Welcome to The Infinity Program, a general discussion forum. As the founder, one of my goals is to maintain this community even as others fall to the wayside. Also, I want to encourage engaging conversation by regularly submitting new topics that contain thoughts and insights rather than just aggregated material (if even that).
If you are a first time visitor and want to know more about this place, read the “Guide,” “A Short History of the Forum,” and the highly entertaining “A Brief History of the Universe.” Alternatively, if you want to submit feedback, contact us.

 Andreas Dober's "Catena Wall Clock", posted by Hyperion, Yesterday (02 Sep, 2010, 12:38 PM)
First of all, thanks to sizteves, a member of a steampunk forum called The Smoking Lounge, for making me aware of this. Andreas Dober's is one among several contemporary wall clocks showcased in an article by Toxel.com, but it stuck out most to me even among other eccentric designs.

What interests me about the design even more...

Random Quotation
|
"Is the following number sequence random: 592653589793238462643383279? It not only looks random: it is random. But lacking in meaning? No. These are the digits of pi beginning with the fourth decimal place.
Random does not mean 'meaningless.' The scientific meaning of random is that something cannot be predicted with better accuracy than that predicted by statistics. The phenomenon is its own simplest description. Biological systems are far too complex to describe or predict mathematically. We have incomplete information, and significant events like climate change or asteroid impact are unpredictable."
-- Steven Dutch, "Top Ten Myths About Evolution"
