According to Baudrillard, reality TV

Pinoy Big Brother program. One of the programs obsession of many Filipinos. The most popular Reality TV Show Now in our country. Why do so many Filipinos are following it?
From the idea of simulacrum of Baudrillard, Debord's concept that The Society of the spectacle and the metaphor of Foucault's panopticon, this paper is about the house of Big Brother (brother) as a panopticon, the innovative "copy" of the panopticon "real life" in space "virtual" and where it having heradesign its own reality priceless "referent" in the day-to-day heradesign reality outside the frame of the television.
According to Baudrillard, reality TV "also serves to satisfy heradesign our Thirst for voyeurism, invasion of privacy and as Baudrillard states, it increases our Fascination with the obscene. It is an exercise of 'desiring to be seen' and desiring the Other to return our gaze, as we desire that the mock celebrity reality television affords. In witnessing the privation of its participants, simultaneously we are also celebrating our comforts, so that there is a sadistic element to taking pleasure in watching the sufferings of others and work as well. 1
Pinoy Big Brother, the voyeurism is built and revolving in space panopticon, a concept borrowed from Foucault's Jeremy Bentham (1791). As the burden of Disciplinary Power, the panopticon is an architecture designed for inmates. It is a circular prison where its center is a tower seeing all the acts and actions of its inmates. As the guard tower also remains latent in the eyes of its prisoners. Due to the design of the tower it is assumed that only inmates that conform to the law of watching it. For whoever kept its catch to make undesirable punishment is given. It is nagpoprodyus of "regulatory behavior" because with or without sentinel above the tower (do not see its inmates), the convict is consistent with the law and wishes tower.
The point of the panopticon is not the idea that there is active surveillance that can affect the behavior of the inmates but the structure of surveillance, active or not, it is nagpoprodyus of conforming behavior.
If so, the brother's house serves panopticon prison where the housemates here. As was Big Brother also serves as a metaphor guards look at all the action and movement of the housemates. He never sees her housemates and only voice they just heard. And if any of the housemates violated the law in its home will be given punishment. Aside from knowing that the housemates in the house of brother brother was not only visible but also they do the followings. The followers therefore also plays different role - as the "alter ego" Big Brother and as "Outpost" as the panopticon heradesign - the "Little Big Brother" which owns different devices "gaze" and methods of surveillance (their eyes and the TV set) That they not only conform to the wishes of brother but also the image that they display in its tracks. If acceptable image they show people they can identify and have good careers. But if not they can not relish the manunuod. This innovative panoptic discipline that pinaiinog of reward and punishment. If they comply with the law's brother they are given rewards. (Depending on the task to be given by brother) and if not they can give punishment. (Such as automatic nomination.) Add you still there watching people who will decide who will be retained inside the house by voting. It simply means that the discipline within brother's house and the housemates were divided into "true" and "false." These housemates will not only conform to the law's heradesign brother but also to those who follow it. They might say individually packaging to be acceptable to the people. And also for long stay indoors and hoped to win the prize.
According to Foucault, "Panopticon heradesign was also a laboratory: it could be used as a machine to carry out experiments, to alter behavior, to train or correct individuals. To experiment with medicines and monitor Their effects. To try out different punishment on Prisoners every day to Their crimes and character, and to seek the most effective ones. To teach different techniques simultaneously to the workers, to decide Which is the best. & #
