  1. Experimental Television Center 1971-present

    Experimental Television Center (Owego, New York) is a residency and production organization active since 1971; it hosted annual residency programs, supported over 1,100 artists, and added digital tools such as a third Amiga and the Toaster (1990–91), a Miro non-linear board, and a G4 Mac with nonlinear editing (1996–2000). Works by residents were screened at major institutions including MoMA, the Whitney, and the New Museum; the Center administered Presentation, Finishing and Media Arts Technical Assistance funds and ran the Video History Project, which produced a website (launched 2000) and a Video History conference (Syracuse University, Oct 16–18, 1998). Funding came from NYSCA, NEA, Andy Warhol Foundation, NYFA and others.

  18. Experimental Television Center Studio System Manual - Keying Tools

    Two manual sections from the Experimental Television Center Studio Manual: Keying Process by Matthew Schlanger (c. 1984) and Keyers by Sherry Miller Hocking and Richard Brewster with Peer Bode, Hank Rudolph and Matt Schlanger; both appear in the 1980 and 1986 studio manuals. The text defines keying as mixing two video signals under control of a clip reference, explains synchronization of vidicon tubes/CRTs across 525-line frames and 262.5-line fields and notes a horizontal line frequency of 15,750 Hz. It describes three-input luminance keyers with VCA channels A and B, clip-level thresholds, internal versus external keying, and wipes using an externally synced oscillator.
