Knowledge is power. And today, as data equals knowledge, data is power. Every day we leave significant traces of personal information on the internet. Laokoon has taken on the challenge of reconstructing a person solely based on these traces, by using their Google search data. The result is a three-channel video installation that encourages viewers to reflect on their online behaviour and consider the use of tools to protect their privacy.

Andrew Smith made these shoes as a self-portrait as an entry for a competition for Norwich Fringe Festival at the Bally Shoe Factory in Norwich in 2003 when there was a 'Self-portrait in a shoebox' competition. His entry wasn't chosen as a winner because the judges thought they were too 'professional' and he must have had help.
Anyway, they were modelled on a pair of Italian shoes that he had bought in a little shop in Soho, London and the boxes nested like Matrioska dolls. You can see the real shoes in some of the shots
