  1. In the context of digital images and video the term artifact often refers to one of two things;

    • Pixelisation or other unwanted results caused by over compression (images/video) and/or rapid movement/scene changes (video). You will have seen this yourself on digital TV, youtube or static images.
    • Badly shaped/broken polygons caused by math errors due to hardware faults or geometry errors - this is what you are seeing in DayZ

    The artifacting people are talking about here just means that you are seeing a lot of artifacts as a result of something going 'sproing'.

    For more, google for '3d artifacts' or 'image compression artifacts' etc.
