Effect achieved by rapidly scrolling through a landscape without allowing the application to render the 3D buildings. this creates glitches such as a data-moshing-esque effect and unrecognisable images due to grainy and incomplete lanscape.

favourites and why

I think that these snapshots best represent the grainyness and distorsion of google maps' glitches. The best effect is achieved when the subject of the snapshot is irrecognisable due to pixelation and un-rendered objects.

possible ideas

Mix the google maps 3D visuals with real-life footage. Bring the glitches to real life. Mimic the distorisions achieved on google maps to real footage.
