Once, in the deserted streets of seized Leningrad, the synchronized ticking of metronomes served as a powerful symbol of resistance against oppression and a beacon of hope for the future.
Through its regular ticking, PLANKTIME reminds us of the enduring spirit of those who refuse to be silenced and continue to fight for freedom, free thought and democracy.
On the Tokelau atoll, where each new day commences, a PLANKTIME server selects 24 random "tick" intervals at midnight. These intervals can range from a single tick to a maximum of one minute of continuous ticking. The active replicas have the autonomy to either adhere to or disregard these designated moments.
Find the current ticking moments here.
