Live Low Framerate
Vrzáková, Barbora ; Maixner, Miroslav (referee) ; Mazanec, Martin (advisor)
In my diploma project I work with a topic of "watching" and arranging of view through digital media, especially the internet. The society got used to permanent presence of CCTV cameras at city squres, banks and shopping centres. The take of tracked locations is much bigger though. I was suprised by the amount of streams from totally unexpected places, which are possible to watch online. It is not a problem to visit a kitchen of columbian bistro, japanise barber shop or italian church, all from the comfort of home. The stream is running constantly and the viewer is limited only by the setting of the camera and a timezone of the particular country. Considering the fact, that separate streams are supplemented by almost no information, we are not able to define, who is the watchman, why is he watching and what is the actuall reason for watching. The whole situation of observing something in limited framerate without any context is just funny and creepy at the same time. My diploma project, which I named Live Low Framerate, is some kind of a reaction of those bizzare aspects of watching the public space.
