Room-sized installation -- a landscape/mountainscape terrain "generated by datasets relating to the frequency & position of urban crimes." Not sure over how long a period of time the stats were compiled, though, and how they cumulatively (literally) added up to create the "Mountain Fear" model. Interesting attempt at data visualization, at any rate.
