What you see on the right there is the top of one of the strangest clocks in the world. I can't begin to describe it - you'll just have to go there and see it for yourselves.

Did I see this clock with you? Museum in Edinburgh?

Indeed you did! It's all about death and demons and angels and worms and all sorts of bizarre erotic activities.

...Oh, and you can use it to tell the time, too.

Browsing the internets I've found this rather scary-looking website which will tell you quite a lot about it.

I've got a picture like that somewhere (pre-digicam days)so I recognised it immediately. Was that on a Tuesday night? I was responsible for organising the Tuesday night concerts for a while, but I think this is just after I switched jobs within the museum. It's a fantastic clock. We recently had an exhibition with 8 further kinetic sculptures by Sharmanka.

This concert was on a Sunday or Saturday morning, I think. Some time around Easter as I recall. I had the crappy fortune to be at work at the time, but seeing as my office was only on Old Fishmarket Close it wasn't too far to come for a coffee break!

Ah, that would have been Easter Saturday. I remember arranging it before I left. It looked a bit bright to be a Tuesday night. We have concerts once a month on Tuesday night in front of the clock, but at Easter we had a special event. Hope you enjoyed the concert.
