"I don't find the resulting distorted audio very interesting ... it sounds like a overdriven amplifier having trouble with a broken low-quality speaker"
Often the kind of malfunctioning or low-quality processing that plagues engineers is embraced by creative types. There are countless examples in the audio world over the last half-century - look at the popularity of overdrive pedals and bitcrushers and analog delay effects in a world where pristine amplification and effects processing is possible on affordable consumer-grade equipment. There's a similarity to many of the changes that audio editing and processing underwent in the early 2000s, as tools of the trade become more widely available.

But using it as part of a larger visual palette, and it's like a new kind of seasoning. e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMYIWSGlT54 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMYIWSGlT54
