Ticking Shadows

3 june 2024





In Ticking Shadows, a self-playing instrument translates binary data into graphical
notation, played by candles. This work invites you to listen to time slowing down and
presents a case against the Western concept of clock-time, which is a driver of utilitarian
modes of being where everything you do must be useful and has to matter.
The viewer always enters the piece at an unknown interval, making it impossible to
fully witness the completion of the score.
