= In my ten-year stint as a music assistant in the Dutch Reformed church from 2006 to 2016- I still cherish- and hold dear- many memories- ONE OF WHICH are the singing of the the Dutch Genevan Psalms- You sing scripture out of the bible- all the psalms are put to music- and in some cases, the music is put to the psalms, so the odd time there isn't a time signature. In 2016 as a hobby project I'd downloaded a number of numbers sung by the Dutch Choirs accompanied with organ, piano and orchestra along with an odd organ solo. SO- for those of you church-musically inclined- respectfully- I'm tagging you in this video as I thought of you. TURN IT UP LOUD AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD SOUND SYSTEM! The Original audio track in this video was duplicated to two other tracks for a total of 6-track 'Stereo' with a bit of Reverb and a lot of EQ.

I'd made this DVD compilation back in 2016 as a hobby project for a few people in the Duncan Christian Reformed Church and also for my love for the Genevan P...

= Digitally Upscaled / Converted 4o 4K Resolution, 60 fps. Stereo audio duplicated to two additional tracks. THIS VIDEO- I HAVE FINALLY UPLOADED- and been looking for- for a LONG, LONG TIME. In 2012- a cast in London, UK got together to do a court re-enactment of what it would have been like for the crew of the SS Californian (the only ship near the Titanic) to be grilled in the court room for their negligence in NOT RESPONDING to the sinking of the Titanic when they could SEE the titanic- yet instead waited and did nothing while 1,500 lost their lives. SO FIRST THINGS FIRST- it is only proper to watch this in order of the previous one- find time to go and watch my upload of the '1953, Titanic' in 4K resolution. THEN you will gain an understanding of how THOSE events fit into THIS one.

Digitally Upscaled to 4K Resolution (3840 x 2160) @ 60 frames per second. To be able to understand THIS video- IT IS TRULY NECESSARY to watch the 1953 Video ...

= Digitally Enhanced Video, converted to 60 fps / Audio Turned into Stereo from Mono. IT's ONE OF THE MOST WELL-DONE RE-ENACTMENTS- from the Passengers boarding the ship to the Inquiry from the Admiralty to the Captain. 'THE LUSITANIA', a luxury passenger oceanliner was built in 1906 and was torpedoed by a German Submarine in 1915. The ship sank in all of 18 minutes. Unbeknownst to the passengers of the time- IT WAS VERY COMMON for luxury ships to carry concealed explosives for transport. This of course, BACKFIRED on the ship when it was torpedoed, causing a second explosion and allowing it to sink several times quicker than usual. Almost 1200 lives were lost at sea. Audio/Video has been improved in this one.

The Same video- Re-done, Better audio/Video.ANOTHER of my favorites- AND IN ALL FRANKNESS- ANOTHER EXCELLENT RE-ENACTMENT of an event which happened over 100...

= WELL- A requested video FINALLY DONE- The 1953 VERSION of 'Titanic'. The original video was 1080p, 24 frames per second. Digitally upscaled / enhanced to 4K Resolution, 60 frames per second. HECK of a job to get the framerate synced with audio/video consistently but done. IF YOU'RE NOT IN CANADA- USE A VPN TO VIEW THIS VIDEO! Blocked in many countries except Canada and a couple others.

If you CAN'T VIEW THE VIDEO, USE A VPN TO WATCH IT! Blocked in many countries except Canada. THIS TOOK A LONG BLOODY TIME to Upscale the video / Frame-rate a...

= TO THE TUNE OF "WINTER WONDERLAND"---
"Happily Addicted to the Web". Terry Sirup Seth Godbey Caleb Zylstra Rob McIntyre
Doorbell rings, I'm not list'nin',
From my mouth, drool is glist'nin',
I'm happy--although
My boss let me go--
Happily addicted to the Web.

All night long, I sit clicking,
Unaware time is ticking,
There's a beard on my cheek,
Same clothes for a week,
Happily addicted to the Web.

Friends come by; they shake me, saying, "Yo, man!
Don't you know that life keeps moving on"
With a listless shrug, I mutter, "No, man;
I just discovered letterman-dot-com!"

I don't phone, don't send faxes,
Don't go out, don't pay taxes,
Who cares if some day
They drag me away?
I'm happily addicted to the Web!

"THE LUITSANIA- TERROR AT SEA." ANOTHER VIDEO UPLOADED FOR YOUR PLEASURE- Upscaled from a low resolution. A Re-enactment of an event which happened over 100 years ago. The Lusitania, a British Luxury Passenger Liner, carrying a full load of people- was torpedoed by a German U-Boat, U-20. on May 7th, 1915. It sunk in 18 minutes and took the lives of 1,200 of the 2000 that were onboard. FAR QUICKER than the Titanic. Many lives were lost in the sinking. Originally built in 1906, the Lusitania was specifically built to be able to be converted into a warship if the need arose. Such as it was, the ship sunk 9 years after it was built. This was in a time where the German Navy would sunk military or civilian Passenger ships regardless of which and whom.

ANOTHER of my favorites- AND IN ALL FRANKNESS- ANOTHER EXCELLENT RE-ENACTMENT of an event which happened over 100 years ago. The Lusitania, a British Luxury ...

= If the film is in fair condition- it CAN be colorized. The better the film condition, the better the outcome. Some film in this video Excerpt had seen better days. In the midst of finalizing his family's silent 8mm films, just for novelty's sake-- Here's a two-minute clip of Norm Sowden's films colorized from the original Black & white. VIEW FULL SCREEN.

An Excerpt of Standard 8mm Film to Color. Not always the best due to the original film not being in the best of condition in many places.
