Staging an Important Interactive Fringe Show: Paul Levy talks to Geoff White and Glenn Wilkinson about The Secret Life of Your Mobile Phone

Paul Levy talks to Geoff White and Glen Wilkinson about The Secret Life of Your Mobile Phone.

What does your phone get up to behind your back?
Why does the battery go flat even when you’re not using it?
What’s it telling spies, governments & shadowy corporations?

“The Secret Life of Your Mobile Phone is a unique stage show: a real-time, interactive journey into the hidden world of a gadget you probably thought was on your side…. It is the brainchild of ethical hacker, Glenn Wilkinson (companies pay him to break into their computer systems – he’s very good at it) and tech security journalist Geoff White (his exclusives have covered everything from Russian hacker gangs to internet dating fraud). In under an hour Geoff and Glenn demonstrate, live and in real-time, the data constantly leaking from your phone. Using cutting-edge technology they show where the information goes, who gets it, and how it can be used to track and target your every movement.”

“The performance tackles some of the most newsworthy aspects of tech today: data leaks, nation state hacking, and of course the ubiquitous smartphone. We aim to educate the audience rather than leave them bamboozled.
