The Hibernation Calendar

January 10, 2009

The chrono-shredder by Susanna Hertrich is probably the coolest calendars i have ever seen (and i have seen A LOT of calendars). Susana, i can has plz?

From the site:

The Chrono-Shredder is a device that reminds us of the preciousness of our lifetime. It represents the passing of time by shredding the days of the year – printed on a paper roll – at a slow constant rate. To shred one day takes 24 hours. There is no “off”-button. As the seconds pass by, the tattered remains of the past pile up under the device…

This project asks, what people would do if there were given the ability to hibernate — and so, stop their natural ageing. Would they regard natural ageing as threat? Will they start counting their “awake” hours like they count calories today?
