24/7

Service, infrastructure, availability – 24/7 is working with these topics and the resulting power structures and commercialised services. The term 24/7 is frequently used for gas stations, convenience stores and other supply stations. It matches the registration centre for asylum seekers just as well – a permanent situation without a minute to rest.

For one week the bblackboxx was opened around the clock offering places to sleep, entertainment program, cooking possibilities, free internet, a café and yoga. A service hallucination between motel, mall and all-inclusive-club. With only two employees 24/7 was notoriously understaffed. Therefore the boundaries between service and do-it-your-self were fluid.
