Inspired by the medieval astronomical clocks, and the ancient Antikythera mechanism, Khronos is a multicultural timepiece for the modern age.
Showing dates in the Gregorian, Hebrew and Islamic calendars, and the Buddhist and Japanese Eras, and tracking the position of the sun, moon and major planets round the sky at your current time and location or for chosen times and places, Khronos illustrates the changing relationship between our earthly calendars and the heavenly cycles on which they are based.
