What if you CAN’T BURP?!

Some people can’t burp… at all. It’s called Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction, and RCD makes life seriously uncomfortable — both physically and socially. There’s an easy, increasingly popular medical fix that unlocks the power of the belch, and it’s actually changing lives. Popular Science: #medical #sciencefacts #science #scienceandtechnology

    A reminder this isn’t medical advice!

    Ok, the stock video of the hairy beer guzzler in an orange turtleneck needs to be a meme. 😂

    This proves that society is stupid for rendering burping as disgusting and impolite.

Nearly 50 years ago, the Polavision camera blended Polaroid’s revolutionary instant film with on-demand home video – and the result was a landmark advance in analog technology that would become a mystery of science and a winding international journey into vintage tech.

Because now, generations after Edwin Land bet his half-century legacy of innovation and the company he founded on the success of the Polavision, I need to figure out how to get the thing to work… and only one man in the world could help me.

I traveled to Vienna, Austria to meet Florian “Doc” Kaps – the man behind ‘The Impossible Project’ that saved Polaroid from the dustbin of history. With his guidance and his private store of old Polaroid video tapes, perhaps I would be able to record a modern YouTube video with my vintage Polavision camera.

Through it all, Doc immersed me into his world of analog technology and the philosophy behind his mission to re-integrate analog into our daily lives. We cut lacquer records, we felt the fires of an analog restaurant, and we spent too much time trying to resurrect a relic of the past – because technology, vintage and modern, is all about people.
