description: Throughout its history, British television has found a place, if only in its margins, for programs that consciously worked to expand the boundaries of television aesthetics. Even in the present climate of increased academic interest in television history, its experimental tradition has generally either been approached generically or been lost within the assumption that television is simply a mass medium. Experimental British Television uncovers the history of experimental television, bringing back forgotten programmers in addition to looking at relatively more privileged artists or program strands from fresh perspectives.
