WHAT IS ACID RAIN?
Acid Rain Production is a televised video-art series. It airs on The Peoples Channel and
Durham Access Media, cable access
channels servicing Orange and Durham Counties in
North Carolina. Acid Rain Production is a unique venue for contemporary video work in
which a single video art piece loops consistently for one hour, several times a week, for
one month, on community-based tv stations that reach over a 100,000 households and
businesses in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill region. We hope that through the medium of
television we can successfully link new-media artists to the community at large and bring
about a better understanding of contemporary issues of artistic practice and social
concern. For questions or comments concerning this program please contact
