Datamosh Engine
Strip I-frames from any clip and let motion bleed across cuts. Frame-accurate P-frame corruption with live preview.
//SYS: SIGNAL_ACQUIRED v2.0.4
CORRUPT THE SIGNAL. MAKE IT ART.
A browser-based glitch studio: datamosh engines, pixel sorting and chromatic tools for video and photo creators. No installs. No uploads.
// FEATURES
Three ways to break an image
Pixel Sorter
Sort pixels by luminance or hue along any axis. Threshold masks keep faces intact while the world dissolves.
Chromatic Suite
Split, offset and smear RGB channels with sub-pixel precision, then recombine. Aberration as an instrument.
// PROTOCOL
How the corruption runs
- 01
UPLOAD
Drop MP4, PNG or GIF up to 4K. Files stay on your machine — everything runs client-side.
- 02
CORRUPT
Stack mosh engines, sorts and channel splits on a non-destructive timeline.
- 03
EXPORT
Render MP4, PNG sequences or looping GIFs at full resolution. Artifacts stay crisp.
// FIELD REPORTS
Signals from the wild
“DATAMOSH replaced my whole After Effects corruption stack. The pixel sorter alone paid for the year.”
Music Video Director
“I feed it clean 4K footage and get back something that looks like a broken transmission from 2098. Clients think I own a time machine.”

// DEBUG LOG
Frequently asked errors
What is datamoshing, exactly?
Codecs store most frames as changes from the previous frame. Datamoshing deletes the “true” frames so those changes get applied to the wrong image — motion smears, melts and bleeds between shots. DATAMOSH automates the whole process on a visual timeline.
Do my files get uploaded anywhere?
No. DATAMOSH runs entirely in your browser via WebCodecs and WASM. Your footage never leaves your machine, and rendering works offline once the app is loaded.
Can I sell art I make here?
Yes — on every tier, including GLITCH. We claim zero rights over your corrupted output. Commercial, print or on-chain, whatever your transmission requires.
