SNAP
SHOT OF THE TELEVISION VIEWER
TELEVISION
BROADCAST ON THE R.T.B. NETWORK (BELGIUM)
13 NOVEMBER 1976
After
a series of contrived interruptions due to fictitious technical
difficulties, the artist makes a guest appearance at the end
of a television program and informs the members of the audience
that recent advances in technology will allow him to take
a picture of them at home across the airwaves. After he gives
them a series of instructions about how to pose the television
camera frames the lens of the artist’s camera in close-up
and “click”… the snap shot is made. The
station received over 300 letters from members of the viewing
public asking how to get a copy of their picture!
