Director's Commentary: Hexagons are the Bestagons

Fun Kilo @imkilo

I just joined Patreon and was going through back catalog, I see that Grey did repost to the Patreon but called it "Behind the Scenes" https://www.patreon.com/posts/behind-scenes-of-84462722

Not available. :(

I was just trying to watch it, too. Never saw it, originally, but re-watched and was curious what Grey says about it.

Is this video supposed to be private yet still listed here?

I will be productive this evening. I just check if Gray released his commentary and add it to watch later. Well. :D

I was waiting for Obsidian talk :/ I guess Cortex will provide :)

Please fix the link!

CGP Grey

Link fixed, sorry about that! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsVRqis7w54

link broken :(

Darn I would prefer to just have the unedited version, and get it sooner. Also means less work for gray and the team so they can (maybe) get another real video out earlier, or at least start working on one

I wish I could watch this

Scott Bell

Ditto

The news from Discord is that it’s being edited again, and will be re-uploaded (again) later.

Not working for me either...

Hey, the post says that the link is updated to an edited version but it's not working. Would love to watch the commentary if I could access it!

i have the same question, i joined the 5 euro tier but for the wallpapers it says that requires the 3euro tier, but surely that should be included in all tiers above it as well right??

Word on Discord is that the video is being edited again and will be re-uploaded later.

This is off topic question(sorry, new to Patreon....not sure best place to ask this question). I am at the level to view Directors Commentary. Should I be able to view/download wallpaper as well?

Maybe TheReddit will get an answer faster: https://www.reddit.com/r/CGPGrey/comments/jnl72k/hexagons_are_the_bestagons/gb53d6g?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Then how do we get access to it? Do we have to become members?

lancedragons

Looks like it's available via Youtube's membership program, which is probably a better system, since these were just public unlisted videos

Peggy (Lizzytpau)

Glad it’s not just me

Claudiu Ionescu

Looks like it

video removed?

PC Escobar

Is it weird that the Kurt Vonnegut reference was my favorite part?

Since the plane is spherical, and hexagons tessellate regularly on a plane, I would say yes?

Rok Pušnik

props to the animator, I guess, snuck it in

hey Grey, just wanted to say thanks for uploading this video today and doing a full Director's commentary. You really provided a deep dive into a fascinating subject and made all the little details super riveting on a day when I'm having a hard time focusing on non-current-event related topics.

I like how there is a glitch in the video and grey doesn't know about it!

Can hexagons grid on a spherical plane? Does it preserve its stability?
