Of course, using virtual as this vague descriptor does not do much to define what I felt. The best way I can explain this is glitch art reveals a particular strain of decay. The flaws that appear when I corrupt the bits of a JPEG or delete frames from a video follow a logic that can only exist in the realm of binary. Collapse dictated by the right-angles of misinterpreted color channels. Visual omission through algorithms that were made blunt by shaving off strings of code. Glitches bring decay, and with decay comes ends. They are softwares' epilogues, and they are wholly unique to the medium.visual_path2020-04-14T17:39:26+00:00MP0b3989f8b160e074aa2cff76ed0bc80e7e72fc17I found that breaking the images I'd taken, and breaking my site as a whole, felt more "virtual" than anything else I had tried.
