Passengers are constantly watched and ‘managed’ by the use of surveillance cameras, biometric technologies and assessment of their biographical profile\cite{lyon}. The use of such control mechanisms increases the alienation and the disembodiment of passengers from the physicality of space\cite{absent}: airport security requires passengers to constantly prove their identity by matching their ‘flesh bodies’ against their relevant ‘digital bodies’: ‘image archives and credit card purchases, social security information, and travel itineraries’\cite{fuller:2003}. This blend of oppressive mechanization and heightened security systems contributes in shaping not only the social practices of moving passengers, but also the architecture of airports that has to adapt to the conceptual requirements of these systems. Such excessive need for efficiency renders airports much like the ‘operating machines’ described by Michel Foucault in his metaphorical discourse around prisons\cite{foucalt_prisons}. Airport passengers are essentially tagged with information — they are metadata. Based on their tags — business class, first class, gold card member, economy — they are compelled to dwell and act within specific areas of the airport — priority check-in, priority boarding, business lounge, ordinary waiting rooms [1].
