There is a very famous case in Japan, of a children's anime which created
seizures in children; later it was shown on a newscast and even more
people had them. I've always had to be careful with my own work which has
flickered at times. - Alan

I wouldn't have thought of that either but stripes moving at
speed will
flash. This is like a car driving through the shadows cast by
tree

You've created art that is resistant to media distribution.
In 2016.
That's awesome!
And potential problems are identified by machine -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harding_test
Which makes this an example of algorithmic critique as well.
So to answer your question - more energetic examples of
glitch/new media
would need a certificate. I wonder if institutions that collect
such
art have access to Harding testing?
