Description

Partly inspired by the description of Taragorm in Michael Moorcock's Dorian Hawkmoon stories, who had a mask that was a working clock concealing his face. The word "face" has different meanings depending on whether it applies to a person or a clock, and Midjourney got very confused by what was a confusing prompt. What I was looking for - a Magritte-ish image of a person whose face is that of a clock - was beyond it, but this was its best effort, and it is intriguing.

Note that Midjourney has also got confused about the numbers. Reading clockwise, they are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13.
