Some ideas for building an online and a travelling exhibition of surveillance objects / objects of surveillance … past / present / future
When building a Museum of Surveillance, which objects should be on display? There’s the obvious, but there should be some room for some surprise and some absurdities (IoT).
Some possibilities (non-exhaustive) …
Classic surveillance camera (different types?), ANPR camera, home IP-camera
GAFAM
Bodyscanner
Facial recognition
Smart meter
Fingerprints /more biometric data / Data body
Credit card
PNR
Smartphone
Database / Files
Smart home
Alexa, Siri, …
We-vibe vibrator
Verily diapers
Smart watch (children’s watch?)
App store with tracking apps? e.g. Runkeeper fitness app, FaceApp
Putting the objects into categories.
Give each category a catchy name / phrase.
Some possibilities (non-catchy names) …
The Internet
The Internet of Things
Public space
The human body
Government
Surveillance capitalism
Graphics
Each object gets a short description and should be dated
