Hi Dave, Hope this finds you well!
Its a fascinating research you are doing. Might sound a bit off, however, for me, the interest in the time/period element of reading books is very interesting because it is, for me, precisely what make the experience of book reading, as a whole, different to other entities/media.. Perhaps, if you want, you fancy doing a presentation at digihub's art and chat? details: http://digihub.org.uk/art_chat_monthly (we have one coming up for the 30th.. ..and people can skype/google_hangout in..) Re Singapore - am personally not connected to them at all. Have no idea about the rules they were on about in the blurb. However, if cars passing by could flip a book's "pages", maybe there's a way to play with that time element in that context.. humm.. no? Have fun and all the best!
