In addition to projects like the ones above, a “CityCam” project was started wherein a fixed camera takes a single exposure each day of a city from an overlook. This creates an even record of mutation and change. The application of this data is unknowable, but certain to be of value. Similarly, there’s a photo technique evolving in architecture for revealing the guts and surface of a building at once through repeated multiple exposures of a single frame - it renders the structure of buildings visible, within an equally visible facade. Spooky but cool expression of time through architecture (which seems static from our normal point of view).

Cultural perceptions of time is a subject that goes WAY beyond the differences between New Yorkers and Europeans. My recent experience working with Native Americans introduced me to the idea that because there’s an endless supply of time stretching far off into the distant future, there’s no need to worry about getting something done by a certain date –it will eventually get done because there’s no such thing as “running out of time.” Hard to explain to construction contractors and project installers, but the serene delivery of the concept by a tribal member leaves one rather speechless. OK, my work is finished and has been waiting for two years to be delivered. I guess I’ve got the time! The Long Now Foundation projects take a similar view: there is no deadline; there’s plenty of time; it will get done.
