This entity came into being in 1975 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, as a Special Interest Group in the department of graphic art. The principal aim of the group was to promote work that defied the established curriculum of art courses. Under the adopted name of the group, its members started analysing various media such as film and TV. They endeavoured to develop their own variety of structural cinema and analytical video.
