The origin
Christopher Torres created the pixel animation in 2011; the familiar video paired the flying pastry-bodied cat with a looping Japanese vocal track.
How it spread
The combination became an endlessly replayable video and inspired remixes, games and variations, and was later sold as an NFT.
What it means
Joyful repetition and internet absurdity. A meme needs no argument, plot or ending.
