>>6320061Never use databending alone, you will obviously get a much better result if you refine it in PS afterwards. The only real databending I use is pixel sorting, which you can find code for it in Processing language or you could get a simple script such as ASDF pixel sorter.
I usually data bend and take the bent image over the original image and blend it into the first image so it is still recognizable. Blending can be done using a combination of layer blend modes, layer modification (exposure, levels, etc), or even channel modification. Then it's a matter of using your PS tools to make the most out of how it looks. Experiment and see what your tools do. Also, try filter>distort>wave and set to square.
