Intimate Surveillance

affect lab delves deep into communities and their relationship with domestic communication-technology -- such as neighbourhood-watch WhatsApp groups and doorbell cameras -- operating in buildings, streets and housing complexes.

It’s here, at one of the most micro levels of engagement that we can understand how surveillance culture shapes people’s sense of place and their feelings of belonging to a community.

Key Research Questions:

  • How do neighbourhood communities claim space through technology?

  • How do fear, paranoia and prejudice circulate in communities through mobile technology?

  • What are the politics of mobility in neighbourhoods?
