Rape by Yoko Ono and John Lennon

Yoko Ono and John Lennon’s Rape provides insightful commentary into the volatile and offensive nature of surveillance. By calling the reader to engage with issues of male privilege and the violence and violation existing in paparazzi, they open our eyes to our perception of celebrity culture and politicise the matter of public image in today’s contemporary society (Ono and Lennon, 1969). This inspired me regarding the intervention, as it was a simple yet effective way of engaging with the public. Filmed in a low budget style, the unspectacular nature of the film added to the raw, crude effect that Ono and Lennon were attempting to create. The film was also smart in the way it manipulated the camera angles to produce an invasive atmosphere.
