Artistic imagery about the famous Bell experiments, with ballet dancers personifying experimental arrangements in space-time separated labs. The strings of ones and zeros allude to the violation of free choice while the cloud in-between refers to the lack of locality. Inspired by the profound discovery from quantum theory that certain experiments refute any explanation maintaining realism, locality and free choice, the scientists compare the weight of each assumption for causal explanations of observed correlations.
