[ Project 1 + Statement ]

My pieces don't have much meaning to them at all. I focused a lot on animals which is something I am very interested in. When it comes to glitch, I used what one would normally think of. Dashed colors and pixeled streaks. I strayed away from anything like a wave tool or text cutting off half the image for visual purpose as well as for my own liking. For the AI images themselves something I worked towards was making sure the animals were all diverse whether in their pose or atmosphere. Programs I enjoyed the most was photoshop and audacity. Text editing was another easy to learn program that I enjoyed. Pixelsort was something that wasn't up to my own personal tastes. It did make some cool images but they weren't colorful enough and felt too distorted. Every step involved some sort of trial and error to it from getting a good Ai image base to getting the glitch to look like my style. I also quickly learned jpeg (unfortunately) was a better option in text editing compared to png. All pieces did turn out nice and I wish I could have gotten better results for the koi fish and dragon but I was running out of time due to needing to study for 2 exams. I enjoyed the falcon one the most as well as the tiger and cat. Overall I got a lot of great results from these and each way to achieve a glitch was so fun to explore and see which would fit best for me.
