About this original series

My main interests have always revolved around inverting the default use of new media technologies, both hardware and software-wise. During my Video Vortex VJ set, I tried to make a collage of ways through which this can be accomplished within the video medium, focusing primarily on the concept of the glitch. The English term 'glitch' means a malfunction or an error and is generally used to indicate a small defect within a technology.Some of the glitches I will show happened accidentally, while others are triggered on purpose. For me a glitch is a form of machine poetry; a way to vocalize the internal workings of a technology.Sunshine in my Throat

  Performative Fail
  
  This video is made with the help of a collection of failing hard drive sounds, while the video is a combination of failed pdf screengrap videos (by me). It is the first time I made a (kind of) music video-thing all on my own. I didnt use any software except for firefox and quicktime - so not a 100% open source, I am sorry for you software-fashionista people ... but it is very lo-fi! -if that makes it better.
