Surveillance Camera Players: 1984

"The surveillance camera Players are not watching you. They are watching the cameras, because we have forgotten to. The cameras can't understand what the SCP are doing, but we can. The cameras don't smile but you might."
— Greil Marcus, author of Lipstick Traces.

Police: "I think you need a permit to do this."

Girl: "No you don't."

Police: "You don't?"

No, that's the name of the book that they are reenacting.

if there wasnt surveillance cameras and someone was killed or raped at that train station these people in this film would be the first to complain and point fingers about why there wasnt a camera there to see what happened and who did it.

@RiloKiley77, you have failed to meet the minimum per-capita requirements to stimulate the economy. You've been charged with under consumption, refusal to consume Ministry of Propaganda approved information and various other anti- globalist and anti-capitalist activities. You are sentenced to death by injection.

But soon enough, there wont be any need for the cams. Because the ppl will be surveilling each other.

This happend to me the other day.

I was putting up signs about a child who was abducted by authorities, because parents wanted to homeschool (see my profile) and a couple just got totally mad:

"You are putting up garbash on public areas, you´re not allowed to do that, child abduction isn´t the end of the world...."

oh. ok. But putting up important signs "illegally" in public places is?

1984 is a George Orwell book about the government controlling the population with cameras and information control. Big Brother is everywhere today. We are rapidly losing our freedoms. Cops scan 1000s of plates a day with those new video cameras mounted on patrol car roof tops. The government especially under Bush and Obama want more control and information on the Public.

Police:"You don't?"...so funny you need a permit to hold paper....this makes sence to someone?

[RiloKiley77]

These days you have to have a permit to do anything.

I got a post card or something of these guys years ago. I totally forgot about it. Now, in retrospect, it seems all the cooler that I remember that post card. These guys are talking about the stuff that I'm into now.

Funny.
