The design of an information poster aimed at young people, raising awareness of online privacy and digital surveillance. Inspired by George Orwell's 1984, the layout combines literary quotation with official data in a dystopian, cyber-flavoured treatment, and also folds in practical advice on keeping your data safe.
At the centre sits an eye that is also a camera lens. Lines run out from it to the data, each with its source named: international reports on spyware, European rulings on the limits of mass surveillance, Italian cases of data collected and shared without consent. The research was the longest part of the job, because on this subject a figure without a source is worth less than nothing.
The lower section shifts register and turns to the concrete tools for protecting yourself. That's the decision holding the poster together: frightening an audience of fifteen-year-olds without giving them a way out doesn't produce awareness, it produces resignation.
