Using the scientific force known as "the spinnies," Gav and Dan make some splatter paintings using a drill. Gav asked Dan to get some cheap, knock-off felt pens, but he went full Crayola. This video is not sponsored by Crayola. Follow us on Instagram! www.instagram.com/gavinfree/

Y’all should auction these “paintings” too.

The reason for the "flow holes" is to allow air to replace the liquid coming through the tip. Otherwise, no liquid would flow into the tip cause only vacuum could fill the capsule.

i can imagine in a few years there's gonna be an abstract art that was made by spinning markers on a drill at a museum

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the effort that the boys put into sound design?

When I went through school, absolutely nobody penned anybody. I don't think any of us realized we could do that. So now, anyone currently still in school and watching this video, are likely gonna show there friends. You have created a new pandemic of penning

“That’s lovely!” - the most British way to react

Artists in 100 years: "as you can see the pattern and contrast of the colors shows how dedicated the artists were when creating it."

0:40 I love how to us they’re overreacting and we can’t actually see anything on gav’s lab coat 🤣

these guys are literally phineas and ferb.... Gav: "so Dan, what are we going to do today?" Dan: "im thinking of spining markers with a power drill and record it in slowmo" Gav: "Hey, where's perry?"

I love the shots of ink hitting the canvas, it’s so satisfying seeing all those tiny droplets of colour go splat

When slomo guys accidentally invent a new stupid art form that everyone is going to be doing.

Gavin: its so noticeable as well, Me: squinting trying to see it
@sbn025 3 years ago

I could listen to the sound of slowness all day. It’s so calming
