In March-April 2008, ShainaA collaborated with a number of agencies in Manchester city to open up CCTV control rooms to members of the public. The Manchester Metropolitan University and the Arndale Mall were the principal venues, and over 30 members of the public were able to attend one-hour 'clinics' in the CCTV rooms. Some results were shown as part of the exhibition 'What do you want?' at Cornerhouse, Manchester from March-April 2008.
In advance of CAMP's solo at De Appel and in collaboration with LIMA - a screening of two of the studio’s earlier acclaimed projects that examine surveillance, society, and cinematic apparatus.
