TV Static Snow
The grainy black and white noise of an analog television with no signal. Mixed with a picture, it simulates poor reception and is a classic horror and sci-fi visual.

Why it happens
Random brightness values are generated for every pixel and blended with the image, with their strength controlling how much of the picture survives.
