Here’s the deal – there is a sound that occurs every 30 seconds throughout the entire 13 minutes and 21 seconds.
It’s the same sound. This sound happens at
0:00
0:30
1:00
1:30
2:00
2:30
etc.
every 30 seconds until 13:00. So it’s like having 27 columns laid out in an outdoor temple, and you can just go in there and swirl around the pillars and get invisible, then reappear and stuff like that. That’s the fun of a rigid, rational, predetermined structure. The structure has already been made. So now you can ignore the structure or use it. Use the columns to play hide and seek or to get the velocity to shoot off into the sky for a while. Melt down underneath the granite bases and find some worms.
The thing about it is, it uses clock time, which actually can be rather useful.
When I think about rollerbladers and skateboarders I feel that I am witnessing a celebration of architectural barriers.
Put up MORE barriers. I bet there's someone who is figuring out how to group and jump them right now. C'mon guys - don't you remember when you were a kid with extra energy? These kids are the athletes of the future. Put up the barriers. And let the kids have some fun.
I can see the post X-Games banner now:
"The Richmond Annual Celebration of Architectural Barriers"
Proudly sponsored by the Richmond Department of Economic Development and the Henrico Division of Parks, Trees and Poured Cement.
There are other ways of counting and there are other kinds of time. Anyone who has seen the History Channel is aware that Einstein made a pretty good postulatulation that clock time is malleable. But for our purposes , it’s just fine.
So, I’m writing about CLOCK TIME and about ALL THIS OTHER STUFF
