The Truth Behind Technology

I have researched into news events to see the devastating effects that technology such as Facebook and mobile phones can have on a persons life. This is liked with surveillance and voyeurism in that in all of these cases the victims were stalked so hopefully shall give me some inspiration in terms of telling a story within my photographs.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1256552/Facebook-stalker-Paul-Bristol-killed-Camille-Mathurasingh-seeing-new-man.html- this article is an example of the many tragic ends that come to the victim of a stalker

http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/story/erbes-ex-husband-testifies-in-alleged-stalker-case_1179597- this article shows that most celebrities are stalked severely but due to they continual protection they rarely meet the same end as a civilian.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/insideout/yorkslincs/series7/stalking.shtml- this article provides an insite into the ongoing problems of stalking and the huge impact it has on peoples lives.


I have also found that despite the fact that we are the most surveyed country in the world CCTV is in fact very unsuccessful when catching criminals as this article proves.
