Surveillance State Wenlock
May 18th, 2012
Via: Forbes:
London decided to make its surveillance yen a dominant feature of its otherwise goofy mascots. “Wenlock� and “Mandeville� both have a huge single eye made out of a camera lens so that they can “record everything.� Image at right is from the official London Olympics website.
In case that’s too subtle for you, the Olympic organizers have offered a dress-up version of Wenlock in a policeman outfit.
…
It is not in fact a joke; Surveillance State Wenlock also shows up on the official shopping page for the London 2012 Olympics.
