Turns out it’s more difficult than you (I) might expect coming up with a concept for a digital installation and deciding how to best turn that idea into a physical thing that could potentially engage passers-by in Lincoln.

Within the theme of Liberation for Frequency 2015, covering the key aspects of Liberation as a Digital Human, Knowledge Sharing and Enhanced Imagination; I think I want to explore how the future could look for us when wearable technology and body-as-interface design becomes the reality. Are we going to have to become our Facebook profiles that we already have to carefully scour for information that we might not want to share with potential employers? If so, how much data from our wearable gadgets would automatically be uploaded onto these sorts of publicly accessible profiles and would we really have any control of where this data from our everyday lives in general ends up?

When technology that is supposed to make our lives easier becomes a mine of data to share with third parties, are we really Liberated?
