  14. The Politics of Video Memory: Electronic Erasures and Inscriptions from Resolutions: Contemporary Video Practices Bibliography

    Essay examines how photographic, cinematic and television-video images produce personal and cultural memory while simultaneously enabling forms of forgetting; it argues that television's live flow and videotape materiality complicate preservation and historical status. It surveys independent video practices and collectives (Videofreex, Raindance) and analyzes works by Woody Vasulka (Art of Memory, 1987), Rea Tajiri (History and Memory, 1991), Janice Tanaka (Memories from the Department of Amnesia, 1990; Who's Going to Pay for These Donuts, Anyway?, 1992) and Jeanne Finley (Nomads at the 25 Door, 1991), addressing Japanese American internment, Yugoslavia (1990), televised events (Challenger, Tiananmen, Berlin Wall) and videotape deterioration. The artists use videotape, found footage and reenactment to create counter-memories, bear witness and contest national narratives.
