Psychologist Barry Schwartz takes aim at a central tenet of western societies: freedom of choice. In Schwartz's estimation, choice has made us not freer but more paralyzed, not happier but more dissatisfied.

Barry Schwartz (born August 15, 1946) is an American psychologist. Schwartz is the Dorwin Cartwright Professor of Social Theory and Social Action at Swarthmore College. His books criticize modern western society, illuminating the underlying psychological plagues of our time.

Through the physical, prompt way of performance of Barry Schwartz, who uses mechanical phenomenas as the shrinking and expanding of metal under the influence of dry-ice and liquid nitrogen, to the deconstructed vans of Alex Adriaansens and Joke Brouwer, vans in which rags of text, images and sounds, taken from the electronic space, are performed. A transition and confrontation of two areas, presented through videoprojections, . monitors, cameras, satellite ., "optic nerves" (naked screens which can be moved over cables) and Barry Schwartz his physical presence.

The optic nerve, also known as cranial nerve II, or simply as CN II, is a paired nerve that transmits visual information from the retina to the brain. In humans, the optic nerve is derived from optic stalks during the seventh week of development and is composed of retinal ganglion cell axons and glial cells; it extends from the optic disc to the optic chiasma and continues as the optic tract to the lateral geniculate nucleus, pretectal nuclei, and superior colliculus.
