The track I chose was a melange of sounds produced by an online synth called “Surprise”, accessed without design and operated without talent or forethought, which was then reprocessed (equally randomly) using Granulab in ways it wasn’t designed to be used… so it was pretty glitch to start with. This was double-tracked and time-tinkered to do funny things to the stereo image.
This was then “improvised” on using The Mangle (also in unintended ways). The result was also double-tracked and time-tinkered, then laid over the original tracks and cut into three and spread out so that the original track could peek through in places – though it’s pretty difficult to tell where since they tend to sound somewhat similar.
Then I did the same thing to the image.

The Assignment: what happens when you glitch something that’s been glitched?
Step 1: Take a recording. Glitch it.
Step 2: Glitch it a second time, in some different manner, and try to have moments where the initial glitch remains evident and untarnished (well, un-further-tarnished).
