All They Can (2019) is a web-based sentence generator by artist Zoe Chronis that explores pronoun swapping as a democratic discourse. The text for the piece was inspired by U.S. propaganda posters—some asking, “Are you doing all you can?” The work is informed by June Jordan’s “Problems of Language in a Democratic State” and Michael Warner’s “Publics and Counterpublics” (2002).
