Standard Time

Standard Time is a sculpture about time. Seventy workers are building a large wooden time display in real time: a work that involves 1611 changes within a 24-hour period.

Seamlessly documented and shot on video, the 24-hour movie is synchronized in real time on your device and can be used as a clock.

The performance is a race against the clock. Even though the workers are trying hard to construct every single minute, they are constantly on the verge of failing.

Standard Time is an artwork by Mark Formanek, realized by Datenstrudel.

PLEASE NOTE:

The Standard Time Project is a very large application. PLEASE BE PATIENT - download and syncing times can be longer. It is possible for the downloading and syncing to pause for up to 10 minutes.
