Description
Are there strategies to confront digital surveillance? Zach Blas and Hans Bernhard from Ubermorgen.com pursued this question in their talks.
 
Zach Blas is currently presenting one possible approach in the »GLOBAL CONTROL AND CENSORSHIP« exhibition: Masks Protect against »Facial Recognition«. With »Masks«, Blas places himself in the tradition of masked resistance, such as with the Pussy Riot and Anonymous, who refuse to be identified and punished by wearing masks.
