with a lengthy textual description.
by the time you’re done reading the entire message, the time probably will have changed.

Sorry, but this idea has Art-Lebedev done a long time ago and much nicer. Look for "Verbarius"!

Hans Tan is actually criticizing the idea of time as an object whereas Art Lebedev is just designing one more new clock with just a funny twist. You should have a look at his 'Portrait of a lamp' and 'Vitrine of a vase' on his website , and learn from it.
