Video art is special type of contemporary media art which relies on moving pictures and comprises video and/or audio data. The Images in a video art are overlapping, changing and transforming to abstract objects. The movement is preserved, but filtered and mixed with noise & sound, that creates loops & bubbles. These artworks are experimental and open for dialogue, have a large number of interpretations, reviewing contemporary life and modernity and restoring the scene of modern history.

Existing in realities of "intuitive interfaces", a video art is treated to the fields of arts, closest to the modern viewer.

The main thesis statement of this lecture was "To watch a video art, it is necessary to have a video eye".
