Our allies operate in places we have never seen. The keyboards they type on may have been produced in the same factory as ours, but the lunch they eat is prepared by people we don’t know. Yet there is a sense of connectedness between us, as if we were following a secret plan.

This is not true. We can only make a guess at how they feel. We track their status reports and analyze their lives from our screens. Bruno Latour describes “association” as a form that creates connections between actors while maintaining differences between them. Association is the structural principle of this screening, which was jointly curated by five international art collectives according to a Cadavre Exquis principle and explores the tension between automation and improvisation in globalized production chains of goods and images.
