From Rhizome Artbase
A set of tools for automated corruption of Microsoft PowerPoint slideshows designed to systematically pollute the web with unuseable copies of the original slideshow. A series of scripts written in Ruby scrapes Google for slideshows, extracts slides as images (as jpg, png, bmp, xpm, gif) and manipulates the image so as to produce a glitched slide. The slides are then assembled back into one file and uploaded to a public file hosting website.
