A security Guard is on duty surrounded by TV monitors showing footage from CCTV cameras around the town centre. The following pages fuse video clips filmed using CCTV cameras with bugged tape recordings of the security guard as he talks to himself in the control room. In the staged version of the project these video clips were combined with the Security Guard's live performance of these monologues. To access and play these files you will a piece of software called a Real Player. Real Players are free and easy to download - just click on the button on screen and follow the simple instructions.

They are much quicker than more traditional downloading mechanisms - saving your phone bill. The often distorted picture quality is an added bonus here, helping to convey the grainy texture of real CCTV footage.

For the purposes of the drama it fuses the sound of the voice of the Security Guard recorded in the control room with a sequence of images recorded through the town's CCTV camera network. It is as if the Security Guard is talking to himself, unaware of the bugs, whilst surveying his patch.
