Добавлен 17 сен 2008
Over the last 30 years, John C Taylor has worked tirelessly to share his love of clocks with as many people as possible, striving to give access to his rare and unique collection that, if in institutions, would seldom be working and could only be viewed from a distance. John has participated in ground-breaking exhibitions in the UK, Europe and the USA. These include: Horological Masterworks in Oxford in 2003; Huygens’ Legacy at the Palais Het Loo in Holland in 2004; Time for Everyone at the California Institute of Technology in 2013; Ships, Clocks and Stars, originally at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London in 2014, followed by displays in Sydney, Australia and the USA in 2015; also, Innovation & Collaboration in London in 2018 and solo exhibitions, The Luxury of Time at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh in 2019 and at the Manx Museum in Douglas, Isle of Man in 2020. In March 2024 he launched the Clocktime Digital Museum.

bello!
bello!
the download link didn't work for me... too bad, but this video is fun!
I wish i had it. i would take it to the scrap yard.
if i become a billionaire i will try to get this !
Absolutely brilliant.
But did the grasshopper have to be so creepy looking?
Wonderful piece of art. Loved it
It's ugly, sorry LOL!!!
strange as a clockwork orange!
Great concept elaboration. Time is always of essence!
A wonderful device! very artisitic, too.
The new teacher tried to give them work but they still just texted. I don't know where they are now...
What you want me to be flowers and butterflies, while you call me, my family, AND my friends fat and stupid, because we live in a country that saved your countries ass a few times. Only the people who are younger 25 in the US are stupid.(I blame it on drugs and the fact that parents today just let their kids do whatever they want.)[Last year in my class two students just sat and texted on their phones without doing any work, the teacher didn't care and got fired.]
Steam engines also can be our future, because they don't need to burn coal; they can use any fuel that gets hot enough to boil water(Clean or dirty). I still take your comment as a insult, most likely along with others.
Also I read that in your "about me"(That you didn't put a soul thing about you...) you said that Einstein's theories on time would be proven wrong, you do know that a test with two atomic clocks, one in a plane one on the ground has proven that time is relative it your speed. The test showed that the faster you go the slower time progresses, it was only about a thousandth of a second or less I forgot what it said, but that still proved Einstein to be right.
Like picture said FUCK YOU!!!!!! I'm a 14 old American and I'm most likely smarter than you, can you restore a car or build a steam engine, or even explain how a steam engine works in super detail without a book? Answer probley NOT! So stop stereotyping because one guy couldn't tell the time. And I saw your cannel you are a nutcase so why are you even talking, and why am I bothering with a loony like you? I guess my rage to that comment.
@JohnF30Music its shiny?
ive just been in cambridge and seen this, it is realy cool!
When Professor Hawking unveils the clock, I wonder if he will give a brief history of the timepiece?
The alien-looking grasshopper is kind of scary, but it looks great, as does the rest of the clock. I wonder how that look for the grasshopper was settled on.
John Taylor is an undoubted genius but, after intitial admiration, more depth of thought concluded that this clock is just a folly and a complete and utter waste of TIME. No doubt it will prove popular but only among the followers of Harry Potter.
Simply beautiful !!!! A lot of details !!!
@g0vqw Wikipedia says "The clock is entirely accurate only once every five minutes."
that thing only takes up 60 watts???
Incredibly clever - every single function (seemingly random blinking, occasional slow seconds etc) is a product of the mechanical machinery of the clock - there are no separate devices, it's one mechanism. Also symbolically intelligent as a piece of art.
I want one of these for my room. It is one awesome clock.
It looks horrible; the "creature" on the top, is it designed to frighten small children? And it is dishonest, the pendulum, the escapement, they have nothing to do with he time keeping, the whole thing is little more than a computer controlled automata. And whilst I am at it, strictly speaking it is not a "clock" because it does not strike the hours, it is a timepiece.
That is the most amazing thing I have ever seen.
Stunningly beutiful
That thing is hideously ugly
=) aahahahah la lahaahahahahaha
The engineering genius that this amazing timepiece embodies pushes all my happy buttons. :3
What a disgusting looking thing, truly satanic...
Brilliant.
Awesome. It'd suck to try and sleep with that shit in the room though.
Love the visual representation of the chronophage (eater of time).
I'll take one in silver xD
Not something you'd want in your room or an old peoples home with all that clunking and whirring. Sounds like an evil robot!
Its not for sale, my dad built this one and is currently building another one to put in our House in the Isle Of man. He will be building 1 or 2 more which will be sold, but for several million pounds.
Magnificent clock!! I showed this video to my 3 y.o. grandson and he was truly fascinated by it. I must check it out in the flesh if I get back to the UK
Beautiful! A lovely fusion of traditional clockwork with the led lights as opposed to "display". Strange the way the clock behaves whenever striking the hour - it appears to dance to and fro.
beautiful
What a wonderfully creative way to tell the time! The creature, although not attractive to my eye, is fantastic to behold. The membrane over the eye that shuts every now and then, plus the system set up so that the lights appear to move. The whole piece is incredible, applause for the creator!!
Impressive. 5 stars.
theres a steampunk to it ..
@SpunkyBlunderbus FUCK YOU!
LOL "...celebrate the release of the Chronophage and relative time onto the unsuspecting citizens of Cambridge." Aw! I wish I was there. This is a beautiful clock both aesthetically, and most definitely metaphorically.
I usually use digital clocks, because the ticking just gets irritating. But I'd make an exception for this. I want a little one on my desk!
@blueplant66: what an uneducated moron...
