Sandrine Schaefer, excerpt from Pace Investigations No. 6 (spring + summer 2018) by The Present Tense

In the 1850’s The Waltham Watch Company developed machinery that produced interchangeable parts. This influenced the mass production of timepieces on a global scale and consequently privileged a shared time consciousness still felt today. Pace Investigations No. 6 was a yearlong performance artwork that explored Waltham's historic role in the mass synchronization of mechanical time, considered pre-colonial understandings of time buried by industrialization, and proposed ways time might be measured in the future. Beginning on the 2017 Autumnal equinox, Pace Investigations No. 6 repeated at dawn and dusk on the equinoxes and solstices for a full calendar year. Sited on a public pathway nestled between the historic Waltham Watch Factory building and where the Charles River runs along Mount Feake Cemetery, the actions and materials of the performance were site-specific. The duration of the performance adapted to changes in sunrise and sunset times from season to season. video by Sue Murad
