Circle Reader Card No 104 [[image of Victor Ancona]] Video Art VICTOR ANCONA AVANT-GARDE ART: Soho TV Rides High Since artists and some special-interests groups feel that the requirements of broadcast television-whether commercial or public-are too restrictive, cable tv, with its numerous channels, provides a natural outlet for diversity in programming. Cablecasting helps to open wide the communications possibilities for television. It gives tv options similar to those available in other media such as print and performance. Soho Television, a project of the Artists Television Network (ATN) in New York City, was quick to take advantage of this opportunity. The Artists Television Network programmed and aired in the 1977-78 season what is claimed to be the only regularly scheduled series of tapes about avant-garde art ever to appear on cable. I reported on the Soho Television series in Videography in August, 1978. A great deal of curiosity about the project exists because of its radical content and format. As a result, ATN was able to receive a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to research, develop and report on "a cooperative cable network of arts programming from the Soho area through Manhattan Cable Television." The final report on this project is a paper authored by Leandra Strobing, director of the ATN research and development project. Dedicated to James Day, former WNET president now teaching at Brooklyn College, the "R&D" paper is a comprehensive tome: five chapters replete with photographs, tables and exhibits, a bibliography, and over 50 pages of appendices. This heavy volume is a potpourri of ATN history, demographics for the 26-block Soho area of Manhattan, resource materials, survey results, and two different proposals for a mobile van. In preparing her report, Leandra Strobing solicited the support of cable companies, among them Home Box Office and Warner Cable (which owns Qube, the two-way system in Columbus, Oh.). When I first interviewed Jamie Davidovich, chairman and president of ATN, I suggested testing Soho Television programming Victor Ancona is the roving video art editor for this magazine.
