In Madagascar's wild, where tales do unfurl, A bard sought webs, with a musical whirl. With a village's aid, his quest was grand, Each thread a gift from their helping hand. Together they wove, each string with care, Crafting a guitar, a treasure rare. For his gratitude immense, he shared his art, And they dubbed him Spiderman, with joy in their heart.

The idea of a conservation group rushing to protect a spider was pretty sus. I love spiders but they're the definition of "Least Concern", they reproduce and populate areas in cosmic numbers, you couldn't endanger most spider species in their native habitats if you tried.

@V3P0X-711

Ай бұрын

Them concerning for an abundant species instead of endangered ones

@yvrelna

11 күн бұрын

While the species as a whole might not necessarily be endangered, collecting that many spiders all at once from such a narrow area could still cause problems to the local insect population. Also, by recruiting villagers who are not really trained for identifying spiders, they could also be causing problems to other unrelated species that got caught. But yeah, for a single string project like this, this is probably a bit overblown. But assuming that they're an actual conservation group, they're still right to be concerned about the man's intent, if it turns out that he had planned to actually commercialize this operation into a bigger project. They're working on hearsays from other villagers, so they might not necessarily have the full picture of what this guy's intent when they come to the hotel looking for him.

- Grandma, grandma, tell us the story about the spiderman! - Ah yes... that one great stranger. He came out of nowhere. Europe some say, some others say south Africa. We never knew for sure. He asked the people of our lovely village to catch spiders for him. All kinds, big ones, small spiders, any type would do. And he would pay us greatly too! So quickly all the village got buckets full of spiders to the kind stranger. - The elder woman took a moment to breath - You wouldn't guess what he had done with the spiders. - What did he do grandma? - He made a guitar string of spider webs! A full guitar string! - There's no way, a spider string is way too weak to be a guitar string! - One kid said and the others followed. It is true, a spider web breaks with the slightest effort of one's hand, imagine as a guitar string! Simply impossible. - Yes, but he did it anyway. - The old woman telling the story rested her hands on her lap - He used many spiders and many many webs, the legend say He kindly asked the spider king for the string in exchange of bugs and water! - And the spider king gave him the web? - Well but of course. The spider king wasn't a fool like yourself. - Ewwww no! I don't want bugs, what would I need them for? - Spiders eat bugs you dummy! - Another kid came in the conversation. - Yes indeed. Some people say that after everything was over, the great Spiderman went away without saying much more. - And what did he do with the spiders? - Oh... you wouldn't like to know. - The old woman stood tall in the front of the children. - Before he went away, some people think that he just - She got close to the kids, talking softly - HE ATE ALL OF THEM! - The old woman screamed and the children went away scared but laughing. And that was the legend of the great Spiderman. thanks for reading, I got carried away but it was fun to write it

It's even more impressive if you consider that some mad folks have made a gown/cape from golden orb weaver silk from Madagascar. It's hard to imagine how much labor that must've taken.

Given the attentiveness of the locals, if one were to administrate the process there domestically it looks pretty possible. If they have so much labor readily available, it could be profitable for them if you could train, administer, and distribute.

At the beginning of the video, my first thought was "why tf not try ukulele?" - 4 short strings, less tension... Good proof of concept. But I'm glad you did come so close to E, I'll count it that you made it! I think the string was too thick to be an E string on a regular guitar. Probably would have lasted a lot longer as a B or even G string. If you made it slightly thinner you would have accomplished the E. Really curious about the math you did on how much web you need for it, but then again, you didn't calculate that Ukulele would have been a more attainable goal, so can't trust your number on the string requirements either, can I? :D But hey... MASSIVE PROPS for the project. I have a pet tarantula and I'm not letting you anywhere near it, but still... Well done!

Mattias, this was NOT a waste of time. That spider web string has a unique sound to it. There should be a way to strengthen the spider web somehow either through chemical reaction or the way you weave the individual webs together. This video kept me smiling and engaged.

Its entirely possible since the tensile strength for the web is compared to steel of the same size as said silk web i believe its just a matter of how many spiders can you get to weave it together to make it more durable for playing on

@@unrealsavage9463 Yeah, just needs a lot more spiders. It would also be more helpful if they were using lab bred spiders that they could guarantee the health and diet of the spider and resulting in a more consistent quality of silk. However golden orb weaver silk is incredibly expensive and time consuming. A few years ago people made a cape out of the silk, it took 8 years and is valued at around $400,000. It would be much more efficient to use silk moth caterpillars, which are what are usually used to make silk. Would love to see a guitar strung entirely like this.

@jonathanodude6660

thought emporium has a project to make custom silk using the silk genes found in a variety of spiders which can be tuned for different uses. its an old video now but there are even opportunities to use genes that no natural spider uses to give the silk even more interesting properties. basically GMO silk. its pretty interesting and would take much of the animal harvesting right out of the process. getting rid of the "sticky" genes can make durable natural silk replacement and IDK if it was in the video but depending on the genes you can make it bulletproof or stretchy or stronger than rope etc.@@avaleloc1513

The overwhelming majority of people who will watch this video probably can't quit their jobs, and likely *will never be able to go on an international trip for similar passion projects for 6 months* , because they are too poor, because that's how economics and numbers work, because that's how statistics work.

Silk farming boils silkworms alive while spider silk farming has spiders lie on their back while they're milked. Spider milking is MUCH more ethical than the mass silk farming we have already. The biggest issue is time and energy. While silkworms happily eat and coccoon together, spiders attack and eat each other, so they have to be trested and milked individually.
