Death of a Viewer

The socially networked, digitally enhanced, and precisely locatable photographic image has become a two-way mirror. In one side we gaze and see ourselves reflected; in the other we become the ones observed through the images we willingly share with an unknowable quantity of non-human agents, controlled by a shape-shifting conglomerate of state authorities and corporate entities with a mandate to mine, manage and sell the data we generate.

The displacement of the viewer goes even further if we consider the possibility that humans might no longer be the paramount viewers of the networked image. Sometimes we are its tools, sometimes we are its accidental consumers, its trained creators, its targets.

We are the ones being seen, counted, located, surveilled through our own images and their metadata, created for the non-human viewer, which can be both an algorithm computing how much nudity our selfies contain, or a drone that studies our movements and calculates whether we can be labelled as targetable participants in a conflict zone. Something is looking back at us from the other side, and that gaze is not human, not overseeable, not controllable, not any longer.

This has nothing to do with artistic neighbours debating their turf.

The everyday then is a highly contested realm — a realm of biopower. As Byung-Chul Han suggests in Psychopolitics 8 , this positivistic myth about the autonomous spectator is kept alive to preserve the belief that we have freedom, that we have agency, choice, power. What his distopic analysis of our current predicament fails to take into account, is that both the surveillance society and the autonomous spectator remain anchored in historical notions about the omnipotence and sovereignty of the human subject. Like the algorithms that dominate our lives, they are stuck together in a past that forecloses the future.

What all this does point to, is an unresolved tension within our societies that coming decades will have to address, not just in the interest of our species, but for the sake of the entire planet of whose ecosystems we are but a part. New common ground can be found together, while salvaging or collectively agreeing on values that ought not to be lost if mankind is to retain some humanity beyond the humanistic subject.

Ewen refuses but asks Bennion to visit the family home of Welton Priory "in that charming part of the country where Sussex joins Hampshire". Several Labour MPs are meeting there that weekend to secretly discuss plans to make the party more Socialist. Bennion's presence will suggest the gathering is the usual sort of house party -- and while he's there perhaps he'll persuade Ewen's father to buy him, Ewen, a house or give him an allowance!

The Henshaws will also be attending as Ewen's guests, and thus the wheels of the plot begin to turn. Before too long there are interesting conversations overheard, furtive visits to bedrooms, and fiery political rhetoric that does not go down too well with the MPs. The viewer's death occurs in a room full of people during a TV play about the Battle of Britain, and with very little to initially go on except a scrap of paper and a house full of suspects Bennion and Scotland Yard's Superintendent Yeo and Inspector Allenby cooperate to solve the crime.

Ewen gets on his soapbox and in doing so reminds readers of the unrest in the air in the s, including calls for the abolition of hereditary titles, Church and union reform, disgust at the possibilities of easier divorce, and legalisation of what is quaintly described as the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah. These references will make the legendary Cheltenham colonels who so often write to the editor of The Times weep with joy, but alas they tend to swamp parts of the earlier part of the novel and do not add very much to the plot.
