Viewfinder / by Blast Theory (London)
_promises  but ultimately withholds  a glimpse of an intimate scene: the 
inviting openness of a large projection
leads the visitor to a private view through a camera in which erotic images 
are obscured and fragmented.
Filmed continuously over 24 hours using a time-lapse technique, Viewfinder 
juxtaposes the everyday with the porno-graphic.
With its reference to webcams and surveillance technology, the piece poses 
questions about mediation,
selfreflection and the voyeuristic impulse. http://www.blasttheory.co.uk
