  6. Driven to Abstraction Bibliography

    Art forms have life spans, beginnings, middles and ends.

First there was television. As a child growing up in th…

  8. Early Video Art: A look at a Controversial History from Diverse Practices: A Critical Reader on British Video Art , edited by Julia Knight Bibliography

    David Hall critiques early British video art historiography, arguing that later accounts have oversimplified and misrepresented the aims of the earliest practitioners; he emphasises their engagement with television technology, conceptualist aims, minimal broadcaster support and cautious funding bodies, and their pursuit of broader cultural audiences rather than gallery assimilation. Published in Diverse Practices: A Critical Reader on British Video Art, ed. Julia Knight, Arts Council of England and John Libbey, 1996, the essay is based on Before the Concrete Sets (first published in And: Journal of Art, No 26, 1991) and the London Video Access distribution catalogue, 1991, and cites Ross (1973), Marshall (1985) and Hall's own 1975–76 writings.

  17. Electronic Linguistics Bibliography

    Taka Iimura, a Japanese film and video artist, investigates perception of time and duration in film; his videotapes probing television's basic vocabulary were screened at the Long Beach Post-Production Studio. He uses a closed-circuit, self-referential video system—routing a VTR camera image through a monitor—and a VTR unit routed through a switcher with two cameras and two monitors to examine structural relationships of language. Beginning in 1976 he adopted a linguistic model where the subject/camera (I) can see the object/monitor (you); LA video artist Norman Yonemoto described the work as educational lessons in a visual language.

  19. Electronic Visions Bibliography

    John Minkowsky introduces the Electronic Visions catalog and traces television from mid-1940s commercial dominance to its adoption by artists and galleries two decades later; he cites small-format portable video equipment (forerunners of BETA and VHS), an art-world shift from unique objects to process, and an emphasis on innovation. He parallels television with the post-war digital computer, notes early machines filled laboratories and universities, quotes Gene Youngblood on electronic communication, and states that the fusion of art and technology, when sensitively guided, is the future of art.
