Experimental Television Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Experimental Television Center is a one of a kind Video Art production studio in Owego, New York. The studio is designed to simultaneously facillitate both live studio performance and live video editing, much like a broadcast television studio.
The studio was founded in 1971 as an outgrowth of a media access program established by Ralph Hocking at Binghamton University in 1969. Today the studio is affiliated with Alfred University's media arts program, with which it shares instructors. The Center provides support and services to the Video Art community by offering artist residencies to established and emerging Video Artists as well as an annual international student artist residency each summer.
The studio includes several invaluable and/or one of a kind pieces of video processing equipment, such as a custom Dave Jones Colorizer, a Design Lab Frame Buffer, a Deupfer Synthesizer, a Dave Jones custom 8 Channel Video Sequencer, the Paik/Abe Raster Synthesizer or 'Wobulator' and a custom Dan Sandin Sandin Image Processor.
Some notable artists who have held residencies at the center are Nam June Paik, Gary Hill and Kristin Lucas.
