I will be doing the research paper with Tyler Przybysz.
For our paper, I would like to explore the works of Hasan Elahi!
Elahi is a professor of art at Rutgers University and a working artist. He frequently takes business abroad. In 2002 he returned from a trip, only to be taken into custody by the FBI. While in custody they interrogated him for being a terrorist in 9/11. In attempt to prove his innocence Elahi started a blog that monitored what he was doing 24/7. He even wears a tracking chip that the FBI can monitor 24/7. Aside from the humorous aspects of the blog, including trips to the bathroom, his art touches on the lack of privacy that is continually depreciating as technology advances. The link below is to his blog, enjoy!
