Monster Movie
2005 · Film · short · 4 min
Directed by Takeshi Murata
In Monster Movie Murata employs an exacting frame-by-frame technique to turn a bit of B-movie footage (from the 1981 film Caveman) into a seething, fragmented morass of color and shape that decomposes and reconstitutes itself thirty times per second.

Wow. This article is killing me with its Gell-Mann Amnesia effects. It's like reading a history from an alternate timeline.
And why doesn't the included Twitter bot link work?

And of, course, the linked youtube video is some obvious corporate pop famous-for-being-famous drivel, almost immediately after stating the following:
Two years later, the artist Takeshi Murata created “Monster Movie,” which blended footage from a 1981 B-movie and a heavy soundtrack and which is now in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian as perhaps the most influential piece in the datamosh canon.
And yet a better Youtube link is avoided:

But why?
