DR. TV

RECORDING, PAL, 4:3, VHS, COLOR, SOUND, 1992

Recording of a TV performance (as opposed to a video performance).

Three TV monitors receiving live broadcasts from three television stations via analog antennas are arranged in a dark room, moved around, the antenna signal is disrupted and interrupted, the power supply is cut off, the video image is destabilized, and parts of a book are read aloud.

The video and audio signal from the video camera was recorded and simultaneously transmitted to an adjacent room with an audience. Using a video mixer, the video signal was altered to appear as a negative, like an X-ray.
