I always take the Shocked version and blend it back with the original image using ImageBlender... My brain can relate to that method a bit easier.
Time to vote for April Image of the Month (IotM). All MobiTog members are eligible to vote. Voting ends May 7.
I tried something a bit different as I do not have ArtStudio.
The image was split and shocked and then had the canvas resized exactly as outlines by Nick.
Well almost, I set the background canvas colour of each resized piece to black.
My reassembly took place in Layover.
The pieces were then loaded as layers in Layover.
I set the blending mode for each layer to Screen and moved the slider all the way over to the left.
This had the desired effect (I think).
I would love some feedback from the more technically minded app'ers out there (a.k.a. Nick) to please let me know what they think of this amendment to the process.
Note: Ack, sis and poofey I just noticed that Layover resized the output down to 1024 x 1024 from 1536 x 1536.
Here are the two images:

Thank you, Nick! I wish the developers of ShockMyPic could push their coding a little further, and offer more resolution. This is the best work-around I have encountered. I have been using the Effects >DeNoise >Anti-Alias option in iColorama with ShockMyPic, but it is still coarse. Great thinking, articulate tutorial, and it is generous of you to take the time to share your discovery!
I think this is great. I have to try it. I blend SHOCK and SEGMENTIX IMAGES together on Multiply
I wonder if this process will have similar results
