i am a construct
designed by the social paradigms, values, and ideals
constantly defined, and redefined, by a language that determines my social relations, my thought processes, and my understanding of who and what i am
manufactured by images of late stage capitalism and war
produced by a set of cultural practices and values that characterise my perceptions as a series of preferences, dispositions, proclivities, and biases.

The fragmented image, the broken code, the data corruption - the 'Glitch' stands for the rupture or trauma in one’s memory. By allowing the internal resistance to surface not in behaviour, but through a medium that offers a controlled, abstracted release of tension, the Glitch takes shape of a displaced manifestation, an act that mirrors the inherent struggle of confronting and expressing a repressed memory.
Glitch fundamentally resists the logic of the market, which values frictionless, consumable content that can be easily categorised, packaged, and sold. It is often non-commercial works that are difficult to categorise, and intentionally disruptive, thus acting as an anti-commodity aesthetic.
Glitch actively resists the institutional and corporate mandate for digital perfection and smooth functionality. In celebrating the error, Glitch challenges the authority of the structures that demand flawless interfaces, whether in corporate branding, polished media narratives, or seamless institutional data processing.
Glitch is more than an aesthetic play; it is a deliberate strategy of resistance. It is an assertion of your and my digital sovereignty - a declaration that the underlying code of one's existence will not be clean, legible, or profitable for the system.

words,
i am particularly when viewed through the lens of contemporary art and psychology, is not a fixed, internal core but a dynamic, ever-changing portfolio of roles and narratives. It is the fluid story an individual continuously constructs and performs using my memories and perceptions, adapting them instantly in response to social context, cultural demands, and the pervasive influence of technology. This perspective sees identity as an artistic creation - a constant process of expression, mediation, and redefinition.

We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect.

Bharatiya Nagarik Surakhsha Sanhita, 2023 [Indian Citizen's Protection Code, 2023]
Section 144. (1) If any person having sufficient means neglects or refuses to maintain—
(a) his wife, unable to maintain herself; or
(b) his legitimate or illegitimate child, whether married or not, unable to maintain itself; or
(c) his legitimate or illegitimate child (not being a married daughter) who has
attained majority, where such child is, by reason of any physical or mental abnormality or injury unable to maintain itself; or
(d) his father or mother, unable to maintain himself or herself, a Magistrate of the first class may, upon proof of such neglect or refusal, order such person to make a monthly allowance for the maintenance of his wife or such child, father or mother, at such monthly rate as such Magistrate thinks fit and to pay the same to such person as the Magistrate may from time to time direct:
Provided that the Magistrate may order the father of a female child referred to in clause (b) to make such allowance, until she attains her majority, if the Magistrate is satisfied that the husband of such female child, if married, is not possessed of sufficient means:

Provided also that an application for the monthly allowance for the interim maintenance and expenses of proceeding under the second proviso shall, as far as possible, be disposed of within sixty days from the date of the service of notice of the application to such person.
