Abstract
Why is animation such a central aesthetic in today's epistemic environment and when did viewers begin to accept animation's veracity, despite looking nothing like photorealism or anything one would witness directly? This article explores the techno-cultural reasons for the rise of animated non-fiction in the last 15 years. The article covers animated non-fiction's relation to image production technologies and image manipulation; documentary and surveillance culture; the information age and big data; machine vision, machine perception and Al; and finally, the virtualization of culture.
