>"KeyTweeter is a performance of data nudism based on a Twitter account

>communications (publishing information about friends that are not
>meant to be known?) and even errors and corrections, paradoxically
>putting the twitter-voyeur in a position of broader awareness than the
>recipient of the email or instant message. Possibly imagining a world
>of absolute transparency, the artist makes the source code available
>with instructions on how to set up your own KeyTweeter."
