Because I don’t own a teevee, I’m usually ignorant of the hidden nuggets nestled on obscure cable channels.  But as I’m house sitting this weekend, and it is the kind of hot outside that necessitates more than one shower a day, I’ve had nothing but time to explore. So then, there’s this:  City Drive Live, the DOT’s traffic camera station.  It is the perfect channel for people who want to zone out to the tube, but find the narrative of the Weather Channel too complicated to follow!  It is just, as it sounds, live feeds from the cameras, cutting from street to street every thirty seconds or so in a transfixing loop: Times Square, the Brooklyn Bridge, BQE & Sackett, FDR & Catherine.  Some feeds are black & white, some are in color, definitely both are low res and blown-out, raw and twitchy, like surveillance footage that might be used on an episode of “Law & Order.” (Freeze!  Zoom in! There’s the perp!)  Sometimes there’s just a black or blue screen when the stream is down!  It is unexpected, and a little sad making, but then in a second you are onto the next (though I very much want to know what is going on at Tillary & Flatbush). It is indeed “the equivalent of a video fish tank.“  But then, have you tried to watch Bravo’s “Miami Social”?
