The same real photo (a tree, a building, a statue, a landscape) appears in several versions aligned in the same place: the seasons of the year, bare branches, ink negative, holographic iridescent film and barcode. Because they're in perfect registration, the object doesn't jump from one block to the next. A mosaic of rectangular blocks on a grid swaps those versions about 10 times per second, hard, with no easing, over a lilac-blue sky and blurred grass, with black cinema bars. The text lives in tiles on the same grid and lights up cell by cell. The skill generates the versions by script, uses free photos from Wikimedia Commons and synthesizes the sound. Requirements: Node 20 or newer, ffmpeg and python3, with internet to fetch the photos. Cutting out with Vision on macOS 14 or newer is optional.
