social suicide- something to get the ideas coming in your brain tanks

dear all,

here are a few ideas regarding the 24hr surveillance project that was put forth by Neil a few days ago. sprung from our brains while propping up the bar in java one Monday evening, we hope they Will get your creative juices flowing



  • 24hr CCTV is inescapable- is it really for our own protection? hidden in lights, signs etc
  • who's watching the screens? who's watching the watchers of the screens? who's watching the watchers of the watchers? where does it end??
  • do people now have 'safety paranoia'?- are people being turned against each other
  • is there enough security in the streets and towns, in your own homes? are the papers telling stories to scaremonger?
  • constant fear of terrorism
  • celebrity culture- people throwing themselves in the firing line- big brother
  • all emails, text and phone calls can be traced and read
  • neighbourhood watch. are your neighbouring curtains twitching??

these are some little notions for you folks who are looking for a place to start
