In this post, we look at the key questions and offer up some likely answers (from an art nerd perspective). We will start by looking at the key engineering questions:
- Could a device that had been in the frame for up to 10 years have the battery life to listen for a remote trigger?
- Was there a functional shredder in the frame or was a pre-shredded work spooled out?
- Was the shredder shown in Banksy's video the device used to shred the painting?
 | The recent incident around Banksy embedding a shredder into the frame of his Girl With A Balloon has caught the world's attention. As a nerd obsessed with the intersection of art and tech, I too was sucked in over the weekend in trying to unravel the mysteries behind Banksy's self-shredding paint www.artnome.com |
