This is such clever and awesome idea! Who would have thought putting your iPhone 4 inside a guitar and using its camera could create such cool and creative video. I never really did see this coming and this is such a novel idea that most people havent seen or tried such an experiment before. Learn more from this video and you might want to try it for yourself! Have you seen such before?

Whether inside or outside of the guitar, a camera would be able to see the same things. This is a modified video. The vibrations would be so fast, the eye (and I seriously doubt an I4 camera) could pick them up.
Snowden says there’s a backdoor to every iPhone. I don’t want the government knowing what a lousy picker I am.
Anybody who’s met my ex already knows that I was a lousy picker...
Snowden has claimed some things he couldn't possibly know. This is one of them. The paper he leaked about the iPhone's supposed "back door" was referring to a means of intercepting devices physically and inserting software into the device. It was called "DROPOUTJEEP" . . . and lots of people including the government of Germany panicked into dropping use of iPhones and iPads when Snowden revealed it. One problem. The date on the leaked document was 10/01/08. . . only THREE months after the APP store opened for business!
Secondly, DROPOUTJEEP specifically states it is an "implant" exploit. . . requiring "close access methods" to deploy. i.e. physical access to the iPhone to install the spyware. People assumed it was new, current, and effective, instead of old, outdated, and most likely NOT effective, given the major changes that had been made in iOS over six years. The only way it could get on a user's iPhone is before the user receives it by interception means.
“Snowden has claimed some things he couldn’t possibly know. This is one of them.”
Pssst,,, when he had access, he stole things he had no participation in or knowledge of. Bradley Manning wasn’t exactly an expert on the terrabytes of info he downloaded and stole.
Apple is a spy tool. Sorry for apple fanboys.
Clever and interesting.
Sweet!
The government requires that those engaged in the telecommunication business to give priority information on the development well in advance of any approval of commercial or defense application of the technology or information - the government virtually owns everything and you are allowed to marked it with their approval. Whatever you read into this is true and worst than you may well imagine.
That’s a video artifact called aliasing. It’s related to the effect you sometimes see in older films where a wagon wheel will appear to rotate backwards. The reason it’s noticeable here is that the dark strings are starkly silhouetted against the bright sky. That’s not the case normally. I don’t think this video has been doctored.
“The reason its noticeable here is that the dark strings are starkly silhouetted against the bright sky.”
No, If the video had been taken inside an area illuminated by artificial light emitted at... 60hz then artifacts from aliasing causing this type of result might be slightly possible. Natural light from the sun would not be capable of creating this type of illusion.
That’s awesome! Thanks for posting it!
I would add that I have had an oscilloscope for many years. It can be used to determine the frequency of sound that has been converted to an electronic signal using a microphone. The relatively pure sound that comes from a single guitar string after initially being plucked appears to be an almost pure sine wave which is not how the strings in this video appear. The length between the peaks will vary depending on the frequency and how the oscilloscope is set up, but the shape does not.
And when he said this, Snowden RELEASED the basis for his claim. . . a paper dated October 1, 2008, just four months after Apple opened the iPhone App Store outlining how they could now intercept iPhones (the ORIGINAL model) and physically load a hack into it, that could spy on specific targets. . . NOT that there were backdoors built in. This back door software was called "DROPOUTJEEP":
You are right, he was not an expert on what he downloaded and stole. This was one of them. . . but he expounds on it and everyone takes what he says as Gospel truth because he'sspeak the name with awe SNOWDEN!
Note that programers have deeply examined the code on iPhones and iPads and have never found any backdoors or anything like one. Recently a guy named Jonathan Zdziarski claimed to have found Apple's iOS "backdoors". . . but it turned out what he thought were "backdoors". He claimed these backdoors were transmitting user data somewhere. He said, and I quote "I don't know what these do, but they are very suspicious, and when activated they collect user data! I don't what they do with it, but they connect to WIFI! Zdziarski even wrote a paper about his big find of Apple's back-doors which he claimed were "undocumented" and presented it at a security conference.
However, these files were merely Apple's SYNCing routines used to backup and restore the iOS devices with iCloud, or to the user's computer over WIFI, and through USB. Other developers said, "Uh, no. Here are these APIs and Libraries, right here in Apple's documentation under system, non-developer, non-user files. Did you bother to look?" Apple even responded to this one and stated what they were: non-user system sync and diagnostic files. Anti-Apple FUD spreaders are still jumping on this bandwagon claiming the backdoors were found by Zdziarski, even though he's been debunked.
It actually is not modified. I thought you might be correct. . . and so did my daughter. But when i thought about it, I realized that it would not be. I was wondering the same thing. . . but it doesnt take the vibrations to be exactly in time with the 30 frame per second video. . . Just that they be in tuned to some equal multiples of that. . . and then it would work fine. For example a 60 cycle hum would show quite nicely. . . so would a 90. . . 120, 150, 180, etc. For example a natural A is 440 cycles per second. That would not be seen on the video. . . but detune it up by just 10 cycles to A 450 (divisible by 30) and youd see standing waves on the string. A 440 would be visible with a moving wave running backwards at ten waves per second.
Then I found the guy who put his phone inside the guitar had not just done it blind. He HAD videoed it from outside and got some similar waves up and down the strings. . . and ALSO used a violin bow on it. Then he videoed a violin in a similar way. . . and got the same kind of waves only much more clear. Here is that video.
No. It really is an aliasing effect caused by the interaction of the string frequency with the line rate of the camera sensor. It is the same effect that caused the weird distortions in aircraft propellers recorded on phone cameras.
Here’s a good example of phone camera sensor aliasing for an aircraft propellor.
