Glitch, selfie, hacking, error? Students in Linz Art University’s Graphic Education program and festivalgoers play with analog and digital approaches to photography in a domain bounded by self-portrayal and image interference. Instead of deploying prefab digital filters, analog disruptions of digital images will be experimentally produced via colored foils, glass elements, mirrors, fabrics, common, everyday devices and lots more. Participants will explore the possibilities of hacking an SLR camera, and create analog add-ons for their own cell phone’s camera. Then they can take home the selfie shot with them either in digital form or as a photographic printout.
