Overview
Video art encompasses uses of video as part of a conceptual installation, as well as videographic single-channel tape recordings. Some practitioners of video art sought to produce visual effects using synthesizers, while others were more inclined to build sculptures or stage events involving televisions. The variety of ways it has impacted the arts are a reflection of the vitality and creative experimentalism of the 1970s.Resources
