Fiete Stolte
book
Hans Ulrich Obrist Do you always know what time it is in your world?
Fiete Stolte Yes, more or less. But unfortunately I have no clock at the moment. And I never wore a wristwatch in any case.
HUO So it’s more just a hunch?
FS Yes, although luckily the exact time tends not to matter much in most cases. That suits me very well. Day follows night in my world, too, but it’s a different rhythm that is no longer dependent on the sun.
Fredi Fischli Do you do a lot of work at night?
FS Yes, I do. But night means something different to me, because it’s no longer defined by darkness.
HUO How many hours of sleep do you get at night?
FS It varies.
FF How long have you been living according to this rhythm?
