In this puzzle, we’re given a set of image grids, with images in each cell. Selecting a cell causes it to appear in the empty grid below.

Looking at the grids, we might be able to identify some of these as the covers of popular albums — we won’t make much progress with this information, though, but it does tell us this puzzle deals with music in some form.

Progress comes once we take a look at a music puzzle in the other dimension; this puzzle is entangled with Karaoke Machine. After identifying the songs being played there, we might notice a common thread between them: they all have sections that contain lists of things.

The things listed might be familiar (particularly hyper-specific ones like “a golden retriever in a flower crown” heard in “White Woman’s Instagram”), as the items for each song can be found in one of the grids:

Song	Performed by	Examples of things	Found In
White Woman’s Instagram	Bo Burnham	An open window, a novel, a couple holding hands...
My Favorite Things	Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music	Raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles...
What a Wonderful World	Louis Armstrong	Trees of green, red roses, friends shaking hands...
Royals	Lorde	Gold teeth, Grey Goose, bloodstains, ball gowns...
We Didn’t Start the Fire	Billy Joel	Richard Nixon, Wheel of Fortune, Psycho...

If we go through each image and start selecting cells that contain items mentioned in their paired songs, we’ll eventually build up an image in the bottom grid.

Fans of photography might recognize this flower symbol. However, if we’re not familiar, we can consult the flavortext, which mentions “camera settings” and that the image is “iconic.” If we do some searching, we’ll find that this is a common symbol seen on DSLR camera dials as the setting for MACRO photography, giving us our final answer.

Herman: Part of the inspiration for this puzzle are the Super Mario x Pokémon 8 Bit Scramble line of merchandise where Mario sprites collaged out of Pokémon sprites and vice-versa.
