The conference examines artistic processes and forms that deliberately challenge continuous time or break with chronology. This can mean, for example, that writers, musicians or artists repeat themselves, take up supposedly obsolete (media) techniques, work in outdated genres or simply ignore the current developments of an artistic field. The articulation and evocation of the experience of no longer being a contemporary of one's own epoch has often been described as a typical feature of late works and theorized as such.
