dc.description.abstract | This presentation will encompass Lichty’s research in the history of Slow Scan TV art and performance, a genre
introduced at the first MAH conference in 2005. Over the past ten years, Lichty has acquired and learned the
operation of the original SSTV equipment, sought out the original artists (Bull, Adrian, Hocking, Oppenheim), created
new work. From this, a media archaeology based both on “unearthing” of period equipment and creating new work
with the equipment as an “applied” Media Archeology (Parikka). The presentation will conclude with the discussion of
the Open SSTV Archive for global MAH research. | |
