Gm friends :) I want to chat! Lol. What are you up to? Share something with me... Something you're watching, listening to, reading, working on, interested by, idk. I'll start with a glitch photo of a stone sculpture. I have a second glitch cam coming in the mail from @letsglitchit I just head this morning so I'm stoked to test it and see how it's different. I also just got prints yesterday from @intodaysnight for my Aethers (my pfp and another one). Thank you Nilus! Will post pics later but they look great. Need frames.

Cool. What got you into the glitch style?

Basically just being around crypto art :) I started following people like ex mortal, aitso, Dawnia, Sky Goodman and others who were minting Tezos work when I was collecting over there. Started learning about analog glitch and circuit bending. Also have seen some of it in the past with local analog artists who do visuals for shows. I played with edits and gifs, "fake glitch" I call it, but recently got a Dawnia circuitbent camera to continue experimenting.

Wow. This is so new to me. I've seen you posting and didn't realize this was its own art form. How will the camera take you to the next level? Does it do some of the glitching? Hope you don't mind all the questions!

No I don't mind at all. So Dawnia is a glitch artist who makes these cameras where she takes it apart and messes with the wiring so the images are messed up but basically each one is slightly different so they have unique effects. I like it because it's a different combination of physical photography and digital art, it's a little bit skill and a little bit random. You have to rethink the lighting and colors and composition of the photography. But yeah glitch art in general it's been around for a long time with CRT TV circuit bending mostly. So that's analog glitch. But then digital art that is inspired by that aesthetic became popular for example with xcopy, jak and others. So I guess there's a few subgenres of glitch art now but the main idea is that it's all about celebrating strangeness and randomness and errors and imperfections with a digital-native aesthetic.
