Description (in English): 

The Bug is a browser demo presented as a single page of HTML, with CSS, JavaScript, and a Base64 encoded image all part of that one page. It is a trilingual digital poem, with sound, that computationally glitches itself in different ways, transforming the background image, the text, and the music.

Screen shots: 
A screen with glitched English text (random uppercase/lowercase) over a glitched image.
A screen with glitched text, mostly English, over a glitched image.
