Experimental Half-Hour is a television show that started in August of 2010 in Portland, Oregon as a platform to broadcasts local and international musicians and performance artists, dancers, and comedians.
Our collaborators include established professional artists as well as new performers that excite and inspire us.
In addition to broadcasting locally and maintaining a free Internet archive,
we engage with the community by curating live multimedia performances,
screening episodes at local festivals,
and strongly encouraging public participation at tapings.
Experimental Half-Hour facilitates a connection between artists and the often underestimated resources our community provides to create, document, and share work with others.
Conceptual growth is stimulated by access to a broad range of new and old technologies ranging from live video broadcasting to glitch-based homemade video effects "stomp" boxes.
A video might be shot in HD, then edited on an analogue mixer. A visual artist might have the opportunity to play with a green screen for the first time or even experiment with the video medium.
Since the start of 2013 the show has relocated
to the land of television,
Los Angeles
But unfortunately in 2007 the state of California passed a law that would change the
future of public access
In doing so, the show has become more self-reliant due to the lack of public resources
available.
In Portland where its more for the people and by the people, it was easy for a dedicated person to host a live televised event with professional video equipment, but in Los
Angeles due to the dismantling of cable access this is unavailable without renting or buying
equipment.
We are currently looking into live video streaming
The future of television.

Video ArtTerm used to describe art that uses both the
apparatus and processes of television and video. It can take many forms: recordings that are broadcast, viewed in galleries or other venues, or distributed as tapes or discs; sculptural installations, which may incorporate one or more television receivers or monitors, displaying ‘live’ or recorded images and sound; and performances in which video representations are included.
