Yan - Glitch Art Photo Editor

Tired of beauty filters that make everyone look like a glazed donut? Yan is a digital chaos engine built to tear your pixels apart. Turn mundane snapshots into raw, gallery-grade glitch art, tactile prints, and retro 1-bit dither in seconds. No complex software, no learning curve — just pure, unapologetic visual experimentation. [Shoot Live, Remix, Export] - Real-Time Camera: Point your lens and watch reality deconstruct live. All 19 effects run straight in your viewfinder — shoot stills or record video. - Effect Gallery: Every effect previewed on your own photo, side by side. Pick with your eyes instead of guessing at names. - Effects That Move: Every effect can animate — drive its parameters over time and export the result as a clip. - Before & After Export: Show the transformation in a split comparison layout, in 1:1, 3:4, or 16:9. [19 Effects across 6 Families] GLITCH (6) — Pixel Sort, RGB Shift, Block Jitter, Vertical Melt, Luma Stretch, Blob Track. Let gravity do the art: pixels fall, blocks tear, highlights drip, channels split, and sci-fi annotations lock onto bright regions. OPTICS (4) — CRT, Glass, Frost, Phosphor. Cathode-ray scanlines with an RGB shadow mask, patterned glass refraction, hammered privacy glass, and phosphor glow bloom. PRINT (5) — Risograph, Cyanotype, Paper Stock, Watercolor, Ink Wash. CMYK riso overprint on rotated halftone screens, 1840s blueprint chemistry, fiber-flecked stock, wet-edge washes, sumi-e tonal steps. DITHER (1) — 1-Bit Dither. Six kernels including Floyd-Steinberg, Atkinson and Bayer, crushing 256 shades down to 0 and 1 — in mono, four duotone palettes, or per-channel RGB. CHARS (1) — ASCII Art. Rebuild a whole scene out of typography, across five character sets: ASCII, Blocks, Mixed, Stipple, Braille. GRID (2) — Mosaic, Hatch. Five cell shapes (Pixel, Tile, Stud, Glow, Voxel) and five mark styles (Cross, Facet, Rule, Slant, Dotcross). [Why Break Your Photos?] Because "vintage filter #47" is not a personality. Because glitch is not a bug — it's a feature. Because sometimes the most beautiful thing you can do to a photo is break it. Warning: Side effects may include artistic awakening, filter addiction withdrawal, and an uncontrollable urge to turn every mundane snapshot into an indie zine cover. Your camera roll will never be boring again. Yan is a glitch art photo editor for photographers and digital artists.
