Glitch Art

«This began in July 2001 with glitch art: computer screenshots from corrupted software and the visualisation of computer memory. This was inspired by my childhood experiences of playing with the first home computers in the early 80s. It was quite frightening when things went wrong and the machine crashed with a screenfull of random-looking pixelly graphics. I remember thinking how beautiful this looked. Another strong influence was playing Missile Command on the Atari games console. With its disturbing nuclear colours and bleak aesthetic, I started to mistake it for real life, growing up as I did at the height of the Cold War with the threat of death by ionizing radiation never more than four short minutes away. I also accept commissions for large glitch art trompe-l'oeil to enhance the reception areas of nuclear bunkers, safe houses, gambling dens, drugs factories, rocket launch pads, hospital radiation therapy suites, investment bank front-offices (FX preferred), and all good fee-paying schools.» (http://www.beflix.com/biog.php)
