GlitchSort Processing Java application damages bitmap images in unpredictable and potentially interesting ways—and it has an up-to-date manual.
Features include interrupted pixel-sorting with several different algorithms, zigzag-scanned sorting, color quantization, channel swapping and shifting, image degradation with JPEG compression, glitchy compositing ("munging"), and endless image-damage with Fast Fourier Transforms (with equalizer and statistical interfaces).
It also has an admittedly primitive but functional "audify" feature, for turning images into noise in realtime.
Currently runs in Processing 1.5.1 on Mac, has been tested and ran on a PC, YMMV with °nix. Once a memory leak is fixed in Processing 2.0 image caching, it will be ported (fixes are minor). Requires ControlP5 1.5.2 for interface widgets.
