  • Tune In

    For my final piece for my studies in Digital Arts in Performance at Birmingham City University I collaborated with Alex Botten (aka Thee Moths (RIP)) on a performance piece called Tune In. (there’s also a performance video of it) Without revealing too much here, the piece is a trip through memory lane and nostalgia…

  • Meatfeast – Self-inflicted Haircut

    The video for Self-Inflicted Haircut by Meatfeast is now online! Guess which parts I provided… For this video I utilised the What Glitch? scripts (specifically the pcx script) and Joe Friedl‘s – (aka grampajoe) Autodatamosh Perl script. You can buy Meatfeast’s EP, Hands Like Claws, on Amazon or listen to it on good ol’…

  • Interview with Imperica – Celebrating Imperfection

    I was interviewed by Imperica recently about GLI.TC/H coming to Birmingham. For the viewer, appreciating Glitch art inevitably depends on the form that the work takes, and an understanding of the work not being “broken” but a new construction in itself. Glitched artwork “… can be beautiful, but it can also be chaotically noisy.…

  • Making Skin Cells

    The making of Skin Cells was quite a long process. It started projecting my Bunnies video onto me and filming this. I then took this and ran it through the What Glitch? sgi script to create a glitched version of the video, leaving me with two versions of the video. When it came to…

  • GLI.TC/H 2011

    DO iT TO_GATHER! GLI.TC/H was a simple idea that was hatched upon the notion of folks gathering together and engaging/chatting/debating the issues/theories/concerns of failure, systems, art, && glitches. We were able to realize this gathering last year in Chicago. GLI.TC/H 2010 brought people together for five days of glitchy art, hacking/coding workshops, discussions, screenings,…

  • Extrafile

    By now we’ve all seen so many jpg and bmp glitches that they’ve almost become just another effect. Unfortunately, due to the limited amount of image file formats there are only a finite number of ways to exploit them. Extrafile, by Kim Asendorf, is a great response to this. The application allows one to…

  • LÖVE Glitches

    Whilst I was in Venice for the Laptop Meets Musicians festival with BiLE I had the pleasure of (finally) meeting {rukano} who later showed me this really awesome way of displaying uncleared video memory with LOVE and LICK. I’m using Ubuntu 11.04 with LÖVE version love_0.7.2-0natty2_i386.deb. Once you have downloaded and installed LÖVE and…
