TALK: Friday Talk: Surveillance and Privacy

Many generations of surveillance have passed since the introduction of CCTV, which now seems almost innocuous in comparison to newer technologies.

Dr David Glance, the Director of the Centre for Software Practice at UWA has been a keen commentator and observer of the interface between technology, people and society and is a regular contributor to The Conversation.

Listen to his observations and concerns, and join the conversation about the ambiguity of tracking and privacy as technological options diversify and are embedded in our lives.

This event forms part of the public program accompanying the exhibition Miriam Stannage: Survey 2006-2016.

Miriam Stannage: Survey 2006-2016 Curated by Lee Kinsella.

This new exhibition showcases Stannage’s characteristically wry observations of life, and testifies to her ongoing experimentation and innovation across a range of media. The artist utilises everyday objects to offer commentary on fame, and the fragile and transitory nature of our time on this planet in strangely beautiful works of art.

Photographs from major series including Elvis and Marilyn (Spirit Photographs), 2009-2010, Paradise Lost, 2008 and her most recent Security Notice series, 2014 - ­2015 will be on display.

Exhibition runs: 30 July - 24 September 2016
