In typical interview sessions, he asked the same question to a variety of pedestrians in a busy public area to create a vox populi report. In May[3] and July[4] 2024, Orain said that the channel would be "archived", and on his personal channel, he explained that he felt burned out from his work and wants to focus on other projects in the future. The 1420 channel continues publishing interviews in the same style, made by Orain's collaborators Artyom and Maxim.
Career
[edit]The name "1420" comes from Moscow Public School No. 1420, which is where Orain went to high school.[5]
In an interview with The Jerusalem Post, Orain shared that after asking many individuals the same question, the answers tend to repeat themselves. A common pattern regarding Russian politics is that some people support government decisions, some people oppose, and some people directly say that they do not wish to respond, often saying they are "apolitical".[6]
In an interview with Der Standard, Orain shared that his approach to interviews is to ask simple open questions and to let people answer. "We [the pollers] do not insult anyone, including the government", Orain said.[7]
In 2022 Orain was commissioned by the French-German public TV Channel arte, on the occasion of the "TRACKS EAST" episode on "Soviet Heritage", to convey a street survey on the topic: "Do people want the Soviet era back? Is that Putin's goal?"[8]
In early 2023, the 1420 YouTube channel had about 300,000 viewers. Of those, 40% were from North America, and about 5% were from Russia.[7] Orain established the channel in 2019 at which time he was asking people about LGBT rights in Russia and political opposition leader Alexei Navalny.[1] The channel became much more popular when he started interviewing people after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[5]
One discovery in media conflict that Orain made is a difference in Russian and international views on the Bucha massacre.[9] Russian interviewees routinely denied the massacre, calling it a hoax and propaganda, while people outside Russia typically accept that the massacre occurred.[9]
A video was then posted in March 2024 and the channel was renamed to "Archives of 1420 by Daniil Orain".[10] In May 2024, it was suggested that he had somehow traveled to Georgia, and new content was posted on a channel simply called "Daniil Orain".
Between May 2024 and August 2024, the channel was renamed back to "1420 by Danil Orain",[11] and was taken over by Orain's friend, Artyom.[12][13] In a video meant as his last one, released on July 27, 2024, titled Where I've been, Orain states, "it's not interesting to me anymore [...] and [the] opinions of Russian people do not matter. [...] They will be sent to the front lines regardless." The comments under the video revealed that many viewers suspected Orain had received pressure from the Russian government (i.e. the FSB) to discontinue his work.[13]
On September 21, 2024, Orain started a livestream titled "how is the channel back on track?", where he answered questions from viewers regarding the channel and his own life. In it, it is revealed that Orain attempted to go to Moldova, but was denied entry because of his Russian passport. Orain also confirmed that he and Artyom are still in Russia. He noticably dodged any questions related to the FSB, instead explaining a story about the dangers of terror—that is, terror being weaponized against the very terrorists who used it themselves.[a][12][14] Artyom notes that he has a contingency plan ready for them both in case their lives are threatened.[12]
