Calgary-based multidisciplinary artist David Bynoe recently crafted the Blockwatch periscope for a show involving 7 artists and their site specific pieces for a suburban backyard. Bynoe's surveillance system, a 20 foot tall wooden pan/tilt periscope, certainly isn't aimed toward the discreet neighborhood spy.

The scope works remarkably well at spying on her neighbors, who fortunately found the whole thing rather amusing. I think the warning signs that I posted around the neighborhood helped.
