Rhizome - Prosthetic Knowledge Picks: Internet Coolhunting
A collection of examples where pop culture was clearly inspired by smaller creative activities on the web (with some people not necessarily happy about it). With online chatter regarding the performance by Rihanna on Saturday Night Live and it’s adoption to the net-art ‘Seapunk’ style, it’s worth knowing that the mixed reaction is not an isolated occasion. Marketers employ ‘coolhunters’ to look out for interesting small cultural developments to make their artist’s seem ‘fresh’ and ahead of the game, an activity that has been happening since the early 1990s, which was a key subject in William Gibson’s 2003 novel Pattern Recognition.
Examples include Timbaland + Chiptune, Tumblr Fashion + Jeremy Scott, Paul B Davis “Datamoshing” Technique + Kanye West, and A Stroke of Genuis - Freelance Hellraiser + RCA.

Chairlift - “Evident Utensil” Music Video by Data Mosher
@Goto80 informs me that this is the first mainstream use of the datamoshing technique in a video, and from what I’ve seen, hasn’t been used better since.
Thanks @Goto80!
Thanks for sharing :)
THIS LINK is the video being talked about
I haven’t seen that or been aware of that before - quite interesting to see it in a black and white style.
The only high profile version of this style of glitching (datamoshing) I’ve seen before is the Kanye West music video for ‘Welcome To Heartbreak’. Unfortunately for the guy who discovered the technique, this music video came out before he was putting on an art show of his works. The artist (Paul B. Davis) renamed the event ‘DEFINE YOUR TERMS (OR KANYE WEST FUCKED UP MY SHOW)’ !!!
This link will take you a video and interview with Paul B. Davies.
PS - If you are interested in how datamoshing works, or would like to make your own, I recommend this tutorial

Craziest use of of datamoshing I have seen in a while - geometric and organic at the same time.

In case you wanted to know ….
This is part one, explaining what datamoshing is and the mechanics behind it. Follow the video and its annotations that take you to part two.
The Creator Project: A Chat with Paul B Davis
Pixel artists, 8-bit manipulators, .gif makers and video glitch creators, stop what you are doing right now and treat yourself for 6 minutes with an interview and small retrospective of one of the masters
I’m looking at Max Capacity, Enso, Haydiroket, Illeagle, v5mt, dvdp - I genuinely think you and your peers will love this :D
From his pixel work and projections involving hacked NES cartridges, his 8-bit Construction Set LP, to how Kanye West ripped off his datamoshing technique, all good ideas.
Here is the link to the original page, which features more interview and a biography - interesting stuff.
