LAAD

3D rendering, graphic design, 2019

Los Angeles Analytics Department (LAAD) is a graphical fiction that critically examines what police surveillance systems make visible to their subjects. The project highlights aspects of information-driven policing that the LAPD chooses to reveal and conceal to the public, by envisioning what its public outreach programs would look like if they concerned its data analysis and surveillance services, as opposed to its advertisement of community relations. Each of the LAAD initiatives interrogates how data analysis practices are designed to be perceived.
