ABOUT SUMMONED SURVEILLANCE:
Exhibition at ASU's GSC Gallery ran from 2/1-2/28/10
Through an established live video & audio feed in the artists' shared studio (Peter Christenson & Matthew Mosher), Summoned Surveillance, a month-long, 24-7 durational kinetic exhibition, invited online viewers to remotely observe and interact in real-time with the artists through a computer web browser.


The new-genre, performance piece explored a range of issues including those related to privacy and voyeurism, intellectual property, and public and self-scrutiny. The installation investigated both the synthesis and disconnect between the actual and virtual realms, the artificial (re)presentation of reality in the electronic world, and contemporary culture’s obsession with watching reproduced realism in the media. >> More Information
