Ordinarily a clock is an instrument used to indicate, keep, and co-ordinate time. Commonly it is understood to tell the time.
Time is universally accepted as part of a measuring system used to sequence events. The earth rotates about its axis once per day; a day is a sequence of 24 hours, a clock reports this 24 hour sequence numerically.
Story Time by Atelier NL with Laikingland isn’t an ordinary clock, it doesn’t tell the time as a sequence of 24 hours. It tells a story, a sequence of events.
“But, what’s the story?” inquires the guest.
“The story of my perfect day…” replies the Author.
“A selection of my favourite sonnets…” says the Poet.
“The chronicles of time…” comments the Historian.
Story Time is a wonderful wall mounted time-piece created to question our perceptions of time. |
