Databending and Glitch Art

[morgan_bvrns]

I've always liked glitch art, but today I decided to try and fucks with it a little. I used the Audacity databending method found here, and I'll definitely be experimenting with it some more in the hours and days to come. Anyway, here's my first result:

I'd be willing to fuck around with any picture anyone wants to send me, too.

Jason Elies needs to be in here.

Why, is he into this kinda shit?

Anyway, tried to glitch a picture of a polar bear. I think I might've broken the file a little too much.

Try to do something with this picture, Its been sitting around my computer with no use and It looks pretty sick so it might be cool to fuck around with

I've gotta be doing something wrong, these pics don't look anything like the originals.

One of my friends taught me a different way to do things that won't make the images so staticky and glitched, so I'm gonna try that out on all the pictures I have right now.

Hi guys.

 

[morgan_bvrns]

Hi guys.

Teach me your methods.

As you can see mine just mostly come out as static with some banding where colors were in the original image.

Just google "databending" and plenty of tutorials come up. I figured out how to get it this awesome using BMP text editing. I don't wanna post up a tutorial and then have every scooter kid doing this.

This one is fucking sweet.

Just figured I'd dick around with something that has some different colors and see how it looks. Don't like this one too much.

i :like: it, but try the modern MLP pics

 

[morgan_bvrns]

I dunno if I will, the bright solid colors don't seem to glitch as well. They're a lot harder to edit, too.
