The projection documents an interview organized by the artist between the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and the architect Rem Koolhaas being interviewed by an anonymous ghostwriter on the subject of interviewing. The film is edited so that only shots of the participants listening to one another are visible. The spectator never sees any speaking within the interview. The monitor shows a subtext rendered in white subtitled text on a background documenting an internal debate as to the significance of the work and appropriateness of the subjects and the chosen methodologies. 32:09 min.
