New Media Thinking

Speculative Scernario.

Facial communication control equipped onto Peace Keepers to allow them to be used to communicate with occupied populations.

Facial muscle implants embeded onto Peace Keepers, and whilst on duty, they hand over control, essentially becoming 'Human Machines.'

This allows Peace Keepers to have a 'Neutral' balance when entering conflict situations so they do not appear to be taking one side or the other. However, they can also be made to adopt an aggressive state, when needing to put down possible conflict / civil unrest, to even a very happy or empathic state, to help them understand and build a relationship with the civilian population.

This project was part of Me Only Better, which investigated the different roles of future technology on the self.
I was Intersted in Millatry, as they often are the first to apply these new technologies, but often in a war like fashion. I wondered if they could infact have peacfull uses.
