"description": "George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four is the most well-known cultural expression of fear of surveillance and a powerful metaphor for the totalitarian potentials of any bureaucratic state. Evocations of a menacing “Big Brother” have become commonplace in discussions about surveillance and control, and so have debates about whether or not Orwell was “right” in his predictions as portrayed in the book.\r\n",

"description": "Big Brother is a reality TV show franchise created by John de Mol. As of 11 November 2016, there have been 387 seasons of Big Brother in over 54 franchise countries and regions. In the show, contestants called \"housemates\" live in a specially-constructed house, isolated from the outside world. Housemates are voted out until only one remains and wins the cash prize. During their stay in the house, contestants are put under permanent observation – they’re continuously monitored by live CCTV cameras as well as personal audio microphones. Taking its name from George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, Big Brother evokes surveillance as its central theme while ironically denying the dystopian undertones. \r\n",

+ "intro": "An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. UAVs are a component of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS); which include a UAV, a ground-based controller, and a system of communications between the two. The flight of UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy: either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers.\r\n\r\nCompared to manned aircraft, UAVs were originally used for missions too \"dull, dirty or dangerous\" for humans. While they originated mostly in military applications, their use is rapidly expanding to commercial, scientific, recreational, agricultural, and other applications, such as policing, peacekeeping, and surveillance, product deliveries, aerial photography, agriculture, smuggling, and drone racing. Civilian drones now vastly outnumber military drones, with estimates of over a million sold by 2015, so they can be seen as an early commercial application of Autonomous Things, to be followed by the autonomous car and home robots.",

+ "show": "In a new commission that is both object and environment, Pritzker Prize-winning architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron with artist/activist Ai Weiwei explore the meaning of public space in our surveillance-laden world, referencing the story of Hansel and Gretel in which the children lose their way and feel a sense of menace in a space they know and trust. The artists take advantage of the vast openness of the Drill Hall, creating a 21st century public place in which the environment is disconcerting, the entrance is unexpected, and every movement is tracked and surveyed by drones and communicated to an unknown public.\r\n\r\nThe work builds on the artists’ shared practice as designers of form and investigation (the Beijing Olympic Stadium and “quite simply the best summer Serpentine Pavilion ever” according to Time Out London) and their deep interest in the public realm whether through activism or architecture. Ai Weiwei has described their collaborations as follows: “My experience of working with Jacques and Pierre is that we never think separately. It’s like three soldiers in the war—and that’s a good feeling: we have a constant understanding.”\r\n\r\nCurated by Tom Eccles and Hans Ulrich Obrist",
