What is ASMR?
In my subjective view, ASMR is 2 things: a sensation and a medium (like music for example).
The sensation itself (ASMR) stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and is the current (non-scientific) name given to the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering and personal attention.
ASMR videos, the medium, are not only meant to help induce the sensation or "tingles", but also help provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer while helping to relieve their anxiety, stress, headaches, insomnia, to help those suffering with PTSD or depression, to serve as a study aid and much more. It is quite therapeutic, for both the creator and recipient, not much different than the mediums of music and painting.
Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy affect. - Zábava

As somebody who works in a library I have to say it is really appreciated when people openly recommend and support using public libraries. The library I work at is packed almost every single day but still so many people believe that libraries are dying out. I think it is especially important for kids to have access to a library as it promotes tons of development in not just reading skills but social skills as well. I never really had an appreciation for books until I started working in a library. It truly is an amazing place that everyone should have the chance to visit.
I used to go every month or so. I used to grab a captain underpants and go find a quiet spot and read.
That Perry the Platypus t-shirt looking pretty fly
Thats just a platypus *puts hat on* Doofenshmertz : PERRY THE PLATYPUS!!!????
Nice Perry the Platypus shirt
It's the first thing I saw and the only thing I needed to see to be immediately very happy.
I was about to go to the comments section and say that but you stole my thunder :P
+Ryry Studios hahahahhahahahah same
+pedubs comments guess you could have said.... curse you perry the platypus? (im to lazy to spell it correctly if its not. feel free to correct me. im tired)
+guardian films did not even notice :)
He talks about videogames at 50:26
Um...no
Thank you sir ☺
So??
comida china Don’t you mean”Thank you kind sir!”?
You read my mind
Hey man I know you probably won't see this comment but I've been watching for awhile and your videos really help me relax and they've helped me get through a few rough patches so thank you keep on being you
Something tells me he prefers play station over Xbox.
Eye Attacker who doesn’t
The same people that prefer PC. It trumps all consoles hands down ...
And that's his choice.
MassivePineappleRainOfDeath cool story Bob
What makes you think that?
ER, ASMR Batman playing an Arkham game would be an interesting watch.
i think that would be more so a short 20 minute funny sketch but I'd like it
Try to make Batmans voice while whispering, you'll just end up sounding like you're drowning in a barrel.
THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN
Animated ASMR wait
arkham games

it all connects
We need to send this man some more PS4 games.

Absolutely loved this, love seeing Rift's nerdy side. I remember staying the night at a friend's house, and he had a kid brother, probably around five or six at the time. My mate fell asleep, and I was still wide awake, and I went walking around the house, and found a load of the kid's books downstairs, as I believe his parents had read to him downstairs to make him fall asleep and put him to bed (as like most kids, you put 'em in PJ's, and the little bastards suddenly go into overdrive). I sat there and read all the books, and loved it. Something about reconnecting with the kid I used to be, reading quite a few familiar stories was a really pleasant and calming experience.
Tl;dr: You're never too old to read a kid's book.
Also, wee little side note, and this is not meant to sound rude or bitchy or anything at all, but Christine's surname in Phantom is pronounced 'die-ay'. Just trying to save you from any potential faux pas. Don't want Rift looking like a goof, when we know he's a wise sage.
PLEASEEEE do a roleplay of Patrick Bateman from American Psycho
I always wanted a reservation at Dorsia :D
do you like Huey lewis
He should also do Joel from The Last of Us!
Just finished reading all 6 of Ellis' books, so fucking good.
+chaotix4516 amen to that.
With all that you're into, it's really surprising you don't own Pan's Labyrinth. It's kind of got the horror and beautiful fantasy seamlessly blended together. Seems like it would be right up your alley. And I don't think you'd mind the subtitles, as it's in Spanish.
This is an accurate comment.
Most people with English as their first language can't bare to focus on subtitles while playing/watching something.
+GamePhysics that is such a sadly accurate statement.
Immy Kiss I know. :/
***** In case it's a little unclear what they're saying because of background noise or something, you can always read it if you have subtitles on.
The Blade Runner game for PC was an amazing point and click detective adventure. It was very true to the movie, and allowed you to explore the world and try to identify replicants. It had many multiple outcomes based on choices you had to make in the game. I think it came out in the late 90's.
This is such a good combination of relaxing, wholesome, and comfortable.
Er: Gets out Star Wars: "I wasn't really a fan of the first 3..."
Me: you were the chosen one!!
Er: ....phantom menace, attack of the clones, and revenge of the sith. Original trilogy is the best.
Me: a surprise to be sure but a welcome one.
ROTS is the best SW movie
NeonWolfen I have said this before and I will say it again: you can like the prequels, but you can't say with a straight face the ROTS is better than the original trilogy. You may like it more than the originals, but in filmmaking wise it is just untrue.
Every exposition scene is shot and blocked in a bland way, there is even more CGI, the acting still isn't good.
It is miles better than Menace and Clones, but it isn't as good as the original 3.
Honestly I can relate to liking something that is underrated. Chamber of Secrets is my favourite Harry Potter movie, but I can admit that Prisoner of Azkaban is the best, even though Chamber is my personal favourite.
But ROTS is isn't as good as the originals in film language. Watch the Mr Plinkett review of ROTS, specifically the part where he talks about cinematography and visual symbolism. You may not agree with his opinion of the movie, but you can't honestly say that it is BETTER than the originals.
@@s.storumus8620 Godzilla vs. Kong is better than the original King Kong Filmmaking wise
wow i remember watching this so vividly two years ago. time really does fly. thanks for all the content :)
I'm so glad you plan to do a Spirited Away Roleplay and even with my favourite character(if I guessed right and it is no face)! I'm so looking forward to this video oh and have a nice weekend :)
Video games + asmr = :D
video games + ASMR = TheASMRcast

Gaming while listening to ASMR= 💙
I saw Phantom of the Opera last month on stage and it was a truly amazing experience. I'd never been to a play before that and I was blown away by the entire thing.
I enjoy seeing your passions and seeing you teach us about what you love.
i never thought i'd enjoy a guy just talking about games, books and films as much as this
Jurgen Klopp ASMR
When i was young (5years old) i watched spirited away so often and i still love this film!
It isn't a normal film its complete different the other films!
rift, I fuckin love you man! you're honestly the type of person I aspire to be later on in the progression of my life. you show me that even adults like yourself can be nerdy, and adding that to you having the same tastes in music as I do, so I hope you see this message, and I hope it makes you smile, because your videos do every day! :)
I have that same night before Christmas book. It's my all time favorite Christmas story I thought I recognized the spine of the book when it was the full stack of books. The art is gorgeous
You and your family have great taste
"He's a semi-aquatic, egg layin' mammal of action!"
Owl At Home!! I adored it when I was a kid
That's a very good video and and awesome collection! I hope to introduce my sons to Old School videogames one day.
What an adorable shirt....put a smile on my face instantly.
The intro kills me every time. Ephermal rift you are the best honestly. NOTICE ME SENPAI
The Henson creature shop is still alive and well. A lot of the stuff in the new Star Wars movie was creature shop. And they've been talking about a sequel to both Labyrinth and Dark Crystal. I was just watching Dark Crystal last night, considering re-scoring a scene from it for a song writing challenge over the summer.
You are my favorite "ASMR-tist." You are very different from others who make asmr videos. Most make basic and simple role plays for eye exams and ear exams. You make very interesting videos, with very unique characters and plots. I really like your "Deep One Dave" and "Professor Clemmons" videos. Keep up the good work!👍🏼
Neil Druckman and Bruce Staley were the creative leads with Uncharted 4, The Last of Us, and Uncharted 2. Bruce focused on the game play aspects of it while Neil did the story side, although I'm not sure he wrote Uncharted 2, I think that was Amy Henning, not sure.
I would absolutely love it if, when The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild comes out, you made an ASMR gameplay series of it. Please. That game seems perfectly suited for that.
Planet earth is truly one of the most beautiful documentaries ever made. Truly shows the breathtaking and beautiful aspects of our planet.
I loved always when my parents read books with me. I still remember those times. I also enjoyed it, when my parents quit doing it, when my grandma sat down on my bed to read for me. It was always calming and special. And if you read quietly it's something of an ASMR-Session.
But what I think is important: Share the things you love with your children. If you enjoy horror books, try to find a (not-so-much-)horror book suited for children. I was actually thinking about it when you started talking about it... If I knew any horror books for children, and what such a book would look like (what I had to be careful about when attempting to write one).
Children react to emotions, and if you are boored with the book, your children will not like it. Read them something you can enthusiastically enjoy a couple of times.
And man... That must be one of the joys of parenthood people like to talk so much about.
your a good man ER certainly helped me in some of the most scary times of my life keep up the work more stuff like this i would appreciate.
Ho ho ho a roleplay of the last of us *_* :O
what are you, santa?
+Fanfouer damn you got me Der m8
Ipad Graphics x)
Phoenician Sailor just did a role play of Last of Us
Crappy game.
Mother 3 is better
Oh my God Yes you have to get all Panet Earth and Blue Planet on DVD/Blu Ray downloaded whatever you just need those forever,
It is probably among my favourite things the BBC has ever put out and I loved the second set just as much.
an asmr involving a personal visit from the phantom sounds like a reallllly good idea
May the good blood guide your way Uncle E.
Seriously though, the lore of Bloodborne is incredible.
but so is dark souls;-;
Shroud 42 I prefer the tone of Bloodborne, is creepier
+ExKorpio it is certainly creepier, but to me dark souls had more variety. like theres a lot of dark derelict towns that bloodbourne does so well, but theres also a lush green forest and a massive golden city. Also there was a distinct lack of massive fuck off dragons in bloodbourne XD
Shroud 42 lol true, but The Great Ones make up for that
+ExKorpio fair enough
Nietzsche and Captain Underpants in the same pile is a beautiful thing lmao
so happy when I realised the first movie you picked up was Spirited Away! Such a fantastic film!!!
first asmr ad i ever got just before an asmr vid! Thank you algorithm
+Ephemeral Rift you should do a Ghostbusters ASMR, you know when Peter Vankman is interviewing the girl and the guy. The cards thing. I think it would give tons of tingles.
Nice video Rift, good as always!
L
+Y0UNG GOD O
Hey, I was one of the main people on that vid who recommended you watch Spirited Away. Glad you enjoyed it so much, man. Also holy shit, your favorite film of all time is Alien, and my favorite film of all time, is Aliens. Spooky.
Evil Dead 2 and Alien are some of my favorite movies ever made, so cool to see you talk about them!
The first three games i saw was the last of us,uncharted 3 and uncharted 4 and that made me instantly likes subscribed and turned on notifications
YES BLOODBORNE ASMR!!!!!
therussiankid7
Favorite weapon hunter?...
@@brendanrichardson6135 whirligig ftw!
oh man i love those nerdy kind of rift videos! also really liked youre skyrim lets plays. magnificent!
You remind me so much of Nick..AsmrByDesign..i really miss his videos. Im sorry to say that when your videos use to pop up in my subscription list..i never gave them a shot..then i saw this..and i love dvds..and books...and your whisper voice is just so pure...i love it. Ill never deny myself of enjoying your videos again!
Perfect!!! :D
yessss blood borne on ps4 right at the top 😂 I'm obsessed
Been a part of the ASMR community for a long time now and never really got a chance to watch your videos (although I know you've been at it for a while). I watched this and a couple others and, just off the bat, you seem like a hardworking, really chill dude and a great dad, keep it up..lookin' forward to watching more of your videos --
I remember I lot of these books. Took me back. I had one called The Thingamajigs book of manners. It was a pretty cute book
"Sees dark souls" I doubt you kept your composure for that game
all 5 hitchhiker books? Aren't there 6?
I think there's 5 by Adams but 6 overall
The best thing is that I can relate to all 3 topics in this video!!
You are now my new favorite asmr youtuber!! Ah idk maybe tied with massageasmr but damn your videos actually give me asmr unlike 95% of other channels that just are able to do it at rare specific times.
If he cosplays No Face from Spirited Away I will cry tears of joy.
god damn tai lopez in his garage
Horror started with the grimm fairy tales, improved with poe and hit its peak with mr. Lovecraft.
I highly recommend reading cormacs works if you ever get the spare time since your interested in the road (since its been over a year I'm not sure if you've gotten to that one yet). Blood Meridian is my all time favorite.
Good collection of films. Winters bone deserves more attention from the audience.
I'm so glad I watched this! my therapist told me I am highly sensitive! I can't wait to read that book now. thank you!
Nobody's seen the entire video yet but it still amazing cause it's you Uncle E.
dude super mario sunshine should be in that pile lol
or should it
+pedubs comments lmao
Why would he have a random GameCube game in a pile of PlayStation and Wii U games?
+Nathaniel Rimblebottom you get me
+RippStarr what the fuck man, just no
Was waiting for this all day!
I loved the swedish version of Let Me In. Must check out the book.
No fallout ?
Jeff Smith literally what i thought
Tf!?
"return of the jedi could have been better withouth the ewoks"
You just look Logray and Wicket in the eyes and tell them that
😂😭
Awesome video! I must say, I turned this on for the ASMR and decided to watch the whole video instead of going to sleep. Not complaining.....but sleep deprived.
I always feel giddy inside when Rift is talking as his real self and not a character
Me: instantly skims through the pile to find hit and run😕
C'MON Rift where are the sports games?!?!?!No Madden, No NBA2K... Oh well, your still a cool ass dude. Your videos are still awesome. You're definitely one the best ASMR artist out there. You really have talent and use a wide range of subject matter. From your comedy to serious subjects, no matter what, your dialogue is always top notch.
you clearly haven't realized the topic is on nerds
Nerds play sports games too... trust me I know a lot of them. I relate... so I am clear on the topic.
+Phillip Torres (45Bandit) I've never met a basketball player shout "KENOBI" rather than "KOBI"
Johnny Johnson
you got a point...
+Phillip Torres (45Bandit) Nerds are smart and avoid cash ins.
Other than your "let's eat" series, this is one of my favourite series of yours. :D
Dude. Do another Nerd Out. Your best videos ever! You rock!
Watching this in my fallout 4 tshirt
Watching this in my freaking tetris t shirt.
Watching this with no shirt...
+The Matrix Bunnies Animation watching this naked
watching this with no skin
Watching this with no muscle tissue.

Coming from a 7(Teen) year-old, I can agree.
Extremely Moist why not just put 17?
k
Because he said they were great for 7 Year-Olds?
I was making a joke...
k
How can you say 'It wasn't very good' if you didn't even get it?
This mini series was awesome I loved it
Thus Spoke Zarathustra!!! Ah, a wonderful book! Nice collection
wheres shreck
Shrek is drek
i used to call skyrim skrim

You're welcome, individual.
We got the exact same views and taste in games. Excited for those bloodborne role plays
Yeah Skyrim is waaaay too long. I’ve been playing for 20 years now. On my deathbed I’ll still be playing. Damn you mods you add to much!
This is a joke btw
PLAYSTATION!
This gave me Major tingles :)
Nerds and ASMR...perfect combination
Who else stoped the video just to know the titles of his games
The first 2 battlefronts were way better
4 years later and still agreed
You would thoroughly enjoy the novel Wool by the author Hugh Howey. It's a phenomenal post-apocalyptic book that will have you turning pages for hours on end.
The dark crystal. Man that one takes me back lol.
you gotta play until dawn and the evil within if you havent
mike persona' Amazing games
I personally like until dawn, but it doesn't have much replay value. At first, it is exciting and scary, but after the first full play through, it gets boring. The evil within is supposedly good, but I haven't played it. I'm not really planning on playing it soon though.
Chase Reed Funny, I've heard until dawn has alot of replay value, I've personally only beat it once though.
Yurick Hunt the only big replay value it has is getting different ending and making different choices to keep people alive.
Chase Reed Yeah
“Dark souls, im not a fan of this one”
Theres so much i want to say
#1 selling book every year!!! Ding ding ding the Biiibblllee
Spirited Away is probably my favorite film. I know you want to role play as No Face, and please do that!
The Last Of Us is the best game ever
I played the last of us through like over 6 times because it was so fun. You hyped for the last of us part 2?
No.
"we" have a son??? how do you know its mine!?!?
Damn it Gustav why are here
This guy is the goat of asmr
Bloodborne was my GOTY last year and it made me go back and play the Dark Souls games. Absolutely amazing!
