An Hour

Radar

A time-based performance commissioned to mark the launch of the Institute of Advanced Stuies' 2020/21 Time Programme.

An Hour is an online performance commissioned to mark the launch of the Institute of Advanced Studies&#x27; 2020/21 Time Programme.The work consists of performers attempting to silently count seconds for an hour, saying only each (supposed) minute out loud. The audience, gathered in the same Zoom call, watches and listenes to their attempts. In this, An Hour explores the concept of time as duration, and how we might experience time passing when we give ourselves over to it.The work creates a tension between the mechanical measuring of time and time as subjective experience, through performers&#x27; attempts to measure themselves against clock time. This tension is compounded by the knowledge that participants are being watched to ensure they comply with the instruction to sit and count time for an hour.The performance will be followed by a short discussion, and a symposium exploring how different disciplines conceptualise time.
