Summary
Insomnia shifts in sleeping habits go together with major changes in our ways of living. Today we are witnessing a corresponding shift, in which the possibility of direct communication at any geographical distance shatters the 24-hour rhythm of the time zones. We have the possibility of doing everything regardless of what time of the day it is. 'Insomnia' aims to draw a map of the sleepless state that this accessibility creates. With contributions from Siri Hustvedt, Sara Arrhenius, Carsten Holler, Rafael Rozendaal and others.
