Hand Written Clock

Posted by samzenpus on from the up-to-the-minute dept.

a3buster writes "This clock does not actually have a man inside, but a flatscreen that plays a 24-hour loop of this video by the artist watching his own clock somewhere and painstakingly erasing and re-writing each minute. This video was taken at Design Miami during Art Basel Miami Beach 2009."

    "Think it through. I don't think I need to explain how."

    Actually I think you need to think it through and an explanation on how he could do all 12 hours by just doing 1 hour is necessary.

    My question is when does the next minute begin? When he finishes cleaning everything off or when he begins wiping it off? I'd probably buy this if they offered it as a computer program and set it up on a tablet inside a box.
