Rosa Menkman is a Dutch artist and researcher of resolutions with a special focus on glitches, resolutions, cyclopes 👁️, impossible rainbows 🌈, unnamed colours 🎨 and IANA, the goddess of staircases 𓊍

In her work, she focuses on noise artifacts that result from accidents in both analogue and digital media that offer insights into their otherwise black boxed modes of operation. As a compendium to this research, she published the Glitch Moment/um (INC, 2011), a little book on the exploitation and popularization of glitch artifacts.

Menkman developed and highlighted the politics of resolution setting further in a second book titled Beyond Resolution (i.R.D., 2020). In this book, she describes how the standardization of resolutions is not only a process that promotes efficiency, order and functionality, but also involves compromises and the obfuscation of alternative possibilities.
