#1 is always called a digital glitch but that's what an analog glitch looks like. Like a videotape digital glitches look pixelated.

10 years ago | Likes 666 Dislikes 0

If it was analog it would be static

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 3

It is more like an analog artifact, it looks very much like a VHS tracking error.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

It's a real cabinet based on a digital rendering of an analog glitch of an imagined real cabinet. Circle of life.

10 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Not necessarily just pixelated. There's macroblocking, "data moshing," and of course the "digital cliff"--a total dropout of the picture.

Some versions you see are renderings, some are real. I saw it in person in DC. It is amazing and I want one.

Exactly. Rather, they were sunken there to create an artificial reef and promote biodiversity. Which it has done.

Are they more fragile? Do you have to take extra special care since you have extra years of candy wear and tear?

They are in the area of the frame. If we don't count the folks on the far side,we don't get to count anyone indoors on the near side either.
