The Cycle of Life is a short animation by u m a m i that is something like an advertisement, full of melancholy and unsettling strangeness.
The soup appeared in previous u m a m i animation The End of an Era.

This puts me in mind of the online video animation scene in the early 2000s. How I miss that gentle weirdness.

Interesting that the most-viewed video on u m a m i's YouTube channel is "Thomas the Thermonuclear Bomb". It says a lot about YouTube culture.

Campbell's needs to make a deal with the artist and run with this. Life would be better if advertisements were strange and dark and surprising.

Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup has taught me a valuable lesson this day.
