Urban Surveillance Bureau
A Sequence of work in process
By Yelta Köm
Exhibition on view 02.02.22 – 09.02.22

It consisted of an assemblage of different surveillance tools, antennas, screens, and camouflage surfaces. The bureau performs as a mock-up of a governmental info point to ask how it is possible to hide within the system and what we should do to empower dissident movements.
The Bureau makes visible the infrastructures of digital extraction concealed within the topography of the city and reveals how corporations and governmental structures access peoples data. Throughout the transmediale
@vorspiel.berlin , the Bureau will show a sequence from its work in process, with drawings, speculations, videos and objects at TOP e.V. | Transdisciplinary Project Space.
This work was partially developed during the Forecast Platform Mentorship Programme in 2020.
