Chronoberg is a fictional city created to explore how societies organize and live with time. Rather than treating time as a neutral and universal framework, the project challenges taken-for-granted assumptions about time and examines how time is structured, governed, and experienced in different ways.

In Chronoberg, time is something people negotiate, contest, and experiment with. Some groups advocate standardized schedules that coordinate work, mobility, and public life. Others follow slower, relational or seasonal rhythms shaped by care, culture, or ecological cycles. The city therefore operates as a pluritemporal environment, where multiple ways of measuring and coordinating time coexist and sometimes conflict.

The project uses speculative storytelling and participatory formats to make these temporal arrangements visible. Through artefacts such as The Chronoberg Chronicle and immersive workshops, participants step into the city as visitors and explore how its diverse temporal systems shape governance, work, and everyday life.

By varying assumptions about time, Chronoberg invites participants to reflect on how different ways of organising time might transform collective life.
