Something functional but ordinary - and why it is so fascinating

Clocks

Without time the world be in chaos.

Clocks are such ordinary, everyday items - yet so necessary and so powerful. With so much control.

The concept of time is created by humanity, and we live by it religiously. It helps to structure our days and our lives. Without it, everything would still go one, time would still tick away - technically, but the world would be lawless and lost.

And I wouldn’t hear the second hand quietly continuing as I fall asleep.

Clocks are beautifully crafted objects that sit in the background of our lives, ruling our days and our nights, our departures and our deadlines.

The cogs are infinitely clicking away (until the battery runs out)
