Good Neighbours | affect lab

An immersive storytelling project about neighbourhood surveillance weaving together performance, technology and placemaking. Good Neighbours aims to raise urgent questions about community-making and intimate surveillance technology. They explore how communities create spaces of belonging and alienation through mobile platforms like WhatsApp and Nextdoor as well as intimate surveillance technologies such as Nest cameras, Teslacams and Ring doorbells. The app-driven live performance is a location-based work that features at select arts/culture/technology festivals.
