This is an almost 100 year old clip from Los Angeles that’s been AI upscaled, enhanced, and colorized so it doesn’t look like it was filmed through a potato sack. I lived in LA for ten years, and I have to admit: I didn’t recognize any of it. Of course
Hot on the heels of that 1920’s footage of the Big Easy comes this footage of the roaring 20’s in New York City. Now I know what you’re all thinking — The Great Gatsby! And yes, this was the era of Art Deco, jazz, and flappers. But look at that

This is a clip of Nirvana’s January 11th, 1992 performance on SNL that’s been upscaled to 4K with the use of A.I. The episode also featured host Rob Morrow from Northern Exposure (my parents loved that show), and the band performs ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ and ‘Territorial Pissings’ before Grohl

This is some remarkable AI-enhanced and colorized footage of San Francisco captured on April 14th, 1906 — just four days prior to the devastating 7.9 magnitude earthquake that destroyed over 80% of the city. For reference, even Godzilla’s destruction percentage isn’t that high. The journey takes on a trip down
This is some poor quality video footage (it always is, isn’t it?) released by Armenia, Colombia mayor Jose Manuel Rios Morales revealing what he and others believe to be a ghost attack on one of his security guards on duty at the mayor’s office. I tried zooming and enhancing the
This is some breathtaking footage from various locales around the world as filmed in the 1890’s and recently restored and colorized via artificial intelligence. It really is something to see. Timestamps for all the locations visited in the film so you can skip around and pretend you’re a jet-setting time
