Today, not only public space but also our private spaces are constantly being surveilled and controlled.

Continuous surveillance of our movements in public space and our inner activities means that we never walk alone. Private and sensitive information is now stored remotely and is available at the click of a computer mouse.

The aggressive use of technologies controls our every step.

Face recognition software, the ubiquitous use of surveillance cameras, software tracking our movements and preferences in social media and searches, all are resources disguised as benign but are controlling our every step. The latest addition to the list is smartphone apps monitoring your health levels and movements, or nanorobots inserted in your bloodstream and tracking all your vital functions. How long until they monitor your thoughts?

The ubiquitous ever-watching eye is a collective unconscious image accepted as a symbol for control, surveillance, and monitoring.

—Yes, we live in Orwellian times!
