What can it do?
The project creates a snapshot in time and an archive of rapid shifts in the uptake of ambient, behavioural and bio-metric data and intelligence worldwide. Some of these technologies bring hope and some play into our fears. Ultimately the project asks - what kinds of societies are we building? what trade-offs are we willing to make? and do these techno-solutions help us succeed in controlling the virus, or only in controlling the hosts?
You can browse the selection of technologies and watch short promotional and explainer videos highlighting individual, corporate and governmental visions of how society can survive and function using technology in a pandemic and post-pandemic world.
