Agency constitutes an ongoing list of controversies linked to copyright, authorship and intellectual property, that witness hesitation in terms of the bifurcation in the classification ‘nature’ and ‘culture’. Agency calls those controversies "boundary-things", things that are on a border. Those boundary-things question the binary division between the common and the original, the ephemeral and the fixed, the idea and the expression, the human and the non-human, which are categories used in copyright law. These divisions can be summarized in a single one: that which opposes 'culture' to 'nature'. However, many practices are difficult to classify according to these two categories alone.

The controversies are from a period between the 17th century until today and from various territories around the world. Due to their ambiguous status, boundary-things bear witness to the redefinitions of law and its bifurcations. The documentation related to the things comes from case law (jurisprudence), but also from press articles. These are sometimes accompanied by the object of the dispute (specimen), if it is material and if it has been possible to collect it. Everything related to a dispute is placed in a numbered wooden box and stored on mobile shelving.
