"JETZT" (NOW)

On top of a 15 m high fassade-wall a man is sitting on a metal chair. He sits there every evening over a period of three week, watching the street-crossing below. A large rectangular box containing a strong flashlight is fixed beside his chair. At some rare moments during the evenings, the man decides to mark the present moment by pressing a button. The word JETZT (german for NOW) flashes into the dusky sky.
