An installation exploring the distortion of time and space, tracking bar drinkers to create a composite temporal image of activity.

'Hurry Up Please : IT'S TIME' offers an expansion on the drinker's eternal concern for questions of time.

A wide-angle mounted above the bar orthogonally scans the surface of the bar and its neighbouring space for activity.

Computer vision scans the scene, comparing pixels adjacent in time, calculating the geography of activity.

A co-located overhead projection then projects back downwards, precisely mapping an abstracted video of the scene with a composite temporal image.

Pixels that have been constantly active, repeatedly over-written by people's movement, update to real-time; pixels that have seen little activity slumber in archival mode, playing back older views of the bar until activity is intense enough to accelerate playback back into real-time.

Continual excitement of the pixels over-exposes them towards white-out, theatrically illuminating the most active zones, tempting drinkers to calibrate their movements in order to alter the exposure and discern the video image.

The projection plays back simultaneous fragments of disparate time - a 4-dimensional document of the larger shape of space and time.

A light mist heightens the weight and volume of this luminous flux.
