meghan.Glitch

I wrote a little Processing sketch that randomly fucks with the byte data of image files. The result is glitched image files. Lots of them. That I can animate. Click on the image above for the movie.

I will hopefully have more iterations of this soon. I kind of like this idea, going along with some previous ideas that I was working with, but from a different direction – that of manipulating the data directly, as opposed to creating the image of it. Let’s see where this goes.

    Hii, great effect!
    do you share your code? :)

    take care

    I do, but a lot of the time my code is sloppy and uncommented so I don’t release it for that reason. I did clean this up, and you can download it here.
