These people are making art out of screen glitches
Have you ever experienced that scrambled screen on you tv or computer?
That is art.
People from all over the world have been trying to replicate those glitches that appear on screens and to control them to make art that is then shared on the internet, in gallery exhibits and during performances.
As Wikipedia puts it:
%shareLinks-quote="Glitch art is the aestheticization of digital or analog errors, such as artifacts and other "bugs"" type="spreadWord"%
Hacks, mistakes, malfunctions are all the starting point of such practice that can create some amazing results.
Here are a few examples of artists and not posting their pieces on Twitter:
