MUMBAI MOBILE OFFICE
Spot #5. Selling time. Mumbai from Time Notes Bank on Vimeo.
Spot #4. Buying Time. Mumbai. from Time Notes Bank on Vimeo.
For the exhibition ZNE! Examples to follow,
Galerie Max Mueller, Goethe Institute, Mumbai. February 2012
The office, using a kart, offered the Buy and Sell Time service.
Action. Video.
The action of buying time consists in asking the passing people about their most valuable day or more important year or a minute that has changed their lives, and “take it” giving a correspondent bill in return.
The action of selling time consists in asking them what would they do with an extra year, minute or day in their lives, and offering a bill with their wish written in it. If they do not have a clear idea in their minds, we can also offer bills of time that the office has already bought to another person, in order to suggest some ideas.
So, during the action, we collect bills with the most valuable moments (real and imaginary, from the past or for the future) of our “clients”.
Produced with the support of the Ministry of Culture of Spain, 2011.
And the support of the Goethe Institute Mumbai.
