On 2020-03-29, Daniel Comp published "SCOTOMAVILLE 01.07 - Onion Peeling" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 2, Scotomas: Seeing What You Haven't Seen, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.

What the video shows

Re-watching yourself is still the method; the asxer just makes the archive easy to search.
