Abstract

In our daily lives, using credit cards, webcams, tagging our images on Facebook, browsing a city with our smartphones, we constantly participate as citizens in the surveillance society. In contrast, in design and art of surveillance sharing these strategies becomes a tactic of political criticism and subversive action. This article reviews the works and projects of digital artists and designers who are the main political agents of the artistic discourse on the network society. They are creators who critically explore how post-capitalist narratives affect the literacy of machines, humans, and ecosystems. Her main lines of research include the materiality of the Internet, surveillance, data visualization and interfaces.
