Your smile is always warm and infectious, Laura, but it reached pandemic euphoria when the fitting of your spacesuit was completed!
It is difficult for me to comprehend why this is so powerful. I cried watching get fitted in the space suit. I feel the need to explain to others why it is so moving, but I can't find the words. It is frustrating when I am unable to express why something makes me emotional. I am grateful to be moved by the art, it is exciting and awesome. I am a fan of your's, and Tom's work and principles. Laura thank you for sharing this experience.
❤️❤️❤️
Sachs views the Apollo program and his exhibit as a form of sympathetic magic but at different scales, budgets and audience size. He hopes visitors will realize the Apollo program is just a magic trick and to see it in the broader context of media mind control and manipulation. Most of it went over most people's heads, but his exhibit got a few friends of mine who saw it to think hard about wether they've been believing NASA's magic tricks.
BeLIEve ... The End!
5:44 this must be one of the best feelings in the world. working with the person that you most admire in life, and him standing in front of you writing your name tag directly on you
The joy in your face is magic, Laura!
WOW! Commander Kampf I missed you here in NYC. Had I known about this I would have signed up for the Tom Sachs Test. Great way to explain Conceptual Art, thank you for making this vid. 😀 - Eric.
Fellow weartester here, congrats Laura and safe travels on your journey into space!
How Exciting! Congrats Comander Kampf!
So wonderful to see their dedication 🥰
6:54 Epic moment, Tom quotes Laura 🤩
Yeah, I loved that!
@@laurakampf I was so thrilled watching this 😊
You and Tom Sachs together, making art on my birthday... No way I'll miss it! The way you presented Tom's work was so sensible and respectful, it really moved me. Laura Kampf, you are the real thing.
May the Force be with you.To infinity and beyond.
Sympathetic magic in conceptual art! That’s so cool!!
Like many others in the comments, I was moved while watching this. The space suit fitting gave me chills. Lot's of times, music gives me chills, so having a physical/emotional response to art is a familiar sensation. I enjoy it every time.
Your smile told the whole story!!!!
Looks like the opportunity of a lifetime, getting to work with one of your heroes. Best of luck on the mission! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome. Good luck with the mission commander
It must have been an unforgettable experience. Very beautiful
Truely!
That's amazing! Only thing missing from the suit is your own national flag
Such an honor, congratulations!
Amazing! You were born to be Art-stronaut 😃
Exelent Laura, now we going to the space and beyond...............
WOW! von Tom Sachs zum Commander geschlagen zu werden ist ein echter Ritterschlag...
Tom Sachs ist/war sowas wie der Kreative ziehvater von Casey und Van Neistat.
Abo isda!
Pure joy! 🥰
Laura Kampf, Space Commander. I‘m looking forward to the franchise. 🚀
I absolutely love this!! You go, Laura!!!!!
Laura! Oh my gosh! My mind is blown. I am so happy for you! I have been a fan of Tom’s since the early 2000s. I have been a polymathleate my entire life. When I found Tom, I was like, yes! This guy gets it. When I found you on CZcams I thought the same. When I found out the two of you had a bit of a mutual admiration society I thought, “That makes sense”. But this? WOW! I just watched my favorite artist gird with spacesuit and dub with a Sharpie my favorite maker an Astronaut and Commander! My head is about to explode! I bet Adam Savage will be dancing around his workshop when he finds out too! Congratulations Commander, it could not have happened to a more deserving person. Go Laura! Woo-Hoo!
Laura, I think if I wasn’t so afraid of success, I’d be just like you. It’s weird, when I watch your videos, you look so happy it makes me cry. You’re the best!
Congratulations Commander Kampf!
I will definitely be there for the mission.
I'm excited to hear the news!
Wow! this is an evolved path! I’m in!🦌💌❤️🙏
I love how you were knighted with a Sharpie after putting your name on the suit tag.
This video brings so much excitement! The best space programme ever!
That is the most wholesome video ever!! Thank you so much
This is fascinatingly wonderful and wonderfully fascinating!
I guess Simone Giertz now will be very jealous :-) after having absolved her own astronaut training #SendSimoneToSpace
Laura, the world would be a much better place with more people like you in it. You are truly an inspiration. And always keep that smile. Thank you so much.
cool to see you passionate about other people's work, as you are of your own!
Love this LK so interesting and peaceful thanks for sharing xx
This is amazing - CONGRATS, Laura!!!
I’m inspired by what both you
Very beautiful.
Wow, what an amazing project and opportunity!
I just watched this again... and I have to comment again. Your face, Laura - your FACE. That smile. Through this process you were transformed into a little girl, with all of a little girl's innocence, joy, and wonder. And by sharing with us, for nine minutes we ALL became little boys and girls. Such a gift during these times, such a redirecting of the zeitgeist.
I’m inspired by what both you and Tom do. Amazing experience getting to be a part of Tom’s Space Program!
Laura, you are such an amazing person: a great artist and handcrafter and also a very sympathetic and beatiful woman. You have a big fan here in Brazil, me!!
1: Your the reason I even know who Tom is so I thank you for that! 2: Seeing how important this is to you just makes me want to say congrats & well done!
Thank you!
Wow! Just wow!…..🐝❤️🤗
Incredible. Congratulations and enjoy being Commander Kampf…!! 🙌🙌🙌
So, I am now following two Commanders... Kampf and Scraps!
This a good, interesting expansion of your artistic endeavors. Bravo!
Scraps says hi!
@@simonegiertz Hello back! Your reply made my day!😀
Wow, what an incredible opportunity. Sounds like a very interesting project and collaboration
WOW brilliant this is what I love about ART it has no boundaries and the possibilities are endless .
Laura, you deserve everything cool that happens to you. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. Happy Sunday! :D
Love the Sachs / Kampf collaborations and sharing of values! Great content!
I love his space gun series using scraps materials
Okay, i'm crying. So proud of you, of your work and of your art. And it makes total sense that you are the next commander.
I love that you shared this!
😮 So cool. Congratulations!
Hi Laura! I find myself so deeply proud of you!
Amazing!! So happy for you Laura 👊🏽
What an amazing opportunity, congratulations! I’m excited to learn more about this as you document your journey
Sehr stark gemacht der Raumanzug ✌
You smile so much in this video. You must have enjoyed this a lot. Great video 👍🏼
This video made me pause my evening binge for a couple of minutes. It makes me think about me, my current life and my life goals. I feel very connected and very disconnected at the same time. This have to be the effects of sympathetic magic...
Brilliant, can't wait until April for Laura. As always thanks for making learning fun and making beautiful art
Wow Laura, a great commander and mage your are most definitively! It was amazing to see how well refined the suit build is with accessible materials to work with too!
wow, i mean you mentioned before that you are such a fan of Toms' but you really get a sense that this is emotionally different for you than other projects
I love this so much. Everything about it felt like a homage to the Apollo space program - and made me feel a little emotional. I think it was the love, the attention to detail and the ingenuity - and most of all the way it captured the beauty and feeling of it all.
Thank you for sharing
Oh my heart!
i love everything about this
Congratulations, not only did you become a famous and influential maker on the internet, you conquered the hearts of many kid in the "Sendung mit der Maus" and now you are traveling to an asteroid! I just love watching all you're doing, as you are bringing art, good spirit and creativity to your audience.
Wow was ein toller und inspirierender Start in 2022! Danke Laura für die tollen Videos und Geschichten 😊
Never has a commission in Tom Sachs' Space Program been more richly deserved than this - I'm so, so happy for you, Laura!
Wow Laura this I didn't expect 😳, but knowing how much you love the art of upcycling I shouldn't be surprised and above all it's just great to see you enjoying what you love in another country with someone else who shares your passions!!! As always Laura 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
Ich kann es kaum erwarten :D
This is going to be epic!!
What a dream!
Soooo mega! Ich freue mich riesig für dich!! 😍
This is so good. This is so GOOD.
Awesome documentary film. So cool you get to participate. Tom Sachs is such an inspiration. Best wishes on a successful mission! Mahalo for sharing! : )
YASSSS! I went to see the exhibit last year and i cant wait to go back to see you command it!
Very cool and I hope I can make it to Hamburg in April if things get better in Germany. Greetz from Berlin.
OMG, those shoes though! I mean seriously, the shoes …. Sympathetic magic the shit out of me a pair of those shoes, “really”!
I‘m so happppyyy for you 😊😊watching this video every day (okok maybe not every day, but min. 5 times making me always smiling seeing you smiling ;) … Would be wonderful if you could tell your thought’s Melanie Raabe and share it for us on your both podcast … and of course we need a „Commander“ Hoodie after you finished your mission;)
Looking forward for my next trip to Hamburg
The signing and knighting with the Sharpie gave me the biggest smile 🥲I can't think of a better ambassador for humanity 🙂
This is so cool! 😃
Awesome 10fold!
Very cool opportunity. Glad you enjoyed it. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.
Dang! I always wanted to go to Vesta! Congratulation on your selection to the space program. God Speed and thanks for the great video.
Awesome! 🛸
What an honor. Looked like a lot of fun and hope you get to do more work :)
I was impressed before, now I’m like wow Commander Kampf. Your video was amazing
I wonder what Adam is thinking right now? You look great in that suit, by the way👍
Happy Sunday🌞👋🏾👨🚀🚀👍🏾
Wow Laura - this must bei a dream come true! I have been at the Opening at Deichtorhallen for many hours, and it was truly magical. I have never experienced art that way. Wish i had the nerve to talk to you ther - big fan. All the best for your mission :)
Yes.
Большой при большой тебе удачи в новом году.
This is so cool. Congratulations Commander Kampf. Wish I could go - we have a huge work project that week (I'm so bummed).
very very cool
You completely distabilized me with this video (possibly because I just woke up). I was expecting you to make something and there you are Commander Kampf boldly going where no maker has gone before… 😄
Thanks for the pleasant surprise this morning Laura. Be safe out there and keep in touch with us at ground control. 😉
I was waiting for a new episode to drop and did not recognize it by the thumbnail. Thought it was Adam Savage. Either way this is soooo cool 😎 You sound serious and composed like a commander should be. Great pick by Tomas on your natural talents 👍
