Style of animation pioneered in the USA by Tom Snyder, which uses animation done so crudely that, paradoxically, it looks like a lot more is going on than really is. A very similar animation style was used in chidren's animations in Great Britain as early as 1974. This is not to say that Snyder "stole" this animation effect, known to its originators as "boiling": it is so technologically simple and easy to reproduce that he may well have stumbled on it independently without knowing it had been used before. Examples of Squiggle Vision include:

Rather than the mostly-static scenes uses by other cheap animation methods (especially those used by Filmation), five similar but slightly different drawings are run in loops. As a result, everything in the frame seems to vibrate, giving the illusion of hyperactivity of motion, even though nothing in the scene is actually moving. The psychological effect on the audience is similar to that of the Jittercam. Examples of Squiggle Vision include:
