During a single signal cycle at Kinro-Fukushi-Kaikan-mae crossing on a certain day in September of 2008 in Shibuya, Tokyo, hundreds of people and cars passed each other with no lasting memories. Every seven seconds within that cycle, photographic images recorded this series of happenstance moments. The images were then reproduced and fragments removed, symbolizing how memories and events gradually recede from our awareness.
