Glitch It Yourself: Aura Labs Is Live

 

Every Aura Glitch piece begins by breaking something on purpose — a clean image pushed, shifted, and rebuilt until something new falls out of the noise. That process used to live behind the curtain. Now it's yours.

Meet Aura Labs: our free, in-browser glitch studio, running the same engine we use to make the prints. No download. No sign-up to play. Open it and start breaking things.

Three studios, one engine

Aura Labs gives you three ways of working — and you can stack all of them:

• Glitch — channel shifts, data-bending, pixel sorting, scanlines, VHS and CRT decay. The "something's wrong with the signal" look.
• Chroma — duotones, posterization, gradient maps, split-toning. Bold color and light — the part that turns an image into a piece.
• Mirror — symmetry, kaleidoscopes, ripples, crystallize, low-poly. Hypnotic structure out of anything.

Bring your own photo or generate art from scratch, then build in layers — tune opacity, blend modes, and mask an effect to just part of the frame. 50+ effects, live previews, full undo/redo. It all runs in your browser, so your images never leave your device.

Made to go physical

Here's what matters for a phygital brand: when a piece is right, you export it — and it's already built for the real world.

• PNG at print resolution — choose your aspect ratio and size, right up to gallery scale.
• SVG vector — the magic one. Vectors have no pixels to blow out, so they scale to any size with zero loss. A glitch you made on your phone can become a six-foot canvas, a poster, or the front of a hoodie — razor-sharp at every scale.

That vector export is exactly why Aura Labs is the tool behind our prints. What you make in the browser is already ready for the wall or the rack.

Describe it, and watch it build

Stuck on where to start? Signed-in members get an AI assist: type something like "grungy VHS glitch on a faded sunset" and it builds the whole effect stack for you on the canvas — then you take over and dial it in. Save the looks you love and reuse them on any image.

Go break something

Aura Labs is free, and there's no sign-up to dive in. Open it, drop in a photo or hit Generate, and stack until it feels right.

Make something you love? That's literally what we do — we turn digital glitch into physical art. Get in touch and we'll bring it to life.
