"Turbo Encabulator" the Original

  • This is the first time Turbo Encabulator was recorded with picture. I shot this in the late 70's at Regan Studios in Detroit on 16mm film. The narrator and writer is Bud Haggert. He was the top voice-over talent on technical films. He wrote the script because he rarely understood the technical copy he was asked to read and felt he shouldn't be alone. We had just finished a production for GMC Trucks and Bud asked since this was the perfect setting could we film his Turbo Encabulator script. He was using an audio prompter referred to as "the ear". He was actually the pioneer of the ear. He was to deliver a live speech without a prompter. After struggling in his hotel room trying to commit to memory he went to plan B. He recorded it to a large Wollensak reel to reel recorder and placed it in the bottom of the podium. With a wired earplug he used it for the speech and the "ear" was invented. Today every on-camera spokesperson uses a variation of Bud's innovation. Dave Rondot (me) was the director and John Choate was the DP on this production. The first laugh at the end is mine. My hat's off to Bud a true talent.

    Fun fact: While we still call them "encabulators" today, modern encabulation machines actually operate through a series of hypermodal undulative quantum matricies, technically making them aptoregressive chirality de-unencabulators. Most people will never notice the difference, of course, as any locambulatory feedback is re-routed through the primary polycyclic encaptolography shaft, effectively eliminating nearly all percieved relative phase eddies. Truly ingenious.

    • @TopComments58

      Correct, although currently turbo encanbulators do not operate via undulative quantum matrices of the hypermodal sort, they instead operate on polyhedrocatbonate nanoquantum combobulater plates constructed of tungsten bicarbonate

      Oh come on.. The locambulatory feedback does not need to be re-routed through the primary polycyclic encaptolography shaft if you encrinulate the near-eptomic nesma-conducers in line with the respameters and trescopic capacitor modulators. What's more is the uchulating empirotators do not trigulate at all of you simply route the secondary oblistulatomators through the tyrno-chambers in the first place!

      @@b.elzebub9252 This is very useful information. However, once the near-eptomic nesma-conducers have been encrinulated would it not then be necessary to recalibrate the triple threaded p-type flange at each condensor nodule in order to maintain proper cambratic phasing of the lunar waneshaft and centrivectorial position of each individual marzel vane? Otherwise the locambulatory feedback would indeed need to be re-routed to prevent any perceived relative phase eddies!

      At first, it seems like the guy might be talking about something real.
      But as soon as he says "Magneto reluctance and capacive deractance" i started laughing like crazy.
      My specialty was in electrical systems; there is a concept known as lead and lag in AC systems, and capacitors are also a thing. But...mageneto reluctance....that's not a thing. Capacitive deractance...that's not a thing.
      But at the same time...everything said is somewhat reminiscent of real world things.
      "Relative motion of conductors and fluxes" is ACTUALLY how electricity is produced. I don't feel like finding all the other examples, but you get the idea.
      So there is a level of authenticity on top of absolute nonsense, so it's funny.

      +thedungeondelver Actually, that is not correct according to my professor of Theoretical Physics in a Semi-Quantum World. He says, "The amount of benzonated hydrofluorone that is required to contaminate the entire shim actuator is more than what the Encabulator can create using its hydrocoptic marzel vanes. It would need at least 23 of them. It can be reduced to 15 by incorporating a quasi-permeable membrane infused with a squalline type-3 metalloid."

Listen, he didn't say "eliminated" he said "effectively prevented," and if you look at historical stats for encabulator usage at the time, it backs this up. In terms of fumbles per mega-rotations, the rate has dropped continuously ever since the introduction of the new-model waneshaft fittings. It's not their fault that the eudaibaric and paraagatonic tech industries increasingly require incredibly fast and not just forescent but even quaramblic skor motion far beyond the long-term safe endomatic capabilities of most earlier, less costly encabulators. THAT'S why we keep seeing so many side-fumbling related marzel-vane decouplings and similar accidents. It's NOT because of some conspiracy to pretend side-fumbling was pefectly fixed. Dumbasses.

    For a number of years now, work has been proceeding in order to bring perfection to the crudely conceived idea of a transmission that would not only supply inverse reactive current for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of automatically synchronizing cardinal grammeters. Such an instrument is the turbo-encabulator. Now basically the only new principle involved is that instead of power being generated by the relative motion of conductors and fluxes, it's produced by the modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive diractance. The original machine had a base plate of pre-famulated amulite surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fam. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots of the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a non-reversible tremie pipe to the differential girdle spring on the "up" end of the grammeters. The turbo-encabulator has now reached a high level of development, and it’s being successfully used in the operation of novertrunnions. Moreover, whenever a forescent skor motion is required, it may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation dingle arm, to reduce sinusoidal repleneration. It's not cheap, but I'm sure the government will buy it.

I'd like to add that any magneto output under 14 quarvoids is immediately detract-able under the inverse stealth springs, this would link side-fumbling to a reactive logarithmic withholding of the belly-famultor and the end pins in the leaf-engurmulon. Thus causing the dingle arm to limp-shaft and the output to flim- flap. Basically the overpolarization is prevented by the seperate windings of the foscatulan wired in series with an under-bremulation of the fifth and seventh marzal vanes (not just the seventh) The phase pin firing time has to be bypassed by under-grammelling the coil windings in the squim-meter and over-bearing the noids. In a case like this anything under a reading of 16 parvuels will loosen the dingle arm and create more side-fumbling, and nobody wants that!

      That's almost always the result of a bad connection to, or flaw in, the cardinal gram-meter. I recommend you check your encabulator for excessive sinusoidal recogitation events, which you can usually diagnose from excessive churring and post-mature marzel-vane deployment. If you see any of that, a simple gram-reset and de-argoning of the connector heads should solve everything. If it doesn't, your gram-meter's spuckered and probably needs to be tossed.

      you need to trim your linear wave function glarklefaust into a sinusoidal bead oscillation using a paperclip and a roll of duct tape to hold the grammetrometric collimator in place.

    • @nutbastard
      @nutbastard Před rokem +1

      So just as a bit of advice, you have to remember stuff like this in chunks. The folks who memorize pi to a thousand digits break it up into smaller bits, and the same thing goes for actors memorizing lines, and musicians memorizing compositions. Just get the first 15 seconds down. Then the next 15. Then recite them one after the other. Your brain will store these in different "folders". You open one folder, then move on to the next.
      Trying to hold it all as one chunk is possible, but only for very few people. But anyone can do it with the right technique.

      I've heard from several sources that if you add an image of a complex equation to a scientific paper, you automatically have a much higher chance to get published. That is no matter if the equation even makes mathematical sense or even is relevant to the subject at all. The mere visible complexity makes it look more true than papers without meaningless equations.
      And having read books like Nuking The Moon. It doesn't surprise me that most whacky ideas get funded more or less solely because noone bothered to question it.
