Travel Info What do the numbers accumulating in union square, ny on the big billboard mean? Travel Tips oh that "clock"!!! it's the union square clock, it often confuses people because everyone is like "is that a clock or what" becuase it states the time, but also has a ton of mumbo jumbo of numbers. it was just a piece of art designed in 1999 by Kristen Jones and Andrew Ginzel, and it's called The Metronome. heres a little info about it: "How to read the clock 鈥?the Metronome -- on the art wall at 1 Union Square South? The 15 numbers of the digital clock display time going and coming relative to midnight. Read time going left to right and time coming in the opposite direction. So, if the clock reads 070437000235616 it means that it is 7:04 A.M. (7 hours and 04 minutes since midnight) and that there are 16 hours, 56 minutes and 23 seconds remaining until midnight. The three numbers in between are a blur of moving numbers." Source(s): picture: http://vjarmy.com/images/quartzdemo.png... Other Travel Tips Kind of a ugly art piece in my opinion. |
