| It is well known what the Clock-Tower at Ludwig Bastion looks like, and how it has happened that the minute-hand shows hours, and the hour-hand shows minutes: so that sailors could see the hour from a distance, and minutes were less important. However, this is a story that we need not take for granted! Dušan Baša, who could ignore reality in favour of beauty, conceived a new time continuum in which time recording took reverse direction. The Reversed Clock was an instrument that turned the Fortress into a magic island of silence, cypresses and stone. When Baša was persistent enough, and the Reversed Clock went on tick-tocking, the Fortress used to see fish swimming in, sea shells breathing and birds landing thereon. The deserted stone shacks would get inhabited with calm-eyed goats, and the force of life would burst the scented pineapple fruits. |
