Sorry for any cross posting...

Glitch As Symbolic Form

Rob Myers takes us on a short historical journey of Glitch as an 
aesthetic signifier of technological presence that dates back at least 
to the 1980s. Referencing the Vaught-Kampf machine in Blade Runner 
(1982), the titular character in Max Headroom (1985). And how the use of 
Glitch as an artistic aesthetic in itself has accelerated with the 
democratisation of new technologies.
