Mistakes often lead to new insights and new thinking. This project came out of a complete mistake. Whilst uploading some pictures to my server via my usual FTP software, I mistakenly had the transfer type set to TEXT. It should be set to BINARY or AUTO. When I went to view the images I found they had been distorted and twisted into something new. A techno glitch had created completely new imagery.
Below are the five images, showing first the original and then the corrupted version.
Reminds me of my SNES. Every so often I’d boot it up and get some messed-up picture like this, or it would play all the songs in Super Mario Bros on top of each other - You never knew what it was going to do next xD
