Standard Time functions as a new civic clock. Projected in an empty shop window, this ‘digital clock’ tells the exact time of day. However it is actually a film of a 4 x 12 metre structure made of wooden planks rebuilt 1,611 times over the course of four shifts by 72 workers to create a physical 24-hour clock. Standard Time shows calendrical time quite literally as a man-made construct.
