I’ve recently watched Oppenheimer on 35mm and 2001: A Space Odyssey on 70mm film and wondered how the audio works when it is printed on the film.

Does the film go through another machine before going through the projector?

    “Have you ever wondered why [thing] is the way it is?”

    NOPE NEVER! But I’m all ears, let’s hear it!

      He is the shit. Similar vibe and quality with Techmoan.

      “Have you ever heard of or cared about how this niche and now probably obsolete audio or video format or product worked?”

      No, I didn’t even know it existed. But I am now deeply emotionally invested in him getting that obsolete junk electronic toy working!

        “Do you have any feelings whatsoever about the way automobile taillights work in the US?”

        “No, why would I?.”
