This article presents a descriptive-reflexive analysis of the video letters series exchanged between Japanese artists Shuntar? Tanikawa and Shûji Terayama in 1982-1983. Through their interrelation between verbal and audiovisual resource, they accomplished one of the first experiences of the video letters genre, which overlaps communication but goes beyond it, as it composes a work of art in its entirety (a collaborative work, to a certain extent, and also as each video letter would depend of another as a response to be created). This case study is an example of the human necessity to form circuits, specially in the arts.
