NYU Art Professor Tests Students’ Privacy

NYU photo professor Wafaa Bilal is testing the limits of his students’ privacy rights, but also of NYU’s patience.

Bilal is implanting a camera in the back of his head, to take still images on one-minute intervals, with the still images being fed to monitors located in a new museum in Qatar. The problem? Bilal teaches 2-3 courses at NYU’s Tisch School, making his future students a bit uneasy about their own lack of privacy in the company of Bilal.
