EZTV ( www.eztvmedia.com ), a 25 year-old, artist-run digital media center in Los Angles, has been in the process of creating an online museum about it's history and its collaborations, exhibitions and lectures conducted by various digital artists over the last quarter-century, including exhibitions by digital art pioneers David Em and Tony Longson, art historian and curator Patric Prince and lectures by Peter Lunenfield, Paul Brown, and the activities of a group of LA based artists and arts activists called the LA Digilantes ( including Victor Acevedo and Michael Wright), who self-produced a variety of digital art exhibitions in Southern California. A small selection of additional digital artists from EZTV's history include Jennifer Steinkamp, Rebecca Allen, Ron Hays, Vibeke Sorenson, Electronic Cafe International, Karl Sims and Ed Emshwiller. In addition to a long-standing tradition of exhibiting computer graphics, it was also very interested in how the ever-improving digital tools could facilitate the creation of poetry, theater and narrative filmmaking. Therefore, artists such as filmmakers Jean Luc-Goddard and Robert Altman, philosopher Dr. Timothy Leary, astrophysicist an musician Dr. Fiorella Terenzi and writer such as Alan Ginsberg and Charles Bukowski are also among the many hundreds of artists who collaborated or exhibited with EZTV and will be included in the online digital museum. EZTV also served a s a frequent home to LA-SIGGRAPH's monthly meetings throughout the 1980's and early 1990's, and still occaionally hosts LA-SIGGRAPH events produced by thier arts sub-committe.

The EZTV online museum project, was begun in collaboration with Adobe Software Educational consultant Pat Johnson, with some help from Adobe and the initial site designs were created by Red Giant, the digital art honors program at the Art Institute of California. It will take approximately two years to complete the museum and any and all EZTV alumni ( exhibited artists, employees, collaborators, etc. ) are strongly urged to contribute to this online archive with images, notes, etc., about their EZTV experiences.

Although EZTV has been honored to exhibit some of the early digital pioneers, such as David Em and Tony Longson, it's own contribution to digital art history will most rightly be in the period of the 1980's when artists at EZTV began experimenting with combining their own digital music with video and computer graphics, to create early examples of desktop video. Some of these projects were among the first desktop productions given cricital press attention by major film critics in Los Angeles, and are part of that branch of the digital art history concerning itself with multimedia and digital video.
