I think perhaps you may find interesting these links about New Aesthetic:
http://www.aaronland.info/weblog/2012/03/13/godhelpus/#sxaesthetic
http://new-aesthetic.tumblr.com/
http://www.wired.com/beyond_the_beyond/2012/04/an-essay-on-the-new-aesthetic/#comments
(An interesting discussion about the topic has just started at CRUMB list.)
Also you may want to have a look at this book review by Rob Myers about the
glitch aesthetics (in the sense of "glitch" as noise, thus "uncontrolled")
http://www.furtherfield.org/features/reviews/glitch-momentum
I would be glad to know your opinions.
Best wishes,
(Ps. I am quite a silent but a dedicated reader in the list.)
