The Timekeeper

The Timekeeper is a photo poem that captures the author's evolving relationship with time through the lens of nature and the self. It documents the struggle with time blindness, the inability to sense the passing of time, a symptom of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It is an attempt at reclaiming personal freedom under the soft guidance of nature.

We want to protect your privacy

A website that contains such buttons transmits personal data to the relevant social networks without your consent. You do not have to have pressed the button for this. This contradicts the German data protection regulations.
In order to protect your privacy, the Goethe-Institut uses a so-called 2-click solution. This is used in a similar form by numerous website operators and is very easy to use.

Recommend article on goethe.de

This is how the 2-click solution works: When you are on goethe.de, the recommendation function of the buttons is inactive by default. With just a few clicks you have the opportunity to change this:

1. With the first click an explanatory window opens.

2. With the second click you can give your consent for the recommendation function of the social networks to be activated.
