KhirkeeYaan Shaina Anand / Chitrakarkhana.net (IN) Prix Ars Electronica 2007 “Interactive Art. Honorary Mention.”
KhirkeeYaan (khirkee: “window”; yaan: “vehicle”) was an exploration of an open-circuit TV system as a local area network, autonomous micro-media generation and feedback device. Consumer CCTV and CATV equipment was laid out to form temporary communication loops for the “use” of the community. TVs and electricity, consent, collaboration and participation were all sourced on location. Four sets of cameras, TVs and mikes were planted within a 200-metre range of each other. The cameras sat on top of the TVs. The quadrant, comprising sound and image from all four locations, was fed back to the TVs, allowing instant four-way communication.
