Animutation

Animutation is a form of art using Macromedia Flash to create pop culture influenced videos of foreign-language, independent, or (more rarely) mainstream music. The style was invented and popularized by Neil Cicierega (a.k.a. Trapezoid) from Kingston, Massachusetts at the age of 13. The genre is currently expanding to include many other Flash artists. Independent musicians are turning to animutation artists and Flash-based music videos to promote their work for the Internet community. Currently a cult following near that of the also-popular YTMNDs, the genre has the potential to become mainstream within the next few years.
