  • Introduction to The 5th International Video Exchange Directory Collections

    The Satellite Video Exchange Society of Vancouver published an annual directory listing about 500 individuals and groups involved with small-format video; the catalog was organized internationally by region, compiled from contributor information, initially distributed free and, by 1979, subject to a minimal charge for non-listed parties. The society also published Video Guide and maintained the Video Inn library; editorial credits include Andy Harvey, Shawn Preus and Paul Wong (1977) and Mary Ready (1979), with an introduction by Paul Wong. The text outlines the society's rationale for non-commercial videotape exchange, types of exchange, copyright limitations and free circulation practices; Video Inn has 1/2" European Sony VTRs and has engaged in video exchange since 1973.

    Beyond Video: The Media Alliance Directory I traces the development of video art from the Sony portapak's U.S. arrival circa 1965 through the 1980s; it records early practitioners, guerrilla collectives and nonprofit centers including Young Filmakers/Video Arts (1968) and Global Village (1969). By 1972 at least nine New York organizations supported subsidized production, training and post-production, and academic workshops expanded in the 1970s. AIVF (1974) and ATN (1976) organized around cable and publishing; Anthology Film Archives received tape‑preservation funding in 1983 to transfer late‑1960s–early‑1970s tapes to 3/4" cassettes, and the 1980s brought broader exhibition venues.
