Abstract or Description

Seymour, Benedict. 2017. Dead the Ends [Film] In: TESTCARD, a 24 hour programme of artists moving-image online, 24-25 September 2022. [Broadcast]

TESTCARD was a programme of artists moving-image that takes the format of a 24-hour TV variety show which included a combination of live and pre-recorded material to draw on the history of radical and public broadcasting, open publishing and transmission. The first TESTCARD event took the model of mid-late 1990’s and early 2000s popular TV variety programmes like ‘MTV’, ‘Diggit’, ‘TV with Ray Cathode’ and ‘Live and Kicking’, to create a single streamed event that counters the culture of on demand content and engaged in the history of artists' DIY broadcasting and transmission projects including TVX/London Art Lab, Paper Tiger TV,  Radio Anti and Convex TV.

TESTCARD was developed by Nastassja Simensky and Anneke Kampman, and made possible with support from LAHP, Primary, Jim Brouwer, Nicolas Helm-Grovas, Hugh Nicholson, Sophia Simensky and Alison Lloyd. Testcard – 24 hour video broadcast, streaming Saturday 24 through Sunday 25 September 2022…
