VFD Displays

VFD or Vacuum Fluorescent Display valhalla...

Big thanks to everyone that supports me!

Note: The title says VFD Displays, because VFD also means variable frequency drive... But technically the D in VFD is already the word Display.

"The strings need the springs because the strings stretch and the springs fetch the stretch of the strings" - just wonderful!

VFDs are basically the peak of 80's and 90's aesthetics. Fun to see these lit up on every Hi-Fi audio receiver system in the electronic shops.

Watching a Posy video feels like looking into a different world, one that seems nicer to live in.

The pro voiceover sound and tight script, the clean editing, the original score, and of course, the beautiful camerawork. Posy you are a renaissance man

It is interesting to know how engineers worked around the cost and technology to create the aesthetic they wanted in the old days. Nice contents as always and thanks for the new music.

I don’t know if there are well defined eras of YouTube, but your videos definitely feels like we’ve entered a new era. Shockingly original, fantastic, a joy to watch.

The extreme macro shots were unreal, your art is appreciated as always!

[bewg]

never realized how much I appreciate the aesthetic of these displays

[mrmii]

It is rare these days to find content of this quality. The camerawork, the music, the passion with which you talk about the topic. All truly fantastic stuff. I look forward to seeing more in the future!

VFDs have a special place in my heart. That turquoise glow (And i will die on that hill with you) with splashes of other colors for different elements will always be an aesthetic that remains unmatched by today's LCD and OLED displays.

[Mossic]

I’m always in awe of the atmosphere you manage to create, incredible work as always

[vocabpope]

I would absolutely love a longer form collection of several minutes each of all those macro shots. They're absolutely beautiful watching the pulsing patterns, 100% relaxing. Thank you!!

The macro-videography segment at 7:00, and the “VFD” song from your Fluorescent album, is an AMAZING combination.

I listen to this song daily. And you created a passion in me (wanting to model VFDs using your videos as reference)!

I am such a fan of this video, and of this song. Going to support you on Patreon too!

In the modern era where displays on most devices are so sharp and colorful, it's wonderful to see these displays of the past, especially in such detail that most people back then wouldn't have even noticed.

One of my strongest lasting memories from my childhood in the 80s was sitting in front of a hi-fi system watching the VFD EQ while Metallica and Guns n Roses played in the dark.

[pojcharapoltosukowong]

That's so intricately beautiful.

VFD display is really a lost art, the shear amount of engineering that goes into creating these display are remarkable.

Nowadays its replace with LCD/LEDs which yes is more efficient, but it just doesn't look and feel the same.

I didn’t know how much I love VFD until now XD It’s amazing how much character some of these display designs had an we toke it for granted. So nostalgic!

[_luke_anthony]

I think everyone can agree that we could all use more macro photography of vintage displays in our lives set to the tune of your brilliant music!

[cobralyoner]

VFDs are my favorite displays. i remember as a kid closely watching them for what must have been houres. I loved the fine detail and the slightly uneven glow

[MacquarieRidge]

I really hope VFD displays gain the popularity that nixie tubes have. They deserve to live on :)
