With GLITCH: ONTOLOGICAL EXHAUSTIONS & SYSTEM FAILURES, Spazju Kreattiv becomes an amplifier for reflections on digitality & resistance, history & remembrance: aesthetic “disruptions” (glitches) challenge the audience to reflect on their technology-dependent society.East German resistance is a model that shows how hegemonic narratives can be rewritten. Glitch Art—a powerful tool to deconstruct the technocratic, dictatorial, and repressive dimensions of neoliberal, communist, or capitalist systems—pushes us to the boundaries of our world, governed by surveillance, algorithmic dependence, and systemic exhaustion.
How old is the glitch? It has always existed. The Tractatus de Penitentia (1285) by Johannes Galensis introduces a subversive demon named Titivillus, the “patron demon of scribes,” who collected omitted, mumbled, and mispronounced words—especially those clerics who were said to have “stolen from God” during their morning prayers—which he preserved for their indictment at the end of days.
