This Creative Culture Talk explores the narrative aspects of contemporary conspiracy theories. With scientists and creators, it investigates which characters, plot lines, motives and metaphors are central to radical political (online) discourses. What are the stories conspiracy theorists tell about themselves and the world, and where do they come from? Who are the bad guys, the good guys, the side characters, the extras? How can artists teach us to understand such stories?

Boris Noordenbos will make appearance together with theater makers Eva Line de Boer and Booi Kluiving, both of whom made performances about the radical aspects of online culture. In KEK, Booi explores the frayed edges of the right-wing internet subculture through his alter ego Anon. Eva Line's Infinity Chan is inspired by the story of Fredrick Brennan, the founder of the forum 8Chan, where racist, sexist and anti-Semitic messages are posted uncensored.
