Once upon a time we had come across a Melting Clock. Now check out this Shattered Clock!  According to the designer, the clock is a representation of  order and chaos, something which we realize almost everyday. When you look at the clock you can see the chaos, but what about order? For this picture ’12′ is the order. What actually happens is with time certain numbers become stable [that is they aren't broken any more]. This very character of the clock also helps you in reading the time.

You just need to locate the numbers that aren’t broken and the direction to which the minute-hand points, to know the time. So the above picture shows 12:10 while the one below shows 2:35. Designed by Igor Barbashin and Daria Volokhova, the whole clock works on thirty-one clock mechanisms. A demo of the clock can be seen here.
