"Can I show you my favourite piece of pixel art?"

I had originally planned a video on some of the technical peculiarities of floppy disks, but during the early stages of that project I was struck with inspiration for another. 

Four-Byte Burger is a bit of an odd one - there's a blend of tech history, with some deep analysis and practical demonstration. I'm not sure it will hit the fancy of my traditional subscriber base, but it's good to indulge in the unusual sometimes.

I’m all for the unusual, you don’t make bad videos so I’m really looking forward to this :)

Brian Marsh

Oh man, I know what I'm watching during lunch. And I agree with Anthony - the unusual is great.

Oh very very nice! I'll need to order in a takeaway and will watch this one in the living room tonight :O

Rick Adams

Awesome vid. Really like the direction of this!

Jared Fry

Can't wait to watch this after work. Best of luck with the launch!

Troy Gilbert

A really phenomenal video. I bet the original artist would love to see this.

Parallax Abstraction

A really fascinating departure from your usual kind of content. Top tier work as always!

I think Four-Byte Burger will be my desktop wallpaper for awhile. Thanks for being willing to make a video so different from your usual content. It was a joy.

Ryan

It's nice to be kept on my toes with stuff like this and the Barrels video. Great work!

Jim neal

That’s a work of genius sir 👏🏻👏🏻

Sam Ford

Absolutely stellar work. Your slow descent into burger madness was brilliant.👌

BishopMew

I know you literally made a video talking about boxes but for real I would be able to watch you talk about anything.

Loved this.. any chance you'll release a copy of your reproduction or will people need to screenshot it from the video ;P

Andrew Laing

Well, I know what I'll be watching for the next 2 weeks on repeat going to bed. Watching it wide-awake this time! Superb, man.

Julien Derivière

This is amazing! Well done, sir :) I had never heard of this burger before, but I could feel the nostalgia just watching your video <3

This was super cool. I love people making videos like this on niche passion projects. I have no knowledge of any of this stuff so it was super informative as well as entertaining. Thanks :)

So inspiring to watch this work. Really connected with the conclusion, especially that it was a 'worthwhile waste of time' because, after all, its a difficult thing to determine.

There’s nobody producing better Amiga history videos out there. This was incredible, and Flatline + Trackers are masterpieces.

I honestly could not tell if this was an elaborate joke, but I started a Patreon account for it regardless.

SamEricEdge

Nothing short of amazing.

Arthur Banda

Same After this and the video about graphics from history It was a must. Definitely cant wait for more content

Truly stunning reproduction, I often thought about reproducing this image on the Amiga and you have saved me doing so.
