Public Space LAUNCH EVENT on Seven Continents
Good Morning 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.
