A conceptual piece with plinths and LED clocks in 2 adjoining spaces, controlled by a computer. In the first you are invited to press a button and informed it will not light the lightbulb now but the same time the next day. The second is similar except you are informed that the lightbulb will light in 100 years. The LED clock goes out while button is pressed.Electronics by James Morrall, software by Sasha Bilton.
