    While I like this clock, I find Glass Meat Clocks to be way cheaper, and also more tasty.

    That clock looks very, very breakable. Keep it away from all pets, children, and manboys like me.

    @mattycakes: Truly. That's the kind of clock that you buy, then put in a case, then put that case in a case, then lock that case in a vault. Then set up lasers around it.

    ....Or, you know, you don't buy it.

    In reply to Vase Clock Is Designed To Break When The Right Moment Comes
    I find the message of this product remarkably important, discursively speaking. Every time we use a product we are breaking it, just like this clock. It reminds me of an artwork by Chris Burden, called "Samson", which consists on a huge hydrauliuc jack connected to a gear box and a turnstile.

    " The 100 ton jack pushes two large timbers against the bearing walls of the museum. Each visitor to the exhibition must pass through the turnstile in order to see the exhibition. Each input on the turnstile ever so slightly expands the jack, and ultimately, if enough people visit the exhibition, Samson could theoretically destroy the building. Like a glacier its powerful movement is imperceptible to the naked eye. This sculptural installation subverts the notion of the sanctity of the museum (the shed that houses art)."

    Samson is currently assembled in a museum near my city (Belo Horizonte, Brazil), awesome experience. #clockvase

    I'm sincerely and incredibly surprised that nobody has slipped in a crack about Apple products yet... and the whole typical spiel about how "when they break, it's not a bug, it's a feature."

    ha, there. now you're not clever or funny for saying it. so... don't. #clockvase
