NEXUM ATM, an interactive video piece in the form of an ATM, presents a
histoy of US global imperialism toward ten small and largely poor

getting out of debt through slavery.

Accompanying the physical ATM is a web site:

administration by presenting information and links toward civil
mobilization. The site features an atlas of intervention, the Nexum
Anthem, interviews with individuals concerning the US's global status…
