References of "them" and "do"

Can you understand what the highlighted "them" and "do" refer to in the following context? It is very confusing for me.


Context:

There are psychoanalytic objects and there are art objects, all with varying degrees of materiality. Generally speaking, in both art and psychoanalysis the relationship between materiality – either actual materials and/or techniques and behavioural effects – and the intangible nature of the ideas and emotions that can be attached to them do not exist in a causal relation to one another. Here lies a common misunderstanding about what the relationship between art and psychoanalysis might be.

You ain't the only one. The writer messed up. Nobody thinks they need an editor. I make the same sort of mistakes all the time. It is the downside of modern word processing. It is too easy to hack out chunks of text and wedge them in
