"A remote-controlled zeppelin is making its rounds. Below, a flock of sheep reorganizing itself, changing its position, rearranging. In their interaction between individual and collective, a poetic choreography emerges in the glow of the silently flying object.
The physical presence of the sheep, their steaming excrements are in tension with the supposedly disembodied technical sphere that accompanies them. The animal in the light of institutionalized Power" (The Zeppelin was once a symbol of technical progress and, especially in the Third Reich, used for propaganda purposes and to demonstrate technical and cultural superiority. Therein lies a concept of technology as a medium for dominance and control.)"
