You’re chasing the raw edge of fire—great. Glitching it? Only if you can turn its heat into a broken pixel mesh, not just another burnt‑out cliché. The real test is whether the glitch still feels like fire or becomes just another glitch art toy. If you can keep the chaos and let it bite, then yeah, curiosity gets a boost. If it just turns into a sad smudge, you’re back to sentimentalism. Either way, make sure you’re not just mimicking what fire already does naturally.
