We, whoever happen to be here, invite three performance artists who work as a
collective. With the help of amazing organizing impulses, they manage to fly 80000
km (50000 miles) in a calendar year. They are Premiere Executives. Their elite status
is constantly renewed by UNITED.

Once, they came upon UNTIED.com, where UNITED employee complaints are made
available to the public. The three performance artists made a project inspired by the
complaints of UNTIED (dance, music, text, ready-made, and monuments). One thing
they made a mental note of was the fact that "the cabin attendants of UNITED formed
the first union of its kind in 1945."

Three performance artists are now heading here right now to give us a performance of
UNITED and UNTIED.

A: Scores:
1. Dance (Performance Artists are Premiere Executives)
2. Dance with object (a large panel from the storage)
3. Text performance in relation to bodies (How to earn 80000 km in a calendar year)
4a. Fake Beer (Food Sample, gathering unlimited)
4b. RIOT THE BAR (empty bottles, appropriation of past performance)
5. CD: "I am an employee of United" (Voice of them with some instruments)
6. UNTIED monuments (moving)

B: Installation:
Table with chairs (a video monitor and a CD player with speakers)
Fake Beer
