He is considered the father of video art and was one of the formative members of the Fluxus movement. In new technologies, Nam June Paik saw opportunities that, unchallenged, could become threats. He had already predicted the digital revolution in the 1970s. At the heart of his work is the television and how we interact with it and the video as a medium for democracy. A homage to a visionary. Helga-Mari Steininger
