Corrupt™ data corruption software

Wednesday, May 23, 2007



The post as payed off, the first Data bending i publish here on beepglitch, ive read about this trought reed gazalla and i was very intrested.sure to say that corrupt as came to me...

"Corrupt™ was first built with Proce55ing. The corruption process start by reading the binary of an image file [JPG or GIF], then some bytes are swaps [the number of replacement is a random value from 1 to 20]. The file is then "saved as" a new document. Depending on the number replacement and of the original compression, the image will have a completely different and unpredictable aesthetics. So from a single image the program can generate millions of corrupted versions. And because it is a real corruption system that damages the binaries of a file, some of the results can’t be showed because they are too damaged... The project is now available online for anyone who desire to corrupt his own JPG images.
This PHP version has been realised in collaboration with BlueMelon, thanks to them."

  • Nice! Those are my images! I saw your posting on the corrupting of images and tried it out. I really enjoyed the corrupt jpg output. Very random and strange.
