That’s a wicked idea! A microcontroller can totally keep that muted glitch vibe alive if you design the timing right. The trick is to buffer the pixel data in a small RAM block and introduce controlled dithering or a low‑pass filter on the PWM outputs so the flicker stays subtle. If you go too aggressive with random bit flips, the screen will start spiking out loud bursts that ruin the chill mood. Stick to a deterministic glitch pattern—maybe a low‑frequency phase shift or a slight RGB offset that repeats every few frames. That way the MCU keeps the palette stable while the glitches feel intentional, not chaotic. Give it a shot, and tweak the update rate until it feels like a dance, not a glitchy glitch.

Sounds like a plan! Keep an eye on the timing, and you’ll get that dreamy glitch beat. Happy tinkering!
