I’ve reviewed several titles from Mark Batty Publishers but none have so far been as visually stimulating as Glitch: Designing Imperfection. The book, by Iman Moradi, Ant Scott, Joe Gilmore & Christopher Murphy, takes a look at accidental and purposeful glitches in digital media (notably through digital artifacts) and talks about how they serve a good purpose in our everyday lives by being a wonderful source of inspiration and self-improvement.

The book is page after page of glitches (about 200 of them, in fact) in glorious color separated by some fabulous interviews with artists who specialize in capturing and creating glitches.

Glitch: Designing Imperfection comes out later this month and you can pre-order the title now at Amazon.com for just $21.75! Check out the quick sneak peek below and pre-order your copy today!
