Making wiretap visible

Created:

Gizmodo today found that Louisa Bufardeci have among all her installations stitched wiretaps of 1 minute each from actual phone conversations.

Warrantless, wireless, telephone tapping – how does it affect the home-sweet-homeliness of the domestic space? 13 captured telephone conversations - all one minute long captures the sense of paranoia generated by the idea that anyone could be listening in, anytime. These particular thirteen conversations are sourced from a mixture of conversations history known to have been tapped, conversations from my private home, and conversations between abstract people.
