PROJECT OVERVIEW: 

Timeframe an installation piece based on self reflection and the changing face of Los Angeles. In essence, the installation is a television set with a closed circuit security camera faced towards the street. The screen is not only intended to provide a moment of self-reflection for the viewer, but to also encapsulate them within a visual frame of the current state of the city behind them, all without the current obsessive necessity of the smartphone.
