Genuinely, the war on drugs and its effects on predominantly black communities siphoned off into the US prison complex to create unpaid manual laborers, paired with Snoop Dogg’s ability to smoke weed in public uncontested and unpunished for decades as both a sign of his status and also as a subtle revolt against that system is likely worthy of examination right now, even without hindsight.

A fun and frustrating story: My grandfather had a store in Tønsberg, an hour away from Oslo. One day a crooked and shoddy figure showed up to buy paint and brushes.. but he had no money and offered my grandfather some paintings as payment. My grandfather said no, and since he felt sorry for this man, he gave him the paint and brushes for free. That man was Edvard Munch, and my family would be rich today if he took those painting.. Damn you, grandpa!

I interviewed many drug addicts once for a project. One of the common statements about cigarettes is that they were anchoring. Even in the midst of hallucination or paranoia the cigarette, independently, remained stable and anchored in reality. By smoking the drug addict could keep something of a grip on the real world. Nicotine is a useful drug when removed from the harm of the tobacco leaf. Keep 'em coming.

Nicotine beyond the smoking aspect does appear to ground one, even in the midst of creative endeavors. I read something about a month ago on the writers for franchises like Star Wars and Marvel and others. They found a boost to the creative process when working together on scripts, seemingly helping them ground exotic stories in our commonplace world.

Carolyn Lozan I understand the hesitancy when it comes to e-cogs. They're new and untested, and a lot of people don't know if they actually. But, anything is better for you than a cigarette. Cigarettes are literally the worst thing for you; Heroin doesn't kill you as painfully and meth doesn't make you feel as awful ( hypothetically speaking, trust me, I hypothetically know ). The fact is, I would rather have people smoking flavored water that tastes almost exactly like the real thing than the kind of tar that could be used to fill in potholes.

max nordeau was a very weird individual to the point that he would consider the eradication of all other races but European/caucasion. this man was a zionist nutcase to begin with.

Just a side note, when Munch is describing an “infinite scream passing through nature” there is speculation that it’s possible he was looking at the volcanic ash of Krakatoa in Indonesia. The eruption was so great it was heard for over a 1,000 miles and caused a tsunami. The cubic volume of ash ejected into the atmosphere was enormous and would have caused redder sunsets around the globe.

I know, what I'm saying is paintings aren't the only form of art. Just because there are more popular forms of art today than there were 100 years ago doesn't mean that people just "don't give a shit about art." Art does not equal painting. Art is expression that can take many forms and people care very much about it still today. Paintings aren't as much of a force on society today because they are not as easily accessed by the majority of society, not because people don't care about art.

Edward munch and his bohemian contemporaries can generally be categorised as a people who completely immersed and lost themselves into the world of art, perceived in their own way, so that they don’t feel any sort of existence other than their artistic expression. This gives an impression about falling into the artistic insanity, a part which is present in each and everyone of us, but in this case conquered all of their mental state giving rise to their complete loss of them self and immersing themselves in their art. Can this be considered as a sort of artistic existentialism?

Evan, great video. I would love if you could do a video on modern art. Me and my friends got into a fierce discussion about modern art; me arguing for it's merits, and my friend argueing about its "pointlessness" and "meaninglessness", it's empty attempt to be as edgy as possible. I am far from an art expert, i'm not even that knowledgeable at all about it, so I would love to hear your viewpoint about it. Regardless, great video and keep up the good work!

I am SO glad I came across this channel... this is so amazing and educational... I love how you dive into the individual subject, how you express everything, the editing, the narration, all just perfect... I could watch this for hours!

Happy anniversary!! Thanks for the awesome video, Munch is my favorite artist!

Creativity is about perceiving and approaching the universe in an uncustomary way. Madness and art are forever intertwined.

This remains my favourite piece you've done. It's a wonderful glimpse into a world I would've otherwise passed over. I especially love the complicated sense of awe and reflection the musical pause at the end of your video evokes. Really hope you do more of these.

Wow! this one really resonated with me. I didn't know this painting. They never mentioned it in art school and I never looked into Munch's work either. I will message you privately and send you a painting I made and I think you'll understand why This one really spoke to me. Thank you for sharing this work and your insights on it. This (among many other reasons) is why I love your channel and the work you produce.

What a thoroughly incredible video. I love your explorations of art, the meaning behind the little details, and your ability to paint a vivid picture of the topography (both physical and mental) and the prevailing atmosphere the artist was inhabiting when he created his work. You've genuinely fostered a deeper appreciation for and understanding of art within me and I sincerely thank you for that! I got a chance to see the night watchman in Amsterdam a short while after your video on it came out and I don't think that I would have been so captivated by it and all the paintings surrounding it if I hadn't seen that and your other videos on art previously. Keep making videos like these. I adore them. Thanks again.

You really have mastered the video essay - well produced, fascinating, and informative in a way that can interest me in things I did not know I was interested in

An idea: when finishing the video, soon after all the reflection, put the painting of the episode at the end. I think this is the best time to enjoy painting.

As a medical student interested in art, I loved this video about Munch. For me, Munch has always been one of the greats. An artist who understood his suffering and relayed them through his art. The raw emotions displayed from his early paintings to later in the career is a testament of how Munch's psyche shaped his work.

You deserve all the best, man! I hope you get 1 million subscribers not just for your dreams to be fulfilled and you to speak to a whole lot of people, but for the said lot of people to connect through your work and to understand that life a continuous process of creation. We are created&creative creations. Art can come in many forms, but it will flow only if you understand and know yourself/your selves, as in many personalities :) May you grow to become a model for people who don't have enough faith in themselves! Keep up the amazing job! Cheers from Romania

KZread recommended one of these videos and keeps doing so. I love watching them. I’ve always wondered my whole life what people saw in paintings cause I didn’t know. I didn’t see anything. I’m 66. Now I’m starting to learn. Makes me want to go to a art showing with someone and stand in front of a painting pointing out things and make people think I’m a real art critic. Ha ha. It’s fun to learn something new. Thank you.

Aww, the ending confession of love to your sweetheart was adorable. I'm sure she liked it very much ✨😁💖

I love Munch, he is one of my favourites, I'm just disappointed by how the scream is often the only considered painting. He ha been so avantguard, such a great landscapist, symbolic, a surrealism that trascended realism for emotional, existential reasons. He truly represents one of my guru.

Recently I feel like I've been my whole life in thoughts, doubting myself, but since I've gotten to grow up, I'm starting to process a lot of my childhood and my surroundings. A lot of these feelings unload in creative actions. I fear, that I will never have the raw talent of the great people in this world, but I'm just used to putting myself down. That's why I'm trying to knock this idea out of my head. I feel like it's something that happens if you bottle up your feelings. It's nice to know this solitude is just an illusion and even great artists shared these irrational doubts.

There is a correlation in addiction, particularly in tobacco with mental problems (eg. Schzophrenia) physicians back then were probably making some (though unscientific) accurate observation. But they are very much wrong since correlation is far from causation.

I watched this video years ago, but it stuck with me and last month I got to see this painting at the Musee d’Orsay in Paris as part of a Munch exhibition, and I was so grateful for having watched this video, as it gave me a lot of context. Munch is definitely one of my favorite artists..

Speaking of anxiety, Nerdwriter's video-essays are therapeutic in themselves. They're each crafted just so, with every image and sound picked out and ordered, and when I watch them I'm taken out of my own mind a bit. The video pulls my attention and places it on topics larger than life, just for five or ten minutes. It's very nice.

hey man. I'm kind of going to break off into a digression but here goes: KZreadr Channel Criswell is going through some rough times what with copyright infringement on one of his recent videos (his stanley kubrick one from february to be exact.) now the reason i'm commenting on your video is because i believe you have the growing fan base and the potential knowledge to help his situation. from everything i know, he is in the right. he doesn't know what to do at all. his videos are spectacular -- just as yours. his videos open up the mind in the most natural sense of the word and allow for his audiences to truly consider and reconsider every sort of factor in the beautiful time-spelling art of film making. it is understood that you are a youtuber and he is a youtuber and you both use this wonderful platform of youtube to dispel wondrous information to the public. but you can help out too. if even just a shout out to his cause in one of your coming videos were to dispense, the context of the situation would radiate throughout and we could all democratically help each other, you know? thanks

I probably shouldn't have clicked on this video. Decided to put a break on smoking for one-two months and I've been feeling like crap these past few days. The image and numerous mention of cigarette makes my craving much worse hahaha.

I am smoking weed, tobacco and an e cig at the moment. I need to quit.

I enjoyed the way you moved from topic to topic in this videos. Cigarettes, bohemian lifestyles, art, and mental illness. I thought it tied together nicely. Learned a lot, as always.

Fantastic. We saw a Munch exhibit at SFMOMA last year and I was awestruck by his work. This kind of context makes it that much more enjoyable. Thanks.

Such a goddamn masterpiece of artistic analysis and creative meaning. With love, Another guy with Depression.

Everytime I see one of your videos i smile :)

This is my favorite painting. Thank you for sharing this.

Holy smokes, mate! This video is amazing! Thanks for doing it. All the best!

I smoke a pipe, however t'is not a pipe.

Vincent van gogh is an amazing artist

I like these videos a lot. They're well edited, well written, well researched, and well thought out. A lot of effort went into this and I feel like I know a little bit more about art. Thanks for uploading this, congratulations on your one year anniversary ^_^ Hope the move is going well!

I just discovered your channel @nerdwriter1 and its so amazing man from your video editing skills to the facts you drop about these paintings its honestly mindblowing! I LOVE IT! keep it up :)

painters don't (or at least didn't) integrate elements into their paintings "just because". i think what he said in this video about cigarettes is really smart

Or he simply loved smoking..you'd have always seen him holding a cigarette, so he thought "well, the cigarette has to go in the there"...This is coming from an artist. We don't always consciously throw in symbolism. Following intuition and doing what feels right are more dominant. Most of the time, it starts with the desire to draw/paint a subject, then we throw in other elements (it feels right, makes sense and makes the painting more interesting) and finally think of a story to go with it because people today are more interested in the story than the art itself!

hey evan. I'm a student from germany, trying to figure out myself, man, society and just life in general. So there's a lot going on in my head. Which is why I would just like to thank you for the content you give me, for every new video you release is a gift, allowing me to spend at least a couple of minutes just looking at culture and the world through your eyes, and not that mess of mine. So... thanks. A lot. Your work is beautiful and, above all, necessary.

A very good and insightful view both art and the influences that inspire it. The Scream has been a good identifier in explaining to others what anxiety often feels like. It may not be my perfect representation but it is something that is illuminative. I appreciate this as someone who has experienced the harness of the mind and as an artist who tries to express the wonders of the mind. Thank you.
