I never knew their names were Stanley & Stella! I have them running right now on a Pioneer demo disc from a laserdisc player my late husband & I bought about a year or so before dvd's hit & blew them out of the water. I used to play it on a repeat loop as I unwound after working 3-11 pm shift. Now I can put this on my iPod- it should look awesome on my iMac! Finding this is quite a memory-flogger...

I used to see this all the time while waiting for Reboot to start!

I must say that the music I know for this video was much better. The song from James Reynolds made this much more lovely.

Oh my God, the nostalgia!! I can't take it!!!

Amazing. The levels of retro-goodness here could cause an explosion.

Color balance is off here, but I can only comment on this upload.
I have this animation on 2 Laserdiscs, Pioneer Laser Optics II (1989) and The Mind's Eye (1990). The latter has a different soundtrack, but I prefer the original. This and Pixar's "Luxo Jr." broke the bars for animation. Both very cute, both very emotional. Only thing I could gripe about this animation is how can the (non-penguin) birds swim?

@TheSweaterKid Bird meets fish, bird falls in love with fish, bird is willing to go through anything to be with said fish. It's beautiful, just love it.

This video still fascinates me. It is interesting on so many levels: It's made by a company called Symbolics, and it Is symbolic, of the moment when computer graphics broke the boundary between an experimental device from the engineering world to a powerful artistic device that could interact with a viewers emotions. And the symbolic 'breakthrough' moment when computer animation took that step is this self same animation, from 1986.

In the end, all that birds dive into the water, don't they? That seems to me they do.
I find that this music doesn't tell the story as well in comparison to the original (or other one).
