I used an old Canon optical image stabilizer lens [EF-S 17-85mm 1:4-5.6 IS USM] on an EOS 450D DSLR. With exposures of up to a 1/4 of a second, most of the images had to be discarded, and the remainder are very "grainy" / "noisy", but the pictures at least form a sort of record of the event...

Clock Knot by Mark di Suvero on the University of Texas campus, Austin Texas, August 26, 2009. The monumental sculpture Clock Knot is located on the northeast corner of Dean Keeton and Speedway, and stands 41 feet tall. Mark di Suvero (born as Marco Polo di Suvero) is an American abstract expressionist sculptor born in Shanghai, China in 1933 to Italian expatriates. He came to San Francisco, California in 1941, and attended the University of California, Berkeley. While working in construction, he was critically injured in a freight elevator accident and focused all his attention on sculpture.

The metronome clock art installation (apparently the hole in the middle aligns with the clock on the facade of Grand Central Station at the other end of Park Avenue.
With the Public Art Fund acting as a consultant, the developer Stephen M. Ross went through over 200 submissions before choosing “Metronome” by Kristin Jones and Andrew Ginzel. Installed in 1999, the $3 million dollar piece is meant to symbolize the intangibility of time.
The central component, measuring 100 feet high and 60 feet wide, is formed of an undulating brick wall emanating a dark circular void surrounded by gold leaf overlay that dissipates across the panel into gold fragments. Below, a massive rock juts out through the brick wall, and to the left on the glass façade, is a digital time piece which counts the twenty-four hours of the day while simultaneously subtracting the time remaining in the day. To the right, is the lunar timepiece, composed of a sphere set into a socket, which is synchronized to revolve with the phases of the moon.

New approach to the S2 clock project in evidence here.
So far the brief/analysis/specification pages are produced in much the same way as ever. The radical shift is in the generation of ideas approach. Here we borrowed an idea outlined in Kurt Rowland's 1968 book "The Shapes We Need". Amongst other things Rowland explores spatial relationships and really gets to the heart of aesthetics and visual beauty. Some things just look right and others don't. Why is this? Rowland seems to have a some good theories about this. This book was part of a series he released in the late 60's. I understand these textbooks were standard issue in Glasgow Secondary Schools Art Departments at the time. I don't know of any art teachers that used them much apart from my mother. Anyway this little card based exercise suited our purposes perfectly.
The current S2 course has seeen alot of changes over the last five years. We'll distribute the cours notes on the S2 Course page at: designandtechnologydepartment.co.uk in due course.

It was a non-working clock which I wanted to hang up for display. After a while, I felt something amiss. A clock is not a clock if it does'nt work! So I took it apart and do some fixing, to my surprise I managed to get it ticking again ! I was totally fascinated From there I got my second, third and so on....
