Life After People

Keep checking this link, until all 20 of the the videos are released:

As of 26 Mar 2023 (6:06AM UTC), there are eight videos.

While Life After People thrives on the sea and buried on the ground, lets talk about Aftermath. Aftermath: Population Zero is a documentary based on The World Without Us, just like Life After People, and the show is made by surprisingly the History Channel in Canada.

However, there is a reason why Aftermath: Population Zero doesn't have a page in the wiki. Aftermath is a series. It only has 5 episodes, but the Wikipedia page have preserve all the episodes with a summary, except for Population Zero due to violation of no original research and it has its own page before its decimation.

So please, any new editors, just try not make any pages related to Aftermath: Population Zero, it has a series on its own rights. (Or maybe start a fandom wiki about Aftermath)

On this day last year, I was making tens, if not hundeds of edits each day to the wiki, as I had done for the past few months. Back then, there were far easier methods to upload larger images, edit text in sections, and generally contribute a lot more.

But since Oct/21 ended, the computer started slowing down, making it harder to do bulk edits or mass uploads without it screeching to a halt (think KTAO). Google changed its image search engine as well, instead using LEns in place of Google Image Search. It presents too many images to search through, so to upload larger images, I have to type in http://images.google.com or scroll through tons of Lens results.

Both methods waste moer time, so I eventually resorted to using older Windows versions for easier edits. When they were updated and I started using more computers as well, files began to be divided and unreaachable between them, save for Google Drive/wiki uploads. (or very time-consuming NAS storage transfers).

The loss of images from Vimeo videos (Apr. 22) has also affected my organisation of my existing files, having to account for many more lower-quality videos to replace them (on teh canon wiki). The discovery of the main documentary in FullHD quality also took more time away from the canon wiki, but once the important parts were complete, I tried to edit here again (to a lesser extent, if even possible.) It was a very different place than when I had left (for a short time, anyway).

Newer users started uploading files and creating pages that were hard for me to manage (as they couldn't create it themselves and had to share it via Drive or message walls), and making timelines I had no idea how to edit. So rather than wasting time making useless little edits (as opposed to large ones then), I decided to give up on the fanon wiki for some time.

After having left for so long, I gathered together what I could from my own files, and started doing bulk uploads sporadically. (e.g. Times Square, and other landmarks featured both here and on the canon wiki.) Still, finding anything to put up is getting more difficult as more canon files (often quite a bit more blurry than previously) are added, new pages with wildly varying timelines are created, and the supplies of files and edits I can add might run out soon.

This post is not meant to attack or cause dispute between others' edits since the beginning of '22, but it is only a past reflection of the differences between this year and the last (computer, file and edit problems, other LAP contents, etc.). Loose ends had to be tied at some point, such as the LA restoration (which had seen more images being added, straining more time to work here.), and a lot more (such as LAP music videos, city compilations, and other canon-based activity. There are some more, but at the time of writing, this is all I can think of now.

Continue editing as you have been, but I may be absent for a while these days. It is up to you to keep the wiki running, and one day I may leave it to you and disappear for even longer. (The wiki will hold a special place in my ocmputer files, but it may not be worked on, though it could be read, as just a skim of the recent changes and contents.)

This post has a counterpart on the fanon wiki:

Concepts and productions of Life After People have been discovered in Vimeo. These were uploaded 9-12 years ago, by none other than Ten-Eighty themselves. These productions include the full clip of the US Bank Tower, Petronas Tower, John Hancock Tower, and the gargoyles of Chrysler Building. This also include 3d animation reel by Jeff Stoyer (only 3 Life After People related content were featured in the reel) and Austin Fleming (uploaded multiple times as Demo).

The reel made by Austin Fleming contains an interesting scrapped content, Coca-Cola (pictured). It is possible that Coca-Cola suppose to be featured in Outbreak (as its building was).

The channel on Vimeo will be linked here.
