As Erica Levin details in \u003ci\u003eThe Channeled Image\u003c\/i\u003e, groundbreaking artists like Carolee Schneemann, Bruce Conner, Stan VanDerBeek, and Aldo Tambellini developed a new formal language that foregrounded television’s mediation of a social order defined by the interests of the state, capital, and cultural elites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe resulting works introduced immersive projection environments, live screening events, videographic distortion, and televised happenings, among other forms. For Levin, “the channeled image” names a constellation of practices that mimic, simulate, or disrupt the appearance of televised images. This formal experimentation influenced new modes of installation, which took shape as multi-channel displays and mobile or split-screen projections, or in some cases, experimental work produced for broadcast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAbove all, this book asks how artistic experimentation with televisual forms was shaped by events that challenged television broadcasters’ claims to authority, events that set the stage for struggles over how access to the airwaves would be negotiated in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47464307392748,"sku":"9780226821955","price":61.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780226821955-the-channeled-image.jpg?v=1775046003"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/erica-levin.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
