Such an amazing video! So proud of you!

[egio]

I like to imagine this is how every one of her videos are made, this one is just unedited

[hiba_mughal]

I like how you started to move around sets and different locations. I love how much I learn from your videos.

At 3:55, who is to say that 25 percent of those people didn't genuinely get lost in a mall as a child?

[MarcomixToons]

High production value here! Is this the future direction for the channel? I'm all for it.

At about 1:50 I realized that the problem with history classes is they try to cram boring facts into your declarative memory when it should in fact be committed to procedural memory. This is why the musical Hamilton does so well. You get taught the same information as a normal history class, but plays are naturally remembered procedurally rather than declaratively.

I appreciated how you made that first scene so long, presumably to demonstrate the concept of memory. Very cool. Like the detail.

[sharplikerazor]

Very cool video, all of it! Love the busting of the 4th wall and the use of rooms to connect to the nature of memory. I'm also loving how your style is evolving

[vdevov]

This is very quickly becoming my favorite YouTube channel.

[jaredpenner]

one of my favorite of your videos. you production level has grown so much and I love it.

[NamanKhokhar]

That last... "Back in ancient Greece...", brought a smile to my face and I don't know why
Great video Vanessa :)

[nlyHIM]

You put a lot of thoughts to your videos, and for that I thank you.

[johnarbuckle]

you deserve so much more subscribers your content is great and i love the arte also you are quite beautiful

[joeyw]

By far my favourite braincraft video - makes a big difference for listening and retaining information when there's things like body language and purposeful information compared to voice over facts.

[wolfyaway]

Great video. Clear, concise and entertaining. Love this series. Please keep up the SiCom, we need so much more.

[carlosiscooking]

Great video! I really loved how you incorporated the end into the beginning!

[criticalinput]

Excellent video, great direction(I'm enamored with the faux continuous shooting style), and I love how the script played off of the topic. Fantastic job.

[kathleenhill]

Wow. Best video you've ever done! I'll remember this one for a long time.

[felipecarcamo]

I love your initiative. We can see your great results. Please, keep producing those little pieces of art with a lot of knowledge and reflections. Just keep been critical and creative. A hug from Santiago, Chile.

[mechanova]

One of the most visually outstanding videos you've done
