  • Two Texts Concerning Portable Video Tools

    Two short texts by Sherry Miller Hocking document the emergence of portable video and a chronology of portable videotape recorders; Early Portable Video (April 1992) describes Sony's mid-1960s 1/2" CV systems and portapak technology including a black-and-white camera, separate battery-operated 1/2" recorder, ten-pin cable, external microphone, 20-minute tape capacity and helical-scan recording, and notes artist and activist use and foundation support from the Rockefeller Foundation and the New York State Council on the Arts. The chronology (1999) lists 1965–1969 product introductions (Sony CV-2000, CV-2400, CV-2100/2200), EIAJ 1/2" standards in 1969, and Nam June Paik's early use in New York; appended material illustrates the CV portapak and product brochures.
