I'm thinking H.E. Day did something like this with his IRTC animation from the
"Alien Invasion" round. He says this in the text file:

"HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED:
The wizard is a bunch of blobs animated by splines, (in fact, that's pretty much
how everything was animated...)"

He may have meant something different though.
