{"id":"animutation","name":"Animutation","summary":"Animutation is a 2001 Flash animation genre pioneered by Neil Cicierega, built on chaotic collages of pop culture images paired with foreign-language music and fake English subtitles.","tags":[],"howToUse":["Choose a song, preferably in a foreign language. Japanese pop songs are traditional, but Dutch, Italian, or any non-English language works.","Listen to the song and write down English words that sound vaguely like the original lyrics (soramimi). The more absurd and unrelated to the actual meaning, the better.","In Flash (or a modern equivalent), assemble a collage of cropped celebrity photos, cartoon characters, product logos, and random images.","Animate these elements moving, spinning, and appearing in rapid succession, timed loosely to the music. Crude animation is part of the aesthetic.","Add the fake English lyrics as subtitles or sing-along text.","Hide Easter eggs: one-frame messages, secret clickable elements, and inside jokes referencing other animutations."],"imageCount":2,"nsfw":false,"images":[{"url":"https://fcdtoybbbn2ccxbp.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/images/animutation/animutation-surreal-composite-faces.webp","caption":"Chaotic pop culture visual absurdism.","width":800,"height":450,"nsfw":false},{"url":"https://fcdtoybbbn2ccxbp.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/images/animutation/2026-08-23_1787517532203.webp","caption":"Animutation","width":954,"height":905,"nsfw":false}],"historyUrl":"https://fcdtoybbbn2ccxbp.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/images/animutation/history.md","related":["peanut-butter-jelly-time","salad-fingers","amazing-horse","the-terrible-secret-of-space","2204355-coxinha-roll","badger-badger-badger","breadfish","charlie-the-unicorn","egoraptor-arin-hanson","gonads-and-strife","i-miss-you-daddy-its-been-a-year-daddy","leekspin-loituma-girl"],"popularityRank":1004,"license":"Meme images and history: templates, screenshots, photos and fan edits, many of copyrighted material or real people.
