Nam June Paik is presented as a seminal figure in the emergence of video art; he experimented with television in Germany and Japan, moved to New York in 1964, and with Shuya Abe developed the Video Synthesizer in 1970, producing works such as the T.

He links the medium to Allegheny College and the Experimental Television Center's temporary presence in Meadville, noting that Allegheny will briefly gain television-producing capability. He argues for decentralization through portable recording-and-playback hardware and independent regional centers to counter network and cable control, and describes videotape's perceptual and affective effects.
