WOUND is a study center for practices of listening and collaboration. The exhibition has been conceived of and designed by Caroline Woolard A'07 as a practice space for “the mending of time and attention.”

The study center offers free trainings in listening, attention, and collaboration, all of which foreground the relationship between capitalism and time, practice and temporality. Trainings are led by Ultra-red, Shaun Leonardo, the Order of the Third Bird, Project 404, Sick Time with Canaries, the Design Studio for Social Intervention, Adelheid Mers and the Extrapolation Factory. WOUND displays a collection of sculptural tools which can be used by visitors who have been trained by exhibition staff. Outside of training hours, the study center is a quiet place to sit, read and contemplate conceptions of time as articulated by Chloe Bass, Matthew Buckingham, Judith Leemann, Dave McKenzie, Linda Montano, Yoko Ono, taisha paggett and Ashley Hunt, Danica Phelps, the New York Horological Society and the National Watch and Clock Museum.
