Biography

Dan Olson is a YouTuber who formerly worked at Channel Awesome from August 2014 to September 2015. He is the man behind the Folding Ideas video series - an analysis show attempting to establish things from a contextual and cultural viewpoint rather than from a fan-based or artform-based one. Dan makes videos about popular movies, software, and sites in pop culture, the art of storytelling, and what cinema says to its audience. His style is relatively analytical among other internet reviewers, mostly observing works within their cultural context rather than from a fan's point of view. Dan formerly used 'Foldy,' a puppet talking box, to serve as the host of the show, but has since opted for his own appearance in later videos.
