As part of a course section "to get folk to reflect on how easily tracked we are through our computational devices" Tony Hirst introduces us to this art project called Artificial Senses, which "visualizes sensor data of the machines that surround us to develop an understanding how they experience the world". If you try the demo version the program will ask for a bunch of access rights, then display raw input from the computer's touchpad, camera, microphone, and GPS. It's raw data; you don't actually see pictures.
