Mr. Orwell by Nam June Paik
A 38-minute video documenting
Nam June Paik's live trans-continental musical extravaganza
broadcast between New York and Paris and viewed on television
internationally on January 1, 1984, using satellite technology.
Paik mixed fine art and pop culture, television and electronic
processing, featuring Laurie Anderson, Merce Cunningham, Peter
Gabriel, Joseph Beuys, Salvador Dali, John Cage, and many others.
His vision of an information superhighway and global connectivity
in the 1970s has come to be realized as the Internet.
