpose is, the first purpose is of course to share. We are our idea, issues, challenges, status, anything related to the open source security. But the third purpose is of course the promotion of OpenSSF because it's very happy to me, for me to get involved. The many members get involved to OpenSSF. Right, that's the general. And at last, let me introduce the Cybertorch Japan's activities for open source security. Well, this is very late slide, but here let me introduce the Cybertorch Japan. Probably many of you don't know what the Cybertorch Japan. Cybertorch Japan is a company not making nice dishes like this. This is Cybertorch dishes, not a retail company, but a security and OSS company. Left-hand side is security. We have three pillars of business. So left-hand side is security. Actually Cybertorch is the first commercial certificate authority CA operator in Japan and which has over 20 years history. And this section is providing the electronic signature service also. And the right-hand side is OSS. We are providing the next distribution for Cybertorch, named as a miracle in X. Before, from Japan, there were multiple distributions, but now probably the miracle in X is the only one distribution for server from Japan. If, as far as I know, it survived, right? And the OSS section is providing also the vulnerability management tool, the Miracle Valhambra. M, in between, IoT section. I'm belonging to here. Well, IoT section is actually the fusion of OSS and security. And the focusing business area is IoT. This is providing the second distribution, reduction distribution for embedded system, EM Linux. This is based on Yachto and CIP. And also this section is providing the digital authentication, but probably the device lifecycle management service is provided, named as Secure IoT Platform, S-I-O-T-P, right? So this is a very fusion. Using the OSS and the provider security also. Three pillars. This is our company, Cybertox Japan. What I want to say here is our DNA is based on OSS and security. Right. So mobilization plan. As I said, this is stated, this was stated from the second open source security summit at the White House. It defined the three goals and ten streams to enhance and improve OSS security. So I'm not pointing the one by one, but please remember there are ten streams. And Cybertox Japan stated to focus on five points. One, three, eight, nine, ten. And I prioritize that especially the three points, number three, distance signature in the number nine, S-BOM everywhere, and number ten, better supply chain security. That's the most important focusing point for us. So let me introduce the activity related to them. First, stream three, this is all signature. And actually, this is for SIG store in concrete. To be honest, we are very newbie for this area. So same as the usual, the collaboration and the contribution starting point for open source, we are building that, trying that, and point out the not enough feature. So developing that and contribute. We are starting that. And the middle town goal for us is to operate the SIG store instance in Japan. That has a background. Well, it is from the experience of CA operation. If some severe incident happens, sometimes the government agency inspects the record. For example, police or some agency, right? In that case, but the Japanese police, the jurisdiction that power span is only inside Japan, please connect that record or something in US, in France, or in Germany, right? So the critical infrastructure operator, as our user, requires us to operate the CA instance inside Japan sometimes. SIG store is very important infrastructure even now, but it will be more. And I believe the same situation will happen on the SIG store servers. So providing the secure service is our responsibility. So I think to operate the SIG store inside Japan is also our responsibility. So we will do that. I'm saying I will do that. I will do that. So that's not done. So status is taxi to the runway. It is not flying. But we will do that. Oh, this is a structure. Please refer to that later. So second point, S-Bomb everywhere. This is also the focusing point for us. But we are very on unique position because as I explained, we have the relax distribution as a generator of the S-Bomb and vulnerability monitoring system, which is a user of the S-Bomb. So we can have boss experience and we can collect the voice of customers from boss. So I think we are very unique. So the first collaboration point is to collect the use cases of the S-Bomb and feedback to the community and collaboration. That's the first point, I think. So we will do that. And actually we are starting the S-Bomb promotion in Japan. S-Bomb is very important now. So we are saying, hey, S-Bomb is very important. Hey, please, let's make that. Let's use that in the private or public seminars or some, I mean, many meetings. And S-B-D-X. I know that now the S-Bomb format is not fluctuated. And there are two major S-Bomb formats. One is S-B-D-X and the other is S-B-B-D-X. And of course I don't mean the S-B-D-X is worse than S-B-D-X. And someone says that S-B-D-X is better because which can have more information comparing to the S-B-D-X. But this is 64% my personal opinion, not the company's opinion. But I think S-B-D-X has the advantage of openness. It is standardized as an ISO. And the development of S-B-D-X is free open. So I want to bet S-B-D-X. And actually, the side of Japan is focusing on S-B-D-X. We are not wasting the S-B-D-X, but the focusing point priority is on S-B-D-X. So we are making our product to adopt S-B-D-X. And that's the activity for S-B-B-D-X. Well, as I said, something is in the future and something is already doing.  We assume flying higher. Alright, so number three. Better supply chain security. Well, this is a point I'm very confident to say we are doing a lot. And we contribute a lot. Well, mainly on the EML Nexus development, we are contributing and collaborating with the community a lot. So this is an example. First is CIP, studio infrastructure platform. This is a community to provide a long support for, I mean, industry users. Actually, as a CyberTorch Japan member of CIP and actively contributing the development. And kernel CI. This is a test framework of the Linux kernel. And we are actively using that and actively developing that new feature in the bug fixes. And my colleague is a mentor of some project under kernel CI. And she is also the technical steering committee member of kernel CI. And Yachto, no, sorry. Let's call them. All that need is to say we are backpotting the many bug fixes. And Yachto. Yachto is a build system for mainly the embedded system. The EML Nexus based on the Yachto. And we are a heavy user and heavy contributor. We are backfix and developing the new features. And also we have one employee who is a Yachto ambassador. He is the only one Yachto ambassador from APAC. So he is promoting the Yachto. That's also the contribution. And at last, MetaDebian. MetaDebian or Debian. We are contributing a lot to the MetaDebian and Debian. So they are doing. And of course, not there. We are doing. And of course, we will do that. We are keeping on doing that. So the status is equal. Keeping on. All right. Three points. Our activity related to the mobilization plan. And at last, let me briefly say that why Cybertox Japan can contribute. Why I am very confident for each area. So first, distance signature. This is because of our experience of root CA operator with over 20 years history. The CA operation is very critical work. It must not be down. So we have experience and we have how to operate the critical infrastructure. So we are sure to provide the signature service as a same level of root CA. The related products are here. CA and the security platform that they are related to the signature activity. And that's about. As I said, why we can, because we are very in unique position as a user and generator. So we can correct many voices of users. So that should be the contribution for the community, I believe. And related product is everything because it's bomb everywhere. And last, better supply chain. Why we can contribute? Because we have two distributions and we are continuously improving them. That is a, that lead into the many cooperation and enhancement. The related product is Miracle-Renax, the distribution for servers, and EM-Renax, distribution for embedded IoT systems.
