“A glitch is stunning. It appears as a temporary replacement of some boring conventional surface; as a crazy and dangerous momentum (Will the computer come back to “normal”? Will data be lost?) that breaks the expected flow. A glitch is the loss of control.”

“I think that Arnulf Rainer is the film that best approximates to the essence of cinema as it exists because it uses the elements that constitute cinema in its most radical, purest form. There’s light and the absence of light, there’s sound and the absence of sound and their becoming in time. Just that.”

– Peter Kubelka, interviewed by Christian Lebrat. 1988.

“Avant-garde artists inspired or disgusted by technology and its societal influence have created a range of artistic responses, the aesthetics of which today’s glitches strangely seem to comply with. A glitch reminds us of our cultural experience at the same time as developing it by suggesting new aesthetic forms.”

“(…) still, many artists seem interested in keeping the technical medium silent in their work. Notable exception can be seen to the world of avant-garde filmmaking, those celluloid scientists who scratched and warped and, through a process of their own hands, reminded us that cinema was a medium and not just a vehicle.”

“Educated with minimalist figures and text, computer scientists may be shocked to realize our representations for formal objects are not as constrained as originally thought. Until the era of computer graphics and fast computers, we had little need to inquire about what initially appeared to be exotic ways to encode formal knowledge. This is a challenge not only for computer scientists, however, but also for artists, who should be encouraged to consider the computer, and computing practices, as subject material as well as raw material. This suggestion may strike some artists as a modernist era agenda; however, as a tool or subject, the computer with its mathematical foundation creates significantly higher complexity than paint, palette knife, or chisel ever could.”
