A distortion is the alteration of the original shape of an object, image, sound, waveform or other form of information or representation. Distortion is usually unwanted, and in practice there are many methods employed to minimize it.
The term is often used for the observation or impression as well, as in a distorted view of the world.
In some fields, distortion may be desirable. Such is the case with Electric Guitar distortion, which is the alteration of the sound waveform to add unique characteristics.

∙ 12y agoIt means to alter the proportions of something, making it disproportional although it retains all the same components as the original and in more or less the same order. If you photoshop a photograph of a person to make their lips appear much larger than usual, although they are still clearly lips and are still in the same place lips should be, you have distorted the picture.
