Someone once posted instructions on how to purposefully but randomly distort images, kinda similar to this image, but I can't remember exactly how, nor find the instructions again.
Was wondering if anyone might know.
From what I can vaguely recall, you had to open the image in photoshop, convert it to a particular type, then open it in notepad and either add or delete a small section of text.
The key was the particular image type though.

Have you ever tried this website?

Not exactly what I was looking for, but pretty neat. Actually managed to stumble on the keyword I was looking for, databending.
Though the text editing method isnt working for me at the moment. Thank you though!

Use a hex editor like HxD

databending is mostly random it could take you ages to get the same effect
the effect is called chromatic aberration or rgb split and it can be done in lots of ways depending of what software do you have, either photoshop rgb channels, magic bullet looks chromatic aberration + glow/diffusion/noise filters or after effects twitch plugin using the presets for chaos/lights sounds difficult but it shouldn't take longer than 5 mins unlike databending.
if you post the image you want to distort i'll might be able to do it for you.

I wasn't going for anything specific, I like the random effects, but I prefer minimal bending, mostly just colour and slightly warped

Do you have a Linux machine, or have/know Perl?

I did this with a couple of lines of Perl. You're not going to get the wavy interference pattern with digital glitching -- that's analog effect.
Github has a shit ton of glitching tools, but the ones I looked at were in Javascript, and I couldn't figure out how they're run.
This site has a pretty comprehensive list of tools:

I recall something like renaming the image to another format, opening it in audacity and applying filters or fucking with it, exporting, then changing it back to jpg or whatever.
