Numbers, clock hands and ticking sounds disappear, allowing us to contemplate time instead of enduring it.<br \/>\nAt first sight, Lash Clock appears like an indefinite and static object. But if you take a closer look, you can perceive a slight movement.<br \/>\nBy focusing a little more, you realize that fibers straighten up by slowly moving away one from the other.<br \/>\nGently brushing time, Lash Clock also fills the practical everyday clock function of reading time. Minutes can be read thanks to the gap created by a fiber that straightens up every second. Hours are marked by a slightly wider gap.<br \/>\nMore than reminding us about the time that has passed, Lash Clock invites us to lose ourselves in time itself.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Watch this video:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class='flex-video widescreen'><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bina Baitel - Lash Clock\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5zUbhCV15K4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>via I<a style=\"color: #999999;\" href=\"http:\/\/incrediblethings.com\/art-design\/weird-clock-tells-time-using-hair\/\">ncredible Things<\/a>, images via<span style=\"color: #999999;\"> <a style=\"color: #999999;\" href=\"http:\/\/luxurylaunches.com\/gadgets\/the-creepiest-clock-in-the-world-uses-hair-to-tell-the-time.php\">Luxury Launches<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What time IS it anyway?<\/strong><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"488\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16407\" src=\"https:\/\/peewee.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bina-baitel-lash-clock-2.jpg\" alt=\"bina-baitel-lash-clock-2\" \/>\n<p><strong>Creepy or Cool?
