Thank You For Your Patience

Installation by Thijmen Peters

In our daily lives, we often encounter systems that make us wait. The information provided during these moments of waiting plays a significant role in our trust in a system.

The project “Thank You for Your Patience” aims to challenge this waiting dynamic between systems and their users. In the installation, people are invited to generate alternative delay announcements. These submitted announcements are then broadcast in a place for waiting. Ranging from bureaucratic, personal to odd, they evoke a range of emotions from confusion to joy and frustration. Through this interactive experience, the project prompts a playful reflection on our reliance on institutions and systems.
