# "SCOTOMAVILLE 02.08 - Strategy" and What It Teaches Asxer Owners About Blind Spots

On 2021-12-12, Daniel Comp published "SCOTOMAVILLE 02.08 - Strategy" 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

In the Pacific Northwest heat, Daniel uses board-game strategy and mosquitoes to talk about mobility and careful thought, and admits "seeking the truth, and speaking the truth can be difficult." He notes how YouTube recommendations shape a creator's income. It is truth-seeking under pressure.

> You see, seeking the truth, and speaking the truth can be difficult.

From the YouTube description: 02.08 STRATEGY Living full-time in a 30' Airstream Globetrotter has great advantages on the challenge of 'know thyself'. ([full description on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lpmb617x81U))

## The asxer angle

An asxer gives an owner the same practice in a new form. Because it answers from what the owner has actually written and recorded, the owner can ask it what they have said before and notice what they keep missing. Re-watching yourself is still the method; the asxer just makes the archive easy to search.

In the books: Trilogy 02.08, Prime 443.
