Wafaa Bilal, a professor of photography at New York University, plans to have a camera surgically implanted in the back of his head. When his project his completed, it will stream images to museum visitors:
For one year, Mr. Bilal's camera will take still pictures at one-minute intervals, then feed the photos to monitors at the museum. The thumbnail-sized camera will be affixed to his head through a piercing-like attachment, his NYU colleagues say. Mr. Bilal declined to comment for this story.
The artwork, titled °The 3rd I,± is intended as °a comment on the inaccessibility of time, and the inability to capture memory and experience,± according to press materials from the museum, known as Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art. Mr. Bilal's work would be among the inaugural exhibits of Mathaf, scheduled to open next month. C Gizmodo
