	Sousveillance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The more general concept of sousveillance goes beyond just inverse surveillance and the associated twentieth century political "us versus them" framework for citizens to photograph police, shoppers to photograph shopkeepers, or passengers to photograph taxicab drivers.

	Surveillance & Society Issue 3 Abstracts
		The first part maps out three “strands” in the reception of panopticism in surveillance studies, suggesting that it tends to fall into one of three broad kinds: its wholesale appropriation and application; its wholesale rejection as inadequate with respect to a supposedly “post-disciplinary” society; and its qualified acceptance subject to some empirically-dependent limitations.
		Surveillance is examined as an emotional event, which is often ambivalent or mutable, without sound dynamic of security and insecurity nor power and resistance.
		The rhizomatic expansion of late modern ‘surveillant assemblages’ is purported not only to enable important transformations in the purpose and intention of surveillance practices, but to facilitate a partial democratization of surveillance hierarchies.

	TheFeature :: It's All About The Mobile Internet
		He has approached the idea of citizen-based webcam-monitoring from the perspective of wireless wearable computers rather than camera-equipped telephones, but his notion of "inverse surveillance" is a perfect meme for wider consideration at this time, now that all those cameras watching us have been joined by the cameras in our pockets.
		I used to think that citizen smart mobs of wearcam-wielding surveillants would have to wait for the era of affordable wearable computing, but I'm beginning to believe that Mann's vision is just the image we need to help us think about what we can DO with a world full of cameraphones.
		Mann notes that surveillance is about authorities watching from on high, but sousveillance is a down-to-earth human's eye view; surveillance cameras are usually automatic devices statically mounted on the ceiling, but sousveillance is human-situated and eye-level; activities are surveilled by authorities but sousveilled by participants; surveillance is secret but sousveillance is public.

		While sousveillance[1] has largely been looked at as a counterpoint to surveillance, and a way of surveilling the surveillors, in some ways I think it is potential far more intrusive than traditional state- and corporate- (or state-and-corporate) surveillance.
		Inverse surveillance will be made up of petites narratives.
		Like the blowback reaction of the Rodney King beatings, the power to demonstrate how police surveillence of persons, and the abuse of power, is indicative of an editing force towards, “covernment.” Such was the opinion of the visually impaired person who I had interviewed in preparation for an eyetap experiment.

	TheTransitioner.org : sousveillance
		Surveillance is French for "to watch" ("veiller") "from above" ("sur").
		Surveillance thus calls to mind Foucault's description of Bentham's Panopticon, with the "guards" having an omniscient "God's eye" view, looking down on the prisoners from above (both physically above, as well as hierarchically and spiritually above).
		When one or more parties to the conversation record it, we call that sousveillance, whereas when the conversation is recorded by a person who is not a party to the conversation (such as a prison guard violating a client-lawyer priviledge of a prisoner), we call the recording "surveillance".

		Often Covernment officials that use video surveillance try to prohibit others from taking pictures or video within their establishments or regimes, but on this day, many people will photograph these officials, their establishments, and their security systems.

		Whether terrorism is the work of a lone miscreant, a foreign government, or an "inside-job" by one's own government (or some mixture of these, such as a "blowback" response from injustices we inflict on others), it is the aftermath of war's equation or inequality that often has the widest felt impact.
