"In 2018/2019, I joined the Glitch Artists Collective as one of its admins and began helping to curate and run the GAC Instagram account (which I still do today, along with my friends and fellow glitch artists, Bee and Maya)."

"what interests me most about #glitch: distorting and breaking reality. Specifically, how far you can push and abstract something while still having its original form recognizable."

&& this 'Accessing previous files' for the "program" ie double meaning of a software program (AI) + a television program (TV), classic 💖✨ #glitch `ing again ;)

The film premiered at Chicago's Gene Siskel Film Center and continues on in games and Digital Art. My recent project Across The Great Threshold reimagines the histories of the panorama-postcard to create and transform technological landscapes.

I develop cultural research across curating, writing, and making. The Glitch Art Gallery is part of my 《 glitch◆school 》 that supports other artists, shares artistic knowledge, and builds communities internationally, enabling folks to connect and encounter new forms of art and culture.

At the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, I developed the New Media program, taught as a tenured professor, and held leadership positions. I now continue my commitment to open education independently via my 《 glitch.school 》 initiative.

My Glitch Western is an ongoing body of original artwork that brings Glitch Art into conversation with the Western genre. In 2018, I completed my experimental feature film 鬼鎮 (Ghosttown), which reimagines and ‘unsettles’ the Western from multiple perspectives and first-hand accounts.

My artistic practice brings together experimental Digital Art, Cinema, Games, and Media Art History. I work with technologies and their histories as material realities, in order to explore the unexpected outcomes and surprises that we call #glitch `es.

I developed my artistic practice and career in Chicago. I helped to build communities that became a key part of the international Glitch Art movement. Teaching and making Art are fundamentally integrated in my practice.

I have been making and teaching #Art since the 1990s. I am known as one of the pioneers of #GlitchArt, an international artistic movement that emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

so its more likely that these 'glitches' were pixel pushed by hand, mayhaps by slicing them with layers to offset them carefully and more specifically control which colors are appearing in which positions

which all points in the directions of #postglitch design && hopefully these #glitch approaches carry deeper meanings to VisionQuest itself

how do we rebuild independence from platforms that have / do extract our value from us as artists, while still acknowledging our interdependence to build communities of Digital Art together?
