1. Artifacts: A Conversation Between Hito Steyerl and Daniel Rourke: http://rhizome.org/editorial/2013/mar/28/artifacts/

   “Digital information is thus characterised by transformation, degradation, circulation, but also by its surprising ability to mutate and produce unpredictable results. The glitch, the bruise of the image or sound testifies to its being worked with and working; being passed on and circulated, being matter in action. History inscribes itself into the image in forms of bruises and scars” – Hito Steyerl

   “Glitches expose us to the inner dynamism of the digital, but I wonder what it is about the current conditions of our society that tend to turn us away from the tensions and contestations locked up there in the first place?” – Daniel Rourke

   We are the glitch in the smooth signals of certainty and its parasitic relation to capital.
