Screen shot from "Vanishing Surveillance: Securityscapes and Ambient Government"—excellent short lecture by Professor David Murakami Wood, Canada Research Chair in Surveillance Studies (how's that for a job title) of Queen's University.  

In the talk Murakami Wood covers millennia of security measures built on landscape manipulations and other naturalistic techniques to lead into a theory of immanent "ambient government"—sensorial presences of the State so ubiquitously and subtly embedded into the environment that they are almost indistinguishable from nature.

Modern Marvel Comments

We are thankful and proud to have been included in the #ModernMarvel show on the @HistoryChannel this past Friday. We have received many kind comments, emails, and tweets about the show. We are waiting for the History Channel's DVD so we can have the video online shortly.

With that said . . . what is next on the horizon at PacTec? Currently, we are working on the new UK and Philippines websites as well as the company Facebook page. We are working with @AdamCulpepper and his crew at @Transformyx. I recommend following them on Twitter! What we have coming online with them is going to be really great.

We will also be at Waste Management Symposium 2011 in Phoenix in late February! We will be at booth 720, so please come by and say hello! We will have a bag on hand that is the same bag that was on the History Channel!

If, you didn't get a chance to see the show but want to read about it, here is a link to the Baton Rouge, @2theadvocate , with a story about #PacTec and the show.

PacTec Announces It's New Website!

PacTec has launched its new web site in conjunction with the new year. The revamped site was designed with a focus on the end user so that visitors will be able to access more information faster and easier, while also allowing the company to connect with customers via social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

“PacTec needed a web presence that matched our capabilities,” stated Jason Durham, marketing communications and creative director. “We improved the navigation and there are more dynamic elements throughout. The site will allow customers to get quotes and information faster. With this new site, we are not just the leading manufacturer in our industry, but we are on the cutting edge of the technology used to communicate to our customers.”

The site was designed in-house by the PacTec marketing communications department. Programming and content management was developed in partnership with Transformyx of Baton Rouge.
