Understanding Nordic Digital Order, UNDO, uses a combination of research, software development and artistic inquiry to critically investigate the digitalization of policing and public order in three Nordic countries, and to mobilize for the protection of civil rights in the age of Big Data.
UNDO PROJECT
The UNDO team conducts academic research that examines how data driven technologies affect not only crime solving/prevention but also social inequality and civil rights. We are rooted in the social sciences and in addition use artistic inquiry to produce a documentary film, and software development to build a counter-surveillance application. These efforts are part of a larger community infrastructuring process that incorporates academic research, art, and algorithm-making in the efforts of civil society to create and sustain spheres of critical public insight and protection of civil rights in connection to digital policing.
