Is this available for purchase, anywhere?


10+ years ago I was in San Francisco when I checked out their new Modern Art museum. I remember being sucked into this room filled with monitors. All the monitors were synched in such a way that a soon as one image moved off the screen it would appear on the screen directly next to it and so on down the line. There were at least 50 monitors in all. The subject matter is simple but for me ( I love to people watch) it was mesmerizing. A Series of steady cam scenes focused on Russian citizens waiting for trains, buses, walking along sidewalks. There was just something that really appealed to me. I saw it again years later at the Jewish Museum in NYC and loved it just as much.

Does anyone know if this piece exists anywhere for consumer use? I know it's technically an art piece but I would love to be able to view the footage again without having to track it down at various museums around the world.
