Time flows without any intention. Yukinori Tokoro decided to record the events that occur within one second in his hometown of Shibuya, to visualise the undeniable mercilessness of the flow of time: a girl runs through the same second in which buses park in perfect alignment, and transient people are completely unaware of the brief but spectacular show of light and its reflections. Standing still in the middle of Shibuya, he observed that people and cars never stand still even for a moment, and realised that the movement of light and shadow never pauses either: reflected from buildings and cast on the street, light keeps shifting position, from one building window to the next, onto the street and onto the passing people and cars, unfolding a labyrinthine cityscape.
