The video guides visitors through the Volunteer's Dilemma, exploring the logic of this theory of decision making and its close ties with contemporary computational processes.

This is punctuated by stories from interviewees who work in jobs that are dominated by software and computational processes. It is clear from these interviews how the computational environment is both a disciplinary system and surveillance space, an environment where the rigid strictures of scripts and processes dominate the workers everyday.
