After reflecting on our previous group discussion were we considered the clashing of religious identities, I came accross the widely distributed facebook presentation 'Joseph Kony 2012'. Produced by an advocac group, 'invisible children' the film calls for local celebrities and politicans to boost the hunt for the war criminal, who has continued to capture young children in Uganda for the past 30 years. The campaign is a case study which tackles how the web is changing political campaigning, and within the film appears a list of the 'most wanted criminals in the world'. In terms of creating a concept, we could consider the idea of 'exposing such criminals', making each one 'famous' in order to increase global awareness and to accelerate the prevention of such devastating happenings.
