Peter Campus is a seminal figure in the history of electronic media art. Since the early 1970s, Campus has created pioneering video installations, single-channel works and digital still photographs. Influenced by Bruce Nauman's early single-channel video works shown at Castelli Gallery in 1969, Campus began his career as an artist in 1971 with a series of single-channel works called "Dynamic Fields Series." In 1972 he began to show his pioneering video instillations using monitors, live cameras, and projectors without any recording device.
