So how does an installation from 1968 use a colour Sanyo VCC-3912 CCD camera from the 1980s?

@scruss i couldn't find any other info perusing the web, but the link to the whitney is legit, so either a) the installation is dated incorrectly or b) the installation changed what gear it used a few times before it was acquired by the museum (according to the page, in 1993)
