airy hfjone birdhouse 1987 

i jampacked this one with lots of cryptic symbolism n motifs n all that :D maybe when i feel like it i’ll post a complete analysis but for now ur just gonna have to be matpat i guess!! 🕺

airy is a bird!1!1! take flight little air man!1!1!1!1!

I'm absolutely obsessed with the bits where he's just doing a funny lil dance in front of an eldrich horror.

I love it when people turn a random object show character into an terrifying creature Edit: the likes are y’all serious Edit: Amarillo amarillo plátano

THAT STONE DESIGN GOES HARD WTF

THIS ACTUALLY FRELS LIKE A CARTOON FROM THAT TIME OMGG

the 18 dislikes are from people who dont have birdhouses in their souls

I’m not kidding this animation inspired me to finally make the full sized Airy plush I’ve been putting off for a whole month, thank you for that. He’s my child now and I call him my Plompy.

Airy nightly goes HARD ‼️‼️‼️‼️🦅

OH MY GOD TBIS IS LITETALLY SO FUCKING GOOD. the colors and the pacing and the symbolism have my entire heart mind and soul you’re so talented

ik i already commented but this amv is awesome so here are my fav tiny details -the intro being a refrence to the song itself, which is about those blue bird nightlights -airy frequently being portrayed like a biblically accurate angel/eldritch creature, symbolizing the god like power he has over people on the plane -ALL THE PLANE REFRENCES. like the telephone and the pie and the object plane itself -how the papers he’s holding in that one scene are akin to the notes stone leaves -every clock reading 1:11 (which was mentioned by the creator in a community post but it’s ok i wanna mention it too) -also the color scheme in general is my fav thing ever

this is a genuinely beautful and moving piece of art and it's about an object show character. i love the internet

theories on the cryptic symbols (feel free to recommend ideas!) ill be updating these theories and adding more (read in matpats voice for best experience) 1:01 marigolds , which are also known as the flowers of the dead, birdhouses which are also shown a lot also represent the dead. Marigolds also represent the fragility of life which could also go with 1:24 how airy shatters his fragile head, which the head is the most important part in the body (which how in 1:01 he is also holding the flowers in the spot where he shatters his face later on) 0:14 bees, they represent abundance, focus, and dedication. like how airy could be focused on the show or the contestants on leaving this also contains lots of imagery of birds and wings which represent improvement, freedom and messengers from god 1:32 we have airy coming out of a birdhouse with wings, which could represent his death as previously said, birdhouses represent dead ones and wings/birds represent freedom which airy is freed after dying 1:41 airy creates a light, which lights represent understanding of intellectual thought. in 1:10 the time is shown to be 1:11 which the angel number 111 also means abundance and dedication, similar meaning to the bees the song in the background could be inspired by the poem “Hope is the thing with feathers” by Emily Dickinson. which could add more meaning to this imagery The poem reads: Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all. Sweetest in the Gale is heard And sore must be the storm that could abash the little Bird That kept so many warm. I’ve heard it in the chillest land and on the strangest Sea. Yet never in Extremity, It asked a crumb of me. 1:03 theres the sun, the sun represents divinity and power. which could be airys power over the contestants or something. in 1:28 theres a sun or orb of light in the bird airys eye. Maybe this winged airy is supposed to represent freedom, power, intellectual thoughts, and divinity or something this song is also about a blue canary nightlight. the bird is the one that "watches over you" but in this context, its airy. Every time the song says "he watches over you" it shows airy and the plane. which could mean that airy is constantly watching the contestants, even at night. at 0:01 airy is on the lightswitch and blue, like the canary light. 0:45 right here the bird airy flies over a clock, clocks represent time and morality (observation by @passiaaaaaa) at 1:30 the eyes in the right and left corner briefly display roman numerals, it being I and XI which translates to 1 and 11, basically the angel number 111 being displayed again. The same roman numerals are also at 1:33 in the weirdly long airy (observation by @Ivaan11990) Airy is shown as a bird, shakesphere used birds to represent chaos and destruction and in genesis 1:11 god creates plants, basically how airy is creating all of these things for the contestants

TH THE THE SILLY BILLY HIMMM THIS ANMITAION SO GOOB SJNFNDKEJEGNDJSKEKDJWIID

Looks sigma

The _Brave Little Toaster_ vibes are absolutely _radiating_ off of this one... It's even labelled 1987 like what-

Gotta love the detail of airys wings being similar to the trees in his forest

ITS SO GOOD SEEING SOMEONE REPRESENT THE RELIGIOUS UNDERTONES IN ONE OMFGGGGG

It’s so weird because I feel so connected to him with the wings for hands, the looks like the person I see at night, yes I am aware that “he is only in a show and not real” I’m not saying that I’m saying that he reminds me so much of him.. and I always thought it was him. I’m pretty sure now.. I’m so sure I have seen him before in my room talking to me.. I’m so positive.

Imagine archeologists in 10024 discovered youtube and found this

I can't fully express how much I LOVE this animation, from the art direction and style to the song choice and showing Airy as deity of sorts. It's awesome, wonderful work!!

0:22 this little guy is such a goober

This give a vibe or feeling That I can't describe It feels like a good dream Like a pool grown over with plants Or like lost Media

I just realized that the cake he grabs out of the oven, is the plane, and in the dirt there’s the contestants . I think this COULD mean that their buried and well. Dead.

The fact this actually made a lot of sense terrifies me.

I HAVE SOLVED IT ‼️ So this vid comes from a demo of birdhouse from they might be giants in 1987 And those same ppl made hot dog from mickey mouse clubhouse. YES, THE HOT DOG SONG IN MICKEY MOUSE CLUBHOUSE ‼️‼️‼️ My theory is that...AIRY IS MICKEY MOUSE-

i remember seeimg u say that the weird little airy creatures WERENT airy and here in 1:34 airys little hat thing doesnt rly look like the one he always has and to me it kinda looks like fanon airy, so are the worm creature things fanon airy or,..,,, another thing entirely?

love how it looks cute and kinda mixed with horror

I LOVE YOUR CREATIVITY WHAT!! Your designs and interpretations & stuff are so cool AND WINGED CRYPTID AIRY IS SO COOL!!! IT'S WEIRD & I LOVE IT!!!

Guys I figured out the symbolism Airy really likes chicken wings

I watched this before watching ONE. I watched it now, but my initial reaction was basically- “What” “That’s a creative OC it kinda reminds me of BFDI and the boy and the camera” “W h a t.” “Biblically accurate angel?? What??”

Ok so uh, I put this video on loop, fell asleep, and when I woke up it was still playing. Normally my phone automatically pauses looped videos after some time, but so far, this is the only exception. Airy is spying on me I swear

For knowing a 16,17,18 or 19-year-old making this this is actually printing astounding. This is just pure art. Edit: I don’t know I’m just trying to say this is amazing. I’m just trying to be respectful. Sorry if this is weird.

I HAVEN’T HEARD THIS SONG IN YEARS WHAATT!!!!!!1!1! (I love this too much help)

1:06 i love how airy does that thing that birds do when if you rotate them their head stays in the same place

love how the biblically accurate airy is the fanon design for airy

0:09 i drew this part, is that okay? i really loved this part of the video, and the entire thing. you have talent!

i'm so obsessed with this animation!! your art style is so unique and expressive... the way you animate airy in this is both horrifying and comical (his little dance at 1:06 always gets me haha) and the atmosphere is just impeccable... what a great way to capture his (and the show's) essence!!! so cool!!!!!

the single frame where you can see airy digging his eye out

I might actually put this on a vhs tape to confuse the the future generations

I know that the I and XI overlaying Airy's eyes are meant to be 1 and 11, because of ONE, but it's interesting that it also could be Justice(Or strength) and the Magician, from tarot. The Magician is a lightning rod, connecting the outer world to the inner world, which definitely relates to the world computer stuff that Airy does. Justice, meanwhile, could relate to all the pointless games in ONE, since it represents rules and laws, and when reversed, (since Airy is hanging upside down), it represents the pointless tangle of rules that don't mean anything. Similarly, the reverse Magician refers to unfocused energies without any real direction or aim, just doing things for the sake of doing them.

The man did it, he actually made a little birdhouse in his soul

i come back to this video every few months for some reason

I can’t say how many times I’ve watched this but I’m gonna guess ~14 times at least

I know this is supposed to be cool and cryptic. But Airy just looks so cute lmao

This comment... is trying to translate the cryptic symbolism or something??? I'm not quite good at those... But I'll tryyyy.... Okay?? Sorry for the grammar and the repetitive word usage by the way... My brain kind of rotted the past few months. 0:01 Maybe it's symboling his first death? A car crash? Probably not... But I'd assume the blinking of his light probably symbolises the ambulances and the police cars surrounding him during his death. Which mind you, their lights would typically blink quickly... There's also a siren-like sound in the background?? The outlet is also a synonym to "Exit". Maybe him "Exiting" his world. 0:06 Angel, or bird. Which corellates to new beginnings. The stars in the background probably indicate the many worlds he could possibly go to, or the waiting room. Him taking flight could be him entering his new pocket dimension. 0:09 He watches over you... 0:11 Birdhouses memorialize family members who recently died. 0:17 He is the bee in these "frames" or something... On the first panel, is him first discovering his empty forest pocket dimension. In the second panel, might be him going insane due to the lack of social stimuli in his dimension, growing numb and apathetic. In the third panel, is him taking lives from his original world. In the fourth panel, is him creating the planet for season 1. Why he is a bee? Likely because bees are linked with rejuvenation, divinity, and the mysteries of the natural world. These panels also look somewhat similar to "THOSE" notes. 0:20 Starting from scratch again; Making/Coding the grass on the plain. 0:22 I doubt this means something... 0:27 Him "Dreaming" about competing in ONE. (Since Airy in this video is portrayed as a bird) 0:33 Relating to Airy's computer (Doesn't look like Texty's computer...) 0:37 Something... 0:40 Stone, obviously. Has multiple eyes because... They have more than just a third eye... And also because he knows EVERYTHING. Looks similar to Abstracty, maybe you're trying to relate to something. The phone is probably symbolizing the numbers for each world, and how he knows all of them. Kind of like calling those worlds to see what they are? Similar to the radio in the waiting room. 0:47 I don't know, reminds me of ouroboros... Which depicts infinity, probably relating to a cycle. Probably talking about how Liam got stuck in Airy's dimension, and how he might become the new Airy. 0:51 The grass always points to the sun. Canonically (probably), Airy is the sun. 1:02 Marigolds symbolize the connection between life and death. 1:07 Something's familiar... 1:16 Spawning in all three batches, thinking it's okay. Pies also represent union, love and comfort. But I'm pretty sure you're talking about the lack of it... 1:24 I think it's a bit obvious 1:29 He watches over you... For a few seconds, the eyes say "I" and "XI" which are roman numerals, in other words... 1 and 11... Or 111, Which is the angel number. The angel number has alot of meanings... and I did little to no research. But it's associated with confidence, motivation and independence. I did also notice the two arrows in his eyes... but I don't know what it is. 1:34 Eyes ay "I" and "IX"... or 1 and 9... 19, which is also an angel number, It is a number that is blessed with the energy of hope and finding faith. This is likely talking about the contestants, but mostly Liam and Bryce. The butterfly wings could symbolize transformation and rebirth??? 1:44 Most likely means him dying, and being sent to the waiting room once again. Which leads to one of four things... Having the potential to come back, if he remember his dimension's ID of course... Or by pure luck. Going back to his home world. Entering a new dimension. Or finally walking into the horizon... the after life... Where he was supposed to be. Your style reminds me of Objectified :3 I made this comment before I saw Spectral's comment... A small slice of this theory was from them tho, so credits to him!

CHEESY NEEDS TO SE THIS WHAT

Lore of this character??? I need context, PLEAS?!?!?!? ;-;

I can't stop replaying this I love this animation so much

in case anyone else got lost in the lyrics like i did: Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch He watches over you Make a little birdhouse in your soul Not to put too fine a point on it Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet Make a little birdhouse in your soul I have a secret to tell Of when you're all by yourself It's a time when even you Get up and leave your nothing to dwell I don't want to talk about that And no one listens to that But for the one who does And she's the one you worry about Don't you say anything If you have anything to do with it Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch He watches over you Make a little birdhouse in your soul Not to put too fine a point on it Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet Make a little birdhouse in your soul I'd like to cover the earth With a fresh-baked yummy dessert People couldn't live in it But I think it's worth the money and hurt 'Cause I couldn't tolerate All the empty places in the world Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch He watches over you Make a little birdhouse in your soul Not to put too fine a point on it Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet Make a little birdhouse in your soul Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Bro this animation is so cute no wonder why it keeps on recommending to me on my TV it’s so adorable and so creepy that’s why I like about RU-vid

HOLY SHJIT STONE IS UR STYLE IS SO GOSH DARN MAJESTIC!!

Wow the art really good and scrumptious here! and airy is truly the silly fellow

I love it, it is the most stunning video I have seen in my entire life

"Look an Airy on the outlet by the lightswitch ¡He watches over you!"

One of the most beatiful things I've ever seen in the internet. Could be my favorite animation ever, on par with The Greatest Living Show.

airy

i saw this in my recommended and honest to god was so confused for a second bc i was like "wait is that calposa from twitters art style?!?!"

Fun fact: neil cicierega made a cover of this song!

BABE WAKE UP CALPOSA POSTED 💯💯💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️‼️🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥

ur style is suuuuper cool! i love the colors sm

0:21 look at airys face that gives off a crazy but cute psycho

RU-vid IS STILL RECOMMENDING THIS TO ME I CANT STOP

I need wood I'm going to make a birdhouse in my soul

airy looks like a yugioh card at 0:47 - 0:49 lol kinda looks like kuriboh

To think YOUR 16 AND MADE THIIS AHHHHH

My condolences to those who hadn't watched ONE or didn't finish

This is terrifying and wholesome ate the same time

this seems like the type of animation that im really tempted to make an incredibly long comment where i just ramble about how good it is

Omg I love your stone design

1:06 look the silli boi go yippeee

1:10 - 1:19 i LOVE this section of the video its so creative i liked seeing the hfjone contestants in the cake [if u can call it that] idk why i liked this part specifically like this whole video is great

OH MY GOODNESS HOW DID YOU-- IT LOOKS INSANE IM FREAKING OUT

This song reminds me of those old Bible videos they show u in Bible school P.S hehe airy go brrrrrr

This is probably not even important/ a small thing, but the clock on the oven and the Roman numeral clock have some similarities. Roman Numerals are like I, II, III, IV, etc. the hands on the clock point to I:II while the oven reads 1:11 But yeah that’s what I noticed

The last frame is so haunting. I love it.

0:27 THE ADSJLSAKDJFASDF HE'S ADORABLE

This is so genuinely beautiful I CANNOT STOP REWATCHING THIS

Î litteraly cant stop watching this IM INLOVE WITH THE CREATIVITY, ARSTYLE, ANIMATION, LITTERALY EVERYTHKNG IN THISSSS this os litteraly so fcuckign awesome i cant stop YUO MADE AIRY INTI A PIECE OF ART🙏🙏🙏 i need this animation injected in my veins

dial-a-song tmbg and hjfone?? i'm not complaining it's just an interesting combo

Blue canary? More like "lookin AIRY" >:) (seriously thats all i hear now help)

Omg I’m such a nerd over this as someone who loves cryptic symbolism

no idea any context for this, i came here from a comment left on the TMBG video, but this kinda owns??? i like it a lot

1:47 I imagine the troll face edited into this. If someone does this, they better call it “airy hfjone trollhouse”

airy is now confirmed a bird

0:01 ok so first here we see a glass replica of airy, dimming. This could be a symbol of running out of energy. Burnout, or close to one’s end. 0:06 here we see him flying into the stars could this be a reference to the show? Or a reference of an angel/ soul dying. 0:09 here we see him looking at a world, this could mean he’s watching backpack and tomato. 0:12 here fallowed by a lyric (make a birdhouse in your soul) could mean he’s desperately trying to find something to fill that empty space. 0:14 here we soo a statue[?] or his “true form” followed by his regular one. This could mean he’s starting to lose touch of reality. And struggling to find out if this is real or not. 0:17 “bee in your bonnet” this means he could be planning something and overjoyed. And if you look in the bees eyes. You see a humans eyes. That could mean false innocence. and in the corner you see a flower. You will see that again. 0:18 here he turns squares into wings, the Colors are green. *just like him* could this mean he could be preparing? For something? 0:22 Here we see him dancing infront of something. Him. It’s almost as if he’s trying to distract us from what’s happening. 0:25 here we have tomato looking at the sky. With airy watching him. He’s Also watching backpack. 0:35 “I don’t want to talk about that.” “No one’s ever listens to that. Could this mean he’s tried telling people of what’s going to happen? 0:41 here we see someone who he must of been talking to. 0:46 here we see him flying out a clock. another hint is time is short and he’s losing it all. 0:51 here we have someone, staring right back at him. 0:56 here he gives a birdhouse to his state. As if they are taking everything from him 0:59 look at his arms. Doesn’t it look like the clock you just saw? 1:01 now we see his face covered in yellow flowers. This can symbolize death. That means he could be barely holding on. 1:04 we see him filling in a circle. This looks like his eyes. That are now stained with yellow. 1:06 now he’s dancing infront of himself, he’s losing it 1:10 he’s baking, and there’s 1:11 on his oven, fucking terrifying how that’s where the clock as been positioned. 1:15 he pulls out a pie with everyone body on it. And let’s look at the top row. Bottle, backpack, and teacup. Those were the ones who saw him in the sky. 1:20 here we see his body on a block. But it’s broken, 1:25 here he breaks himself to fit the block. *he’s letting everything fall into place* Here we see him broken 1:27 1:29 here we see eyes, and a clock in his only eye. He’s becoming what we saw in the beginning. 1:30 here we see “IXI” isn’t that what we have been seeing all this time? 1:32 he fits out a birdhouse. Is he leaving is soul behind? 1:33 we see “IXI” again. And airy has a dissapointed face, being reminded of his short time left. 1:36 now we see him with bee wings. And hands coming toward him. As we saw in the beginning there’s a bee flying away from hands. 1:40 now we see a yellow soul. Maybe symboling desth again? 1:43 his time has run out. 1:45 now *they* can take control.

I was shocked the moment I heard Birdhouse In Your Soul demo by TMBG, didn't think I'd hear it anywhere else considering how unknown it is, fantastic choice to put that track in this animation

THIS IS SO GOOD AND I LOVE IT BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I LOVE IT

if I had a nickel for the amount of bizarre and oddly specific yet lovely and amazing RU-vid videos related to Birdhouse in your soul... I would have 2 nickels. which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice

I’ve fallen in love with this animation-

The value is in the eye of the beholder.....................................................

Scary video with the 1990 phrase

0:40 I LOVE STONES DESIGN OMG

OH DANG THIS WAS MADE IN IBIS PAINT?!?!? OWH WOWOW THATS SO IMPRESSIVE!!!

Watch this at 3am 😅

That song is just so catchy and amazing.

I cant stop watching this its so good 😭

I feel bad for your gallery because how much art is in the video

It’s perfect to depict him as a bird since his name is airy :)
