 Monitored Artwork is Steiner and Spahn’s second piece based on their open source Embedded Art System , which is conceived as an interactive installation. The installation is based on four units each consisting of motorized cameras, an Arduino and Raspberry Pi that each are connected to a video projector. An additional Raspberry Pi runs a Python / OpenCV program and overlooks the room with a master camera with a wide angle lens. All units are connected to each other via a local network. The movements of the audience are tracked by the cameras and the captured positional data of the visitor is then used to control the units, which  signalizes them to move their cameras to follow up to four persons. Additionally the data is used to control the soundscape created by Pure Data on the same Raspberry Pi, where also Midi controlled electrical motors via pickups are used, with a result of the mechanical noises being combined with digital sound.  Monitored Artwork is Steiner and Spahn’s second piece based on their open source Embedded Art System , which is conceived as an interactive installation.

 3D objects created from Platonic solids are overlaid the camera pictures from the cameras and animated in perpetual motion, which also reacts to the audience. 3D objects created from Platonic solids are overlaid the camera pictures from the cameras and animated in perpetual motion, which also reacts to the audience.

 An additional layer of surveillance is added by the display of the current network traffic, which is shown under the graphical output of each camera on its projection. When the system is connected to the network of the exhibition space, all network activities are visible and projected in the screen, but also the internal communication between the devices is displayed for the audience. An additional layer of surveillance is added by the display of the current network traffic, which is shown under the graphical output of each camera on its projection.
