Glitched cover art - Autechre style

There's a thread on /mu/ with people posting glitchified album art and there are some Ae covers. Thought I'd share here if anyone's interested. The grey L-event would have to be my favorite, for sure

second and third look really nice.

2nd one is now my wallpaper

oh hey! i made the third and fourth ones. glad you liked them enough to make one your avatar haha

Yeah I like the silver, metallic looking parts quite a bit. And there's another one I made and forgot to post.

I wonder how they made the first one, with the subtle deformation of the edges and all.

That's just a whole lot of bass boost. It's one of the three I made.

Nice. What's the process you're using to create these if you don't mind sharing?

i make mine by converting the image to a TIFF using photoshop, importing it into audacity as raw data with encoding set to 'a-law' and just fuckin around with it. here, i did oversteps

That's nice Petina

I've fucked with other audio/pic tingz before, but I never did this technique. Just did it now. Pretty cool. Thanks!

and then you simply get the image by putting the audio thorugh spectogram?

After applying whatever effects you like in Audacity, you export the file as "Other uncompressed files", with the options being "RAW (header-less)" and U-Law or A-Law, depending on how you started. And be sure to have the file extension be whatever image format it was to begin with. In my case, .bmp
