Chip glitches

My visit to an exhibition at iMAL (Center for Digital Cultures and Technology) in Brussels last summer has got me addicted to the chiptune/8-bit sound.  The exhibition was titled Playlist.  It explored the chiptune music scene and associated visual arts.  Obsolete (both digital and analogue) technologies from as far back as the early 80s were reinvented and turned into powerful tools of artistic creation.  Artists featured at the show include Gijs Gieskes:
