In 1968, in a report to the Rockefeller Foundation during a residency at SUNY Stony Brook, Nam June Paik argued that 97 percent of all electronic music was not recorded and that “a simple measure would solve the whole problem. An information center for unpublished electronic media should be created.”¹ At the time, this meant such a center would “provide a Xerox copy and a tape copy of musical pieces, at the request of performers, students, and organizers from all over the world.” Convert analog to digital, and the dream lives on, perhaps more vibrant than ever, of a universal database archive, with access to everything by anyone anywhere at any time.

El país
El Banff Centre fue creado en 1933 por la Universidad de Alberta, en la solitaria y nevada inmensidad de las Montañas Rocosas canadienses, para proporcionar a investigadores y artistas un entorno privilegiado para inspirarse y crear.

El centro, originariamente dedicado a las Bellas Artes, se ha ido ampliando incorporando departamentos consagrados a las disciplinas audiovisuales. El más reciente, el Banff Media Institute, centrado en las aplicaciones artísticas de las nuevas tecnologías, cumple 10 años y los celebra con una retrospectiva que analiza este periodo a través de una serie de obras emblemáticas.
A lo largo de esta década, han sido más de 600 los artistas que han participado en las iniciativas del centro y que, gracias a su programa de residencias, se han inspirado en este espectacular enclave y producido obras en sus también espectaculares laboratorios. De ellos, 14 han sido elegidos para la exposición The Art Formerly Known as New Media (El arte antes conocido como new media, en inglés), cuyo título alude al rápido desarrollo del medio y a las diferentes expresiones artísticas en que se ha fragmentado.
