I learned so much about the objects themselves and how they would be handled for transport, which is so interesting, but then we also get such good ASMR - this channel is such a gem all around! 🥺
Marvelous to watch the care and professionalism it takes to create such a container to protect a museum object. Also appreciated the gentle commentary. I learned a lot and enjoyed the sounds of the construction. Thank you. Btw I really want one of those box knives! 😊
Thank you! As always, LOVE ASMR at the Museum! :) This is my ideal job.. working at the museum behind the scenes.. I would totally have an ASMR channel as part of my job too and I don't have a problem with whispering so I would do that too :)
This is absolutely NOT a criticism of this video! BUT does anyone remember Phil Hartman's Anal-Retentive series of skits on Saturday Night Live? This reminded me of those skits sooooo much!
SOME OF YOU ARE MAD...not every ASMR is a soft voice, some ASMR like this is about the cadence, accent and the movements of the speaker. Never forget that all ASMR is whispered low voices. Get some diversity in your ASMR mates.
Isn't it slightly odd to say nothing at all about the object itself except that it was a drinking vessel for rice wine? My guess is that it is of Chinese origin, because at one point there is a text statement in the lower left of the video dating it to "1662 to 1722", dates which are so precise and at the same time imprecise that they only make sense if one assumes them to be the dates of a ruler's reign - and which fit exactly as the dates of the Kangxi Emperor who belonged to the Qing dynasty and ruled over China. But then why not even mention China (or whatever other country this may have come from)?
I used to love your ASMR at the museum series, but the talking in the last handful of videos hasn't really fit the ASMR standard, which is quite disappointing! Maybe you could have the technicians speak in more of a whisper?
I only got a notification NOW. The description claims it was uploaded an hour ago. Something fishy is happening, and with your comments it almost makes me think it may not be _their_ fault but something to do with automated screening processes on TH-cam's side and the inclusion of the word "toxic" in the title...
@@Andygb78 It's tempting to blame it on society / the times, but you're late to the party and it genuinely was something fishy with how it was, or rather wasn't, showing to viewers. 🙂
People keep conflating softness of speech with volume, and that's at all what many of us are referring to. Turning the volume down on her isn't going to suddenly make it "more ASMR." Nor does "softer, please" mean we want whispers. Some folks (like Bob Ross) just naturally have a more soothing quality to their voice, even if their projected volume is slightly louder. In those cases, you COULD turn the volume down if it was too loud to sleep to, and it would still be soothing. Objectively, there's nothing "wrong" with this woman's voice. But she's very brisk, which is fine but doesn't lend itself well to being soothing...at least, not to a lot of us. That's what we're trying to say. We don't need whispers. We just like the sound of a gentler voice. If you can't tell the difference, then trying to explain it is probably sort of futile. I just want to emphasize that when we say we like softer voices, we're neither talking about phone volume nor whispering. That said, it's also important for people with our preferences to realize other folks DO like the brisk voice, and still find it calming. It's good to have a mix of things for as many preferences as possible (even if individual videos might be disappointing for the others, lol)
ASMR is not about volume. Bob Ross (THE undisputed master of unintentional ASMR) was even louder. I have the impression that people new to the "field" confuse ASMR with whispering. It does not have to,
@@alessandroaverchi7067I don’t think there’s any confusion. The fact is that people feel the same thing best from all different stimuli. I don’t find this video particularly asmr-y, partly from the way she talks and partly from the way she works - it’s all a bit ‘brisk’ for me.
@@alessandroaverchi7067 oh, I do agree with you, yes. What I meant was that obviously for some people whispering is where it’s at. Not for me, though, I’m with you, you either have an asmr voice or you don’t, whispering or not makes no difference
I can really appreciate a handmade box, and the preservation of old-school techniques. But while it would be far less charming, the V&A should 3D print these things, instead of making a craft project everytime something needs to be stored or shipped.
@@KaloCheyna The world of 3D printimg is vast, and rapidly developing. If there isn't already a filament that would work for their purposes (and I seriously doubt that there isn't), The V&A are certainly in a position to make it happen.
The whole time they're assembling the packaging, they're using sight, sound, and feel to moniter and make changes to the process. You can't do that with a 3d printer.
I assume they might be testing said technology in the background, making sure it is worthwhile. Big institutions like the V&A always like to take their sweet time before moving along with innovation ;) That said, as an outsider I feel like I would enjoy following this process a lot more than 3D printing it.
I had no idea each item had their own bespoke box for transport. It makes so much sense though, this channel teaches me so much
Big brain fuel this channel 🧠
0:01 - Behold the solid metal Stanley FatMax XTREME model 10-817 snap-blade utility knife. The box cutter of champions. 👍
my guy
this comment is awesome
I want one!
@@melissahilliard3583 Not too expensive and worth every penny.
Idk why I love this comment so much, but it really tickled me 😂
It hurts to see someone live your dream, but I’m also so happy for her lol

My dream job at my dream museum 🥺 currently beginning my masters program in Museum Studies so wish me luck!!!
Please do a whole series of creating these boxes
I'm surprised tape and hot glue is enough to carry a heavy box like that! I'd be putting that snugly in a wooden box next! 😮
Marvelous to watch the care and professionalism it takes to create such a container to protect a museum object. Also appreciated the gentle commentary. I learned a lot and enjoyed the sounds of the construction. Thank you. Btw I really want one of those box knives! 😊
Thank you Sarah, Julie and V&A. These videos are fantastic!
Really talented person and great to see the process to create the storage box. Very enjoyable video.
Totally appreciate the thought process and how our guide took us through it. 🇨🇦❤️
12:46 You'd think the V&A has a bone folder or two lyring around somewhere
I feel like this woman was one of the lucky ones who just found a way to make her OCD into a full-time job. Well done.
Hermès could not have done better. Quite a wonderful video. Thank you!
Evri.
This is lovely, you are so patient and I love your accent.
Lol, she doesn’t have an accent
@@clareshaughnessy2745 everyone has an accent
@@jkdw sorry, I was being a little facetious
@@clareshaughnessy2745 She sounds like she has a mild London/South East accent.
amazingggg process. ❤😊
Imagine museum tours were done in an asmr style. I'd be in there every single week 😊❤
These videos are sooo goooood
Love these videos! Keep it up please
Could you try a softer voice for some of these videos? Not on every video but for a few of them. I’d appreciate it as I’m sure others would too.
There are plenty of those videos around. She’s doing her job.
She has a soft voice!
Hearing from the actual experts is the best part.
@@parryyotter I know she is… Did I say otherwise? They don’t have to do what I’m politely asking for, it’s simply a request.
@@emersongarcia7128 Not to me.
Bring the textiles lady back
Thank you! As always, LOVE ASMR at the Museum! :) This is my ideal job.. working at the museum behind the scenes.. I would totally have an ASMR channel as part of my job too and I don't have a problem with whispering so I would do that too :)
Thank you for that video ! So helpful!
Usually I can't stand styrofoam's rasping noise but this time it feels quite sedating.
Comments need to chill
Sehr interessant !
thank you for not whispering.
😂😂😂😂
EXACTLY!!!
Lovely.Thank you.😺
Love it ❤
This is absolutely NOT a criticism of this video! BUT does anyone remember Phil Hartman's Anal-Retentive series of skits on Saturday Night Live? This reminded me of those skits sooooo much!
The chef was my favorite
Phil Hartman was sooooo hilarious, ala Frank Sinatra, etc❗
Surprised that you can use hot melt on the foam core.
What is the tape you are using ? lovely box
Ran didn’t walk to this video!! 🏃♀️
Adam Savage would love this video
Not just any old foam. Museum grade foam.
Absolute travesty that 90% of objects can not be seen by the general public.
Is there an advantage to closing it with bows, or is it to be pretty?
Its kind of like a half bow, secure but also easily undone when needed
Don't open a box if there's a hazard inside.
SOME OF YOU ARE MAD...not every ASMR is a soft voice, some ASMR like this is about the cadence, accent and the movements of the speaker. Never forget that all ASMR is whispered low voices. Get some diversity in your ASMR mates.
Isn’t building a box like that for each object going to take an enourmous amount of time thoufh?
Taking the extra effort to create appropriate conditions is sort of the whole point of museum storage
I want her job.
Shut the front door(of the box).
Isn't it slightly odd to say nothing at all about the object itself except that it was a drinking vessel for rice wine? My guess is that it is of Chinese origin, because at one point there is a text statement in the lower left of the video dating it to "1662 to 1722", dates which are so precise and at the same time imprecise that they only make sense if one assumes them to be the dates of a ruler's reign - and which fit exactly as the dates of the Kangxi Emperor who belonged to the Qing dynasty and ruled over China. But then why not even mention China (or whatever other country this may have come from)?
I thought this was really odd too! I expected to see the object's place of origin next to the date.
I think they’re trying to be an informative video first and it could also happen to be an ASMR video second (or third, or fourth in importance).
I used to love your ASMR at the museum series, but the talking in the last handful of videos hasn't really fit the ASMR standard, which is quite disappointing! Maybe you could have the technicians speak in more of a whisper?
ASMR is not just whisper. And it absolutely does fit the standard. I hate whispering, it irritates me. The soft voice is perfect.
@@gogglespisano24 Who said anything about whispering, besides you? Twice now.
I just took the volume down a bit. It's not quite soft-spoken, but pretty good.
I'm just gonna keep going back to the lady who had that old choir book, and the textiles videos. :P
Why does this have so few views
For me the video was coming up as ‘private video’, until now. Glad the issue is now resolved.
Yes, strange that they have it as unlisted

We live in a fast paced society where this sort of thing isn't popular.
@@Andygb78 It's tempting to blame it on society / the times, but you're late to the party and it genuinely was something fishy with how it was, or rather wasn't, showing to viewers. 🙂
Love everything but I wish there could be a way to lower in post-production this technician voice a little,it’s waaay too loud 🫣

Toxic but pretty
always the way, isn't it
The voice needs to be softer to be ASMR
that box is just for shipping? i imagine a ton of garbage is created from all the foam, that's all I could think while watching this, lol
They stay in the box. And there are limits to transporting really old, fragile artifacts. You use what works best to preserve and protect the item.
@@parryyotter The box will be the object's cosy new home for many years to come (unless it goes on display for a holiday of course!)🏖
Return the items where they belong.
NOPE! NOT ASMR. She's loud

I didn't find her too loud at all
Ah no this is not an ASMR voice…I love what you do with the series but it’s too loud…
It absolutely is. ASMR is not only whispering and tapping. I hate whispering. Soft voices, such as hers are a PERFECT trigger for me.
Please whisper. Now it’s not true asmr
Asmr does not equal whispering. I can’t stand whispering and prefer soft spoken. Your experience is not the same as everyone
The most meticulously hand crafted foam box of all time. That’s something to celebrate. Good ASMR also…
I have absolutely no clue what is going on here
I would probably say that under every asmr video from your's but thank you for doing this ❤
I loved this, thank you ❤
I think ive seen nurses wrap up newborns with less thought and care!
xouldnt the lid fall off and damage the item?
I can really appreciate a handmade box, and the preservation of old-school techniques. But while it would be far less charming, the V&A should 3D print these things, instead of making a craft project everytime something needs to be stored or shipped.
3d printed things won't absorb any impacts, and the plastics aren't exactly archival safe.
