Subject: Re: OCTV
Hi all,
Funny how things keep coming back!
In 2003, I wrote:
‘Arguably, CCTV is a bias: surveillance systems are presented as
‘closed’ but, eventually, are quite the opposite. In the age of
collective imagination, televisualisation and cyberspace distribution,
surveillance systems end up being, rather than a closed circuit
television, an open circuit television – OCTV.’ (Koskela, 2003: 305-306)
Koskela, Hille (2003). ”Cam Era” – the contemporary urban Panopticon.
Surveillance and Society, 1, 292–313.

Enjoy ;-)
And thanks once again for everyone involved in organizing the Sydney
conference – it was great!
