I put this together over the course of a week using a friends digital stills camera, that just happens to shoot a little video on the side. :) The most dificult thing, apart from watching iMovie 5.0 crash a lot and waiting for things to save and encode, was figuring out the best way to get it onto the web!  It's a 12.7 Mb file, so please be a little patient with it whilst it is loading!

The British governnment is continuing its push to ensure that every UK citizen will be required too carry the new ID card in the very near future. Opposition to the card has virtually collapsed in the wake of the London bombings.

The new card will carry a biometric scan of every individuals facial features, which will be placed on a national database, that can be matched with images accessible to police and security services from the 4 million CCTV cameras currently active in Britain. Charles Clarke, the Home Secretary, has said that the "facial images national database should be operational by December 2006"

I've been re-reading George Orwell's 1984, a book which is so eerily prescient, that it feels like it was written this week!

A society where all citizens are relentlessly scrutinized by the ever present eye of a totalitarian surveillance state. Where false beliefs are ruthlessly conditioned, and the media is systematically altered in real-time to conceal the facts. A world where freedom has vanished, and truth is deemed to be morally relative. Engaged in a never ending war, against an invisible enemy from within and without. Where dissidents, thought criminals, and P.O.W s' are routinely killed and tortured, and where orthodoxy means, you never question the authority of the all-powerful state.

Sound familiar!? If it doesn't now, it will soon!
