Glitching means to error or malfunction which i think suits my ideas behind showing memory loss (amnisea).
The asthetics are something which I like to further explore in my work. The style suits my idea better than just image compression. With some cases of amnisea experiments have shown that memories are stored in their patients LTM (long term memory) but the act of retrival into their short term memory fails them.
With my ideas on image compression, this is distorying and/or removing the data, where as glitching is taking the information and causing errors, much like the erroring affect when a patient tries to retreave a memory stored within there LTM.
Glitchs are most likely to occur when data is changing from one area to another, much like how memories move around the memory model. Glitch aesthetics focus on imprefections, corruption and fragmentation. All these words can directly relate to memory problems.
Within my tutors dissertation he says that "conveyance of meaning" is a less explored characteristic of glitching, although this was written 4 years ago now, i feel that i can explore this area by using my concept as a baseline from which my work can grow around.
