In the artwork A Day in A Life an empty book is used as an intuitive non-numerical and non-symbolical time display. Starting with the sunrise, it is being flipped by an automated airflow. At midday, the amount of the pages which have been turned, roughly equals the ones which are still left. At sunset, the end of the book is reached. The book is used in an unusual way. It is blank, but can still be read - without the torturous precision of the signs and through the invisible power of an artificial wind. It reveals the time passed from the morning and the time left till dusk. It reminds of a bygone era, in which only the bright part of the day belonged to the active life.
