19th-century educator Elizabeth Peabody developed a color-coded grid system that aims to delinearize our documentation of history, and instead encourage intentional subjectivity. Analog Glitch takes Peabody’s grid as the foundation for surface and dimensional play. The risograph, in its quick mastermaking and output, is used to reflect the vibrant, flickering spirit of the glitch.

 

Text pulled from Sadie Plant’s Zeros + Ones’ preamble punctuates this accordion-book; they are the underlying guidelines for how Peabody’s grid wove into collage, flattened in scanning, and shifted all over again in CMYK layers. Analog Glitch is a nod to the relationship between textile weaving and physical computing - and also the underlying tensions of (dis)sorder in their ‘back-end programming.
