52 muslin sacks, string, sand – Dallas, Texas

Bag Clock was an ongoing project involving different methods of measuring time. This clock was started on December 13th, 2003. Regular updates continued to measure the bags’ entropy. The clock was eventually destroyed by squirrels.

Nest Clock was my second clock to measure entropy. It did not last long because squirrels loved to play in it.
