At first glance, everything appears normal in this office, build for the Triennale d'art du Valais. On closer inspection you see that everything is a bit off. Fragments of a triangle chart appear on the calendar, clock, and binders. Walking further in to the office you hear music from the Cisco Systems answering machine from the computer. On screen are three doors displayed flying over a road in the mountains. All three doors, in the end, lead you to the same place. Finally, you see yourself on the computer screen, from behind, captured by a hidden surveillance camera. These photos are then posted on Twitter, and the viewer becomes the viewed.
The landing page has three doors which lead, like a reverse 'Colossal Cave Adventure' or a funnel, to one image of the surveillance camera in the office which is connected to the internet where the visitor(s) would see themselves.

Visitors
Two visitors using the computer in the office and discovering the pieces of the NSA's XKeyscore pyramid in the room. The IP Camera was remotely controllable and I could play sound out of the speakers attached to it. In this video you can hear The Police's 'Every Breath You Take'.
