Multimedia/performance artist Wafaa Bilal
has been forced to remove the camera he had attached to the back of his head in December. The camera, which streamed images to
Bilal's website and to the Mathaf in Doha, Qatar, was implanted by a body modification artist (read: tattoo guy), but his immune system rejected it. (Also, he was in
constant pain.) Bilal had the camera surgically removed on Friday, and is currently carrying it around his neck until he can get it re-implanted.
