Based on Director Adam Rifkin's award winning Film LOOK, this new series reveals the world as seen through the pervasive eyes of ever-present surveillance cameras. You'll discover your Secrets aren't secret.
Did you remember to watch the LOOK the Series marathon TONIGHT at 10pm-12am on Showtime Networks! Catch up on episodes 1-4 and then tune in Sun at midnight for an all new episode 5!
Oh gosh, I wish I could but the timing is bad until one of the shows I watch ends its season. LOOK The Series sounds good, though! Is it on Demand?
Teenage Girls and what they do
"The Post 9/11 world has forever changed the notion of privacy. There are now approximately 40 million surveillance cameras in the United States generating more than 5 billion hours of footage every week. And the numbers are growing. The average American is now captured approximately 300 times a day, in department stores, gas stations, changing rooms, even public bathrooms. No one is spared from the relentless, unblinking eye of the countless cameras that are hidden in every nook and cranny of day-to-day life. Shot entirely from the point of view of the security cameras, webcams, cell phone cameras, and every other kind of lens that we all live in front of everyday, LOOK The Series follows multiple interweaving, story lines over the course of a random week in Los Angeles."

Hey Dan!
Hidden cameras, back in the day anyway, seemed like a good idea. Certainly ATM machine cameras are utilized in a way I'm OK with (I think). I don't even think about store cameras. They are just there. Goin' through the Fast Pass toll, getting your photo snapped--never really think twice. I haven't watched the program but it is intriguing-sounding. I'll probably be sort of hyper-aware about every minute I'm not tucked safely in my house--then as time passes just let it drift to the back of my mind. We humans tend to become complacent about stuff that doesn't seem to directly affect us, no?

Looks pretty interesting (and a bit unnerving). I'll have to check it out.
