Thank you DAOBAO for this essay. It's super interesting to read how you translated my recent work to these thoughts of yours.

Here's a little excerpt from Daobao's esay "What you are seeing is almost as much a tracer of fired round as it is the trails of light you might see during an LSD trip. They may seem artificial in one’s physical experience of such things, but in an art piece it is the legacy of its making that makes it a part of the object. It makes a metaphysical sculpting into a recognisable form.

In my opinion, this is why Salazar doesn’t seem to spend much effort in ensuring there’s a reference point for the object that inspired the glitch, like you would see in other glitch artist. He wants that “tracer” of the craftmanship to remain a focus of the work."
