“It involves a minimum of spatial planning and a maximum of mindset” – that’s the kind of sentence that is heard when the business consultants of the Quickborner Team agency discuss the interior architecture of open-plan offices with major companies. Harun Farocki accompanied the Hamburg-based consultants with his camera for a year, documenting meetings and conversations. His film traces the essential nature of consultants, who style themselves as philosophers with flip charts and Post-it notes.

Followed by a talk with Bert Rebhandl
