We don't shred digital images in RAM in that way, but we can scan & reconstruct physical images that have been shredded or torn.
You can paste together possible scenes to construct side-scrolling game scenery in realtime.
By applying a few insights we can phase one image into a hole that is in another image. This is similar to randomizing an array by creating a second array with random values, then sorting them in tandem, except we use the TSP with expected weightings.
There are lots of use cases for this.

If you dump a computer's RAM e.g. in a forensic setting, you might attain such a state. Same goes for file systems as well as the wear leveling layer of SSDs.
