You have no secrets

You have no secrets

You are being watched. You have no secrets. When you walk around the central London, you will be filmed by CCTV cameras 400 times within half an hour. Facial recognition software can scan these images. More of these cameras are filming road traffic. Number plates can be read electronically. The technology improves each year. When a policeman asks you where you were last Thursday, he’ll just be checking you’re telling the truth – he’ll already know precisely what you were doing. You are being watched. You have no secrets. Biometric information is being recorded by governments. ID cards will use this data to identify you. Your iris scans, retina pattern, fingerprints will be kept. The US government stores biometric data on you when you visit. The US government now has more information on British subjects than our own leaders. The human race is catalogued and monitored on a greater scale than ever before. You are being watched. You have no secrets. Your computer offers information about what you do and what you think. Google uses cookies. These cookies allow Google to catalogue all of your search queries and relate them back to you. You are being watched. You have no secrets. Don’t think that by deleting a file on you computer it is gone. It’s still there, waiting to be read by forensic teams. When you get rid of your computer, make sure you smash the hard drive to pieces with a hammer. You are being watched. You have no secrets.

The biggest holder of personal data are the Mormans I hear.  Every time we post a message on this site, or any other, it is recorded by data collectors whos job it is to monitor what could potentially be a National threat. The truth is out there, and the truth is, that someone knows more about us than we know about ourselves.  Beware Sat-Nav - "they know where you are going, when you get there, and how fast you are travelling"  One step away from a personal bar code tattoed on your wrist or forehead. 1984 has nothing on this.

Thought provoking. Using photography to highlight a clear threat is novel, combined with an unusual and startling image. More power to your elbow.

Very powerful though provoking work chris, brilliantly done, I very much like to see photography used a medium to comunicate rather than just entertain the viewer, but that is wholey dependant on the artist behind the camera having something they wish to translate into a visual message, for me you've really puled this off so well here with the secret images.
well done indeed :)
kindest regards lizzie.
