WorldHacked.img is a spinoff video of Trampuž's master's thesis practical work (titled WorldCrash.img) from 2019. WorldHacked.img was created in 2022, independently but parallel to the exhibition of WorldCrash.img as part of the Only The End is Within Our Grasp exhibition. Both the theory and practice of Trampuž's master's thesis, awarded by ALUO and titled Error as a Transformative Method, question and reverse the perception of error. Trampuž takes error as a tool that can be used to discover new territories and achieve completely unexpected goals, instead of treating it as an unwanted deviation. The error (deviation from the path to the set goal) is placed as the central element of the method (procedure for achieving a specific goal). By provoking error within a functioning system, Trampuž ensures a result and manages the paradox that arises from methodizing error. He focuses on technological error, glitches that occur when a digital image file is corrupted - in this case, the corrupted code (text) in form of which the image is stored. If we intentionally manipulate the code of one file by gradually replacing it with the code of another file, we can observe how an animated transformation from one image to another occurs through error and glitch. WorldHacked.img thematically deals with the impact of technology on society, the impact of our society on our environment and nature, and ultimately, back onto ourselves. It shows captured footage from unsecured web cameras, which transitions in an animated way as previously described. The sound was captured through amateur radio listening to AM radio frequencies.
