 of multimedia artist Hasan Elahi's work in San Francisco, is the latest 
 installment of a much larger project, Tracking Transience, which began in 
 2004 and continues today. Falsely accused of involvement in the 9/11 
 terrorist plot, Elahi became the subject of an intensive F.B.I. 
 investigation. After months of interrogations and nine consecutive 
 lie-detector tests, he was cleared of suspicion. Following this harrowing 
 experience, Elahi conceived Tracking Transience, a self-surveillance 
 project that continually and publicly presents his exact location, 
 activities, bank records, and other personal data.  Although the daily 
 images of places visited, food eaten, and money spent can be seen as 
 details of contemporary life, for Elahi the subject matter becomes evidence 
 of his life and his actions, establishing a voluntary and perpetual digital 
 alibi against future accusations. For many artists the dissolution between 
 art and life is a theoretical practice, yet for Elahi it is a permanent 
 routine that brings the viewer a record of life as a citizen and a life as 
 working artist.  His work raises powerful, undeniable questions about 
 privacy, and about who is watching us, when, and where.  Elahi is 
 represented by Michael Klein Arts in New York, NY.\n
