<p>Tomorrow, around 7pm EST, May 23rd, I'll mark the 25th year since
my film <strong>"Wax or the Discovery of Television Among the
Bees" </strong>[81:00, 1991] was the first film streamed over
the Internet [NYTimes, 1993: <a

Among many things, it was a movie made about the first Iraq War,
and drones, before either existed. By similar coincidence, the
hero Jacob Maker ended the movie by talking through a brand new
two-way television, thus speaking of the internet while being the
first through it as a video object, all in a movie about the
reality of television. Which leads us to today, the future of the
past. <br>

When <strong>Wax</strong> went on the mbone [multimedia backbone]
that night, there were two VHS machines at the source... one
playing the color video into an internet-connected computer, and
another recording the black and white output from that computer. I
will attempt to play that recording for the first time on this
livestream, a two-way time echo of the inevitable past of the
future, live! I will also attempt to read and reply to your
comments, exactly as then. Additional time sensitive notes on this
quickly approaching event can be read at <a

<p>In any case, you might know Wax from Waxweb, which was one of the
first online artist sites, also 1993. But first there was the
movie, then there was the mbone, and then there was the web.<br>
</p>
<p>and if you miss the 'cast, well, that's how television works. As
you have forgotten. See you in all the worlds, again, in reverse!<br>
