For the first time, VDB’s vast collections of video art, experimental film, documentaries, and artist interviews are available to stream on a subscription basis from a new, bespoke platform for higher educational institutions around the world. Launched in 2024, Video Data Bank's Educational Streaming Platform offers licenses for individual titles and curated compilations, as well as subscription access to large portions of the VDB collection, up to 2500+ titles. The streaming platform uses Single Sign-On (SSO) technology via identity provider (IdP) or OpenAthens, as well as IP range recognition, to integrate the service with institutional credentials for seamless access on and off campus. The platform provides an ever-growing set of MARC records and caption files for each VDB title. The site is mobile-friendly with an adaptive video player.

On Art and Artists Interview Series
Hosted and produced an ongoing oral history video project begun in the 1970s, comprised of long-form interviews with renowned artists and scholars. Operated camera, sound, lighting, and oversaw digital editing.
On Art and Artists is a unique collection of interviews and portraits of artists, musicians, performers, architects, theorists, and critics, spanning 1970 to the present. The OAA collection represents five decades of producing and acquiring interviews by the Video Data Bank, and features more than 400 available titles, of which at least half are interviews produced by the Video Data Bank and its co-founders Lyn Blumenthal and Kate Horsfield. The collection has grown into an archive of considerable cultural and historical significance, comprised of interviews and portraits of some of the most noteworthy contemporary practitioners and thinkers from the U.S. and beyond. Originally conceptualized as a tool by which to provide art students with insight into their chosen creative fields, and the methodologies and processes available to them, the OAA collection now stands as a compelling testimony for wider audiences as to what it means to be an artist.
From Abramović to Wodiczko, the On Art and Artists collection offers those interested in art history, contemporary practices and education a rare and rewarding study guide, offering insight into the lives, practices and methodologies of some of the most vital practitioners of our time.
