A tiny computer dreams of becoming a cowboy in this adorable animation

This is One Good Thing, a weekly column where we tell you about one of the few nice things that happened this week.

Do androids dream of electric sheep? Who knows — but tiny computers certainly dream of bitmap horses!

At least this computer does. In an animation titled "a computer dreams of being a cowboy," your heart will take the hardest hit to the feels from an inanimate object since The Little Toaster.

This short animation is the work of illustrator, musician, and storyboard artist Louie Zong. In it, the digital dream of a computer sings his longing for another life of riding horses and yeehaw-ing, set to the tune of "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver.

It even changes one of the lyrics "West Virginia, mountain mama," to "I've seen a bitmap, but not for real" just to drive home his little heart's yearning. Ouch.

Zong used a virtual singer software to create the robotic vocals, which he's previously done for an animation about a similarly forlorn yet hopeful computer, "hello world."

We suggest you check out his other work if you're into bright, chiptune-y melodies and animations that are filled with heartwarming characters on incredible journeys.

In the meantime, we'll be here trying to find a way to get this little rootin-tootin computer to the country roads. 01011001 01100101 01100101 01101000 01100001 01110111 0001010 (Yeehaw.)
