As part of the #idéesdébats series organized in partnership with Le Lieu Unique and Nantes University, Félix Tréguer will share his reflections in the Habiter, vraiment? 2024-2025 cycle.
Drones, predictive policing, algorithmic surveillance—under the guise of optimization and decision-making assistance, these technologies are reshaping urban life into a vast surveillance enterprise. A macroscopic surveillance first, aimed at tightly managing population flows in real time. A closer surveillance of individuals and groups as well.
What does the proliferation of these technologies change in our relationship with the city, in the ways we move, meet, and dwell within it? And how can we resist?
