Hugh Hart describes how West Coast practice Electroland has repurposed surveillance technology in an interactive installation in Top of the Rock ‐ the observation platform on top of Rockefeller Center, which has become one of New York's premier visitor attractions. This playful, seemingly whimsical public art is the product of a creative partnership between architect‐trained Cameron McNall and programmer Damon Seeley. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
