!! ENVIRONMENTAL AWARD for the only app to feature 100% recycled pixels from organic lama hair !! VOTED NUMBER ONE most creative app ever in 20 saved simulation theory simulations of simulations! !! HIGHEST GROSSING APP in the history of all underground caverns! !! VOTED NUMBER ONE app in the fourth, fifth and sixth parallel dimensions in your mind! !! WINNER SEXIEST USER experience in 10 horizontal universes! ****!!!!PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY!!!!!***** You need to work for the results to find the magic with this app. If you want a more predictable real-time app than do not purchase this app. There are lots of amazing apps that have realtime glitch filters and FX that provide instant satisfaction this is definitely not one of them. DataMoshing does not emulate glitch it is a type of glitch. We have to break the video frames and then reassemble them in creative ways. If the app was real-time we would be time travelers. That’s the next update. Beam me back Scotty. Old school manual DataMoshing takes hours by hand. This takes seconds. Well aren’t you lucky. Giving Back To Artists: We know how it feels to be a broke artist and to not be able to afford the tools. We are going to be releasing many more video, music apps as well as hardware. We want you to have all the tools! Please email us if you are struggling financially and we will put you on our list to give you all of our products for free or at a discount until you are back up on your feet. What users are saying! “Man after my third mosh I realized that putting probes into animals brains with the intention to read peoples minds is a bad idea. It never ended up working out well in science fiction novels and I read a lot of them! After the fourth mosh I realized that living in a bubble on a toxic barren wasteland in space is not a good idea for mental health! Thanks DAC! You’re a life saver….Literally. Go Doge! -Elon Moshk "I can’t look at my wife’s face again after I saw her face melt ™ Now I am going to therapy three times a day! Thanks DAC for the memories!" -Kanye Westinghausen Mosh jr. "I thought I knew everything until I was humbled after my first Mosh. Now I live on top of a mountain in a cave thanks to Datamosh iOS!" -Quinten Moshintino "Data Mosh for iOS made me get in touch with my inner child. I love yoga now! I am super stretchy and chill! I also look great! Thanks Destroy All Circuits! Namoshte" -Chrissy Karma Moshkin "Great job! Dada Moshio would be proud!" RIP -Ralph Moshio It has taken us almost two years to make this app. It is a labor of love. We honestly didn’t think it would do this well. A big thank you to all the Glitchmanauts everyone that have supported us along the way and have given us countless suggestions to make the app the best it can be. We hope you enjoy it and much as we do. Please keep the suggestions coming. Its called email. Oh yea baby —— > ohhihello@desstroyallcircuits.com This app is dedicated in loving memory to Dada "Pizza Face" Moshio. 1930-1984 RIP. You will be missed.
