Video as Urban Condition is a collaborative research project exploring how video shapes urban experience — how video is woven into the fabric of cities, how it forms and informs subjectivity. Since 2004, it has comprised exhibitions, screenings, public- and academic discussions. The most recent outing of the project hosted by Lentos Kunstmsueum/Museum of Modern Art Linz, Austria, and organised by Anthony Auerbach and Thomas Edlinger, included a video installation and a series of discussion events, involving artists, theorists, activists, curators and journalists on the following themes:

I See You, You See Me: public space and personal media politics
This is a Simulation: model cities, wish images and playgrounds
Closed Circuits: voyeurism, (self-)control and TV

Video as Urban Condition
... On video
... Urban matters
