    The creative process of video art pioneers Steina and Woody Vasulka are a case study in media archaeology, a recent field that blends new film studies and media theory. Media archaeological thinking is threaded by many branches of media and cultural theory including Foucault’s archaeology of knowledge and Benjamin’s dialectical image. This thesis examines the time period from 1969-1978 in which the Vasulkas were mainly working out of Buffalo, New York. During this time, the Vasulkas worked in collaboration with engineers to develop video processing tools such as the Multi-Level Keyer and the Rutt/Etra Scan Processor which allowed them to investigate the medium of video structurally. In treating the electronic image as architectural space made up of time and energy, the Vasulkas were able to expand aesthetic notions of the electronic image.
