Our constant search for complete transparency has brought us new, more ‘perfect’
media. Even so, all these media have their own fingerprints of imperfection.

3. The continuing search for a noiseless channel is no more
then a regrettable, ill-fated dogma.
Within Shannon and Weavers model, there are three instances when the static notion of
transmitting information is interrupted and that result in artifacts:
Encoding / decoding (compression), Glitch and Feedback

6. Glitches inevitably become filters

Glitchspeak (opposing ʻNewspeakʼ: Orwell, 1984.) is not just a new form, but an
exoskeleton of progress.
The glitch is a new generative form.
This is why there is a need for Glitch Studies.

7. Speak the totalitarian language of disintegration
The role of artifacts in critical media aesthetics is a trans-media aesthetics (not a post-
media aesthetics)
* Shows a medium in a critical state (ruined, unwanted, not recognized, accidental and
horrendous state)
* Critique the medium (genre, interface and expectations)
