24 hours

14/15 June 2023

For 24 hours, I drove an improvised route,
with a 10-minute break every hour,
eventually arriving back at the starting point.
Drawing of the GPS track on a satellite photo.The drive started in Dordrecht (NL) on June 14, 2023 at 10 pm
and ended on June 15, 2023 at 10 pm.
The total distance was 892 kilometres.

24 hours is related to the works:
L’espace vingt-quatre heures (2020) and
Nycthemeron (2021).

During a train journey,

and as I looked outside,
I listened to the audio file in reverse.
