Behind all this: a prison

When we start talking about survaillance we actually simulataneously start thinking about a guy known by name Jeremy Bentham. He was active back in times but his model design of prison building is still up to date. His “panopticon” is about a “sentiment of an invisible omniscience”

This omnipresent survaillance is well known feeling and fact for example in shopping centers. We know that we are observed all the time when we are in there without actually being able to verify it, escape from it or trying to stop it. It is enough that we are awared of it´s existence and we change our behaviour. We all “pretend” to be good customers, deviant ones are turned back right at the main doors.
