I’ve visited a glass shop before but I never knew about the rubbery plateau and I always wondered how they could keep working the glass outside the furnace. Now I know! Also, seeing the internal stresses using the polarizer was awesome. Great job Destin!

I love how his criticism of his students was always something along the lines of: "We gotta practice that a little more." This guy has an incredible teaching style
See also: Apprentices. There's a slightly different relationship between a "master" (ie. a very skilled professional) and an apprentice, once which is different than teacher and student although it obviously shares some features, too. And, unless I miss my guess, it's not every skilled professional who would consider taking on more than one or two apprentices at the same time, but if that is possible it should tend to have a harmonic effect in terms of how learning happens. In other words, the peer group for 5 people (master and apprentices included) is likely to lead to everyone getting smarter at a faster rate than a group as small as 2 or 3.

The way Cal teaches and learns not just by understanding his and his team's failures, but also by pushing those failures to their limits, all while never being condescending or judgmental, is simply incredible. What a wonderful environment his shop must be if you're truly in love with this craft
tbf, glass blowers are ALL a bunch of stoners, and tend to have really clear headspaces and awareness. Dustin is too much of a jesus square to pick up on that.
Cuz they’re stoners
Yeah lol when I read your comment, particularly the part about condescending, I immediately thought of how it compares to Gordon Ramsay's teaching environment...xD lmao two totally opposite methods, yet both effective!

Destin, we need more Cal. His mindset on failure is phenomenal and incredibly applicable to anyone regardless of career. Thank you!
I love the concept of, “if I’m going to fail, fail all the way.” Reminds me of the Mythbusters, where their motto was “failure is always an option.” We learn so much from failing. We shouldn’t be afraid to fail, that’s where true knowledge comes from.
It was this channel that helped me decide to quit my job and go back to school in my mid 30s. Best decision I ever made. Graduated 5 years ago and that degree has helped me so much. Just needed this motivation
Thank you for taking the time to share this, it is wonderful to read and I hope it goes onto inspire others
How did you live without a job?
@@TJ-W the ever important question
Well done mate, congratulations on your achievement and best wishes for your future endeavours...
What did you study?
I really enjoyed Cal's perspective on failure. The use of failure as way to experiment and learn even though the piece isn't what he wanted it to be. It's a really smart idea.
The school of hard knocks is always the best teacher.
Engineering meets art. Or is it art meeting engineering?
I always try to learn from my mistakes, but this is a completely different and brilliant way of looking at it.
This is true in engineering, too. Cal's perspective is the difference between people who are "paper experts" and people that you ask something and they casually give you the expert answer. A lot of people walk away from failures to start over ASAP. But good companies give their employees room to fail and explore those failures. So often, there are very important lessons in failures. This is why you see a lot of software teams hiring "chaos engineers" to purposely come break things in the infrastructure. "What happens when we hack this? What happens if our backup is shut down? What if ... what if ... what if ... ?" You can explore those questions "for free" when you are post-failure, but too many companies see this as a waste of time. They are thinking only about the deadline and getting the project complete with this "new setback," but knowledge lost to exploring "what went wrong" can prove to be much, much more valuable in the long run.
In a case like this, why would you want to quit? You can't do anything else but watch and see what happens, makes total sense to me from this aspect but that is unrealistic in every case scenario in life. Dumb actually!
That last bit about failure Cal was talking about is pretty much spot on for any kind of learned skill. I love painting, but any kind of new technique I learn (blending, shading, medium etc) generally starts with failure and experimentation 🤙
This was all so beautiful. The experiment itself, how you presented glasswork, Cal's failure-success philosophy... Thanks, man, this was great.
Really love the way cal runs his shop. Very focused and serious, making sure all the apprentices understand the safety aspects. But at the same time he was never rude, never belittling. He's the kind of teacher that you know knows his stuff, but you're not scared of him, you're scared to disappoint him.
The way Cal speaks about the fine balance of success and failure is an amazing headspace.
Reminds me of an old quote I heard “The line of demarcation between failure and success is so thin we often do not know where one ends and the other begins”
@@housecapital2199 That is a quote I have not heard before but it is one worth remembering.
@@moondoggie1987 Its from Napoleon Hill
@@housecapital2199 Thank you for letting me know.
3:09 I love these little handwritten safety notes. The fish saying wear safety glasses is great 😂 and "Do not pick up glass from the floor! - it's NOT safe." 😅 perfect for ne who sometimes just forgets that there would be a super heated oven right in front of me. 😂
Yay! I need those notes :D Every time I pick up something hot in workshop XD
Also, "Do not sit on the floor"
I could probably use that sign about picking up glass at my work. I have a bad habit of picking up broken glasses bare-handed instead of grabbing a broom.
Safety Fish sez. Love it.
We often went to Bornholm (Denmark) on vacation when I was a kid (almost 30 years ago 😭) and there were quite a few open glass workshops where I just loved watching the artisans do their thing. I just remembered how relaxing and beautiful this art is to look at.
Where in Bornholm?
I love how calm Cal is while also giving important feedback. Must be nice to learn under his guidance.

When I finish a Smarter Every Day video, I feel like a different person, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. This channel is one of the last bastions of wholesome, educational, and transformative content on KZhead. These videos remind me that there's much good in the world. Thank you very much for the work you do Destin.

@@FIGHTTHECABLE there are indeed many other incredible channels, yes, i agree 100%.
@@FIGHTTHECABLE yeah well im not saying that new great channels stopped popping up. but if you think about the last couple of years though, esp with shorts and how recent creators would optimize for the algorithm or use shock and psychological tricks to garner attention, you get a bleaker picture of the platform as a whole. A different archetype of content gets rewarded more, and it becomes harder to find channels like this one.

19:34 NICE! These guys just got exponentially better with each attempt! _Very_ interesting video Destin!
My biology teacher in college was incredible, she always told us: "there is no such thing as a failed experiment, keep recording everything, because that data is still valuable and you can still learn from it". That stuck with me even when I was working at an auto parts store. "Go ahead try your risky idea, the part is already ruined, let's see what happens!"
Cal's speech at the end about learning from failure is my main takeaway from this video. Glass is fragile, like so many endeavors. Failure is a learning experience. If you go in with this mindset, there's no way to lose.
In a case like this, why would you want to quit? You can't do anything else but watch and see what happens, makes total sense to me from this aspect but that is unrealistic in every case scenario in life. Dumb actually!
Once I wreck a watercolor painting, I just start playing. Might as well! Otherwise it's a complete waste of time and materials.
This video should be shown on day number one for grade school…loved the inspiration…failure is still learning…😊
I love the way you summarized it, thanks for commenting
There's winning... And there's learning.
That final result looks incredible
Giant sperm in a glass. Imagine that blowin up a fallopian tube! 😂
Yes it's stunning. Found out funny that aubergine wasn't a known word... It's the UK name for an egg plant (not sure where else says this)
Truly amazing piece. A moment frozen in time. Also seeing so many passionate people is so encouraging. Thank you for making this.
As an artist, I really appreciate the way you show the artist process and the intricacies that go into the creation of these pieces. The art you see is the last and sometimes least important part of the puzzle, its all that failure and struggle and teamwork that makes the piece worth it. You capture that feeling and I am so happy you show that
A machine can make glass
Cal's expectation of perfection and learning through failure is really commendable. My jaw literally dropped when you showed how they make the drinking glass. Just incredible.
I love Destin's infectious enthusiasm and ability to explain complex topics in a clear and engaging way. I admire how Destin guides his interactions with kindness, empathy, and eagerness to learn. We can all stand to learn something from people like Destin who put aside personal differences and instead choose to focus on human connection. There's something truly special about this channel.
He's a true rare gem, and worthy of the term role model. This world needs more Destins.
These are words Destin himself would use if he came across his channel from another dimension.
This video was so worth the time spent watching it. It's inspiring to me as an artist, but also just as a person. Thank you.
The way that the whole team of people work together throughout the whole process is truly incredible, and you can see that each of them is so nervous at the beginning but over time they get more comfortable and fluid with everything and it's so cool to watch. Not to mention how incredible the finished pieces are, and even the semi-finished pieces and the mess-ups along the way! They are all masters in their field and still learning and so excited about every bit of it, and thank you Destin for showing that to us. Keep making cool videos like this one!
6:10 they put it in the. WHAT??!?!
YES
I am a glass artist myself and I did know about the "rubbery plateau" I just didn't realise I knew. Also I love the idea of continuing to work on something after it has "failed". Not only does this mean you can find out about other ways it can fail, as the artist says, it must also be really freeing. You can try something mad and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Who knows where that could take you? Thank you, your team and all those involved so much for this.
Great observation. Even when you know your art there’s always more to learn, these days is just as hopping on the internet to do so
And who knows what might happen with that finished "failure". Failure might be turned into success in the end, even if it doesn't match your original vision.
I had a university professor several years ago whose standard response to students saying "I have a problem" was "There are no problems, only opportunities." Yes, sometimes that reply was delivered in a seriously sarcastic manner, but the words remained absolutely true. Every situation and every outcome that is not the one desired is an opportunity to learn, change what needs to change, and continue on to improve. Thank you, Dr. Crenshaw, for sharing your acerbic wit and lifetime of wisdom with this ever non-traditional Ag student.
I really enjoyed this video and as a glass artist, I love this idea of "failing in all the ways I can" in a project! I'm going to start trying that in all the ways I can in the future!
Cal is an amazing artisan. His patience, knowledge, and positivity are extraordinary.
I agree. Eric, Jill and the rest who work with him are extremely good team mates. I'm impressed with their ability to all give each other negative feedback in a constructive way. We could all learn from their example.
2:45 It's soo fun to see all the doodles and writings on the heater/Furnace!
Big thanks to Cal and his team. This was just amazing!
The way Cal talks about failure at the end is inspiring. Well done Destin and the Hot Glass team.
problem solving through intentional failure. I use it all the time in machine operation. I was given prototype production machinery and tasked with making it run optimally and profitably. I used intentional failure to understand its limits. if you know what causes something to fail, you can now understand how to make it work. I forced failure on both extremes to find its optimal operation range. its a great trouble shooting tool.

High quality photos of those glass pieces through various types of lenses and scopes would make an amazing album. The whole thing looks almost organic, and also like something out in space. Incredible and beautiful.
Love everything about this! You and Cal are great minds and I loved watching the two come together to make something beautiful. You too made me smarter, thank you
The quality of the content you put on here is the reason i don't pay for TV at home anymore. This is simply mind blowing.
I really love the dynamic of Cal's shop. A master with a workshop of apprentices, it's like the great artists you read about.
I love how genuinely excited you are while explaining both the science and artistry behind this work. ❤
Awesome video man. It was so cool to see Cal and his team working together. I’m always being exposed to and learning about new things when I watch your videos. This is why I love your channel so much. Keep up the good work Destin!
That "pftt" making the bubble grow in the glass BLEW my mind, straight up wizardry! Cal's explanation of the balance of failure was profoundly beautiful! Absolutely 10/10 video!
I absolutely love the respect you’ve given to the artists in this video. Bridging the gap between engineering and artistry is a wonderful thing 🎉
Destin, your enthusiasm for learning new things is intoxicating! If I could learn half the things you have forgotten I would be smarter every day.
Wow. Destin, I love your attitude and curiosity. Thank you so much for this vid. What Cal says regarding failure, resonates so strongly with me. Great work Destin.
And THANK YOU soooooo much for including Cal's thoughts on the freedom to learn that failure represents. I struggled in the past with the concept of "failing fast" as an excuse not to do one's homework ahead of time. His comments open up that process to learning so much more, compared to the "one question, one right answer" trend I see so often in formal education today. Fantastic episode, Destin.
I never understood how much teamwork could be involved with glass blowing! Really cool to see them work together! So much talent!
ok
I love Cal's thoughts on failure. I've always had a similar outlook, maybe not to his extent, but still retaining the idea that failure is a REALLY good teacher. When I was teaching people in the trim carpentry field i always told the ppl i was teaching, "you are going to mess up, no doubt about it. Don't stress it, instead use it as a tool to figure out what not to do." I've learned way, waaaaay more by my mistakes than my successes.
I find it wonderful to see such brilliant flow of ideas on this splendid video. Thank you.
5:47 That type of glass is used today for Ruby Red neon tubing with various formulations. The ruby red color is from selenium in the form of cadmium selenide and another agent zinc sulfide its the heating that develops the color and if it is overheated can permanently turn clear. Some formulations of ruby red darken when heated so as every sharp bend of the tubing is darker as it was heated more than a sweeping bend such as in a "O". In the past ruby red neon tubing was made with particles of gold and was a beautiful blood red color - but very difficult to bend as it took a higher heat to work it. I've been making neon for over 40 years.
I've always been amazed at glass work, but having the artists explain everything as they go is a whole new level of awe.
I agree, the artists have a deep meaningful connection with how the material works. It's fascinating.
Evaluating art is always a difficult task...if not impossible!! I love the way you never stop "exploring"!!!
This video with Cal was amazing. Didn’t think glass would catch my attention, but dang I enjoyed it start to finish. Love the final product!
The respect you show for people with different types of intelligence from you is really heart-warming. Your commitment to learning as much as you can from anywhere you can is definitely a standard to be sought after by more people!
The respect Destin shows as a really smart guy to the different types of intelligence is inspiring, from his father, to farmers, to artists.
i love seeing a you have such an enthusiasm for everything
watching a live performance from glas blowers is one of the strongest memories I have from a class trip in 3rd grade.
"an Artist who understands the material properties of glass far more than any engineer I know" this is such a profound statement in my mind. Artists are so often undervalued, but clearly a man as amazing as Destin can see the true extent of how artists help uplift society.
Dr. Temple Grandin understand this greatly and also the truth of all area. Engineers to technician/artist to office personnel (Organizers, Financial, CEO type people) Very interesting information I have learned by this and believe that all schools need to work with this as a way to teach. Give all people the opportunity to learn the best way possible for them and not just teach one way.
but at the same time, the artist sees that Destin build a tool for a purpose that fits the process - so let's go. And if it does not work: just adapt the tool the process and the process to the tool - so let's go.
You expect engineers to know everything about materials?
I loved the talk at the end about intuition!
For a very long time artists, artisans and craftsman where the only engineers and scientists. From pretty much the earliest use of fire and tools, our ancestors knew nothing of thermodynamics and gasses or how the material properties of stone worked. They learned how to use the fire for more than warmth and cooking, they learned how to chip stone all with intuition and how to pass those skills on before any kind of complex math or even writing. From there it was metallurgy, glass making and everything else centuries before the first engineers and scientists as we know them came about.
Destin, I know what you mean when you say that the final piece made you feel things. I wasn't expecting to get emotional watching a 30 min video about glass work, but my heart feels more full after watching this than it felt before, and that's something special. Thank you.
Smarter Every Day videos often make me feel warm, because they show the beauty of engineering, but now that it's coupled with the beauty of art, it's on another level.
I love how excited you are by seeing the artisans work!! As someone who is an artist (not glassblowing, but bookbinding) it’s so cool seeing people get excited about the processes! I can only imagine how much fun these guys were having while explaining everything to you :D
Super cool! Good job Cal and crew! Nice job Dustin for sharing this talent that Cal and crew have.
Your depiction of the different forms of glass (PR drop, molten glass, not yet cooled glass container) on the viscosity/temperature curve was key to turning a simple number like temperature into a graphic of the interplay between the inherent physical properties of these various "states" of glass that must be in balance to achieve this goal. Great job not only on exploring this "What if..." path but also on illustrating it so elegantly.
Smarter Every Day videos put my brain into the rubbery plateau of learning. Thanks for all you do, Destin.
Really special!! Thanks Destin for finding and bringing to us enlightening content!!
What Cal said about failure is exactly why nba coaches send in the younger players in garbagge time. It doesn't matter by how much you loose. 10 or 20 points does not make a difference. But using the remaining time can give you an advantage in expierence the next game. 👏🏻

Cool video, as always. Fun fact from near the beginning at about 5:53 aubergine is the french word for eggplant, might be why Destin hadn't heard that word before, it is also English for eggplant, but most Americans (and possibly other English speakers) just say eggplant.

This is amazing! Your videos keeps me enlightened.
11:45 - working with hot molten glass in your shorts and T short. Now that's confidence !
It's the same with molten metal. This stuff is that hot, that it will not be able to touch your bare skin due to the Leidenfrost-Effect. If molten glass / metal hits your cloths they will catch on fire and burn you badly. Ideally you would work butt naked just with gloves and protection googles on. But KZhead would not allow that. And I may think his apprentices would also have something to say about that.

This stuff is beautiful... Both the outcome and the process. My favorite part is hearing Cal describe how and why he uses the failures to learn, near the end of the video. I also like seeing Destin's approach to meeting new people. Not only with Cal, but also with Matt from Smarter Every Day. He has fostered new friendships in a unique way and we are all better for it. As someone about Destin's age, without a lot of deep friendships, I think back to my own life and ways that I could perhaps have invested more in others to HAVE those friendships now, but don't... And I'm trying to figure out the best way to cultivate those skills and qualities in my four kids.
26:59 What Cal said there made so much sense and taught me so much... I just cant explain it.... He is a genius and truely an Artist. How i wish I could learn so much more from him.. and not just about glass... about Life!!

I remember the first Prince Rupert's Drop videos you made and I look forward to many more in the future :) You make the Internet a better place.
That lesson about intentionally committing to moments of failure as opportunities of learning is _deeply_ important. Doing that actually disconnects the experience of failure from being tied to your Amygdala's fear & survival response. This is preventing you from treating failure as a threat and instead embracing it as a way for your Prefrontal Cortex to gain a deeper understanding of the thing you're dealing with. It's one of the most important ways to deal with unknown unknowns and mastering something that you are deeply interested in, so hearing him talk so specifically about that process from a practical standpoint in an episode where you emphasize his intuitive sense of that over just the explicit statistical knowledge was REALLY fantastic!
It's amazing to see the power of molten glass and how it reacts with Prince Rupert's Drop. The slow-motion footage really captures the intricate details of the experiment and shows the incredible amount of force and energy involved. This video is a great example of how science can be both educational and entertaining. Keep up the great work!
