    Federico PĆ©rez Villoro’s installation No Distance , on view at CANK in Neukƶlln, documents the material traces of the global network of submarine fiber-optic cables that sustain online connectivity. It displays a selection of carefully identified satellite images to reveal the scars – the physical impact – of an infrastructure that seeks to remain unnoticed beneath the ocean.

    Presented by HAU, Anan Fries’ new performance LORECORE is a live-generated video essay brought to life by three performers and a robot cat. Dealing with the logic and functioning of techno-fascism, the performance asks what synergies arise from the convergence of the tech industry and the New Right.
