@ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Are we being watched?  Where?  When? Why?  We live in an age in which our movements and footprints, digital and physical, are recorded and data about our lives is stored.  Surveillance, however, isn’t a new concept: people’s movements and communications have been tracked prior to the digital age via physical media (e.g., letters and photographs) and old fashioned espionage.

The Constellations Program welcomes you to join us for a lively and interdisciplinary panel discussion on these and other questions about surveillance in our society. Snacks provided!
