Inspired by Fischli and Weiss (Lauf der Dinge [The Way Things Go], 1987), the work presents the claim of an interlinked digital network. Implicitly the work explores the question whether technological developments always contain the invention of their unintended uses and what potential can be surmised in this. The original material is found footage that shows the stages of breaking into an apparently closed digital system, from which a new experimental circulation is created.
