The german word “Sorge” (lat.=cura) means something like charity/worry/care
and Kapitalismus=capitalism
The sound installation confronts precise time data announced by one voice
with another one offering poetic and associative words. Every hour a time
engraving is produced randomly, and is stored in an archive accessible on
the website. From this archive the machine reads time engravings, and, at
the same time,selects simple terms (female voice: Michaela Ehinger) for
describing the human body.
All the time engravings are stored in an archive that is accessible via
the WEB site. Around 10,000 engravings are created each year.
