Both articles emphasized the subjectivity of video. The meaning of the work depends on the individual. The audience is required to engage in the piece--intermedia really only exists through interaction. Video is different from artwork such as paintings and sculptures, because when you interpret the work, it's almost in a retrospective point of view--somewhat limiting the audience's role in the art. Intermedia is more about evoking a reaction.

These are the final scenes of "Inception." It requires the audience to play along. The director doesn't make it clear whether he is in a dream or reality; it's open to interpretation.
