Getting Glitchy

Computers are these machines that we have engineered to be totally deterministic. No matter how many times a computer is provided with with some input, it should always give the same output. This is why glitch art is so fascinating - it happens when computers dont work the way they are supposed to. Of course computers crap out all the time, but that is usually due to poor programming for end-user applications. Actual data corruption is much rarer, and can both wreak havoc and be utterly entrancing.
