Monday ASMR

 For feline fans, after the hectic holiday weekend... Can't remember if I've used this one before, but an old 5-minute cat-scratching video that actually makes for a fine ASMR clip even though it's not even labelled as such:

 Time to slip in another ASMR video. "Angelo" has probably become my favorite within the shoeshine genre, so yet another from him:

OK, for anyone wanting a li'l ASMR to begin the weekend, here's 3+ hours of finger-tapping for your delectation:

Who knew that cockatoos were dogs!:

Friday ASMR

Will end the week with another auditory ASMR offering:

Friday ASMR

Yet another horrible week for the worldwide laughingstock that the USA and its joke leadership has become... maybe a good time to end with some ASMR... once again courtesy of a shoeshiner:

Friday ASMR

Heading into the weekend just another (auditory) ASMR video (this time of finger-tapping)... because God-only-knows how friggin' crazy and anxiety-ridden the next week will be!:

ASMR Tuesday

Just realized I never posted an ASMR video for the month of May, so may as well throw one in now:

ASMR Sunday

For April, and a diversion from everything going on around us, time to insert another example of "fast and aggressive" ASMR from one of its practitioners:

ASMR by the Beach

A new month of crazy politics so who doesn't need a li'l dose of ASMR, before perhaps all Heck erupts.... 
Another long-standing ASMR producer is "ASMR Barber," early on often doing 'shaving' ASMR videos. Here's an example by the beach:



-----------------

side-note and RFI: ASMR is being heavily-studied by researchers to understand the wide variety of stimuli that generate the sensation, and why some folks are susceptible to it (to varying degrees) and others not at all. Anyway, it all makes me wonder a bit about an opposite sensation:  the screeching sound of fingernails down a blackboard or tennis shoes on a playing court is intensely irritating to many people, yet has no effect on others. Does anyone happen to know of research or explanations for these wide individual differences?

The Intersection of Math and ASMR

For variety, I've been sprinkling in ASMR video posts on the blog for awhile and, out of curiosity, decided to google "ASMR +Math," where I found a little more than I expected, including this:
