WeiweiCam is a self-surveillance project by artist Ai Weiwei that went live on April 3, 2012, exactly one year after the artist's detention by Chinese officials at Beijing Airport. At least fifteen surveillance cameras monitor his house in Beijing which, according to Ai, makes it the most-watched spot of the city. He described his decision to put himself under further surveillance as a symbolic way to increase transparency in the Chinese government.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ai Weiwei's #WeiweiCam )〕 WeiweiCam consisted of four webcams that sent a live 24-hour feed publicly viewable from the website weiweicam.com. 46 hours after the site went live Ai Weiwei was instructed to shut down WeiweiCam by Chinese authorities. During the time weiweicam.com was live it received 5.2 million views. WeiweiCam was included in "What We Watch", an exhibition on net art and surveillance, at COFAspace Gallery, UNSW College of Fine Arts.〔(What We Watch: Net Art and Surveillance )〕〔(What We Watch Exhibition )〕 Until June 30, 2013 WeiweiCam is to be seen at the (Kunstpalais Erlangen ), Germany. In the context of the exhibition "Freedom!" the visitors can contact the artist directly via Twitter. ==See also== *Caochangdi *Ai Weiwei 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WeiweiCam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
