Time to touch. The time that slips through your fingers, and at the end of the year is tightly wrapped around your neck with a warm knitted scarf - these are not at all beautiful poetic metaphors. More precisely, not only them. Watch, which clearly demonstrate how time passes and flows, but without showing either minutes or seconds, a Norwegian German woman, an industrial designer came up with Siren Elise Wilhelmsen … What are the practical benefits of them, you ask? Well, right before the New Year, a device called 365 Knitting Clock, will present you with a long knitted scarf. So if you don't have a grandmother who sits at the window with knitting and from time to time gives her beloved grandchildren either a hat, or mittens, or a sweater, and if there is no urgent need for neck insulation, you can wait 365 days and receive a two-meter scarf as a gift the color you ordered. Exclusive as no one else will have a year-long scarf tied with a wall clock.
In fact, 365 Knitting Clock is a 48-needle circular knitting machine that knits one row of loops in a scarf per day. And after a couple of weeks, it becomes clear how much time has passed - someone wasted, wasted on squabbles, quarrels, resentments, idleness or unnecessary nonsense, and who worked tirelessly, and in this case, all 48 needles. So it turns out that the scarf is knitted not only from threads, but also from our memories, emotions, thoughts, fears, joyful and sad moments - all that takes time.
Why do you need such a watch, what to do with it, and what's the point of waiting for a single scarf for a whole year, if you can knit it yourself in less than a week? The question is, in fact, rhetorical, since the 365 Knitting Clock is designed for people of a romantic warehouse who believe that thoughts are material, and time is tangible, and that every second is imprinted on the line of our life, leaves its mark, so why not in the form of a soft wool scarf?

Time Lapse: The Beauty of Canned Time in Alan Sailer's Photo
“Do not think down on seconds,” calls out the harsh Soviet song from the TV series “Seventeen Moments of Spring”, and compares the moments of time with bullets whistling at the temple. Without knowing it, the photographer Alan Sayler gave weight and concreteness to this metaphor: his strong point is high-speed, or, as it is more often called, slow-motion shooting of objects collapsing under the shots. And he made the right choice with the choice of the topic: these photographs brought him real popularity
