No real story with this one, I felt like building and had enough spare pieces around to whip up something decent! I guess they could be some bizarre prototype toa that was discarded on Bara Magna before the MU launched, hence the overall unaligned/clockwork appearance. I think it turned out pretty okay, has lots of accidentally perfect fits between various shapes and parts.
Taking out my grandfather's clock that I inherit from my grandfather to get it clean & oil. The gears and mechanisms and design of the clock still amazed me every time I take it out of the case.
It still function flawlessly.
After 1945, Meccano Ltd. devoted its energies to expanding the Hornby Dublo electric trains product lines, but production of O-Gauge clockwork trains continued into the early 1960s. Other than painting its models in British Railways colours (as per one in this display), the company never updated or augmented the range.
Soho was developed as an urban area from the late 16th century onwards. The name Soho is thought to come from a 17th-century hunting and battle cry. From the 17th to early 20th century Soho was avoided by its rich neighbours in Bloomsbury and Mayfair and the area developed a reputation for prostitution, music halls, cheap food and shady dealings. During the 20th century, Soho became the centre of bohemian London with intellectuals, writers, artists and poets eating and drinking in Soho's many pubs and restaurants. Beatnik culture began here and Soho's Carnaby Street was a centrepiece for swinging London in the 1960s. Soho today has shed its seedy reputation, although there's still enough sex shops, burlesque shows and gay and lesbian bars to retain Soho's risqué vibe...

I'm on a Tom Robbins fling these days. The following quote, from Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, is the inspiration for this piece:
"...wouldn't the very knowledge that there are clockworks ticking away behind the wallpaper of civilization, unbeknownst to leaders, organizers, and managers (the President included), wouldn't that knowledge, suggesting as it does the possibility of unimaginable alternatives, wouldn't that knowledge be a bubble bath for your heart?"

Clockwork Robots
Doctor Who
Race: Clockwork Robots
Type: Mechanical droids
Home planet: None
First appearance: The Girl in the Fireplace
The Clockwork Robots were created by a spacecrew from the 51st Century. When the ship was damaged, vital machinery was destroyed so they began to use the crew's body parts instead.
They managed to travel through time windows so they could meet Madame de Pompadoure to use her brain, only when she was at the right age though.
They had strange smiling faces and long black hair for their trips to France but were actually glass humanoid figures operated by space age clockwork technology.
They would break any clocks in the room to disguise their arrival and would slice open the parts of people where the organs could be found by their blades and saws in their hands.
The Doctor freezed them with ice guns but finally defeated them by destroying the time window causing them to break down. The Doctor managed to get back however by Madame de Pompadoure's fireplace.
[jp:] shame for me for merely doing a monthly posting now :-(. all i wanted to say is hello/guten tag/ni hao/ to my flickr friends and thanks for sharing your great work!
ccccssss says: wow the original
Solitaire1 says: stunning, hope things are going in the direction and at a pace that embraces your style. All the best, and nice to see you with this great image
Janeys Journey says: Guilt is a wonderful thing if it will get you to post more. This is exceptional. I don't know how you do it.
Airchild says: Wow, this is worth the month's wait, Peter! Great work. It is very profound.... how many people surrender to the clockwork of time, or life? Most of the time, we fight it. Just a superb image you have created. Great idea!

Jaime gazed down at all the little cogs gears, and partly dismantled watches. Them being so tiny reminded her that she was yet so small. and that made her smile that she was apart of this clockwork of life.
"What is all this stuff?"
"Something that you shouldn't be touching. Now sit down before you break anything."
"But I wasn't--"
"Please just sit down." he implied once more, placing his coat on the hook to cover a gun.
The Palazzo Pubblico with the Torre del Mangia on Piazza del Campo in the historic city of Siena, seen from Via di Città, Tuscany, Italy
Some background information:
The Palazzo Pubblico was constructed as from 1297. The impressive building with its bell tower Torre del Mangia (built between 1325 and 1344) served as the seat of the Republic of Siena’s government and naturally became the focal point of Piazza del Campo. The outside of the structure is an example of Italian medieval architecture with Gothic influences. The lower story is stone while the upper crenellated stories are made of brick. The facade of the palace is curved slightly inwards to reflect the outwards curve of Piazza del Campo, where it is located.
Piazza del Campo is the principal public space of the historic center of Siena. It is regarded as one of Europe's greatest medieval squares and renowned worldwide for its beauty and architectural integrity. The twice-a-year horse-race, Palio di Siena, is held around the edges of the piazza. At this race ten horses and riders compete with each other, bareback and dressed in the appropriate colours, representing ten of the town's seventeen contrade resp. city wards. In 1169, a market place was established at the site. Until 1270, it was used for holding markets and fairs, while it subsequently evolved into the city’s second centre after Piazza del Duomo, Siena’s cathedral square.
With its about 54,000 residents, the city of Siena is the capital of the province of Siena in Tuscany. Siena is located about 70 km (44 miles) south of the city of Florence and about 180 km (112 miles) north of the Italian capital Rome. The town is situated in the central part of Tuscany, in the middle of a vast hilly landscape between the Arbia river valley (south), the Elsa valley (north), the Chianti hills (north-east), the Montagnola Senese (west) and the Crete Senesi (south-east). The city lies at 322 m above sea level.
Siena, like other Tuscan hill towns, was first settled in the time of the Etruscans (from 900 to 400 BC) when it was inhabited by a tribe called the Saina. The Etruscans were an ethnic group of advanced people who changed the face of central Italy through their use of irrigation to reclaim previously unfarmable land, and their custom of building their settlements in well-defended hill forts. In the time of the Emperor Augustus a Roman town called Saena Julia was founded at the site.
According to local legend, Siena was founded by Senius and Aschius, two sons of Remus and thus nephews of Romulus, after whom Rome was named. Supposedly after their father's murder by Romulus, they fled Rome, taking with them the statue of the she-wolf suckling the infants, thus appropriating that symbol for the town. Additionally they rode white and black horses, giving rise to the Balzana, or coat of arms of Siena with a white band atop a dark band. Some claim the name Siena derives from Senius. Other etymologies derive the name from the Etruscan tribe name Saina.
Under Roman rule Siena did not prosper. It was not sited near any major roads and lacked opportunities for trade. Its insular status meant that Christianity did not penetrate until the 4th century AD, and it was not until the Lombards invaded Siena and the surrounding territory that the town experienced prosperity. After the Lombard occupation, the old Roman roads of Via Aurelia and the Via Cassia passed through areas exposed to Byzantine raids, so the Lombards rerouted much of their trade between the Lombards' northern possessions and Rome along a more secure road through Siena. Siena prospered as a trading post, and the constant streams of pilgrims passing to and from Rome provided a valuable source of income in the centuries to come.
The oldest aristocratic families in Siena date their line to the Lombards' surrender in 774 to Charlemagne. At this point, the city was inundated with a swarm of Frankish overseers who married into the existing Sienese nobility and left a legacy that can be seen in the abbeys they founded throughout Sienese territory. Feudal power waned, however, and by the death of Countess Matilda in 1115 the border territory of the March of Tuscany which had been under the control of her family, the Canossa, broke up into several autonomous regions. This ultimately resulted in the foundation of the Republic of Siena.
The Republic existed for over four hundred years, from the 12th century until the year 1555. During the golden age of Siena before the Black Death in 1348, the city was home to 50,000 people. In the Italian War that lasted from 1551 to 1559, the republic was defeated by the rival Duchy of Florence in alliance with the Spanish crown. After 18 months of resistance, Siena surrendered to Spain on 17th April 1555, marking the end of the republic. However, a republican government of 700 Sienese families in the nearby town of Montalcino resisted until 1559. The new Spanish King Felipe II, owing huge sums to the Medici, ceded it to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, to which it belonged until the unification of Italy in the 19th century.
In 1798, Siena was shaken by an 8.5 magnitude earthquake and several private as well as public buildings (such as churches) were damaged heavily. In 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte’s forces occupied the town. Not before 1814, the French troops left. However, in World War II, Siena suffered only minor damage. Only the Basilika dell’Osservanza was almost completely destroyed during a US bomb attack on 23rd January 1944.
In 1995, its historic city centre has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Siena is also one of the Italy’s most visited tourist attractions as it is considered to be one of Tuscany’s and also Italy’s most beautiful towns. Unlike Florence that is regarded as a prime example of Renaissance architecture, Siena has preserved its medieval appearance and hence, is considered a treasure of Italien Gothic architecture.
Siena’s 17 urban districts, the so-called contrade, are named after animals and do each have an animal symbol. The streets of the particular districts have unique street lamps with the amulets of that particular animal on the street crossings — indicating the boundaries of a contrada. These districts were historically set up to supply troops when Siena fought to defend itself from Florence between the 13th and 15th century. Today, the urban districts are still kept alive by sentiments and a great mutual rivalry that finds its expression in the horse race Palio di Siena. Furthermore, it is noteworthy that the Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, Italy’s third biggest bank and also the oldest still existing bank around the world, has still its headquarters in Siena.
Guess who's back!?
Hey guys, just new sculpture from me. It's one of the my favorite heroes 'Clockwerk', from Dota2. Made some changes from original model, cuz don't have "right" pieces. So check it out, hope you'll like it)
Last night I went to the Citizen's Theatre to see A Clockwork Orange, for which I took the publicity photographs, this being one of them.
Despite being a fan of Kubrick, I've never seen the film and, despite being a fan of 20th century literature and science fiction, I've never read the novel (I started it today), and so watching the story unfold on stage was even more thrilling. Beautifully lit and designed, I wish I had been able to do the production photography as well.
It runs until Saturday night, 6th November. I warmly recommend it.
