> WHITE NIGHT - Subveillance.

> Saturday 29 October 2011

> Brighton.
>
> See how artists are re-defining surveillance technology and using these
> devices to create works of art.
>
> Surveillance technologies surround us - in CCTV, on the web, in our
> phones. Can we turn these technologies on themselves? Can we subvert and
> play with them, turning them into devices to make art and film from? How
> can we create devices that render surveillance technology useless?
>
> Subveillance is a unique screening event at Lighthouse. In this dynamic
> series of short films, we see how artists have turned surveillance on
> its head – by turning CCTV cameras into filmmaking equipment, making
> anti-surveillance devices, and turning online surveillance technologies
> into subversive games and art-making tools.
>
> This screening is part of White Night, the city’s annual all-night arts
> festival that returns with this year’s edition themed around Utopias.
> Use your extra hour wisely on the night the clocks go back, by joining
> in with the city’s cultural reclaim of the streets. There are more than
> 60 unique and extraordinary ‘one night only’ cultural events taking
> place across the city, in cultural venues, cafes, parks, squares,
> streets, pop up spaces, sporting facilities, and on people’s smart
> phones and iPods. Come along and do something different in the middle of
> the night.
