Art as a Performance/Fantasy in Video Response

I think these two passages are alluding to the idea that video art like most art is actually a type of  performance art. For instance, the the first passage touches on the fact that art has elements of play, symbols, and festivals which can all be seen as a form of performance because there is an interaction between the viewer and the artist. Likewise, in the second passage the author states that his first encounter with "interactive works began not with video, but in performance....Interactive systems require viewers to react" just like a performance. For this reason, we can see how video grew out of performance/interactive art. The video that I found below is called "Music Painting", I thought it was a cool interactive video to show because it encompasses most of the elements talked about in the two passages
