is the most comprehensive effort to define independent Asian Pacific media arts and to describe its course from 1970-1990. The words, essays, and statements by the fifty media artists and cultural workers in this book challenge, celebrate, and contradict each other. Over ninety film stills and archival photos from the early 1900s to the 1990s illustrate this volume, designed to be used as a creative sourcebook and as an introductory text.
