When working on timinutterpause* (ten minute break) Kristina Junttila posed the following question to people at different work-places: If you had a ten minute break from where you are now, and you could do anything, what would you do?

On the basis of this Junttila gave an audience the possibility to experience five of these dream-breaks at different times and locations:

timinutterpause by Kristina Junttila investigates how it is possible to bring imagination to people and places without rejecting the real surroundings. timinutterpause was performed at SENEXT! performance festival, Tromsø in August 2005. It was the winner of a grant from the same festival.
