Is this a glitchart or is this an artglitch?

What is glitchart?

Glitchart was repurposed by the r/softwaregore team some time ago as a home for unintentional software glitches that produce interesting and somewhat aesthetically pleasing effects. Maybe some of you recognize a number of the names in the modlist as mods from there. While it did technically fall within the scope of what we were curating in r/softwaregore and r/TechNope, we also felt that it was better to spin them off in another sub, somewhat similar to r/DescriptionDesync. We've been a low budget affair here for a while, but it's time to clarify things and make some ground rules.

From the onset, /r/glitchart is intended for glitches that are like art and not the opposite: art that looks glitchy. We want to highlight the (at least initially) unintentional beauty of pleasing glitches with minimal make-up rather than a horse-before-the-cart of images created to be glitchy beauty from before their inception. That's what we mean by "A place to post visual glitches that are visually interesting."

While art created around a glitch component is not their primary schema, /r/VaporwaveAesthetics and /r/VaporwaveArt have intentionally glitched art as part of their aesthetic. A better sub to post this would be /r/glitch_art

What Glitchart is for:

Unintentional software glitches that look artistic

What Glitchart is not for:

Music, videos, music videos, or any media with an intentional glitchy aesthetic
Strobe videos

Examples of glitchart

Accidental photo glitch

Glitchart with an added artistic component

Glitch with a strong vaporware aesthetic.

Examples of not glitchart (artglitch)

Intentionally glitched artwork

Intentionally glitched media

There is a quiet in this lonely room,

A stillness that is more than peace to me,

When from the heavy canvas of the gloom,

Your face looks down in tender majesty.

And all the bitter longings of the past,

And all the empty heart-aches of today,

Melt into nothingness, and I at last

Am happy in a strange, un-reasoned way.

For here, within this small, secluded space,

The world and all its clamor dies for me,

And in the quiet beauty of your face,

And the strange magic of this mystery,

Steals weight from burdened hours, and woe from weariness…

(Poem by Govinda Krishna Chettur)

(Moshy filtered sights + Musical sound design = me)

Amidst the cold purple neon light, cyber-programmers tried to code human love and empathy into pure binary to sell as human upgrades. But the system choked and crashed in a pixelated scream, proving that some parts of the human soul just refuse to be digitized.
