In the 1960s and 1970s, counter-culture video collectives extended the role of the underground press to new communication technologies. In 1970, Shamberg co-founded a video collective called Raindance Corporation, which published a newspaper-magazine called Radical Software. Raindance Corporation later became TVTV, or Top Value Television. Shamberg and his first wife Megan Williams were founding members of TVTV. The collective believed new technology could effect social change. An example was Shamberg's work on ''In Hiding: A Conversation with Abbie Hoffman'', broadcast on Public-access television station WNET/13 in May 1975.〔 Shamberg described his approach as "guerrilla television" (the title of his 1971 book) because, despite its strategies and tactics similar to warfare, guerrilla television is non-violent and he saw it as a means to break through the barriers imposed by broadcast television, which he called beast television. His TVTV group's documentary ''Lord of the Universe'', 1974, won a DuPont-Columbia Award in 1975.〔 Journalism School, Columbia University.

Shamberg is a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, MO. 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「Michael Shamberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
