A substantial re-making of Rise/Run. It is well known that Chicago’s
loop is one of the most heavily surveilled areas in the world. Also
common knowledge is US government agencies’ unhealthy interest in our
reading habits. Interactive installation “Search Terms” critiques this
ubiquitous surveillance, tracking visitors’ movements as they explore
“dangerous” and “suspicious” book listings and surreptitious views of
gallery visitors.
Part of the "echelon" exhibition at through 9/1/07.
