They Only Have Eyes for You, Spikehunter
Scrolling through hundreds of pages Insecam.com–over the course of a week I screen recorded thousands of live uploaded still images from footage recorded by cctv camera’s whose owners never changed their password from the default set by the manufacturer.
I was thinking about the parallels between the destructive manhandling of nature and the diminishment of human freedom by the vast, overwhelming sea of advertisements we are driven through, leaving undetectable stains on our perception of the world and the necessity for consumption, violence, and ideological ignorance. Hope you feel it.
