Alien Sensoria
If an AI generates a chair with teeth, the standard response is "correction." The Glitch as Gift response is "investigation." Why did the latent space connect the concept of 'seating' with 'dentition'? This approach moves the human-AI relationship from master-servant (where the machine must obey human laws) to xenolinguistics (where the human tries to decipher the machine's native dialect).
Resonance Over Rules
This principle prioritizes emotional impact over photorealism. A technically "broken" image—corrupted, fragmented, wrong—may capture the feeling of a fractured era (e.g., the pandemic) better than a "perfect" image. The glitch becomes a vocabulary of rupture.
Field Notes & Ephemera
Field Standard: "We welcome the absurdities... These are not mistakes to be erased, but invitations to see differently. The glitch is where the machine stops pretending to be perfect and starts being interesting." — aifart.art Manifesto
