The essays address issues pertaining to art and technology and taken together define a \"video culture\" as it is determined by the distinctive features of the medium and the forces acting on it's history.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethis is an excellent, and quite prescient, series of essays related primarily to video art, but also to a burgeoning \"video culture\" as the medium of expressive culture of the late 80s. Contributors include (but are not limited to) Walter Benjamin, Bertolt Brecht, Jack Burnham, David Ross, Nam June Paik and a great introductory essay by John Hanhardt, former head of the Whitney's Film and Video Department. The bibliography included is also an invaluable resource for those diving into \"video culture.\" Recommended. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alarum Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49168540041524,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4895\/3652\/files\/PXL_20260620_134019964.jpg?v=1782061921","url":"https:\/\/alarumbooks.com\/products\/video-culture-a-critical-investigation-ed-john-hanhardt","provider":"Alarum Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
