Doomsday Clock

I found this article yesterday and immediatly had ideas about working this into the piece. I think it will be a nice counterpoint to the ideas about geological, natural time as well as another example of contructed, artificial timelines that keep getting adjusted to fit the current reality.
Of course I know this isn't actually a time keeping mechanism, but I think it's quite interesting that science has chosen the format of time as a thermometer for nuclear disaster.
Please read before Sunday's rehearsal
