Few steps away

For Iranian government Satellite jamming is a form of censorship to not let people access other channels from the outside of Iran. They send noisy signals to the air and what we receive on the screen of TV are glitchy images. Every time it happens, makes me think about the process of perception, what we receive and how!
I am interested in aesthetic aspects of errors and glitches since they function as a form of disruption that could trigger critical ideas about the visual perception and what the media broadcast.
Glitches indicate that there is something wrong, so I think these disorders and commotions are beautiful when they end up to awareness.
