1975–1980
Printmaking, Video, Cybernetics, and Phenomenology

As print studios absorbed video and early computer imaging, the flatbed press became a site of exchange—ink meeting pixels, paper registering signal and noise. Images no longer belonged solely to the hand or the eye, but emerged through feedback between body, machine, and surface. Perception no longer private but circulated, McLuhan murmuring that the medium is already speaking while Wiener’s feedback loops tighten, Merleau-Ponty reminding the body it is still the interface, hands thinking through screens, images aware they are being felt in new ways. Perception shifted from a private act to a mediated condition, where making and sensing unfolded together, and images carried an awareness of how they were produced, transmitted, and physically felt.
