Giving credit where credit's due - this is a pretty innovative idea.
A Manchester band has used municipal CCTV systems to record their video.
They set up in front of 80 locations - to include mobile ones to get on film and than used the Freedom of Information Act to request the footage.
However, after watching the video I question the set-up of some of the camera angles and their usefulness, but than again it could be a pretty tight crop.
It's estimated that there are over 13 Million CCTV cameras in Britain, and there's no doubt they didn't get footage from every request. But they did get enough to produce the video below and I have to admit - pulled it together nicely.
Of course there is a huge problem here, but when the line between corporate and municipal use of systems becomes more and more a gray area - you can expect more of this kind of thing in the future.
