The Model Citizen – Modelling Surveillance
One of the key drivers of modern citizenship is the way data surveillance has become ubiquitous, effecting almost all areas of everyday life. In this talk, artists Bronek Kozka and Larissa Hjorth address the way their art deals with and explores the currents of modelling surveillance, drawing on wider artistic and political practices as they do so. The talk will end with a Q & A.
