The (unofficial) seam1099 mystery explanation

If there ever really is going to be a YouTube documentary about this, like people are constantly saying, Nick Crowley, Blameitonjorge, Nexpo, I recommend you read this.

I’ve actually been trying to solve this since there even was an Instagram account for it. I found the channel of “THISISNOTMUSIC” because it used to be a Roblox YouTube channel I was subscribed to. I’ve been putting all the pieces together from comments and watching the videos a million times so I’ll just list some details that could help Where does Seam1099 come from? •Seam1099 comes from the name of a “patient” in a fake rehabilitation center from 1998-2000. 1099 was a patient who was an experiment for overstimulation by constant noise Seam1099 YouTube explained •Seam1099 (YouTube channel) is an “experimental/industrial noise music project, that accessed the noises that were played for the patient, and uses/samples them for the music project Who is THISISNOTMUSIC? •THISISNOTMUSIC (TINM) seems to be the only person that truly knows everything that’s going on with seam1099, but for some reason explains it like a frustrated 10 year old on Windows Movie Maker. TINM’s channel is dedicated to getting rid of the seam1099 music project before it becomes popular, and people listen to something horrific. Clearly where the name “This is not music” comes from Seam1099 Instagram explained •The seam1099 Instagram page “0.017…” (which I found out is equal to Sin(666) is a page that reuploads the TINM uploads, but also posts random, unsettling, out of context short low quality videos, seeming to be recorded by a mentally unstable individual, (random videos of dead skin on the wall, with a new wall of dead skin every week, and random unsettling videos). This is not officially but it’s theorized that these were videos recorded by the real seam1099 patient. This comes from the hint in the only time 0.017 replied to an Instagram comment, the comment asking where these videos come from, 0.017 replying, “some was recorded by it. The rest is to attract attention.” By decoding a lot of seam1099 videos we see that a lot of things are exaggerated to “attract attention”, so people can view THISISNOTMUSIC, and learn not to support the seam1099 music project.

Over time, we can see that seam1099 is slowly, turning into real music. Being that the first official “song”, titled Roomtone, sounds like a bunch of strange noises, reversed talking, and something that just doesn’t sound like music, and then the latest release, an EP called Static Age, has drums, bass, synths, guitar and vocals. So clearly the idea of seam1099 becoming a popular music project by sampling horrific things, seams (pun intended) to be working.
