Why would it be manipulated?
I will try. I think nt1's claim is that pretty much all of the videos of 9/11 that he can find show signs of having been tampered with. "Masking lines" and "Alpha Channel Halo". As I understand it, that suggests some wide spread conspiracy around the events. If true I suppose it would. I honestly have no way to tell if this true in anyway. He clearly knows a lot more about electronic video manipulation than I do. This would be a conversation for someone like captain disillusion, not me.
That's an old joke funny only to me. I had a teacher once that no matter how difficult to understand a concept he would always say, "It should be obvious to the most casual of observers!" I only use that line when I know its exactly the opposite.
I have doubts too. I spend everyday fact checking and learning and rethinking.
For what its worth, these pictures are a perfect example of issue. I know they are pictures, from context I assume they are frames from videos of 9/11, I can also tell the colors have been manipulated. That's I really know. I can guess that in one you can see the white line around one of the people and I assume this is what you mean by alpha channel halo? I really have no idea if that means what you think it means because this is the first time I've heard or read the phrase.
Jack. I ran out of energy for a little bit. Thank you for your questions and thanks for asking me to show how to adjust the sliders. Ill show what i learned.
That's a bit unfair, this is more complicated than just pareidolia. Anomaly hunting to be sure, put not seeing patterns in randomness.
Let's grant that he's 100% correct, that weird lines show up (without talking about obvious reasons they might show up if you adjust the colors). What does this prove? I mean, I get that he's trying to do the hootchie koo here--showing just enough to keep folks interested, but I fail to see how this is any more significant than Killtown's numbers (he also did faces at one point IIRC) in the smoke.
Well the building is either collapsed or still standing. I tend to think collapsed, and manipulated video doesn't change that. Is the idea that literally all videos of the collapse have been tampered with and no raw footage is available any longer? If so, the official conspiracy to hide what "actually happened" is so thorough that releasing video that contains signs of tampering must have been done on purpose by the conspirators to give internet sleuths something to focus on that distracts them from the real "truth". "plans within plans within plans", to borrow a phrase from Dune.
This is fun
