Description

Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) hosted a panel and screening in conjunction with the exhibition Videofreex: The Art of Guerrilla Television at The Dorsky Museum, organized by Andrew Ingall. This event emphazized the bold interdisciplinary nature of the collective's projects, with a special focus on Videofreex founding member David Cort, who edited several of his key video works at EAI in the 1970s. Selections of Cort's video work, representing his use of video as an interactive tool for electronic imaging exploration, provided a catalyst for the panel discussion. Panelists included original Videofreex member Davidson Gigliotti, artist and Cort collaborator Shalom Gorewitz, and LoVid, a media art duo who represent a new generation of artists who have been influenced by the interdisciplinary practices of Cort and the Videofreex.
