Evolution of Mirai Live

[Ply]

It’s Tuesday. No stream?

Seems so.. Thats a little disapointing considering the 'big return' announcement. Guess theyre not just changing the video format, but also the frequency..

 

[Yamamomiji]

As I have understood, streams on Tuesdays are not weekly but from time to time with some announcement before. It's by no means as it used to be and no return to it.

 

[Ruddigger]

Ha, that’s what I suspected. He let people think it was a return to weekly live streams. They are neither live nor weekly.

That was a fun session.

Personally I love the new format and wasn't under the illusion that Mirai would be returning to weekly streams. Being able to see Ryan explain his decisions technically and artistically with help of visual media and drawing over images is really great. I don't get the strict desire to see a branch bent "live". I get a lot more out of the streams now than I did when Ryan could only explain his rationale verbally and with hand waving.

Learning about the design evolution of the Japanese Traditional model pre and post WWII was absolutely fascinating. 5 stars.
