This is an experiment in found machine-vision footage, exploring the aesthetics of the robot eye.

CCTV Footage As Art: The Work Of William Betts
Betts uses CCTV stills, traffic cams, and photographs as the sources for his unsettling, blurry paintings which look like low-res, pixelated digital images. The paintings even include details like the time and date stamp you get on CCTV footage in a nod to a world in which we’re constantly being captured by watchful, mechanical eyes. With smartphones in every pocket and CCTVs on every street corner, it’s something that’s so ubiquitous we’ve become oblivious to it—and Betts’ work addresses this ever-present technological gaze and our complacency to it.
