Langside Drive
Douglas Honeyman
Ruby Honeyman is a 73-year-old pensioner who occasionally feels intimidated by groups of teenagers hanging around the streets of Kennoway.
Langside Drive is a networked appliance, which represents real time crime data in a playful and evocative way. Ruby looks through a door viewer representing her street to give her an idea of how many crimes relating to anti-social behaviour have recently taken place.
As the scene inside the appliance moves closer to the viewer, this indicates more of a threat, and encourages reflection on how safe she feels in her own neighbourhood.
