A dedicated plugin like "Glitchify" automates what used to take hours of manual layering, expression writing, and fractal noise manipulation. It offers one-click "VHS tracking errors," RGB split displacement, and wave warp distortions. The plugin commodifies the unpredictable, packaging the "aesthetic of error" into a slider that reads 0% to 100%.
