"Both “processor” and “procession” derive from the Latin verb procedere, which means “to step forward.” The procession is harnessed by narration, which lends it tension. Processions stage special passages of a narration scenically. Scenography marks them. Because of their narrativity, a particular temporality inhabits them. Therefore it is neither possible nor meaningful to accelerate their procedere. Narration is not addition at all. The procedere of the processor, on the other hand, lacks all narrativity. Its activity has no image, no scenes. In contrast to the procession, it tells [erzählt] nothing. It simply counts [zählt]. Numbers are naked. Process, which likewise derives from the Latin verb procedere, is poor in narrativity because of its functionality. This makes it different from narrative sequence, which requires choreography or scenography. The functionally determined process is simply the object of steering or management''.
