Grandfather Time

2005

2’w X 7’ h X 1’6”d

 

“Grandfather Time” is a grandfather sized rolling ball clock.  The clock itself is a spring wound movement.  Every fifteen minutes the clock triggers a switch that releases a ball down the track.   The track runs from the top to the bottom of the sculpture.  As the ball makes its way to the bottom it strikes a single chime.   The clock chimes an additional bell sounding out the hour on the hour.  The balls that roll the course are one inch clear acrylic balls.
