Description

A Guide to Databend Compression Design (PDF) The Vernacular of File Formats database, consisting of 16GB of broken images, has found a home in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, while several prints from the PDF have found their home private collections. The girl in the image is me, 10 years ago. More info on the making off and other documentation can be found here: https://beyondresolution.info/A-Vernacular-of-File-Formats A file format is an encoding system that organises data according to a particular syntax. These organisations are commonly referred to as compression algorithms. The choice of an image compression depends on its foreseen mode and place of usage: for instance, is the file meant to be printed or redistributed digitally, what kind of accuracy will be necessary and what software or hardware will render the image? In A Vernacular of File Formats, I subsequently compressed the source image via different compression languages and subsequently implementing a same (or similar) error into each file, to let the otherwise invisible compression language presents itself onto the surface of the image.
