  • Tracking Video Art: Image Processing as a Genre Bibliography

    Lucinda Furlong, Curatorial Assistant in the Whitney Museum of American Art's Film and Video Department, traces the emergence of image processing as a distinct video-art genre from the late 1960s through the mid-1970s; she examines terminology, aesthetic debates, and the modernist and formalist impulses that shaped the work. The text documents early tool-builders and artists (Dan Sandin, Steina and Woody Vasulka, Eric Siegel, Stephen Beck, Bill Etra, Steve Rutt, Nam June Paik and Shuya Abe), key technologies (video synthesizers, Sandin Image Processor, Rutt-Etra, Moog, Z-Grass), institutions (Whitney Museum, Radical Software, Experimental Television Center, SUNY Binghamton, University of Illinois Circle Campus) and funding developments including a $50,000 NYSCA grant to Hocking's Center.
