The purpose of [PAM] is to increase the visibility of video art, develop a worldwide community for video artists, and to help video artists find opportunities to exhibit their work. The online [PAM] database and community consists of over 1200 video artists (including some writers, curators, and theorists). On perpetualartmachine.com, members create profile pages that can include: galleries of their work, bios, resumes, photos, and any other content they wish to share. Members can make connections with other members, write entries for our forum and blog, and promote their professional and artistic activities through show announcements, calls for work, and by organizing with other members. Members can also "tag" any video in the database with keywords that describe that particular video. The videos are then searchable by their keyword and can be organized into categories. Technical Implementation The [PAM] installation consists of two computers, two touch screen monitors, and a large projection. From one touch screen monitor, the user can choose a keyword from the hundreds that are in our database. Once the user chooses a keyword, the computer searches for all the videos connected to that keyword and displays them in a grid on the second touch screen monitor and on the projection. The user can then press on an individual movie to view it full screen on the monitor and projection. Users can also tag the video is real-time. This method of organizing artworks by keywords and then giving the user the power to decide which artworks to highlight, is meant to challenge curatorial traditions and to make video art more accessible to the general viewer.
