“Interception” 2007
A surveillance camera being used to monitor public space was hijacked
and reinstalled in a subway station.
The camera was used intentionally to broaden consciousness concerning
the problem of increasing lack of privacy.
People entering and exiting the station were tracked by the camera,
and their “capture” was projected on a station wall.
The action was illegal.
