August 26th- Surveillance Project Synopsis:
Having taken just a few pictures previously of surveillance equipment
in Queensgate Shopping Arcade in Peterborough, it now seems necessary to collect
a more substantial amount of footage in the centre and surrounding area of
Sheffield. A quick look around would suggest that the town centre is not as
widely surveyed as the other towns that I have looked at. Indeed there is
less non-specific arbitrary surveillance, i.e. of streets, but there is more
in-store surveillance which perhaps does not pose as a collective authority
as much as an external network of cameras.
Pictures taken:
2 of security guards
1 of a police car
approx. 6 surveillance cameras
amount of film left: 24
Have not used hand held video camera due to fear of being reprimanded.
