The introduction of two separate cable channels (the Independent Film Channel and the Sundance Channel) devoted exclusively to independent film in the mid-1990s raises a series of questions concerning the conceptualization of independent film as a term, the specificity of television, and the connection between these two spheres. How does the multi-faceted institution known as television negotiate the "artistically independent" text to erase any contradictions one might assume would occur between the myths of TV as the commercial industry and film as the artistic vision? And how are ephemeral and value-laden terms like independent film, alternative vision, and quality understood and constructed within these contexts? This project analyzes how television's little known, but nevertheless present, role has contributed and shaped the meaning of the term independent film. Not just an institutional and economic analysis of independent film distributed on television, this project explores how an "independent idea" has been actively constructed and negotiated within television from the early broadcast network years to the contemporary digital era. Television's contributions to the independent idea are tracked as they occurred in relation to the introduction of new platforms of television distribution. Industry competitors such as the Public Broadcasting Service, cable television, and digital cable/Internet networks each positioned their new services in relation to the limits of "regular television," resulting in the continuous construction of taste and distinction within television. Through such negotiations, television has helped shaped the meaning of independent film by asserting an "independent idea" through the discursive mobilization of the author figure, the pedagogical and nationalist address of publicly-funded television, and the creation and perpetuation of an irreverent cineaste spectator address.
