To Play (As Children Do)
Digital Expo — Bianca Carague
ACT Award winner Carrie Chen explores the thin line between care and control in a new 3D animation titled 'To Play (As Children Do)'.
Free as a bird? Or free as a child? And how free are children nowadays? In the fictional daycare centre, children are constantly surrounded by technology that monitors their play. The present technology also gathers data used to predict the kids’ future potential. Is it justified for the daycare centre to observe the children at play? And who is keeping an eye on our own playgrounds these days, both online and in real life? Will you join the conversation about play and surveillance?
