I found Paik’s TV Garden intriguing because I say it as a future
prediction of what the worlds was going to be like today. With every year comes
the mentality that we want the next best thing, the top of the line as far as
technology gets better and better. But we just throw away last year’s model. Creating
huge stockpiles of old technology. I feel TV Garden is representative of that,
it is reminiscent of a TV graveyard/ junkyard with years of overgrowth because it
gets overlooked by the public and viewed as worthless.
Vostell’s Electronic Decollage was chaotic. There was so
much going on at once. Which I believe was the point he was trying to convey. Just
as the TV industry started to create shows and programs they were distractions
from what was really going on in the world. Just as these monstrosities of TV
robot collages distract you from the screen that you are trying to view.
