Description Chronophage 2

Our Time, World, Reality
How great are our achievements in the face of time?
How brittle is the dimensional plain holding us back from:
Oblivion, Eternity, Nothingness

How long will the field of time sustain us
How far will we drift in infinity
What has held us together for this long
What force controls our path

What will happen when the sands run out
What will happen when your time is up
What lies out side the glass
Chaos, Harmony, Power, Weakness, Unity, Fracture

Which of these will you show your life
Which of these have seen eternity
Which of these have heard the whispers in the dark
Which of these have heard the thunder in the light

But such questions don't bother you
Go back to your own little world

Retreat as deep inside as you can, where only you matter
Where you don't have to care

Ok so here's Number 5! Despite the fact hat it has a 2 in it.
Also this one feature the first piece of poetry I wrote for any of these! True I did write poetry for the others, but the idea didn't actually start until this piece since I wanted another way to try to express the meaning of the piece without outright explaining it.



This work was originally inspired by the Chronophage Clock [link]
An amazing piece of functional art, it is a clock designed to both move forward and backward in time. It accelerates and spins in random jumps but never is beyond 5 minutes away from real time, please watch that video its truly amazing. Chronophage = Time eater
My continuation of the idea concern the limited span of our individual times as the world "eats" our future at a rate of 60 minutes an hour. We waste so much of our lives with no thoughts to the future and beyond, all the while we sit on a tiny rock in the middle of a galaxy spinning at thousands of miles a second, with no clue when any random event could kill us all. So we don't think about it, we sit in our ordinary box homes and watch TV where all that matters are humans and our human problems, and then we dont have to care....

This is one of my favorite pieces you have made my friend.
This is absolutely epic. The city in the hourglass is genius, and the gears in the space are awesome as well.
5 stars.
