A project about stealing time - Half Time Project- (Futsal, Boxing) / TAKEHIRO IIKAWA
The project is about steal the "time" from one person.
You will see the Futsal and the boxing match. In the game and match, one player doesn't know that the duration of the match is shortened to half than usual. Everyone else knows besides him. For example, the duration of Futsal match is five minutes, but actually it is shortened to two and half minutes.
I steal the half length of the game of a player; in a football game, I ask all the players except a target player to play as usual though the game will end half the normal time and I shoot the target player in secret to watch how he reacts not knowing the fact. We tend to take concept of time for granted, but after watching the video we realize that time is just an unstable rule among us.
