Is time passing too quickly? The paradoxes of time. Does time exist? Is time an illusion?
Is time passing too quickly?
From the debate on the change of time in Europe to the feelings of refugees (how to envisage the future when you live in the temporary?), from Trump, president of the snapshot, to Tanzania, which wants to set the record straight in its administration, from infernal rates to shifts on Mars, from the biological clock to mechanical clocks, the problem of time crosses all fields.

The paradoxes of time
Is time an illusion? Does time have an end? Is time a luxury? Is time the same for everyone?

Does time exist? TED Ed 2018
Is time an illusion?
Time is easy to perceive, but difficult to define. It is modulated by our emotions in neuroscience, irreversible in statistical physics, only local in relativity, fluctuating in biology. Is it impossible to give a universal definition? For some physicists, time simply does not exist…

Time in art
Blog of Danièle Pérez (french)
“Three thousand six hundred times an hour, the second whispers: Remember.” This verse by Baudelaire could be used as an epitaph, as the anguish of time that passes is so universal. Art in all its forms (cinema, photography, contemporary art) will probably never stop questioning it.
«Trois mille six cents fois par heure, la seconde chuchote: souviens-toi.» Ce vers de Baudelaire pourrait figurer en épitaphe tant l’angoisse du temps qui passe est universelle. L’art sous toutes ses formes (cinéma, photographie, art contemporain) n’en finira sans doute jamais de l’interroger.
Appel à contribution de la revue Marges
Les temps de l’art / Time of Art
Il sera question d’interroger les différentes temporalités des mondes de l’art contemporain dans leur articulation et leur confrontation. Il s’agira de questionner les rapports temporels – de synchronie et/ou de diachronie – entre la conception, la production et la réception des différentes pratiques artistiques contemporaines. L’un des enjeux de la (des) temporalité(s) de l’œuvre d’art est de relever son action pragmatique, ses conséquences factuelles, sociales, sur une culture qui tend à se globaliser. Quelles sont les conséquences des temporalités des œuvres d’art sur leur mode d’existence, sur les rapports entre l’artistique et l’esthétique ?
Time again
New York – SculptureCenter is pleased to present Time Again, an exhibition that explores the language of repetition, bringing together works that destabilize conventional ways of seeing and considering what is past and what is present. Engaging gesture, image sequence, material affect, and displaced narrative, the works on view create disjunctions with the way the time of the present is experienced, challenging our understanding of what it means to be contemporaries. For a full exhibition description please view the Press Release. The Curator’s essay is available to download here. Curated by Fionn Meade, Time Again will be on view May 9 – July 25, 2011. An opening reception will take place Sunday, May 8th, 5-7pm and is open to the public.
Pages out of time
Sara J. Schechner and a few friends have assembled a multivenue exhibit called “Time & Time Again.” Through the lens of such craftily juxtaposed artifacts, the exhibit jars viewers into thinking about how time is measured and how conceptions of it change across cultures and epochs.

Design Ethics | 21–23.03.2019
Teacher: Annina Schneller
During this course we discovered how ethics should be part of design and life in general. Our decisions must be thought out so that the impact of what we produce has the least negative impact on people.
One exercise was to create a manifesto on our project.

In the left, the Golden Circle give a new vision of the project, it’s creativ, that’s open.
The word “Agora” (Greek history, meeting point in the village) give quick informations about the topic. We have images and emotions with the last sentence “Our roots are the future” (Rallying cry).
The teachers gave us their feedback on our project by choosing a TV advertising. For me, they chose Montblanc’s advertisement “The beauty of a second” made by Wim Wenders!
