Glitch music came from accidental audio malfunctions such as a skipping CD, unwanted background noise, distortions, and vinyl scratches. Glitching caught on slowly in the art world, and in the 90s, it became more closely associated with the music industry. The three artists created a short glitch art video titled ‘ Digital TV Dinner ’ using a video game console and a VHS recorder in the late 1970s.Īlthough Digital TV Dinner looks pretty basic compared to the work of some of today’s glitch artists, it got the ball rolling and almost certainly changed the course of visual art for good.
So naturally, most of the population didn’t encounter glitches until computers became more accessible in the second half of the 20th century.Īs computer-generated graphics became part of the media landscapes in the 1970s, three pioneering artists, Raul Zaritsky, Jamie Fenton, and Dick Ainsworth, saw the potential glitching pixels could have to get their work into art galleries worldwide. A glitch is a brief interruption or error in digital files that display films, videos, music, and images.
