Explores 'bugs' in two ways: as unintended errors, processes and aesthetics stemming from visual errors in digital technologies, and as insects, with themes like swarming, webbing, symbiosis, and extinction. Provides critical insights into contemporary networked and machine-based photography. Using the medium as its locus, the accompanying exhibition examines how what might initially be perceived as an error can act as a creative and critical agent, simultaneously. Following the play on the double meaning of a bug, as a glitch and as an insect, the volume is designed as a field guide, including an introduction and accompanying essays.
