Class exercise 1: create lots of glitchy jpegs.

Here's what I was able to do with a combination of TextEdit and TextWrangler. I found it challenging to get something that really lit me up.

Here's what I started with: Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 1 - student project

Then I started randomly messing with text. But when I try to upload them into this page, I get this error from the site:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 2 - student project

Anyone know why that happened?

BUT, I opened it in Preview and did a screen capture. That I could post. Here:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 3 - student project

So, cut to the end... here are the final 2 images I made:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 4 - student project

...and:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 5 - student project

Here is the GIF:

EXERCISE THREE: DATABENDING WITH AUDACITY

What I started with:

2 steps later:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 8 - student project

Step 6:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 9 - student project

My fave, step 8:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 10 - student project

step 11 is kind of cool

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 11 - student project

And finally step 17

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 12 - student project

And as an animated GIF:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 13 - student project

I did a little more databending in audacity. I was determined to use the image that was giving me trouble. Here's what happened:

Starting image:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 14 - student project

adding echo in audacity (love this!):

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 15 - student project

Then compressor:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 16 - student project

Then a hard limiter:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 17 - student project

Then I put it thru HexFiend:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 18 - student project

Then that went back into audacity and some cut/copy/paste:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 19 - student project

Then I warbled the envelope:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 20 - student project

Added GVerb:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 21 - student project

A high pass filter:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 22 - student project

Then I reversed it:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 23 - student project

That didn't do too much interesting, so I added distortion:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 24 - student project

And, because I've grown so fond of the animated gif:

Lesion Won/TOO/три - image 25 - student project

Now it was well and truly bent beyond recognition.
