Walking around public spaces, counting down loudly from ten on repeat. The action rises and the climax leads a quest into time’s unknown possibilities. The unavoidable references to Sylvester’s countdown, the bomb that is about to explode, the rocket that will fly to space, the green pedestrian sign waiting to light up in the street crossing, shape the anti-climactic - or even climactic - pauses produced in between. Each repetition is a call for action, an activation of expectations, an attribution of value to constant flux and its own vanity.
