Optical and auditory powers of inspection, traversing, facial recognition algorithms,
drone overflights and surveillance capitalism have historically and politically rendered residual
concepts of movement, communication and privacy anachronistic. History can be surveilled and reedited through counterfactuality. The technocratic, political and corporate centralization of exposure
precipitates counter-surveillance activism or sousveillance such as Black Lives Matter, new aesthetic
strategies of evasion and new cognitive mappings of public/private space.
