Issue 06: The Surveillance Issue
An irresistibly thought-provoking exploration of a prescient cultural topic, The SURVEILLANCE issue is one of our all-time favourites!
SELECTED PIECES IN THIS ISSUE:
Transmission Party: Saving Rave in Dystopia
How far would you go for a night out? An anonymous investigation takes place…
Eye Spy: Meet Alfie White
Hear from the 22-year-old photographer who turns people-watching into art
The Worker and the Spy
Hamza Ansari deep dives into the world of A.I. and dark kitchens
EXTRACT FROM EDITOR’S LETTER:
“It used to be that big capitals had a reputation for making individuals feel anonymous. You could get lost in the crowd. These days the city sees everything. London is one of the most watched places on earth, and there are many different types of watchers.
SURVEILLANCE may seem like an ominous theme – but we think it’s a really important one. Not all surveillance has to be sinister, but understanding how technologies are being used and what this means on a personal level makes us more informed citizens. Knowledge is power.
In classic LONDNR style, we’ve tried to come at the topic from many different angles. We’ve got a beautiful feature on young street photographer, Alfie White, who turns people watching into art, a satire on workplace spying, a hard-hitting interview with a civil rights group, and an eerily stylish photoshoot inspired by the famous book and Netflix film, The Voyeur’s Motel.”
