Comparing glitch art to natural phenomena in the context of evolution
Mutation and Variation Natural Evolution: In nature, genetic mutations introduce variations in organisms. These random changes in DNA can lead to new traits, some beneficial, others neutral or detrimental. Glitch Art: Glitches in digital systems act like mutations, introducing unexpected variations in the original data or image. Just as in nature, these "mutations" can produce a wide range of effects, from subtle changes to dramatic transformations. Example: The datamoshing technique in video glitch art, where keyframes are removed, creates unexpected visual "mutations" as frames blend into each other, similar to how genetic material might combine in unpredictable ways. Natural Selection and Artistic Curation Natural Evolution: Environmental pressures select for traits that enhance survival and reproduction, shaping species over time....
