Download the .pdf press release here! Humans Since 1982, a million timesWe are delighted to unveil the 'A million times' installation, made of 288 special two-handed analogue clocks powered by 576 electrical engines to drive the minute- and hour hands independently. All 288 clock houses together create one giant display similar to that of a digital display, all hands move to their new location, creating a choreography of 576 rotating hands to form extensive texts besides elaborate customized patterns and graphics. With this unique installation, Humans since 1982 finalised the clock projects and their escape from a solely pragmatic existence. Locked in its functionality to show the time, the natural character inherent to an analogue clock with its two arms constantly dancing in slow motion around the center, unveils hidden figurative qualities without denying its primary purpose. As such the ‘A million times’ is a graphically conceptual, engineered based design project relating the digital, alphanumerical and geometric type font possibilities in general of the typical analog clock. To be unveiled at Design Days Dubai end of March, the 'A million times' installation will welcome visitors at the entrance but you lucky people can already watch it on our website!
