Summary

CMYK’s Medium piece ostensibly about their own ”80s Glitch CMYK” series on Rarible, but opens with Max Capacity as the pivotal discovery that inspired the project. CMYK credits seeing Max Capacity’s work as the moment they became interested in glitch art, describing his approach as “hardcore, direct from analogue.” Three Max Capacity works are reproduced with captions.

The article was significant enough that Max Capacity appears in the comments section.
