This is a very old work made in 2011, at the beginning of the spread of the world financial crisis, debts and economic collapse. Those were the days of Occupy Wall Street. This gif was made as part of Money . As . Error show.

The act of glitching, the altering of data within a digital format, was my way to address my stand against those icons and symbols of power, creating art from destruction, a creative/destructive process as a performance, appropriating the cultural power of those images, digital iconoclastia, the glitches in the system manifest on the screen, corruption depicted corrupting data. I chose as subject of those my early glitch workz the crazy world of finance, currencies, banks, corporations. It's a money game and we are all in to lose it!

Photo glitched via WordPad Effect and Incorrect Editing, two technics used in Databending.
