Guitar Oscillations Captured with iPhone 4

I just happened upon this trick when testing what it was like filming from inside my guitar. *Note this effect is due to the rolling shutter, which is non-representative of how strings actually vibrate. Tips: • You must have the strings brightly backlit to get the camera to capture at such a high frame rate (pure conjecture). You can see how the effect fades when the buildings come into view. • Use a pencil *This was used with the front facing camera, try the back camera, it may capture better! (tried it, it didn’t look as good for me) There is a heated discussion with *real science* over at reddit www.reddit.com *UPDATE here is the ‘tracklist’ :14 – “Tears in Heaven” by Eric Clapton :56 – “Signe” by Eric Clapton 2:57 – Snippet of “Tomorrow Land” by John Scofield – the rest is just noodling around. Also, I never thought I’d be known as a ‘youtube guitarist’, I just play for fun- I’m actually a motion graphics designer/animator. Check out www.justkyle.com follow me on twitter! http
I will show you how easy it is for someone to steal the information on your phone and more importantly, how to prevent it. I will be using my very own phone as a tester, and purchasing the software that would be used to hijack your phone completely. This process takes less than 5 minutes. A jailbroken iPhone is required but similar spying applications also exist on android and various other smart phones where a jailbreak is not required.

You should do a whole song with that urban background, and other scenes. Cool!

There’s always the possibility that it could be fake; I agree. But I believe it’s real, and the only thing that makes these videos special is the iphone 4’s way of capturing video. But best of luck to you! Post videos of cool things if you find a suitable phone.
@RisingPhoenix120
I think I must have watched this video about 10 times today….. the mathematician/physics enthusiast in me want to think “oh yeah of course!”…. and then the other voice in my head is saying “don’t believe every video you see”. All I know is I have to find someone with an iphone 4…
@ElRoberto182
I believe it is caused by the fact (correct me if I’m wrong) that the iPhone captures video/images from one side to another. This video isn’t implying that the string has points, but when capturing video from one side to another at a low frame rate, you can achieve an effect like this.
Fake. “rolling shutter” or not, at no point when a string is plucked does it have points or corners. Nice editing work.
???!
@mateusnds *Note this effect is due to the rolling shutter, which is non-representative of how strings actually vibrate.
this is ot fake, i made a video like this also after watching this. i used an ipod nano 5g but i think any camera should work. the important thing is there needs to a lot of light behind the strings, but if the sun is directly behind at will be too much light, but a clear blue sky will work
might be cooler if the Guitar was in tune and the? guy could actually play.
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe
@Johannesmostert You’re right, this is fake… unless he had special lighting or framerate.
Curioso
watching this baked!
its a stroboscopic effect
great!! what is your name?? (:
First I thought this was Tim McIlrath.
This is fake. I tried it with an iPhone4 and an iPod 4g as well as 2 windows phone 7 devices and a black berry 9700. None of them had this effect.
@kai6216 i wanna learn that song soo bad!
please tell me.
what is music name from 1:00?
i can see where he favours the strings because they’re eroding.. one time, i eroded my g string (violin) so much it snapped during the performance. it was awkward….
this is amazing:)
I wish I could play a guitar it is amazing!!!
@OwayneKhoo93 0/10 or just really damn stupid.
@kuppsgirl God i used to love that song sooo much until I finally figured out what Eric Clapton was actually singing about.
@EzThePker Check the vid description. Hes a motion graphics animator. Retard.

or how to cheat vids!
wait what did m8trxd say?
@daytripper971 They patched the passkey exploit in a software update
@BestUsernamePossible Jailbreaking is hacking your iPhone to install the application “Cydia” which is basically a bootleg App Store where you can find all the apps Apple doesn’t want you to have.
@wstmess Will you fucking stop saying fuck every other fucking word? It’s fucking stupid, fucktard.
@BestUsernamePossible It lets you download 3rd party apps that Apple doesn’t allow
now I know your iPhone password!!!! hahah
41 mails nice
@m8trxd Hope he beats the shit out of you
What does “jailbroken” mean…..
Thumbs up for having a smart phone
@nicknames11 not for it, if they type c or cy or something, then it’ll show.
156 smart phone hackers have watched this video and are now out of business XD
passkey? you guys uploaded a vid showing how to get through that too! fuck apple!
@socksleever if someone doesn’t have cydia already on their ipod/phone why the fuck would they search for it?
How to partner with Youtube? Thanks!
prevent what?
the funny thing is, on a previous episode they showed us how to get through the pass code…
