"The glitch is only conceivable in a world where music has become
partly or wholly mechanised. Recording converts sound into an object,
and as an object it is vulnerable to breakage. At the same time, the
object as capsule of sound (a measure of lived time scooped out of
time, just as the photograph snatches a single instant out of visual,
ontological reality) can accumulate power, potential energy."
