All technologies have their own intrinsic errors, congenital to the nature of the technology. Rosa Menkman is a dutch visual artist who focuses on visual artefacts created by accidents in digital media (audio and video). Her work is the result of glitches, compression, technical feedback and other forms of noise. Although many people perceive these accidents as negative experiences, rosa menkman emphasises their positive outcomes. In this videoscape, she strives for new forms of conceptual synthesis (synaesthesia) of sound and video artefacts. Thanks to the combination of these practices with her academic background, the artist creates her abstract pieces within the scope of a grand theory, offering an in-depth analysis of glitch art in her the glitch manifesto..
