With this clock, time is really worth watching

I enjoyed The Guardian’s coverage of the chronophage. “Beware the time-eater: Cambridge University’s monstrous new clock includes a marvelous video. The official University of Cambridge video from the inventor and maker, Dr. John C. Taylor, provides more of the history and details. Neal Stephenson must be pleased that a new mechanical clock was introduced the same month as ANATHEM, his new novel which incorporates time’s march very literally. (I’ve finished ANATHEM, but need more time to share my thoughts.)
