A woman and a computer. The screen as a window to the world. What is reality and what is distortion? What is image and what is believable? Distortion, interpretation, prediction? Experiences and hunches overlap. A fictional scientific experimental setup poses questions about the future and the danger of losing history.

The performer confronts her own three-dimensional presence with the two-dimensional world of countless YouTube videos. The future exists as an accumulation of events not yet realized and offers space for speculation. “Forecasting” (“Prediction”) is the last part of a trilogy and deals unpretentiously and humorously with today’s media society.
