When you're wide awake one hour of this would be like a Chinese water torture. Hard to imagine Americans used to fall asleep in their easy chair at 1 AM with this blaring in the background.
Decided to search this up because it was mentioned in the novel we were reading (There There by Tommy Orange) Very interesting to say the least It has that tinge of eerines that these kinds of sign off visuals have to them..
Huh. didn't know there was a 16:9 version of this. My project with an original 2F21 tube made in 1939 only produces a 4:3 pattern. See: My project called, The Chief.
was kind of a comforting thing too if you had already fallen asleep in front of the tv and it woke you up and coaxed you to your comfortable bed instead of in the terrible position you were sleeping in fully clothed.
We should go back to these simpler times. Immediately before and Immediately after the National Anthem would play. America was a stronger, less divided place!
"The Indian head in the jar, the Indian head on a spike were like flags flown, to be seen, cast broadly. Just like the Indian Head test pattern was broadcast to sleeping Americans as we set sail from our living rooms, over the ocean blue-green glowing airwaves, to the shores, the screens of the New World." - Tommy Orange, There There
Getting up early on Saturday mornings, turning on the tv to watch cartoons and would be greeted by this. Waiting to hear the National Anthem knowing the broadcast day was about to start.
Tommy Orange's Pulitzer-prize-nominated first novel, "There There," features this test pattern in the Prologue, weaving it into a metaphor about Indian (Native) history. The novel is set in modern-day Oakland, CA, and is a nothing less than a masterpiece.
This here in Brazil tv 50s
Still love that show.
When you are on vc with your Ukrainian friend:

How many MHz is this pitch? and why is this so soothing?
Someone mentioned 445Hz, but it sounds closer to 440Hz to me--concert A on the treble staff.
@@spencerhunter1596 Calbrated ear? Or do you have tuning forks?
When you survive a nuclear attack and turn on the T.V to see if there's a broadcast of some sort.

Yeah because know one knew the truth behind this image until now
@@yawn4983 no one knew
That's the most boring Western ever.
Only Earl Sinclair would think a Test Pattern is a great program. You get up to go to the bathroom, you come back, and nothing's changed.
This channel needs more updates!!!! Please!
please standby

What is the origins of the indian head test pattern

I liked the part where it went beep
It’s a movie about Indians, but it’s really boring, man.
Hey, man, that ain't a movie, man. That's a TEST PATTERN, man! 😆
@@richartrod . Far out man.
I hear Disney Plus has bought the rights to a reboot. 🤣
Cold War
Hope nobody gets offended.
WHY 445Hz???
445 Hz is easier on the ears than 1000 Hz, which is almost like a screech.
Wrong aspect ratio.
Is this a Netflix original
