The Experimental Television Center (ETC) (1969-2011) was a nonprofit Electronic and Media Art center located in upstate New York. ==History== The Experimental Television Center (ETC) was founded in 1971 by Ralph Hocking. The center was the result of the expansion of a media access program that Ralph Hocking established as Professor of video and computer art at Binghamton University in 1969. Some years later, in July 1979, the center was moved from Binghamton to Owego, New York. The ETC, directed by Ralph Hocking and Sherry Miller Hocking, was devoted to the exploration and development of potential uses of new technology in video and media art. Artists, social, cultural and educational organizations and also interested individuals worked in innovative image processing tools, using all the equipment and the studio facilities with no charge.〔 (Archived ) by Internet Archive on 9 February 2015.〕 The Center for more than 40 years had provided a residency program 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.vasulka.org/archive/ExhTWO/ExpTeleCenter/general.pdf )(Archived ) by Internet Archive on 14 March 2002.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.experimentaltvcenter.org/residency-program )(Archived ) by Internet Archive on 22 March 2015.〕 that emphasized the aesthetic experimentation of electronic and media art though new technologies. Artists from around the world and students were trained and worked with rare and unique analog and digital devices for creating video artworks and had access to the media art library of the center. For Ralph Hocking, the center was "a learning place (), where artists and engineers worked in tandem".〔 (Archived ) by Internet Archive on 19 September 2013. 〕 In addition, the center organized exhibitions, workshops, cultural events, conferences and provided grand programs to support artists and non-profit media art programs. In 2011, the Residency and Grants Program of the center was closed. The center’s media arts collection has since been archived and housed at the Rose Goldsen Archive of New Media Art through Cornell University Library’s Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://hdl.handle.net/1813.001/8946249 )() by Internet Archive on 20 May 2015.〕 The center, through the Video History Project,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.experimentaltvcenter.org/video-history-project ) (Archived ) by Internet Archive on 22 March 2015. 〕 an on-going research initiative, offers to the public a wealth of often unpublished documents related to the early historical development of video art and community television, with a particular focus on upstate New York during the period 1968-1980.〔(Archived ) by Internet Archive on 18 December 2011.〕 Since the closing of ETC’s art residency program in 2011, Signal Culture -a new nonprofit media arts organization located in the same small village of Owego- aims to support the creation of experimental media.〔 (Archived ) by Internet Archive on 8 December 2014. 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Experimental Television Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
