(thats me yawl) at this time, these folks created new ways to make Art, Analog Video Art && Digital Art, wit new computers +new computer languages, Glitch Art, games, open source hardware +cyberpsychedelics! Dan Sandin, Tom DeFanti, Phil Morton, Jane Veeder, + Jamie Fenton... my ancestors, my inspirations ~wen i met Jane Veeder (pictured abv wit Phil Morton during their summer Out West in ~1978) i said: im sorry im late! && she said, thats ok, ive only bin wait'N 30 years ;) she also told me the truth: that i had come look'N fir her to find my hystories, my genealogies; my Media Art Hystories, my Media Art Genealogies; that I'd come looking for her to find out where i was from. that's what i told folks on this Glitch Western Wednesday, to explain my process, my search, Out West, on these here Glitch Western trails, to find my ways && to share wit yawl, my cryptocowpokes, how all these ppl came to be here, togethers to make my Glitch Out West i used tools that include: Media Art Hystories; Sandin Image Processor, Analog Computer - Dan Sandin (1971); GRASS GRAphics Symbiosis System, Computer Programming Language - Tom DeFanti (1974); archival footage shot on Sony Video Portapak, the first portable analog video tape recording system (1967), by Jane Veeder && Phil Morton (~1978); Dedicated to my ancestors, most especially Phil Morton, who made all of this possible but never intended it to be this way, && Jamie Fenton, who created Glitch Art in 1978 COPY-IT-RIGHT Glitch Out West - jonCates (2023) https://objkt.com/asset/KT1XDBxZxcyKh...
