About This Project
Real Television by Victor Velt was first produced as a video art installation piece completed in 1996. As pictured at left, the work is comprised of 15 prints with an inset video monitor for tape playback. This web site version of Real Television includes all 15 original pictures with the video divided into 15 clips saved in the RealVideo format. In addition, this web project includes audio clips and transcripts of the viewer's interviews that were not part of the original installation. |
