Check out the new Collative Merchandise Shop I can now be supported on Patreon at this link MOST RECENT CONTENT IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - Due to the increasing over-saturation of Youtube with poor quality content and excessive advertising, combined with the general decline of Youtube's service (not informing users of new uploads to subscribed channels, hiding dislikes on videos, shadowbanning etc) I'm now making many of my videos unlisted on that platform (primarily the videos the algorithm doesn't promote at all, despite high ratios of likes and decent watch duration). This means those videos (dozens of hours worth) will not be searchable on Youtube and instead will have to be accessed by their links on this website. I'm also intending to make some of my new videos unlisted from the outset, being that YT continues to inform as little as 5% of my subscribers when I post a new video. If you want to have full access to all of my free content and be notified of all new uploads there are a few ways you can do this. 1) Sign up to the Rob Ager page on Twitter 2) Sign up to the Collative Learning page on Facebook 3) Sign up (whether paid or unpaid) to my Patreon page, and the most reliable method 4) Bookmark this site you're now visiting and check for new updates at least once a week.
