*Inanimation-Definition

Inanimation: (noun) derived from the words “inanimate” and “animation.”

Inanimate: “the things that are not alive” or “not endowed with life or spirit” or “lacking the power of motion.”                      Animation: “the quality of being full of life or vigor” or “the quality of having abundant or intense activity”.

Inanimate personalities such as a guitar, a carousel, a rusty red trike or even a red door can become alive with the introduction of a sentient personality “being full of life or vigor,” and giving “abundant or intense activity ” to an otherwise inanimate object.  The inanimate can become animate with the flick of a switch, the pluck of the fingers or the twist of the wrist.

And thus, the inanimate becomes, animate.
