Digital Distortion

Digital distortion refers to the alteration or degradation of information as it is processed, stored, or transmitted in digital formats. This can occur through various means, such as compression, data loss, or errors during transfer. For example, when a song is compressed to save space, some sound quality may be sacrificed, creating a distorted version of the original. Similarly, when images are resized, they might lose clarity or detail. Essentially, digital distortion affects how accurately digital representations reflect their original sources, potentially impacting our experience and understanding of media.
