...almost a Mona Lisa smile. So I started wondering about who he was. I began reading his old editorials in the bound volumes of the Yale Daily News, and his style in those old papers sounded just like the early voice of TIME. It was very flip, brash, clever, a lot of short sentences. It was full of energy. That's when I started thinking much more seriously about the plaque in the building's lobby, which has Briton Hadden's name and the inscription: "His genius created a new form of journalism."

...very clever. They wanted to be the launch partner for building the following: putting ads in front of their video content and jointly serving the resulting product off third-party sites, which is a huge distribution network for us.

Yet discussing his work in the chic, spare Paris apartment cum think space he shares with graphic designer Francesca Grassi, Huyghe is all seriousness. In explaining that clever calendar, he launches into a discussion of what he calls "time protocols," raising questions about what an exhibition is ("Why should it last 11/2 months - why not 10 years or five seconds?") and what an artist does ("Am I just something that is for people's free time?"). He works...
