The name of Stockholm-based studio Humans Since 1982 is a nod to the birth year of its two founders, which might shed some light on their ongoing project “A Million Times,” a collection of kinetic sculptures with analog clock hands that have been programmed to rotate each minute to display the time in a digital format. The choreographed clocks remain their best-known work, and it’s the type of mash-up between retro and cutting-edge technology that a pair of elder millennials—old enough to cherish analog, young enough to be digital natives—would think to create. Seeing each of the synchronized hands turn and rearrange in harmonic unison to the next formation is visually arresting, like watching a finely tuned marching band or a Sol LeWitt composition in motion.
