Tracking Transience: Altitude v2.0

In 2002, Hasan Elahi was apprehended by F.B.I. agents after an anonymous tipster accused him of links to terrorism. Finding himself the subject of a lengthy investigation, Elahi created an ongoing “digital alibi” for himself—a computerized system that tracks his whereabouts and other personal information—and publishes it online at www.trackingtransience.net.
This project is presented in the exhibition through two pieces, not pictured here: 'Tracking Transience: Position', 2007 and 'Tracking Transience: Evidence', also 2007.
