Panoptic Institutions

This is an animation from the Northernly known David Firth.I chose this as another possible example of
panopticism. Obviously the school is an example of this, but if I fast forward to the part in the video, where the WCFBS(world centre for banning stuff) are the institutional power that dominates the viewers (entire public) by using quite blatant disciplinary techniques of responding to what they hear/see via a network of secret bugs, cameras, and undercover agents.

This helps to maintain social order by constantly being in the knowledge of what the public are doing in their homes, and eventually stirs the public to be in constant fear of what liberties will be taken away from them. This is also supported by the way the institute keeps order, by removing certain liberties such as privacy and objects that are relative to the norm of living, it slowly drives the citizens to madness.
Instead of hiding away certain individuals, or deviants, or miscreants etc, they segregate the entire "nations" sense of self, and as a result of their actions, the dominant power rips apart the individuals sense of self, and who they are in relation to each other.

At the end of the video, it becomes apparent that the situation has spiralled way out of control, with the dominant force losing all c ontrol of their once powerful institutional gaze, instead, the newly formed nation are now a collective of docile bodies! By eliminating the media threat that is always under survellience and rebranding of taboos that may damage us, they have created a panoptic utopia that Foucault would of had a field day at. After you watch your opinion may differ as to how relevant this particular example is, but I will think you will find it an interesting piece for discussion.

WARNING STRONG LANGUAGE. DO NOT WATCH IF EASILY OFFENDED.
