Work from Exploring Error.
“An exploration of technical errors, beyond the notion of image failure.
The shifting presence and absence of sound in the video was produced along the process of bending, not imposed. None of the clips were edited; only selected, cropped and collected together, aiming to hide the original source and exhibit only the visual essence of the glitch. The main focus was not on choosing specific files to be bent, creating a distorted reproduction of them, but on the texture of ‘distortion’ itself; The glitch thus grows outside of its own skin, creating a new being where a different experience is formed.” – Sarah Samy
