See moreSurveillance has become ubiquitous. From video cameras in public places to Internet-enabled devices, wireless sensor networks and flying drones, privacy is becoming a scarce resource. What if, instead of resisting the use of surveillance technology, we could harness it for the public good? ARTiVIS is a research project exploring how real-time video can be used as a powerful tool for environmental awareness, activism and artistic explorations. ARTiVIS aims to create a citizen-run peer-to-peer forest surveillance network through the use of affordable open source hardware and software, such as the DIY kit we are developing both online and in community workshops.
