I like to see work that is broken, degrades over time, get corrupted and glitched. When creating the header graphic for Pixelsumo, I took a screenshot of the old site and ran it through Glitch browser to then create the distored image (shown above).
Ben Hanbury (who created the amazing Recycled TV), has used the Glitch Browser in creating a video loop for his VJing experiments. The process is lengthly as described by Ben :
I grabbed a bit of footage from the prelinger archive, exported it out as an image sequence from quicktime, uploaded all the images on to a webpage, put that through Glitch Browser, then downloaded the altered images, combined them in Flash, and finally exported it back into quicktime

cheers for the link Chris, liking the new pixelsumo design! … nice! (also have you switched blogging software from movable type to wordpress? how have you found it? - was thinking about doing the same myself) anyway not sure if I can make the coldcut thing (although it looks ace) definately up for one of the V&A things though, am also quite tempted to see Ecclectic Method on the 27th: http://www.93feeteast.co.uk/diary/index.cfm?Day=6 …what d’ya think?
