https://thisiscolossal.com is one of those websites I like enough to have a bookmark on my bookmarks toolbar. Every week or two when I have some free time to spend, I will go to the website and just wander around, looking at the art on display.
Commercial linear induction motors were invented by someone at the Kirsch Company to solve just that problem.[1][2] It was a real product, it sold, but it didn't catch on.
It's ironic that the artist used a video camera (a rather privacy-invading tool) to detect where the subject is, in order to move the curtain (to shield privacy). A more honest implementation could have used low-resolution ultrasonic proximity sensors or something like that.

I’m sure the cctv is perfectly legal wherever this is located and people don’t have expectation of privacy while walking down a city street.
