A visual representation of a short recording taken from an internet radio channel programme where listeners call in to read the love poetry they have written. This paragraph is a brief warning announced before the start of the programme.
I chose to represent it as a joke, rather than taking it seriously, because obviously a warning serves no purpose in such a context. The final piece is a square banner, referencing Futurist typography and the structure of a radio script.



Time is a fictional system we create to believe in. Realfake challenges our deep-rooted perception of Time and asks if it is possible that we reject the current system.
The numbers on the clock rearrange randomly every minute, forcing the clock hands to follow suite. The accurate time is read by the numbers and not by the positions of the hands which we are so familiar with. Time is read by the minute hand every 5 minutes.
