I like how in the 15 plus years this man has been doing this, I've literally graduated high school, earned a college degree, started and failed to write dozens of books, and am now shoving pallets around a warehouse at almost 30 years old. It warms my heart to know that the art I enjoyed as a dumb kid still lives on to this day.
I’m with you there Ding; graduated hs, college, struggled career wise and just hit 30 this year, and I keep coming back to Cyriak’s wild genius with same amount of excitement every time.
This video is proof that unlike many other surreal animation channels, a significant amount of cyriak animation effort is basically weird for the sake of weird. And we love him for it.
All the pieces are physical and made by cyriak, including the Lego boards with the gears to make the music and to make the character move, as they were all recorded against a black background. All the other pieces like the screen, the pointer, etc, were also made physically, but then the whole scene (animated cyriak + pointer + screen + camera movements and everything else really) was composited using a program, so a mix of both really.
@@sageeden7274 "now animate him giving birth," he whispered to himself quietly, then reaching towards his legos and cut out pictures to create his next artwork.
If you enjoy the old Doom games Cyriak actually made a 30 map level pack that stuffed with his weirdly insane creativity. Blew my mind what he did with that 30 year old game.
Feels like Cyriak is actually a very normal level headed bloke who just loved surreal type stuff. He's very aware of how weird his material is unlike actual weirdos who think what they do is fine.
*level-headed, *surreal-type. A "level headed bloke" without a hyphen means a bloke who is level and has a head. "Surreal type stuff" without a hyphen means stuff about a type that is also surreal stuff.
Cyriak is one of the most creative animator I’ve seen. I love how the music was made with actual legos. I’m not that surprised he’s an exceptional lego builder. As most of his animations are using pieces of phone/video to make something entirely new. When the paper Cyriak started walking it put a smile on my face. The way it moved and the facial expressions where really amusing to me. Amazing art!
@NotRickRollOfficial 👇 🅥 the video was good ngl. Oh btw, to the people who hate spam bots: don't bully me for liking the video bc that vid isn't made by the bot
I've watched the video multiple times. I've seen the pieces being made. I saw the gifs, and still, my brain cannot process how all of this was made with just legos, cardboard, and paper cutouts. Incredible work, Cyriak.
SUPRISE! I am the funniest YTer evah!!!! Just kidding, it was no surprise. Everybody knew already. HAHAHHAHA!!!! That was an amazing joke (it was real talk though). WAWAWAWAWA!!!! Good afternoon, dear remy
@@AxxLAfriku bruh, you've been doing this for years!!! I don't even think you're a bot. Please, I'm concerned for your well being. Please stop doing RUclips and get a different life. You're gonna look back on this decision and regret it
Not sure what's more scarym the fact that his computer crashed from one Cyriak animation too many. The fact that he was able to improvise using paper, cardboard and legos. The fact that it's still trippy as hell. Or the fact that he's well aware of the reactions his audience gives that his Cardboard Computer animation station has a "WTF" setting.
I would make a joke but I'm just amazed at how creative Cyriak is with making an animation out of legos and paper. Also the "WTF" option is just too relatable LOL
And thus the wheel-spider was born, along with the spider-wheel it crawls over, the giant wheel-spider it's part of, and the giant spider-wheel they all exist on; which would be fine, except when it inevitably gets even weirder.
At this point we all just expect the unexpected from Cyriak, but, this, I didn't see coming, who knew he could make primitive instruments with legos? And movement mechanisms for his characters, out of lego? Boy this guy is talented
Honestly his animations seems to follow the lego design philosphy to a T, pieces connected that make something bigger and that you can mix and match to make whatever the hell sounds exactly like both Lego and Cyriak's work
I've been through three abusive relationships, highschool, burned out of college, HAD A DECADE LONG EXPERIENCE OF FAILED CAREERS, and just started what might just be the carreer path for me... and yet this man continues to find new and creative ways to blow my mind with his art. Bravo!
It's been several years since I watched Cyriak's Dali-esque animations and here I am again. His creativity continues to astound me. The legos were unexpected and I loved his 'outside-the-box' animation in this one.

Everyone is talking about the lego and I'm just clapping over him getting the rubber band to bounce off the computer screen and land in the cup. How many takes did that take? Amazing job though Cyriak. Love it and your stuff.
@@cheezymcsqueezy5465 Considering he released a video showing how to edit yourself throwing a pen into a cup, he probably did the same trick to edit this. Either way it's awesome though!
I'm glad to see the person that scarred me when I was little still making videos but I'm kind of little disappointed there's no weird mutating alien animals with spider legs and giant eyeballs
I remember when I used to make those little Lego machines in a club in primary school- seeing Cryiak use them is almost like he's breaking the fourth wall. But he was definitely already real. How bizarre.
I was literally just talking about cyriak to my friend about a week back... can't believe he's still kicking around after all these years... I was there from 2011 onwards lol

Done before you even opened the program.
technology is amazing
My brain can't comprehend if this is a digital animation or physical animation or both!
Cyriak is on another level creativity!
There could be some stop motion involved
I think both
his Twitter (pinned comment) shows that it's a lot physical
All the pieces are physical and made by cyriak, including the Lego boards with the gears to make the music and to make the character move, as they were all recorded against a black background.
