The Performance

Technology is always watching us and keeping tabs on what we do.  We voluntarily allow it to do so by posting status updates, pictures, and videos of ourselves on the internet.  Even if we do not do these things all businesses and many public locations have security cameras and other ways to monitor us.  Simply by walking across campus I pass by many cameras each day.

So in an age when we are all so exposed to cameras and being watched why is it that many people are so afraid to be on camera.  If they do not have the time to prepare themselves the average person simply does not know what to do in front of a camera.

Even just asking a simple 'Excuse me, what time is it?'  becomes very difficult for people to answer. Most eventually do answer but not after stuttering or trying to cover themselves from the camera.

This is what I tried to bring to light in my performance when I went around campus asking various people that very question while Chris pointed a camera at them.

Blogger does not seem to like my monster sized movie file so I can't upload it right now.  I can upload it elsewhere if you still want it.

For now here is an action packed screenshot from when I was working on it.  Exciting!
