Echoes from the everwhen is an installation performance lecture that explores the heterogeneity of time. It combines multiple elements: a series of accounts based on clock-time routines, a brief synthesis of Henri Bergson’s Time and Free Will, and a poem about a déjà vu experience.

The performance integrates live-feed camera projections and feedback sounds from the projectors, creating an ever-shifting harmony—or cacophony—within the space. Viewers are invited to interact with both the cameras and microphones using either provided objects or personal items.
