Audio-loop, 25 minutes, in English, on 4 speakers

71% (play) is an audio installation consisting of four speakers, giving insights into a day of the protagonist, split into the speakers M1+M2(choir), M3 and M4. Their interaction is determined by messages she receives from apps specialised in sleep and time management. She's currently in a transition phase from monophasic sleep towards a more timesaving polyphasic sleep, namely the Everyman sleep schedule, consisting of a 3,5 hours core sleep and 2 20min naps each 6 hours. A glimpse into a probably never-ending loop of improvement. Is there still time for spontaneous decisions? Is there still room for idleness? What's the role of the social environment?
