Does anyone on here know how to design this? I believe it’s a video, with a black frame and the blob in the middle is white.

this is basically a custom cursor that is animatied. and it has the mix-blend-mode: difference assigned.

To achieve this you would need to set up a curor via javascript that is e.g. a gif with transparent background and assign the css blend mode to it.

And you would need some coding knowledge to do this!
