Description

In this installation, Marc Lee presents the wonderful world of surveil- lance technology. In one storage rack are all kinds of cameras: classic ones, as very authentic dummies, or concealed in the housing of a smoke alarm or a wall clock. As an alternative to the utopia of total security through camera surveillance, Lee presents the website insecam.org: The visitors have access to the images from thousands of unsecured security cameras all over the world, where you can peep into workplaces as well as private apartments.
