The installation Logging the Present draws on the work of the eminent Polish author of concrete poetry Stanisław Dróżdż (1939–2009), in particular his piece Untitled (Clocks) [Bez tytułu (zegary), 1978]. In this work, Dróżdż developed his own system which allowed him to control clocks. His concept, based on combining clock hands that engender their own time, inspired the young Czech author Richard Loskot to produce 12 systems in which each measures its own time upon different actions. Hyperbolically speaking, the author offers various time measuring models based on water dripping, plant growth or rotation of the gramophone record. In the second part of this installation, the viewer is incorporated into the temporary image.
