Make a new wiki page just for your postings, follow instructions from class.

Visit Museum of American Art (in same building as the portrait gallery) and pick one of these four videos located in the moving images area: Bruce Nauman-Slow Angle Walk, Peter Campus-3 Transitions, Steina and Woody Vasulka- selections, or Joan Jonas-Vertical Roll. Answer this question in a post of at least 250 words, on your wiki page:

How does your chosen artist use the inherent attributes of their chosen technology (in this case, video) to create meaning in this work?

Think about the process of making and what the cultural ramifications of the technology they are using bring to the work.

With your text, post an image of you standing next to the monitor in the museum.
