Aspiral Clocks - Neatorama

The Aspiral Clock is a new type of clock developed by two London-based tinkerers, Will Aspinall and Neil Lambeth. The entire clock itself turns slowly over a twelve-hour period and a loose ball inside marks the current time.

If you mean the thing next to the 12, I assumed that was the exit hole for the red ball, not another (clear) ball...

Nice concept, but why does the picture on the Neatorama blog differ from all on the orig. site? What got me interested was that the "clear" sphere on the Neatorama site seems to be defying gravity???

What's up with that?

Maybe it's a hoax...

Neatest thing I have seen all day. When can we expect you to carry it in your store?

The use of technical jargon can speed communication between two people where the jargon compresses a lengthy description into a single term, but that depends on both of the people in the exchange having the vocabulary to compose and break down that jargon; if one of the people in the exchange doesn't understand the jargon, then they either lose comprehension or, if they interrupt to ask for clarification, slow the communication below what using the longer, simpler descriptions would have taken.
