“The urge to share unique discoveries”

Woody: ”Steina has always been an avid collector of videotapes. Very early she was engaged in personal tape exchanges, a habit she still keeps. During the early days the urge to share unique discoveries drove people into almost compulsory communication — video-letters, ‘how to’s’, and ‘look what I’m doing’ were common, almost a genre.”
