OFF THE RECORD is an immersive performative lecture that unveils an algorithmic reality from the use of risk assessment tools by the Dutch Police. Grounded in real events, we delve into the complexities of algorithmic systems employed to predict youth crime. This lecture is an inquiry into our emotional reality within our digital landscape. Featuring a journalist; a police officer; a human rights lawyer; and 125 boys singled out as potential future criminals. OFF THE RECORD invites speculation and radical imagination, its core remains rooted in investigative research. Merging fiction and documentary, we ask the question: Who writes the script that dictates our lives?
With Nirit Peled, Janneke Remmers, Jelle Klaas
