“The syntactic structure and lateral movement of Arcade match its fairground equivalent. The work includes a series of images recycled from television and film, interspersed with location footage of Chicago El stations and punctuated with paintings created by Paschke on a computerized paint box. Flashing insights and lights, the ready-made imagery presents a sideshow of current concerns playing on the slippage between the televised and the real.”
— Judith Russi Kirshner, “The Science of Fiction/The Fiction of Science, Video Data Bank,” Artforum International 23 (December, 1984)
