My aspirations in The Long Now installation are for the transformation in awareness of present time. We have so many markers of time which subtlety shift and redirect our understanding of placement. These markers are getting closer and closer together as we progress into the information age, and unfortunately as a whole, our ability to hold attention is weakening. This art installation aims at reconditioning our attention and awareness of time into a more developed muscle, which then could be used for the unimaginable.
