I was listening to a podcast about the Altermodern exhibition at Tate Britain and the curator mentioned a piece by Walead Beshty which involved shipping laminated glass cubes which were cracked in transit. It reminded me of a piece which I saw a couple of years ago which I find more interesting. The piece is by British artist Tim Knowles which is described in his own words below:
A digital camera inside a parcel looks out through a small hole and captures images of its journey through the postal system. The Spy Box was sent from my studio to the gallery taking an image every 10 seconds recording a total of 6994 images these were then edited together to create an animated slideshow.
Below is a short clip from his website which is found here.
