Cyriak is awesome, and the video above is a good example of his skill in animating with stills and video as well as his …er…style. The following is absolutely not a made up quote, “Horrors even I could not fully comprehend or conceived of. I give it an in incomprehensible number of tendril-tentacles up.”- Cathulu, date not known yet.

I hope he voices a character on Smiling Friends at some pint, as David Firth , a contemporary of Cyriak, played Shrimp on that show, and Cyriak doesn’t do bad when in-front of a camera.

I didn’t notice this is an old one, so it felt like he got lazier. I know him for from later complicated, fractal, somewhat incomprehensible explosions of sound and movement

I raised my kids on Cyriak’s videos. “You’ve got a poo in your pants-pants-pants” is a children’s classic.
