A giant eye under the water keeps Minibricks' workbench company

Eighteen days old and past 360,000 views, a diorama about the algorithm watching us does the work while nothing new goes up.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

The Algorithm Is Watching | I Built a Giant Eye Diorama

"The Algorithm Is Watching | I Built a Giant Eye Diorama" is the video still drawing the most viewers on Minibricks, the channel built on small, realistic scenes made by hand. The idea is turned into something you can hold: a diver sinking toward a huge human eye hidden beneath the water. According to the description, the eye was modeled from scratch, 3D printed in resin, then painted and set into the underwater scene. Eighteen days on, it has passed 360,000 views.

Nothing new went up this week, and the channel ran well below its usual pace, at roughly a quarter of an ordinary day's views. The newest thing in the mix is a short from eight days ago, "Painting a Monster That Hides Under a Lily Pad," which shows the hand painting of a creature for an underwater pond diorama. Since the eye was underwater too, maybe the bench is staying wet for a while?

Further back, a month-old build still turns up: a block of foam carved into the ancient island from Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, with the ruined bridge, the temple cut into the rocks, the ship and the fight on the bridge all packed into one scene. It has passed 350,000 views too.

Among the craft and art channels near its size, the slower week is shared. Sam Builds and CrAZy . aRT are also under their usual pace, while Nakshi Kantha World runs a little ahead of its norm. Minibricks sits in the middle of the group by subscribers, with a lily-pad monster half painted.
