520 The National Center for Experiments in Television was the
first of the TV labs established in the late 1960s. In its
earliest conception, the NCET was the Experimental TV
Project, housed at KQED. The principal impetus behind the
Experimental TV Project was to provide equipment access to
artists who would explore the material crux of this overly
commercialized medium, simultaneously developing
alternative visual languages. From September 14, 2000 to
November 15, 2000, the Pacific Film Archive exhibited
video artifacts from the National Center for Experiments
in Television (NCET). The centerpiece of Videospace was
Don Hallock's 1973 video installation The Videola.
Originally exhibited at SFMOMA, Hallock's video sculpture
is a large horizontal cone made of reflecting mylar. When
a monitor is placed at the small end of the cone, the
image emitted is transformed into a luminous orb. The
kaleidoscopic effect is heightened by The Videola's size--
yhe depth of the cone is eight feet, the large aperture
approximately five feet across. What the audience
encounters is a prismatic, ever-changing sphere. The
Videola emphasizes an important aspect of the NCET's
electronic explorations, that of encouraging visual
pleasure from the primal materials of the medium.
