<strong>Glitch</strong> <strong>Aesthetics</strong><br />
<strong>Iman</strong> <strong>Moradi</strong><br />
Physical manipulation of medium<br />
So far the discussion of glitches has been limited to the two dimensional visual<br />
domain. If we consider the glitch as a direct descendant of Gustav Metzger’s Auto<br />
destructive movement, then the action Acid paintings he proposed and<br />
demonstrated can be a source of inspiration that may herald, the glitch’s use<br />
beyond the two dimensional screen displays we are usually accustomed to seeing<br />
them on. A glitch artefact can simply be a sculpture.<br />
A modest proposal for a <strong>Glitch</strong> Sculpture:<br />
If we consider a wide reaching manmade accident or natural disaster happening in<br />
the locale of a city as a glitch and map the frequency of a band of radio<br />
communications that are initiated during or after the glitch occurrence onto a<br />
physical medium. Then that sculpture’s essence is directly influenced by the glitch<br />
and it can be regarded as a glitch artwork. Without doubt, <strong>Glitch</strong> <strong>Aesthetics</strong> can<br />
become apparent in the visual appearance and physical characteristics of this<br />
sculpture.<br />
